Good point Jay!
Another area that causes many questions/posts to be skipped over by developers who would have otherwise answered the question/contributed to the discussion, is when users insist on including server-side code in their markup. Unless server-side code is absolutely necessary, you're better off viewing your page via a browser and posting the page source (generated HTML).
jQuery (JavaScript) does not really care what server-side technology you use - it does not get to see it. The web server (applications) converts the server-side code into HTML and presents that to the browser.
Whenever server-side code is posted here, the developer has to do the work of the web server (which most of us are not ready/willing to do) and then, before they can do what needs to be done. Please keep that in mind next time you ask a question.
Please ..... help us help you ..... if the PHP/ASP.NET/JSP ... you include in your markup does not add value to your question, do not include it!!
