Using jQuery

Posted On February 14, 2008 7:18 PM By Phil in JavaScript

I know, I must be late to the party, but today I got my first taste of using jQuery for an assignment at work. Nothing fancy, just some DOM manipulation for a form I'm working on. The reason I went with using a library versus doing a home grown code was the fact it was an internet form so more than one (ok, maybe two) browsers had to be supported. I liked the ease of the DOM stuff so I'm guessing the rest of what it offers (I know that's a ton more) should be good. Great, something else I need to put on my To-Do list to learn.

That's one of the things I like about jQuery: it's very handy for doing even just a few minor DOM manipulations, so you don't need much of an excuse to use it.

I have been a fan for quite some time. jQuery is like icing on the cake of Javascript. Javascript gives us power, jQuery makes it sweet.
