Overview
jQuery is a popular JavaScript library that simplifies event
handling, animating, and Ajax interactions for rapid web
development. Many companies are using jQuery including: Amazon,
Google, Twitter, Bank of America, BBC, ESPN, CBS News, Digg,
Reuters, IBM, Netflix, Dell, Oracle, Slashdot, Tecnorati, and
Intuit.
Even casual web designers, who create web pages for fun, want to
add the latest cool effects to their sites, and jQuery--the fast,
flexible JavaScript library--is a tool of choice. Just as CSS
separates "display" characteristics from the HTML structure, jQuery
separates the "behavior" characteristics from the HTML structure.
From visual effects, special controls, and Ajax made easy, the
jQuery Visual QuickStart Guide will teach readers how to make the
most of jQuery using the task-based, step-by-step, visual format
they love. It's crammed with examples and there's a special section
on widgets.
