myself and some others, I forget who, have discussed this.
I had a need to do something like what you also need, and we came up with
something like
table ie.element_before( :table , :text_field , :id , "my_text_field")
this would return the :table that is immediately before the :text_field wit :id
"my text field"
I never got as far as updating it to work with 1.5 though, so its not checked
in :-( And it may be entirely different to what this is, as I'm going off memory
I'll try and post it as it is tonight, but remind me if I dont do it in a day
or 2 ;-)
