Out of style…

So, about that whole new JavaScript/DOM Scripting/AJAX thing that I’ve been sucked into. PPK has done some benchmarking and now concurs with what had been buzzing around my head for a while. Namely that when using JavaScript to change how an element looks, it’s much better (and faster) to change the className than apply new styles directly to the element.

Of course, that’s yet another example of using different parts of the Big Web 5 together in the Correct Way. Web development is a very exciting area at the moment, you’ll have to excuse me if I display my extreme geekosity.
