Hide all table rows after a specific number?

Question

I'd like to write some code where it displays a complete listing for a year, but initially only show the first 6 weeks (so, 42 days) and then you can click a button to view the rest (no need for a toggle).

I was going to do this using PHP, and setting a class on each of the ones I'd want to hide, which is fine, I guess, I just wasn't sure if there was a more efficient way of doing it in jQuery.

Answer 1

$("table tr:gt(5)").hide();

will hide all of them after/greater than the sixth row.

Answer 2
