jQuery Release 1.2.6: Performance Improvements and Dimensions Plugin Added to Core

Dietrich Kappe, Tuesday, June 3, 2008 @ 11:55 am

A new release of jQuery is out -- 1.2.6, skipping directly from 1.2.3. Most noteworthy are the performance improvements (you can check out the detailed performance data via this Google Spreadsheet). The headlines on improvements:

• Event handling: 103%
• CSS selectors: 13%
• .offset: 21%
• .css: 25%

Lots of other fixes, but the most important, IMHO, is the inclusion of Brandon Aaron's Dimension's plugin -- cross browser support for find element dimensions, offsets and positioning -- in the jQuery core. Check out the release notes here.
