Sets the pad id and puts the pad in the div

$('#examplePadBasic').pad({'padId':'test'});

<div id="examplePadBasic"></div>

$('#examplePadBasic').pad({'padId':'test','showChat':true});

<div id="examplePadIntense"></div>

Sets the pad id, some plugin parameters and puts the pad in the div

$('#examplePadPlugins').pad({'padId':'test','plugins':{'pageview':'true'}});
