I'd like to throw in my voice in support of Christof's call for keeping things like this out of jQuery proper. To me 'doing different things should look different'. When i see raw ajax calls and such hanging off $ that looks wrong, as I think of $ signifying that I'm selecting and manipulating the DOM. If I'm doing something that doesn't have to do with DOM selection, I shouldn't see the $ in my code, because that's what I associate it with, and anything else interrupts the visual texture of my code. -Stephen _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
