This is a small piece of code that is mostly the brain child of the incredible David Walsh. His version is written in MooTools and you can see it here. There are a few differences however, I removed some of the basic form validation, I set up a Gravatar function to be called onBlur rather then keyUp because the flashing Gravatar on each key stroke just got really annoying. While I prefer MooTools I did this in jQuery because:
- David Walsh already did an excellent MooTools version.
- Depending on its popularity I might make this into a Wordpress plugin. And since most themes and Wordpress are already using jQuery I figured that was the largest market.
- Some of his commenters were requesting a jQuery version.
