    Hi. If I already linked to the Jquery library because I need it for the animate function, is there any disadvantage of excessive use of Jquery in other instances were I could just use plain JavaScript?

    I am talking purely from a load size point of view. I also like the fact that Jquery creates less code so that it is easier to read.

    Thanks,
    -Adrian

    If you’ve loaded it anyway, you may as well use it. Plain javascript can be a real pain sometimes. There’s probably some very small performance hit, but I’d be really surprised if it amounted to anything even mildly significant.
