[jQuery] Re: $(document).ready() vs $(function () {});
Hi Shawn, They're functionally equivalent. The only difference is that $ (function() {}); is shorter and $(document).ready(function() {}); is, at least to me, more intuitive. --Karl Karl Swedberg www.englishrules.com www.learningjquery.com On Oct 21, 2008, at 12:56 AM, Shawn wrote: I am seeing more and more references to using the $(function() {}); format for the ready method. Is there a compelling reason for this? Or will $(document).ready() perform as well? Or perhaps I'm mis-understanding what the newer format is being used for? Thanks for any tips. Shawn

you are also using $.fn.ready(function(){ }); this is the most direct way to use it
