[thelist] onclick in table row

yeah, but the source has much more rubbish in it than is necessary to 
understand the problem. so, (badly) edited for purposes of simplicity.

if i click on the table row, the page reloads with additional 
information/options for that particular record. the tds contain links to 
other options (some of which are also available via clicking on the tr, 
some of which aren't).

sorry, as explained in the original email, the highlight is done via the 
css. i didn't think it was relevant to the problem to include it. the issue 
is with the priority some browsers give to the tr link over the td links.

unfortunately this is legacy code originally part of oscommerce (generally 
solid open source shopping solution). so it works, but this aspect is not 
cross-browser compatible (and therefore creating headaches for my mac-based 
client).

thanks for your help!
