jQuery Patterns and Practices needed

Hi all:

Does anyone know if there are any useful jQuery Patterns and Practices out there?
I'd like to learn it the 'right way'.

Since jQuery is based on Javascript the "JavaScript Pattern" is a good read. This will build a solid foundation for further exploration of javascript in libraries like jquery, prototype, yui etc.. Also, this will help demystify many of the concepts found in javascript libraries.

Also here's a free book on Essential jQuery and JavaScript patterns

Hope this helps!

EF models. The PatternsInAction solution comes with one model - Action.edmx. I'm creating a new solution that contains multiple models (Account.edmx & Security.edmx). The DataObjectFactory.CreateContext static method returns a specific entity type (return new ActionEntities(_connectionString);). I'm trying to come up with a way for the DataObjectFactory to return the correct entity type. public static ObjectContext CreateContext(EntityType entityType) Is this the best way to go about returning different entity collections? Or should I just create separate CreateContext methods for each entity type: public static AccountEntities CreateAccountContext() { return new AccountEntities(_connectionString); } public static SecurityEntities CreateSecurityContext() { return new SecurityEntities(_connectionString); } Doug
