Hi all,
Got a question for you guys who're more knowledgeable than I am. I
followed Mike Alsup's plugin development pattern at
http://www.learningjquery.com/2007/10/a-plugin-development-pattern to
create a plugin for a project I'm working on. It's a suggestion/
tooltip plugin, which although they've been written many times before,
it was good experience in plugin-ifying my code so I can reuse it
easily later.
However, my question is regarding the placement of some of the code; I
have a block of code (the $(".suggestion") block) that I'm not sure of
where it needs to be. It's honestly something that only needs to be
called once to bind the event, but I don't want to have to place it by
itself within a page; I want everything contained within the script
for the plugin..
and just now thinking about it, could I place it above the (function
($) { closure? Since script tags mingle together once they're loaded
on the page, I assume that would work. Any thoughts or suggestions
here would be greatly appreciated. Here's a link to the plugin code:

It's in the Javascript tab.. I've commented the area I'm curious
about.
Thanks!
