jQuery 1.7 introduced $.support.fixedPosition, but it somehow disappeared in 1.8. I can’t find anything in the changelog. Any hints where it has been moved, or if it has been removed?

    Quoth the documentation:

    Since jQuery requires these tests internally, they must be performed on every page load. Although some of these properties are documented below, they are not subject to a long deprecation/removal cycle and may be removed once internal jQuery code no longer needs them.

    […]

    For your own project’s feature-detection needs, we strongly recommend the use of an external library such as Modernizr instead of dependency on properties in jQuery.support.

    It seems it was indeed simply removed sometime between v1.7.2 and v1.8.0.
