jQuery times 4

(Posted on 14-Jan-09)

1. jQuery 1.3 is out the door.

http://docs.jquery.com/Release:jQuery_1.3
<snip from jQuery blog>

First, we have an excellent new release of jQuery ready for you to enjoy. The big features of this release are:

  • Sizzle: A sizzlin’ hot CSS selector engine.
  • Live Events: Event delegation with a jQuery twist.
  • jQuery Event Overhaul: Completely rewired to simplify event handling.
  • HTML Injection Rewrite: Lightning-fast HTML appending.
  • Offset Rewrite: Super-quick position calculation.
  • No More Browser Sniffing: Using feature detection to help jQuery last for many more years to come.

2. Sizzle

This is a brand new selector engine that is noteworthy inside and outside jQuery. Check it out at http://sizzlejs.com/ .

3. New API browser

 jQuery meets AIR... seems like AIR is becoming the source of a bunch of API browsers. http://api.jquery.com/ I want to know when someone is going to come up with a multi-window AIR app that supports as many APIs as we desire! :)

4. jQuery Foundation

 What do you do when you are to big for your shoes. Congratulations on growth and significance jQuery crews!!
