jQuery best practices in case of $('document').ready

Question

I was researching on jQuery best practices and found this article by Greg Franko

Normally, I do:

$(\"document\").ready(function() {
    // The DOM i         


        

Answer 1

In the rare situation when you'll have to work on an older jQuery version (if I recall correctly - pre 1.8.X), whenever you'd specify two document.ready blocks, only the first one would be fired in IE9.

Now this is a rare bug I experienced once, or twice and which I fail to be able to reproduce, but I thought it would be worth noting.
