jQuery: Count specific character in a table column
<p>I have a HTML table where each row has two columns. First column is a capital letter and the second one is a brand name, like so:</p>

<p>A | Amazon</p>

<p>A | Apple</p>

<p>B | BMW</p>

<p>C | Chanel</p>

<p>etc. But whenever there are two brand names that has the same first capital letter I would like the table to look like this:</p>

<p>A | Amazon</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;| Apple</p>

<p>B | BMW</p>

<p>C | Chanel</p>

<p>In other words, if there are more than one instance of each capital letter I would like to display only the first one. If I applied a class to the first column, is there a way I could achieve this using jQuery?</p>
