jquery jargon
Not going to tell you how long the code below took me to figure out:
//this is jQuery code
$(document).ready(function () {
$("input[@name='RadioGroup1']").click(function(){
alert('Chris- you spent a half day trying to get this to work!');
//Now do something constructive!
});
});

Anyway, one day our spinner will work on Safari. If you have any insight into this issue, let me know. Does the spinny work just fine on IE for you? Any of our forms in the Account or Edit pages that submit forms have buttons that turn into one with an animated spinner thing. That's what I'm referring to.
Also, sorry we don't format code very well in the blogs. Perhaps we could allow PRE tags, but not sure that alone would do it.
Jquery is a javascript framework. Meaning, simple things as capturing the click even for a form control that takes many lines of regular Javascript code can be done in only in a few lines. There's also some animation features and real time form validation. Also there is a ton of plugins: http://plugins.jquery.com/.
I am still getting my hands dirty with javascript, but it's a great alternative to doing everything in flash or server side. I'll look into the spinny thing and see if I can't find anything.
