Use the closest() function.

$('#td-id').closest('table');

Using jQuery closest

Using the following example code

<table id="test">
    <tr>
        <td id="one">one</td>
    </tr>
</table>
<table>
    <tr>
        <td id="two">two</td>
    </tr>
</table>

$(document).ready(function(){

   var table = $("#one").closest('table');

});

See example here

You probably want something like

$("#myId").closest("table");

but I 'm not completely sure -- can you clarify or provide an example?
