Hi Jim,
I could have both opinion:
- As it is attach on an element what is the interrest of having data
staying inline and element disapear ?
- But as you say, if you want to keep data when the element is removed
from the DOM, because we know that it will be recreate.
When reading the prototype blog post {1], one purpose of this class is
used to avoid memory leak in IE, which seems to go in the direction of
removing data.
In the post, there is a link to $.fn.data and there, nothing is said
in API documentation of this function.
I think that this type of question is for should ask to our team at
