Get 2nd cell value from table row?

[harry]

I want to be able to read the value from the 2nd cell in a table row which
contains 5 cells.

The row ID is 'tr2' & I can get the row object using -

var x = document.getElementById('tr2');

How do I get hold of an individual cell's value?

Any links to good web sites showing how to traverse DOM objects?

thanks

Try this:

var text = x.cells[1].innerHTML;

var y= x.getElementsByTagName("TD")
var z=y.item(1).firstChild.data;
