I’m curious how you handle updates to things like their ColdFusion frameworks, Javascript libraries, etc?? I’m using JQuery on several projects now and each project I think is using a different version of JQuery.
Do you include your framework and library files in each project?
Do you keep these files in a ‘core’ directory [...]

jQuery 1.2.2 Released - Happy Birthday jQuery!
January 15, 2008 – 8:34 am
Looks like jQuery 1.2.2 is out today! And it’s turning 2.
The major changes are:
300% Speed Improvements to $(DOMElement)
.ready() Overhaul: Uses Diego Perini’s non-document.write() technique, now wait for CSS to be ready, can now watch for the document ready event via the traditional .bind()
.bind(”mouseenter”) / .bind(”mouseleave”)
Complex :not()
Accepts Headers
Event API: jQuery.event.special setup teardown handler
You know it’s [...]
jQuery - Altering Layout Based On Dimensions
January 2, 2008 – 2:06 pm
So I'm working on this huge checklist application and I've built the interface with jQuery. It's basically a big accordion, with each category having the ability to expand and show search topics within.

I'm talking about contributing to 'the community'?
I'm on several mailing lists for a variety of open source projects and inevitably someone posts a note complaining about this or that, lack of documentation, examples, etc. The developer(s) usually reply by saying "Volunteer and do [...]

Tonight I spent a bit of time working on my wife's new site for Your Door & More. I wanted to implement some sort of image rotation. I was going to crank out a cheezy animated GIF but started digging around the jQuery site and found the Cycle plugin.

After All These Years IE Still Sucks. Debugging Javascript In IE7?
December 3, 2007 – 4:31 pm
So I've got a huge page full of lovely jQuery script and it all works fine in Firefox.
In IE - not so good. Occasionally it'll give me a little error in the lower left status bar. But that's about it. I'm digging around looking for a Firebug for IE but so [...]
Fetching Data With jQuery
November 30, 2007 – 1:53 pm
I've been doing more and more with jQuery and thought I'd post a few examples. In my current project I'm building a really huge form for people to fill out if they want to work from home. The form needs to be approved by different people depending on your division. So on [...]
