digg - issue #1

jquery.class.js references $j instead of jQuery


Posted on Oct 21, 2008 by Helpful Ox

It looks like you guys at Digg must be using the global $j to access the jQuery object. That's cool and everything shorter syntax yadda yadda but... users who have just downloaded jQuery for the first time like moi might find the resulting errors a little confusing.

You might want to either add a note for users or rename $j to jQuery in your scripts.

Thanks for releasing this! I've been developing on Mootools for the last few years and I was definitely missing the simple class constructors and inheritance of Mootools.

Fixed in r87 on Class' trunk. I totally forgot to remove those references to $j before our first release.

And thanks for the feedback, it's good to see this out in the wild :)
