Select first item in table

Question

I have a spry:region that feeds data to another spry:region
and spry:detailregion. The setup works fine, but the first
dsJobCategories TD doesn't appear selected via CSS. It pipes in the
data to the subsequent spry:region and :detailregion without
showing up as selected. The code is below. Can anyone tell me what
I'm doing wrong?
<div id="Jobs_DIV">
<span spry:region="dsJobCategories">
<h2>2: Choose a Subcategory</h2>
<table width="200">
<tr spry:repeat="dsJobCategories">
<td spry:if="{jobcount} == 0" class="disabled"
spry:setrow="dsJobCategories">{name}</td>
<td spry:if="{jobcount} &gt; 0" spry:select="select"
spry:hover="hover" spry:selectgroup="jobs"
spry:setrow="dsJobCategories">{name}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</span>
</div>
<div id="Job_List_DIV">
<span spry:region="dsJobList">
<h2 spry:if="{ds_RowCount} == 0"> </h2>
<p spry:if="{ds_RowCount} == 0">Please choose a
category at the left. Categories with no jobs are greyed
out.</p>
<span spry:if="{ds_RowCount} != 0">
<h2>Job List:</h2>
<table width="200">
<tr spry:repeat="dsJobList">
<td spry:select="select" spry:hover="hover"
spry:selectgroup="jobs"
spry:setrow="dsJobList">{title}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</span>
</span>
</div>
<div id="Jobs_Detail_DIV" spry:detailregion="dsJobList"
spry:if="{ds_RowCount} &gt; 0">
<h2>Job Detail:</h2>
<p><b>title:</b> {title}<br />
<b>description:</b> {description}<br />
<b>facility:</b> {facility}<br />
<b>referencenumber:</b> {referencenumber}
</div>

In your master part use managedForm.selectionChanged(this,
viewer.getSelection()) to notify other parts in the managed form that
the selection has changed.
