I always use $ to indicate it's a jQuery object, but if it's confusing I agree with removing them

so 👍

(could you please include the PR template into your PR description?)

Actually the variable collectionHolder should be assigned within the jQuery ready function, but declared outside, since it is used in other functions as well.

Hi Giuseppe!

It's subjective, but I don't agree with removing the $ in front of the variables. I believe it's a semi-standard - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/205853/why-would-a-javascript-variable-start-with-a-dollar-sign#answer-553734. We'll see what others think. But you're right about the variable move :).

Cheers!

Using $ in front is also a best practice for me; at first glance you know what kind of variable it is.

In case we keep the $ prefix, we can add a notice explaining its meaning.

That sounds like a good suggestion to me. @attardi can you make the change to put the $ back and add a note about it?

Thanks!

I used to prefix my jQuery object with $ too.

I did it.
However github generated another branch when I tried to edit.
Then I closed and it yold me I had unmerged pull requests.
I am not sure I did the right thing.

@attardi you should go to your repo, select the patch-1 branch and do the updates then.

Did it.
I changed the name of collectionHolder to $collectionHolder, because
that too is a jQuery variable.
