How do I eliminate unnecessary reflows in the JQuery library?

So, I just ran Google's Page Speed on my website and received the following notice:

Can someone please tell me what that means? An开发者_JS百科d how to "eliminate" those unnecessary reflows?

I also tried to use http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.2.min.js instead, but it tells me the same thing.

Plus, I want to use https over http, so I'd rather stick with Google's CDN.

I hope this isn't a case of premature optimization? Just curious.

A reflow happens any time the page changes. This means that the page re-renders. This can happen when you add something to the dom or change a property on an element. One of the best ways to eliminate reflows is to detach elements from the dom, make your changes, and then reattach.

Well you are trying to access Google CDN the wrong way. The correct way will be

<script type="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.js"></script>

Note the lack of protocol. Per section 4.2 of RFC 3986, when the protocol is not specified, the protocol of the page will be used instead.
