While marking up the splendid Lost World’s Fairs for a recent IE9 demo, Dave Rupert and Trent Walton developed a handy little jQuery plugin called Lettering Dot JS. If you’ve visited the Lost World’s Fairs you’ll notice the purposefully intense use of web type throughout the designs. Within a given element, Dave and Trent’s plugin essentially auto-wraps each letter with a custom span and class, making it easy to target each letter for individual styling. Besides easy maintenance and keeping your working markup clean, there are some other benefits of the script worth checking out on Dave’s site.
