@3NexJan 13.2012 — #You say you want it to hide "the link", not the td? Your selector $('td a[href=http://www.url.com]') captures the link, so you should remove the parent() part of your line.
Also i think you should add quotation marks $('td a[href="http://www.url.com"]')

Well that WAS the reason why it wasn't working before, i told you in the post before that you have to add quotations.
There are also a lot of other rules and ways to select links that just end with a certain string, begin with a certain string or just contain it. You don't always have to specify the whole value of href. Might come in handy when you only want to address, say, local links, https links, links to images, all kinds of crap...
