jQuery is my preferred framework and the one I use in Rails (via the jRails plugin). But IMHO, the semantics of Prototype better fit that of jQuery's and that's why it is the default javascript library shipped with Rails. That shouldn't stop you though from using the javascript framework of your choice. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
