I've seen alot of jQuery implementations of existent JavaScript functions that merely wrap the JavaScript code in a jQuery wrapper and don't actually rely on any of jQuery's base for their operation. What are the benefits of using Javascript as a jQuery plugin? If there are none is there a speed loss to use a jQuery plugin that could have easily been implemented outside the wrapper just as well? Many thanks in advance (just trying to learn something here). Updated with example: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/base64 was originally http://www.webtoolkit.info/javascript-base64.html
