Comment on Using jQuery to directly call ASP.NET AJAX page methods by Iqbal

It just doesn’t do anything, i click and nothing happens. I added an alert(’hi’); and this pop’s up when the div is clicked. Looks like nothing is returned by the GetDate(); method?

Comment on 11 keystrokes that made my jQuery selector run 10x faster by Bill Ortell

Bill Ortell — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 14:22:35 +0000

I profusely use as best of selectors as possible – esp. when using jquery due to its power. It’s more time (in milliseconds) to grab the CORRECT (more accurate) objects, and iterate over a smaller set than to grab the ‘dragnet’ and iterate over 100’s. :)

i too have tested it and know that my older apps are much slower using a ‘dragnet’ style as compared to my newer ones.

thanks for the technical write-up tho, as it confirms as well as validates my brain and I’m sure yours and many others as to the true benefits of using good css selectors in using the power of jquery.

thanks once again!

Thanks so much for this post and all your other posts. I’m looking forward to a follow-up post on this matter once jQuery 1.3.3 is released. Keep up the good work.

Hi Dave,
I wonder how you know people’s pulse! Whenever I get stuck at some problem, you come up with a solution for the same problem as if I asked you :)

It was very incidental that I got stuck with same problem now as I am using jqGrid plugin (which you suggested in mail). I’ve blogged about it here.
Thank you for the article:)

It’ll change in jQuery 1.3.3, to about the same as what I’m showing in my next post (using browser native JSON.parse if available). At that point (my next post), doing it in the dataFilter will be better than what jQuery’s doing, not just copying it.

Either way, you don’t have much choice if you want to transform the data independent of the success handler. Running a transform in the dataFilter via $.ajaxSetup is a must when working with some jQuery plugins that don’t otherwise play nice with “ScriptServices” and page methods.

Phil is right, you should defer that decision to jQuery rather than copy the code. Even if currently eval is what it does, there are good reasons to believe it will change in the future.

You could change the controlbar graphic by overriding the .controlbar CSS. I’m not sure if you can position it in the center though. If so, it would be with CSS (.controlbar is the class to change).

Take a look at how jQuery currently handles the JSON coming back from $.ajax() calls (line 3,725 in 1.3.2).

Next post, I’m going to show using the browser’s native JSON.parse when available, but that only covers IE 8 and FF 3.5. Do you have a preferred JSON parsing plugin for jQuery (that performs roughly as well as eval)?
