Hi, Smith,
The plugin, Metadata, is very interesting and looks very nice.. just
another question: is there any replacement for the
'javascript:function()' links besides using outside plugins, in ways
of either Javascript or jQuery?
I usually use javascript psudo links in making some AJAX calls,
something like
<div id="target"></div>
<a href="javascript:myfunc('a','b')">AB</a>
<a href="javascript:myfunc('c','d')">CD</a>
.............
function myfunc(var1, var2)
{
$('div#target').load('somepage.html', {v1 : var1, .... });
}
which works pretty well so far, but since it degrades poorly, I do
want to find a better way(or replacement) to achieve this..
Many thanks. :)
