Created April 4, 2011 14:01
Encapsulates an object and exposes each of it's properties with their own getter and setter, which maintains the original data type. Methods can be overridden to validate properties more strictly if needed.
var encapsulate = (function()
{
var rGetFirstChar = /^([a-z])/;
function isNumber (value)
{
return !isNaN(parseFloat(value)) && typeof value !== 'string';
}

Four ways to do Pub/Sub with jQuery 1.7 and jQuery UI (in the future)

#Four Ways To Do Pub/Sub With jQuery and jQuery UI (in the future)

Between jQuery 1.7 and some of work going into future versions of jQuery UI, there are a ton of hot new ways for you to get your publish/subscribe on. Here are just four of them, three of which are new.

(PS: If you're unfamiliar with pub/sub, read the guide to it that Julian Aubourg and I wrote here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/scriptjunkie/hh201955.aspx)

##Option 1: Using jQuery 1.7's $.Callbacks() feature:

$.Callbacks are a multi-purpose callbacks list object which can be used as a base layer to build new functionality including simple publish/subscribe systems. We haven't yet released the API documentation for this feature just yet, but for more information on it (including lots of examples), see my post on $.Callbacks() here:
