JQuery collapse table cells based on class

Question

Hi i have a table strcture for my menu, and i need to be able to collapse/expand the menu from level2, so that all level3 cells becone visible. My HTML is like this:

<table>
<tr><td class="level1"><a href="abc.html">First Item</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="level2"><a href="def.html">SecondItem</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="level3"><a href="ghi.html">Third Item</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="level3"><a href="jkl.html">Fourth Item</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="level3"><a href="mno.html">Fifth Item</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="level2"><a href="pqr.html">Sixth Item</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="level2"><a href="stu.html">Seventh Item</a></td></tr>
</table>

How do i, when i press the level2 item i only collapse/expand the level3 items following the level2 i pushed? I only want to do this for level2, not for level 1.

Have you considered using nested lists for the menu? Not only does it make you task easier, but also is the "better" structure (Keyword: tableless layouts).
