To set the html contents of matched elements using jQuery's .html() method, you would do it like this:

$("#myTable tr:eq(4) td:eq(3)").html("new text")

Well I tried:

$("#myTable tr:eq(4) td:eq(3)").html = "new text";

and, while it gave no error, it also produced no result.

Any other ideas?

I am (very) new to jQuery, and I have what I think must be a simple
question.

Without jQuery, I would write:

var oCell = document.getElementById('myTable').rows[5].cells
[2].innerHTML = "something new";

but I do not understand how to write this same line in jQuery.

Thanks to anyone who can help.
