[Proto-Scripty] Traverse table cells

[KenB]

I am new to prototype and need to learn how to traverse an html table
and hide some columns. The only id I have is table id or the class it
is associated with. Can anyone give me an example?

Here is what I am trying to accomplish.

 var tbl =
document.getElementById('ctl00_m_g_0ab7c148_0e6c_49e4_bc03_fd1064ca4b41_ctl00_Grid');

          if (tbl != null){

           var rows = tbl.getElementsByTagName('tr');

           var cols = rows[0].getElementsByTagName('th');
           cols[0].style.width = '300px';
           cols[1].style.display = 'none';
           cols[2].style.display = 'none';

           //Now loop through the data rows and hide specific cells
           for (var row = 1; row < rows.length; row++) {
               var cels = rows[row].getElementsByTagName('td');
               //alert(cels[1].valueOf);
               cels[0].style.width = '300px';
               cels[1].style.display = 'none';
               cels[2].style.display = 'none';
           }

      }

Thanks!

Ken
