Hi,

You can do that using jQuery very easily,

Here[^] you can find solution.

Sample Code,

JavaScript

$("#table_ID td:contains('youSearchText')").html('YourTextToReplace');

Let me know if you have any other query,

Thanks

How about this pure javascript

HTML

<html>
<head>
	<script type="text/javascript">
		function Change() {
			var txt = parseInt(document.getElementById("txt").value)
			alert(txt);
			var tr = document.getElementById("tbl").getElementsByTagName("tr")
			tr[txt].getElementsByTagName("td")[0].innerHTML = "change me"
		}
	</script>
</head>
	<body>
		<table id="tbl">
			<tr><td>1</td></tr>
			<tr><td>2</td></tr>
			<tr><td>3</td></tr>
		</table>
		<input type="text" id="txt"/>
		<input type="button" id="btn" value="Change" onclick="Change();"/>
	</body>
</html>
