What's new for us in jQuery version 2
The latest version of the jQuery content structure library mainly "abandons" its support for the old versions of the Internet browser IE in versions 6, 7 and 8 and is now focusing on support for version IE9 and above in addition to the various browsers for which the support has not changed, also the weight of the file has decreased by about 12% of its weight in the previous version 1.9.1 and this is about the removal of patches for the old versions of the Internet Explorer browser, the compensation for this is that it is a faster, smaller and much more professional library.
for building websites compatible with old versions of IE There is also a solution and it is continued support for Branch version 1.9 and soon version 1.10, although if compatible support for old versions is required, the priority is to work with jQuery version 1.9 since it is compatible with all versions for all browsers, and as long as IE versions 6,7,8 occupy an important place on the web, the jQuery development and support team will continue to provide support for years to come.
As part of the definition of jQuery version 2.0 by default, many features and work environments that were acceptable in version 1.9 will not receive support since using the latest version is a better option and this in light of the fact that these features were relevant to the old versions of IE.
Among the main working environments which are not currently supported are;
- Chrome / Firefox OS apps
- Google Chrome add-ons
- Microsoft webBrowser control
- Apple UIWebView class

The version update does not add current features and additions but comes to express support for advanced versions of the browser – IE.
