Extending a jQuery plugin

Question

Has anyone extended an existing jQuery plugin?

I am unsure of where to start. I would rather not actually copy and modify the plugin I wish to extend. Do I do this thro

Answer 1

If the plugin is well done, then you don't have many alternatives other than using its options to change its behavior.

The purpose of this is that all its code is encapsulated and doesn't interfere with other code, so you can't inject any code in it.

If you really need to change its behavior, then I guess you'll need to copy & paste the code.
