Important Changes
Relative Animations
There was a serious error in the API for the new relative animations that caused a conflict with existing animation styles. To resolve this, in order to do a relative animation, you must now use the following syntax:
$(...).animate({ height: "+=50px", width: "-=20%", fontSize: "+=2em" });
With += meaning “Add to the current position” and -= meaning “Take away from the current position”.
.eq()
Due to some very-persuasive arguments, and a great deal of reconsideration, .eq() has been brought back. A great number of plugins rely on this single method - and the alternative provided by .slice() simply wasn’t as elegant a solution as what was originally provided.

So is the Packer/ActiveX/Flash bug fixed? Or do we have to use the minified version with the patch?
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/930
Also, are you planning on releasing alpha or beta versions in the future? It seems like the day after a major release there’s always an update. It would be nice to have a fully tested / stable version for production environments.
Great work on everything (including UI - looks very nice)!

@Dave: You should use the minifed version, correct. As far as releases go: In the past we did alpha/beta releases but didn’t get nearly enough feedback. Users simply didn’t want to upgrade their applications to an alpha or beta library. So, instead, we’ve had much better luck drastically improving the quality of the test suite - which has been great in catching nearly all regressions. There were incredibly few regressions - only about 1-2, the rest being weird browser quirks. It was, actually, a rather solid release (IMO).

@John: I’m using the minified version and it works great, thanks. Fair enough about the alphas/betas. The releases are generally very solid and the bugs don’t usually effect what I do, but I still like to wait a day or 2 after a big release just to check. Don’t get me wrong - I’m a huge fan of JQuery and it’s saved me hours of coding!

[…] John Resig, the creator of jQuery has been going non stop. jQuery 1.2 was released on 10 September to much fanfare by those who follow it, followed by an update to 1.2.1 for bugs and a missing feature. They didn’t stop there though. Immediately afterwards, jQuery UI was released. jQuery UI is a package of user interface widgets that can be combined to create a powerful user interface for the web.

[…] Based on feedback from Joel Birch and Oli in the comments below, I’ve changed the code below to take advantage of “relative animations,” using the syntax available in jQuery 1.2.1. My initial tests showed that it’s now working regardless of scroll-bar or font-size adjustments. Here is what it looks like now (not sure if storing the difference in a third variable was necessary, but it felt right to me): PLAIN TEXT JavaScript: […]

Your jQuery “minified” is said to be 14KB here and on jQuery.com as well, but on the download site (and once downloaded) it is 44KB… Where the smallest is “packed”… was there a typo or was something wrong with the packing?

“missing ; before statement”.
Which leads to:
“jQuery is not defined”.
Not even the starter kit works. I’m not impressed. When will this be fixed?
