You should use  first-child instead of  first   Sounds like you re wanting to iterate through them  You can do this using  each     Example      td first-child   each function         console log   this  text           Result   nonono nonono2 nonono3   Alernatively if you re not wanting to iterate      td first-child   css  background     000      JSFiddle demo

Use      tr   find  td first      js fiddle - this example has  text   on the end to show that it is returning the elements   Alternatively  you can use      td first-child       find   - jQuery API Documentation
