One of the things we do very frequently is assign unique IDs to
elements for faster access later. Of course, this is really simple
and I'm wondering whether it would make a good addition to the
Element suite of methods:
Element.Methods.assignId = function(element) {
element= $(element);
if (!element.id)
element.id= "uniqeId_" + (arguments.callee._nextUniqueId+
+);
return element.id;
}
Element.Methods.assignId._nextUniqueId=0;
This can then be used as follows:
this.myElement= $(e).assignId();
.
.
.
var e= $(this.myElement)
I don't know whether this would be useful for anyone else, but I know
we'd use it.
