How can I make my inner table show?

I have a table like this, all rows have the structure like 1st data row

<table id='table1'>
   <thead>
       <tr>...table headers...</tr>
  </thead>
   <tr>
       <td>xyz</td>
       <td>
           <table><tr></tr></table>
       </td>
   </tr>

   <tr></tr>
   <tr></tr>
   <tr></tr>
   ...
   ...
</table>

All those inside tables have some texts and images.

Initially, I use 

$('#table1').find("tr:gt(0)").hide();

to hide everything except header

Now I want to select say from row 1 to row 15 and unhide them. From another post, I know I can use $('#table1').children('tr').slice(1,15) to find those rows, but when I want to show them using 

$('#table1').children('tr').slice(1,15).show(1000);

all those inside tables are still not showing, but the text "xyz" is showed Am I missing something here?

The tr are not .children of table, but descendants because they are inside an implicitly created tbody element. Try with .children() of the tbody

http://jsfiddle.net/utmXa/4/

$('#table1 > tbody').children().hide();
$('#table1 > tbody').children().slice(1, 15).show(1000);
