On: JQuery 1.3 Released

[hs]

does it replace the livequery plugin?

[mrkurt → hs]

Mostly. The livequery plugin lets you watch for new elements and do something when they appear. It's a little resource intensive, since it polls the DOM repeatedly. The jQuery version doesn't have that, and probably for good reason.

I believe the jQuery version attaches the handlers to document which allows it to use event bubbling.

I got this info from a comment posted here by jresig himself. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=406653
