Hi fredBH, I find jquery much easier to use and code than prototype (actually I never did make any real progress with prototype)
Having said that the use of prototype is more widespread than jquery, and so there are more tutorials for prototype. heres some tutorials that I have found useful in the past http://docs.jquery.com/Tutorials http://15daysofjquery.com/category/tutorials/ http://dzone.com/rsslinks/the_10_minute_jquery_tutorial.html AFAIK prototype require more code than jquery and is generally not unobtrusive, I may be wrong about this and now that jquery 1.1.1 is out its more compact than before and faster than it was also there is the interface lib for jquery which is I think fully featured. It much easier to learn and code than prototype (IMHO) - and the jquery list is very active. For instance in cakePHP 1.2 I am finding some issues with using the paginator helper since it has code for prototype built in. With jquery this is not needed as you attach events to elements via classname or ids foreinstance. I have a jLink class which I use to change the content of a page. Below is the jQuery code that attaches the binds the code to anchors with // jLink - now add events$("a.jLink").click(function(event) { event.stopPropagation (); event.preventDefault(); jLinkCall(this.href); }); // ### Begin jLink Events ### function jLinkCall(jHref) { // extract the id from this.href var htmlDoc = new String(jHref); // CODE TO PROCESS THE HREF {WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO} ... // SLIDE UP THE MAIN DIV $("div#main").slideUp("fast").empty(); // REQUEST JSON CONTENT $.getJSON("/articles/data/" + htmlDoc,params,function(json) { // debug in firebug console.debug(json); ); } // END jLinkCall() in the time it has taken me to prepare this others have shed some light. I will be looking in to this information which I will be looking into myself. bake on !!
