title: How can I get class-based objects in JavaScript with jQuery?
body: <p>I'm trying to move from Prototype to jQuery and there's one last thing I can't figure out how to do in the new library.</p>
  
  <p>Here's what I used to do with Prototype:</p>
  
  <pre><code>MyClass = Class.create();
  
  MyClass.prototype = {
    initialize: function(options) {
    }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then I could create a new <code>MyClass</code> with:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var mc = new MyClass({});
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does jQuery have anything like Prototype's <code>Class.create()</code>? And if not, how do I get the same kind of thing without a library?</p>
