Thanks a lot. The second response really helped me as I'm not so
versed in hard core JavaScript. Obviously not being that well versed
in it is hindering my ability to understand plug-in code, ability to
distinguish between standard JavaScript notation/features vs. jQuery
in the same file, and ability to understand jQuery a bit also.
migrane every day until I get this stuff down, not as simply as
everyone says. Yea jQuery is simple once you are a master at
JavaScript and master of the jQuery language! I love that claim.
