[TCML] Basic Circuit Question



I am currently gathering the parts to build a small Tesla coil. I have a basic question on the circuit. Several of the schematics show the primary capacitor in parallel with the power supply secondary and the spark gap in series. Other designs show the primary capacitor in series with the power supply secondary and the spark gap in parallel. What is the difference in operation and which one should a beginner build? 
Thanks for your help. Richard
