Javascript Libraries

[L?KE]

Being the suckish person I am at JS, can you all suggest your favourite JS Libraries and suggest which one is the best/easiest.

+REP to all, and thanks in advance.

I think you're refering to javascript frameworks? I prefer jQuery over Prototype and lots of people use prototype. I can understand some features that prototype has, but things that annoy me about it, is it has to piggy back to scriptalous for effects, also it's selectors is slow as. Here take a look at http://mootools.net/slickspeed/ and don't think it's because you're "suckish" at JS to use a framework. Browser compatability is a pain in the ass, so to avoid it I use frameworks too. In the end you need to pick one for your needs that doesn't suck too bad.

I did mean frameworks, lol.

That speed thing, I'm liking the look of MooTools

[Iszak]

Yeah, but you've got to understand that although it has a faster speed it's negligible when you're only using id selectors like #id or class selectors like .class which if you see jQuery is the fastest for id selectors and dojo fastest for classes, I use ID selectors more so one of the reasons I selected jQuery. But you can see how slow Prototype selectors is?

Oh yeah, definitely.

I guess I'll try jQuery as it's the one I was going to use orginially.
