font-family:Arial'>For those of you who would be interested, the javascript
intellisense tool in VS 2008 (which was previously not compatible with jQuery
AT ALL) has been hotfixed (along with some other items). So far as I know
the HotFix applies to both the Pro version and the free version (VS 2008 Web
Developer).<o:p></o:p></span></font>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I tested it and it worked pretty well. $. pulled up a whole
list of static jQuery methods and $.fn. pulled up a whole list of jQuery
functions.<o:p></o:p></span></font>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>It isn’t smart enough to do intelliense for chaining
(ie. $(document). will NOT get you $.fn. intelliense), as javascript doesn’t
have strongly type function returns, but it’s a start.<o:p></o:p></span></font>

would specifically address jQuery!<o:p></o:p></span></font>
