yes Adam that's an option if you don't want to type jQuery. each time you
uses something from the jQ Library.
Hope everyone understands whats going on, here is a little explanation:
Adam tests if jQuery is a valid object and ready to use:
if (jQuery)
If the is true he calls a self calling function and pases the jQuery Object.
The function parameter name is the $.
Within the function you have you're typical jQuery $ shortcut.
(function($) {
$.globalMethod();
$(selector).instanceMethod();
})(jQuery);
Thanks for for the snippet Adam.
Cheers
Sascha
