Ok, there seem to be a bug somewhere.... look:

Case 1

Code:

errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo( element.css('backgroundColor','#000000') );
 }

Result:

FF: the error field is painted black (OK)
IE: the error field is painted black (OK)

--------------------------

Case 2

Code:

errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo( element.parent().css('backgroundColor','#000000') );
 }

Result:

FF: the TD containing the error field is painted black (OK)
IE: the TD containing the error field is painted black (OK)

--------------------------

Case 3

Code:

errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo( element.parent().parent().css('backgroundColor','#000000') );
 }

Result:

FF: the TR containing the error field is painted black (OK)
IE: the TD containing the error field is painted black
(WRONG) !!!!!!!!!!

--------------------------

Conclusion: IE doesn't seem to understand the second .parent().... it
doesn't select the TR. What can I do to fix this?
