Why doesn't JQuery consolidate its constants?



All my constants are near the top of my javascript file like below.





When I search the core JQuery file, nothing comes up for Constant and I can't see that they are pulling out constants? Do they not have any, do they have them spread out throught the code, if so, why don't they consolidate them?





I'm not concerned about the language construct const but the concept of pulling out your constants into one place like below.







var Arc = ( function ( window, undefined )

{



var Constant =

{



/**

* Code Configuration

*/





VALIDATE_ON: 1,

JSON_ON: 0,



/**

* Paths Configuration

*/



ROOT: '',

PICTURES: '../pictures/',

TEXT: '../text/',

FAVICON: '../images/logo_small.ico',

IMAGES: '../images/',

GATEWAY: 'class.ControlEntry.php',



/**

* General Constants

*/



ENTER_KEY: 13,

SECOND: 1000,

MINUTE: 60,

HOUR: 3600,

DAY: 43200,

AML:

{

"PASS": 0,

"FAIL": 1,

"NOTDEFINED": 2

}

};



})(window);

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
