jQuery 1.4 Hawtness #6, with Paul Irish

Watch as Paul walks you through the improvements and additions to the API in jQuery 1.4. He demonstrates with real-world examples how you’ll put these new features to use, along with recommendations on performance and useful hints on the internals.

In the last installment of Hawtness, Paul covers the things that could potentially break, and walks through each item in detail. If you’re trepidatious about upgrading your 1.3 to 1.4.1, never fear. In addition to this overview, a compatibility plugin is available to those who want a transition as smooth as Jif Creamy™. The code discussed in ep #6 is viewable and forkable on github
