The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

General question about JQuery

Asked by Hube02 in JavaScript, JavaScript Frameworks

Tags:

Ok,

I've decided to take a closer look at JQuery because I've heard some good things about it. As I usually do I got myself a couple of books on the subject; Learning JQuery and JQuery Reference Guide. I opened the first of these and started reading. It all looked and sounded interesting until I got to page 9 where it starts the first example....

Keep in mind that I have not read any further than this as yet, and I plan to continue for various reasons, but the example shown made me pause.

I have learned that divitis and classitis are things that should be avoided. I work for an SEO company and even before this I work hard at creating semantically correct HTML and here in the first example I see things that I would usually avoid doing. The last thing that I want to do is give every div, paragraph, or html element its own class; or to use a div around a single line of text. Earlier in the book the author even mentions working with semantically correct markup and yet in the first example I see HTML that is far from being semantically correct.

My question is, is this something that I can expect if I adopt the use of JQuery? Will I need to infuse my HTML with excessive elements and classes in order to use the functionality that JQuery can provide? Will I need to abandon semantically correct HTML?Start Free Trial
