Good tutorial! It’s fun to see the jQuery community starting to grow…

@Dustin Diaz

In the particular plugin above, it doesn’t really do much. If $ had been passed into the function, then it would make $ a conflict safe alias for jQuery.

Example:
(function($) {
// …
})(jQuery);

I actually just finished writing my first jQuery tutorial where I happen to address this. I would love to get some feedback: http://jmar777.blogspot.com/2008/02/building-your-first-jquery-plugin-that.html

That’s a good question Dustin… I lifted it from a previous plugin I’d written. I think it was so I could scope functions locally to the plugin. If you search the jQuery group on google groups you’ll probably find my post about it.

Just out of curiosity, what is the purpose of the primary closure?

(function() {
// …
})(jQuery);
