jQuery 1.3 Live Events

Release:jQuery 1.3 - jQuery JavaScript Library:

"Live Events

jQuery now supports 'live events' - events that can be bound to all current - and future - elements. Using event delegation, and a seamless jQuery-style API, the result is both easy to use and very fast."


If I read this correctly, now you can reload parts of your page and have any replaced controls wired up automatically. No more need for post-processing callbacks on $.load() or $.getJSON()?

Outstanding!

(And the description, "Live Events", is concise — much better than the term "path-based bindings" that I've been using.)
