Why jQuery 1.3.2 and not 1.4.2?
Is there a particular reason why jQuery 1.4.2 wasn't used for mediawiki 1.16? Was there a problem with jQuery 1.4.2 that caused you to use the one year older 1.3.2? Dave 98.248.0.129 03:05, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Because 1.3.2 was the most recent version when 1.16 development was started. -- Skiz zerz  04:07, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
 * MediaWiki 1.17 will ship with jQuery 1.4.2 Krinkle 00:45, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Using FireQuery and uncompressed jQuery for development
I'd like to use Firefox add-on FireQuery for jQuery development but haven't come very far yet. I suppose the problem is the minified jQuery which isn't very useful for development purposes. Is there a way to use the uncompressed version of jQuery for development? TIA --Nakohdo 17:06, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know FireQuery, but as of 1.17 the ResourceLoader is serving all resources (minified by default). Append "?debug=true" or "&debug=true" to the end of a link to disable it. Then all raw modules will be loaded. In your development please use  where you would otherwise do a check for your own debug mode and use  .   is a built-in function that will either do nothing in production mode or (in debug mode) send messages to your console (if available) or in a logger-element on the page.
