Popup vs div

JavaScript
1 
$("tbody#mtbody td").click(function(e) {
var currentCellText = $(this).text();
alert(currentCellText); //for testing
$.get("getowner.php", { getownerID: currentCellText },
   function(data){
   window.opener.$('input#ownerid').val(data.ownerid);
   window.opener.$('input#petowner').val(data.petowner);
   window.opener.$('input#ostreet').val(data.ostreet);
   window.close();
  },"json");
});

This code WORKS to return values from a popup window, and in that popup I have a php table.

If I load the same exact table inside a div within the popup I can’t figure out how to return the values. Help please.

I believe this line:

$("tbody#mtbody td").click(function(e)

would need changing, I can’t figure out how.
Div is named ownerdiv
