Ahoy Matey! Do you know what today is? It’s Talk Like a Pirate Day! Before the jQuery team weighed anchor and ran for the grog, we left a treasure chest on the jQuery CDN filled with beta versions of jQuery 1.11 and 2.1. Here be the treasure map to the bounty: http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0-beta1.js http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.0-beta1.js Don’t forget … Continue reading →

It’s nearly Independence Day here in the USA, so we’re delivering something fresh off the grill: jQuery 1.10.2 and 2.0.3. These releases fix a few pesky bugs that have been reported over the past month, but the list is refreshingly small. Since some of the bugs spanned both the 1.x and 2.x branches we’re releasing … Continue reading →

A new release already? It’s only been a week! Yes, because you deserve it. We’re greatly encouraged by all the people who upgraded and found our well-hidden “we completely hosed relative animations” easter egg. This release restores += animations and friends to their former glory, plus it fixes a few smaller bugs that were reported. … Continue reading →

It’s a wonderful day for a software release. Such a wonderful day, we’re doing two software releases! Today it’s jQuery 1.10.0 and jQuery 2.0.1 making their debut — five years to the day after jQuery 1.2.6 was released. A simultaneous release isn’t always easy, but it can be very satisfying. The team is certainly satisfied … Continue reading →

Today the team is releasing jQuery 1.10 Beta 1. This release should be a relatively easy upgrade for any code that has already been updated for jQuery 1.9/2.0, and it doesn’t introduce a lot of breaking changes–at least not that we know of! That’s why we do beta releases. You tell us. It may seem … Continue reading →

They say there are no second acts in software … well, there are always second acts in software. Especially when the first act bombs. With that in mind, version 1.2.1 of the jQuery Migrate plugin has arrived. It can be used with either jQuery 1.9 or jQuery 2.0. This minor update addresses regressions created by … Continue reading →

You asked for it, you got it: jQuery 2.0 has arrived! As promised, this version leaves behind the older Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 browsers. In return it is smaller, faster, and can be used in JavaScript environments where the code needed for old-IE compatibility often causes problems of its own. But don’t worry, … Continue reading →

We’re coming down the home stretch for the release of jQuery 2.0! Today sees the release of Beta 3. To paraphrase Dirty Harry: I know what you’re thinking. “Is Beta 3 gonna break my code?” Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement we may have lost track of things and introduced some … Continue reading →

The next beta of jQuery 2.0 has arrived! This beta has several changes and tweaks based on the feedback we received from those of you who generously tested the first beta. We really need you to test this version as well and let us know what still needs to be done. We believe this version … Continue reading →

Reading documentation, blogs, and forums are useful ways to learn how to use jQuery, but there is ultimately no substitute for actually writing code. That’s why we’ve been collaborating with Code School to create Try jQuery, a brand new introductory course with video and interactive examples to make it easier to take those first steps. … Continue reading →
