Brandon - For 1.0 I snuck in a bunch of Prototype users really happy. I plan on releasing a complete Prototype compatibility module that will help Prototype users transition over to jQuery. For example, Prototype has Object.extend(), jQuery has jQuery.extend() - they work nearly identically.
I'm currently working to document more of these hidden functions to help improve the JavaScript code of users, in addition to the DOM functions. --John On 8/31/06, Brandon Aaron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm a long time prototype user and have had a love/hate relationship with > it.
