Jquery - Shorthand for the ready event

Jquery – Shorthand for the ready event

A small tip this one but you can save a few characters by using shorthand for the $(document).ready function.

Instead of this…

$(document).ready(function (){
  // your <a title="See also PHP - Generating Unique ID's" href="http://www.whileifblog.com/2012/02/16/php-generating-unique-ids/">code</a>
});

You can do this…

$(function (){
   // your <a title="See also PHP - Split text up into 140 char array for Twitter" href="http://www.whileifblog.com/2011/09/10/php-split-text-up-into-140-char-array-for-twitter/">code</a>
});
