Study Notes
jQuery Basics
- jQuery is a JavaScript library designed for simplifying client-side scripting.
- Uses the
$
sign as a shorthand reference to jQuery functions. - It integrates seamlessly with AJAX for asynchronous data requests.
Selectors and Elements
- CSS selectors are utilized to select elements within jQuery.
- Example:
$("div")
selects all<div>
elements in the document. -
$("div.intro")
selects<div>
elements with the classintro
. -
$("div p")
selects all<p>
elements that are descendants of<div>
elements.
jQuery Methods
- To change an element's style, use
css()
, e.g.,$("p").css("background-color","red")
sets background color to red. - The
hide()
method hides selected elements whiletoggleClass()
adds or removes a class from selected elements. - Use
animate()
to animate CSS properties, but it only works with numeric values. - The
parent()
method retrieves the direct parent of a selected element. - For removing elements, you can use both the
remove()
anddetach()
methods.
Document and Loading
-
$(document).ready()
prevents code execution until the DOM is fully loaded. - Since jQuery is not a W3C standard, it requires no specific standards compliance.
Input and Forms
-
$(":disabled")
selects all disabled input fields. - The method
html()
only works with HTML documents, not XML.
Special Cases and Features
- The
noConflict()
method resolves conflicts with other libraries or frameworks. - The
jQuery.ajax()
method allows for asynchronous HTTP requests. -
$("p#intro")
selects the<p>
element with the IDintro
. - The
height()
method can set the height of elements, e.g.,$("div").height(100)
sets heights to 100 pixels.
jQuery Library Access
- To use jQuery, referencing a hosted library (like Google's CDN) is an option but it is not built into all browsers.
