hide the whole column

hide the column which it is in. I have created.

My table is below;

<table id="tester" border='1'>
<tbody>
    <tr>
        <td>test1</td>
        <td>test2</td>
        <td>test3</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>test1</td>
        <td></td>
        <td>test3</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>test1</td>
        <td>test2</td>
        <td>test3</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>test1</td>
        <td>test2</td>
        <td>test3</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>test1</td>
        <td>test2</td>
        <td>test3</td>
    </tr>
</tbody>
</table>

And the Jquery I am trying to get working is below;

Any help would be appreciated.

To hide the whole column if one of its cells is empty, use this:

$.each($('td:empty'), function(){
  $('td:nth-child(' + ($(this).index() + 1) + ')').hide();
});

I think that youre looking for.

$.each($('table > tbody > tr'), function(){
  if($(this).find('td:empty').length>0){
    // You can hide
    $(this).hide();

    // Or Remove
    $(this).remove();

    // Or Fadeout and remove
    $(this).fadeOut(250, function(){$(this).remove();});
  }
});

Try this:

function hidecol2() {
    var cell = $('#tester > tbody > tr:eq(1) > td:eq(1)');
    if (cell.text() == '') cell.parent().parent().children().children(':nth-child(2)').hide;
};
