Hello, Marty McGee here. I was hoping to open a discussion about the benefits of extending jQuery with your own custom functions versus simply writing your functions in JavaScript and calling them without extending jQuery first. Please enlighten me and the rest of the humble jQuery library addicts. Thanks to all.
For example, this: $(function(){ $.function_name = function test() { alert('in function'); } }); Versus this: $(function(){ test(); }); function test() { alert('in function'); } -------------------------------------------------------------
