Chaining

Chaining

Hi There,

I'm  just acquainting myself with the basics of JQuery in preparation for my new role as a web applications developer.

In the other languages I program with (C#, etc) the facility to chain invocations is present, although not recommended by experts who are proponents of clean, readable and debug-able code.

What strikes me with JQuery, is that chaining seems to be a selling point almost. Yest, it minimises code, but does impact upon readability?

I would like to hear a few opinions before I draw any kind of conclusion, so please do post your specific views and help me to build a picture of if/when chaining is suitable.
