[FX.php List] JavaScript, AJAX, jQuery assistance?

[Joel Shapiro]

Thanks Michael!

I'm really starting to get jQuery -- and it is very cool.  Your  
sample code makes sense to me(!)

I was just going through some of 15daysofjquery.com.  Their Day 2  
example "Table Striping Made Easy" shows how quick and easy it can be  
to alternate row colors in a table and make the rolled-over row a  
different color.  And by using classes for the tables, it's easy to  
format different tables differently -- really abstracting the  
formatting from the content of the page.

I'm also starting to see some possible advantages of using elements  
other than 'a' as links, like you'd said.

Do you have any particular tutorial sites that you liked when you  
were first learning jQuery?  I've looked at a couple of the tutorials  
on jquery.com.

Thanks,
-Joel
