[jQuery] Re: find.click vs bind("click")

[spinnach]

.bind('click') is faster because you bind it directly to the element, 
.find() must first find the element inside the #jobinfo element and then 
bind the appropriate event..

there is no difference between .bind('click') and .click(), .click is 
just an alias for .bind('click').. and if i'm not mistaken, .click was 
taken out of the core since 1.1 (i may be wrong, i know some aliases 
were removed, but not sure which - so i just use .bind for everything :))..

What is the difference, advantage/disadvantage of these different methods:

bindEdit = function(){

bindEdit = function(){
$j('#jobinfo').find('#edit').click(function(){
            var linkval = $(this).attr("href");
            $j('#jobinfo').load(linkval, function(){

            });
            return false;
