[jQuery] Re: convert code from prototype

[Mike Alsup]

jQuery doesn't have built-in OO class support, but you can easily
continue to use the Prototype idiom.  You would just include the Class
def:

var Class = {
 create: function() {
   return function() {
     this.initialize.apply(this, arguments);
   }
 }
}

And then use it the way you're accustomed, making minor changes to the $ usage:

var Multi = Class.create();
Multi.prototype = {
  options: {
      max : -1
  },
  initialize: function(el, options) {
      //this.setOptions(options);
      this.fld = $(el)[0]; // <-- note change here
  },
  convert: function(v) {
      return v.replace(/\\/g,'/');
  }
};

var m = new Multi(el);


I think this would work.
