I have the following:

```
$(function(){
   $table = $('#print_types table');
});

```

Is it possible to do something like this:

```
$(function(){
   $($table + ' tr:last > td:first').after('something');
});

```

Since I'm caching a table element, how can I manipulate the table like I showed above? Normally I would have written it like this:

```
$(function(){
   $('div#print_types table tr:last > td:first').after('something');
});

```

The problem is I have a bunch of these statements and is the reason why I cached the table.
 I tried doing what I did, but I get an error. Am I missing something here?
