jQuery Message Queuing: Get all your JavaScript ducks in a row

jQuery Message Queuing: Get all your JavaScript ducks in a row

http://benalman.com/projects/jquery-message-queuing-plugin/

Version: 1.0, Last updated: 1/5/2010

With jQuery Message Queuing, you can process and manage operations on large queues of items or elements. You can throttle, giving each operation a little breathing room (firing tracking pixels, performing DOM manipulations). You can force multiple asynchronous operations to execute serially (AJAX requests). You can also get some quantity of JavaScript ducks, put them in a boat, in a line, and have them fight loudly over who gets to use the oars.

jquery-message-queuing's Issues

Priority queuing

This library is awesome. My only request is for a system that allows items to have different priorities as they sit in-queue, rather than only having the option to add things to the front of the queue upfront.
