I have been using a resource that takes advantage of the html5 offline storage capabilities of the iPod/iPhone version of Safari to install itself as a standalone jQuery Reference app that is current with jQuery 1.4. I think it has the capability to update itself after installation too.
http://www.mrspeaker.net/2010/01/14/jquery-iphone-reference/ I don't know if it works on other smartphones or not but I imagine that you could reference it online, even if it wasn't possible to install it. As far as a favorite, I like the jQuery UI Tab plugin http://stilbuero.de/jquery/tabs_3/ Tom On Thu, Feb 4, 2010 at 12:29 PM, Hagedon, Mike <[email protected]> wrote: > This doesn't answer the question; more I just want to point out for anyone > else learning jQuery that I've found the API reference at visualjquery.com to > be helpful.
