Released version 1.8 jQuery, the popular javascript framework

It 'was recently released version 1.8 of jQuery javascript framework known. Interesting new features, first of all, the modularity, ie the possibility to adapt the framework to suit discarding the unnecessary functions. Personally I think is the most widely used framework, and in my opinion the easiest to use since it has virtually unlimited features thanks to which a few lines you can get an effect that years ago would have been obtained with dozens and dozens of rows. Among the new features in 1.8 have increased the effects of animation, especially the transitions. jQuery 1.8 also has a selector engine rewritten to ensure higher performance and improvements as regards the protection attempts to cross-site scripting, from the point of view of safety the most important news, however, should come with the 1.9 release which is scheduled for a new methodology for the interpretation of HTML markup and CSS selectors.
