What is ".el" in relationship to JavaScript/HTML/jQuery?
html, javascript, jquery
Solution
`el` is just an identifier and it refers to an element, a DOM element, which is a convention in that library.
Problem
I couldn't find much from Googling, but I'm probably Googling the wrong terms. I'm trying to understand what the "el" in "$.el" is from here: http://joestelmach.github.com/laconic/ ``` $.el.table( $.el.tr( $.el.th('first name'), $.el.th('last name')), $.el.tr( $.el.td('Joe'), $.el.td('Stelmach')) ).appendTo(document.body); ``` Thanks in advance!
