    jQuery 2.0

    The latest news coming from the world of jQuery is the official release of jQuery 2.0.

    The new  jQuery 2.x library is a significantly smaller file size than the jQuery 1.x series of libraries, but the 2.0 library does not support versions of Internet Explorer prior to version 9.

    For the foreseeable future, the makers of jQuery plan to run two separate lines of the jQuery library:

    1. The jQuery 1.x library will continue to be developed for years to come and will support older browser versions.
    2. On the other hand, the jQuery 2.x library will support newer browsers and will offer both a smaller file size, and likely modern features that older browsers can not support.
