jQuery parent of a parent

by

The best way would probably be using closest:

$(this).closest('tr');

Check out the documentation:

Closest works by first looking at the current element to see if it matches the specified expression, if so it just returns the element itself. If it doesn’t match then it will continue to traverse up the document, parent by parent, until an element is found that matches the specified expression. If no matching element is found then none will be returned.
