title: Selecting all empty <td> with specific class and removing the parent <tr> via JavaScript
body: <p>I have a very large HTML table with many rows. The rows are filed in by variables set in javascript from a response from my database. If the database responds with " " the variable is set to " ". I would like to find this and remove an entire parent row if true in JavaScript.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried the below code but I don't think I am selecting the correct cell. I marked all of the rows with the 'row' class and the cell that may be empty with the 'emptytd' class in an effort to make it easier to select. Thanks in advance!</p>
  
  <pre><code>                var something =  "&lt;tr class='row'&gt;" +
                                   "&lt;th&gt;AA03&lt;/th&gt;" +
                                   "&lt;td&gt;" + aa03TrainTaskNm + "&lt;/td&gt;" +
                                   "&lt;td class='emptytd'&gt;" + aa03DueDt + "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;";
  
  $('#something').html(somthing);
  $('#myModal').modal("show");
  $('td.emptytd:[value=" "]').parents('tr.row').hide();
  </code></pre>
