[Standup][SG] 2011-11-30 – Deprecations in jQuery 1.7

Pivotal Labs
Tuesday, November 29, 2011

Helps

“We have some DOM that looks like this: <div><span /><a /></div>. We can style the a which follows a span with the CSS rule span + a, but it appears there’s no rule to style the span if it’s followed by an a.”

  • This is more of a sad face than a help.

Interestings

  • As part of jQuery’s slimming down effort, in the 1.7 release non-standard event properties are no longer copied from the native event object to the jQuery event object. Certain plugins may not be aware of this change yet.

  • Along the lines of jQuery 1.7, .live() is also being deprecated. Please use .on() and .off() in its place.
