Finally an article on jquery. I love jquery bc I can understand what the crap is going on. It's so clean. I like that selectors return more than 1 element, that's what they should do just like CSS. It's easy to say .each. Anywho I started with moo.fx then did mootools for a while but jquery is so clean and I can understand it! and the documentation is fantastic. Dude jquery rules!

I've found that it's crucial to have extensive help when learning a new technology. The jQuery site delivers and this has certainly helped me to get to grips with, and enjoy, this magnificent framework. You’re absolutely right about the documentation.

You explain everything very thoroughly, but not confusing. I have mostly used jQuery and Mootools for all my javascript needs anyways, so you sticking with those 2 frameworks works nicely for me!I really liked your '<a href="http://davidwalsh.name/mootools-12-tooltips-customize" rel="nofollow">Customizable Tooltips</a>' tutorial. Any chance you can port that to jQuery?Also, the smoothscroller effect that you have <a href="http://davidwalsh.name/mootools-onload-smoothscroll" rel="nofollow">here</a> and <a href="http://davidwalsh.name/fluid-anchors-smooth-anchors-using-mootools" rel="nofollow">here</a>, can you port this effect to jQuery?Thanks for the great effort! Hello David,

I really liked your ‘Customizable Tooltips‘ tutorial. Any chance you can port that to jQuery?

Also, the smoothscroller effect that you have here and here, can you port this effect to jQuery?

Thanks for the great effort!

I have been thinking of trying jQuery for while too, mostly, like you, to have it under my belt. Thanks for the post.
