Hi, Are you familiar with http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxlibs/ ? It's Google's distribution network for many of the popular frameworks, jQuery included. It's fast, it serves files gzipped, and it provides proper headers. The idea is, if you use it to serve jQuery to your users, there's a good chance they wouldn't even download those files, as they probably already have them cached "forever" in their browsers.
Try explaining that to your client - if they choose to serve jQuery from the same location as many other websites do, they'll end up with less traffic *and* a better experience for their users. PS I'm in no way affiliated with Google :) On Fri, Aug 14, 2009 at 9:30 AM, braksa...@gmail.com<braksa...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I have written a small amount of jQuery for a client and they are > unhappy with the fact that jQuery contains code that isn't used on the > website, so they've told me to remove everything from jQuery except > for what I'm using (which is a selector with .find(), .hover(), > and .animate() ) > > I have checked jQuery trunk out of SVN and tried commenting out lines > in the make file which refer to .js files I am not using such as > ajax.js or support.js but as soon as I comment out one of these lines > and run the make, the jQuery no longer works. > > Has anybody done anything like this before and can give some advice on > cutting out the majority of functions? > > > > -- Лёня Хачатуров --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
