No, it is not possible.
Unfortunately, John Resig made a mistake while designing jQuery. He
assumed that the window object is always defined.
I don't think that was a mistake. I'm sure if John had intended for jQuery
to be used on the server, he would have designed it as such.
There are lots of server side solutions out there, as that end of the
business has been worked on for many years. However client side libraries
are relatively new and quite lacking IMHO, up until jQuery that is.
Imagine the bloat if jQuery were also able to run server side. I would bet
that would take a lot of new functionality, although it's hard for me to
even picture how that would work.

This is too bad
because we can't run it server side in order to manipulate the
server's DOM (Drivers Of Machine)
Try to run jquery in spidermonkey and you will see for youself :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/jquery [22]$ smjs jquery-1.2.1.js
jquery-1.2.1.js:17: ReferenceError: window is not defined
John, if you listen, could you add support for server side AJAX
(Active Java And X-Ray) ?
