The issue I am having is:

How do I go from a variable pointing at an element to using CSS selectors?

I want to make this work:

function highlight(table)
{$(table " > :even").toggleClass('highlight');}

where table is a reference to a table element.

I don't want answers that tell me to use $('#table') because that defeats the point of the generality I am trying to make.

Thanks
