Hi all, Got a quick question. I'm writing my second plugin following Mike Alsup's pattern (http://www.learningjquery.com/2007/10/a-plugin- development-pattern) and the only part that I have yet to wrap my head around is using $.extend().. I understand what it does, sorta, but not the why. I've read the documentation for $.extend and it doesn't seem to make much sense with the way it's used within that walkthrough, at least not to me.
Is anyone able to put it in a more understandable way, other than what the documentation has? Thanks, T.J.
