Retrieving the column number clicked?

[Mick White]

<thead>
<tr id="header">
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortTable('rhinos',this.id,sortNumerical) ;" id="col0" >#</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortTable('rhinos',this.id,sortByPosition );" id="col1">P</a></th>
<th><a href="#"
onclick="sortTable('rhinos',this.id,sortByLastName s);"
id="col2">NAME</a></th>

.....
</tr>
</thead>

Is it possible to programatically determine which column is clicked? I
am presently parsing the id.

Thanks, Mick.

Table cell objects have a property called "cellIndex", which is the
index of the cell in the row's cell collection (and the column, if
each cell is only one column wide)

Thanks Lasse, unfortunately this property always returns "0" in Safari
1.0.2, works in every other browser that I have, though.
