{
    var addH=document.getElementsByTagName('td');       
    for( var i=0;i < addH.length;i++)
    {
        if(addH[i].addEventListener)
        {
            addH[i].addEventListener('click',addBold,false);
        }
        else if(addH[i].attachEvent)
        {
            addH[i].attachEvent('onclick',addBold);
        }
    }
}

function addBold()
{   
    var add=document.getElementsByTagName('td');        
    for( var i=0;i < add.length;i++)
    {
        var weightVal=add[i].style.fontWeight;
        if(weightVal!=900)
        {           
            add[i].style.fontWeight="900";
        }

            add[i].style.fontWeight="100";
        }
    }           
}

Solution

Your addBold routine is setting ALL td's. The following works. I wish I could give you a reference link, but I can't. I want that link myself.

[edit] This page works like I think you want it to. Does it work for you?
The "e" gets passed to the event handler. I wish I could say more.
Like I said, I'm looking for a reference on how this works. But it does.
