jQuery Zebra selector
<p>I have a CSS class called grid which I place on my tables. I want to Zebra strip my even rows so I use the following jQuery code</p>

<pre><code>$(".grid tr:nth-child(even)").addClass("even");
</code></pre>

<p>This basically says "Apply the css class even to any tr tag which has a parent (at any level) with a class of grid." The problem with this is when I have nested tables, the child table's tr tags will also get the even style. Since I did not specify the child table with a class of grid, I don't want it to pick up the zebra stripe. </p>

<p>How can I specify to only apply the even class on tr tags which are a direct descendant of the tag which has the grid class?  </p>
