I didn't know that, but I do have a related question if you don't
mind.
I prefer to use...
$('<input type="button" id="some-id" value="yes">');
...instead of...
$('<input type="button">').attr({'id':'some-id', 'value': 'yes'});
It works fine, but so many people choose to use the second method.
Is there anything wrong with the way I do it?
