I agree with Mike about the importance of readable code. The jQuery
core used to have a lot more of this sort of trick than it does now. I
like it and understand it much more now.
If I recall correctly, indexOf() is quite a bit faster than test().
Also, this bit from Crockford's JavaScript: th
I don't care much for the single var with multiple variables at the top of a
function. I like seeing the "var" on a variable where it is first used. It
makes it easier for me to see that there actually *is* a "var". But you're
right, it does save a few bytes. Maybe not much after the code is gzippe

if ( str.indexOf(".") >= 0 )
by
if ( !~str.index
