How can I find the parent tr of a td using jQuery?

Viewed 94062

I have the following:

    tdToPad = tds.filter('[id^="input_Title_"]')
    pad = 60;
    tdToPad.css('margin-left', pad);

What I would like to do is to remove any class that starts with "X-" and give the row that is contained by "tdToPad" a class of "X-" + pad.

Something like:

<tr class='X-60'>
   <td>
   </td>
</tr>

Being that toToPad refers to the td element in a row. How can I give the parent tr the class "X-" + pad ? I think I need something like the following but if that's the correct way to do it then how can I remove elements already there with a class of "X-" somevalue and then give this element the correct class?

tdToPad.Parent('tr')
