Whats with Low level and high level methods ?
Guys i was reading this document .
and if you see the second paragraph , the author says something like :
Most jQuery code sets data values using the higher-level
.data()
API; for example,
$("div").data("imaDiv", true)
sets a boolean value on every
div
in the document. This API, in turn, calls down to
jQuery.data()
with each element to set the value. For completeness, there are also
jQuery.removeData()
and
.removeData()
to remove data elements, and
jQuery.hasData()
to determine if any data is currently set for an element.
now whats does HIGHER-LEVEL .data API really mean , i have seen this on alot of Jquery methods and also the Jquery doc's uses the higher level and lower level terminology quite often , what exactly does this mean .
