IDs are supposed to be, by definition, unique. They are there so that
scripting languages and CSS style rules can easily identify single
elements. If your markup has more than one element with the same ID
in it, then your markup is broken. If you have more than one element

Thanks Karl, Klaus and Gordon. I will try the approach and let u know.

Hi MorningZ,
Did not want to use this approach as, the tables can be added and

class=blahblahblah instead of id=blahblahblah
