jQuery 1.0.2

Posted on by

jQuery 1.0.2 is now ready for consumption! This release is a huge bug fix release – and it is highly recommended that you upgrade right away. As always, if you spot a bug, please add it to the bug tracker.

In addition to having a better test suite, a big push for this release was to have better cross-browser compatibility for common tasks (such as AJAX operations). Functionally, however, no major features have been added to this release (although, expect some new code come 1.1).

I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce everyone to Jörn Zaefferer. Much of this release was made possible by him. He’s responsible for completely overhauling the test suite (it now has over 260+ tests!) and for fixing the majority of the current bugs and enhancements (over 60 of them!). If you want someone to thank for this release, it should be him.

    Excelent,
    I do have a suggestion, In ajax returned HTML it would be nice if any tags are automaticly exected on the ajax resolve.
    i have jerry-rigged for now( working perfectly, and only took me 3 days :P) it but it would be nice if jQuery could support this nativly.

    I’ll submit this to the bug tracker if not already there.

    Above Comment is missing a word.

    As Posted: In ajax returned HTML it would be nice if any tags are automaticly exected on the ajax resolve.

    It Should Be: In ajax returned HTML it would be nice if any <script> tags are automaticly exected on the ajax resolve.

    Sorry for the double comment.
