How can I reference this element using document in Javascript

I need to dynamically change the src attribute (see snippet below). Please tell me how can I reference this using document in Javascript. I have limited Javascript exp.

<td width="150" height="198"><img border=0 width=150 height=76 src=http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-123908713209812348></td>

Can you modify the html? If the img tag had an id attribute, you could reference it by its id. For example:

<img id=myimage" border="0" width="150" height="76" src="http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-123908713209812348">

Open in new window

could be referenced in javascript by:

document.getElementById("myimage").src = "http://newurl";

Open in new window

I cannot add id attribute on the img tag but i can add it on the <td>

THIS IS POSSIBLE:
<td id="cellContainingImage" width="150" height="198"><img border=0 width=150 height=76 src=http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-1234567890></td>

The reason I can't add id attribute on img tag is because html for <img> tag is generated using Yahoo store tag.
