[jQuery] Re: Difference between .bind() and .click()
Is there any performance difference at all? Say between using .hover vs. binding to mouseenter and mouseleave?

Not really. hover is theoretically just a very tad bit slower because internally, hover is calling mouseenter and mouseleave: hover: function(fnOver, fnOut) { return this.mouseenter(fnOver).mouseleave(fnOut); } On Apr 6, 1:56 pm, Nikola nik.cod...@gmail.com wrote: Is there any performance difference at all?

But slower by 1 function call 1 time. I'd call that negligible unless you're developing for a pocket watch. --Erik On Mon, Apr 6, 2009 at 5:08 PM, James james.gp@gmail.com wrote: Not really. hover is theoretically just a very tad bit slower because internally, hover is calling mouseenter and mouseleave: hover: function(fnOver, fnOut) { return this.mouseenter(fnOver).mouseleave(fnOut); } On Apr 6, 1:56 pm, Nikola nik.cod...@gmail.com wrote: Is there any performance difference at all?

[jQuery] Re: Difference between .bind() and .click()
.bind enables you to pass variables into the callback function via the e.data attribute in the event. $(document).bind('click', {'foo': 'bar'}, function(e) { console.log(e.data.foo); }); Can't do that with the .click shortcut.
