0 TO HERO SEPTEMBER 2011 A jQuery Primer
WHAT JavaScript framework Cross-browser compatible Lightweight (31KB) APIs for DOM,
events, animation, Ajax
WHY Most popular Concise Well documented and maintained Extensible via
plugins Easy for designers
HOW Either self-host or include from CDN <head> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/
jquery-‐1.6.3.min.js"></script> </head>
CORE The core is the jQuery() function, a standard JavaScript
function To save space, it’s aliased to $() Revert with jQuery.noConflict()
SELECTION Given this HTML element <div id="menu"></div> Select it with
jQuery("#menu") or simply $("#menu")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul>
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $("h1")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $(":header")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $("ul")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $(".benefits")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $("ul
li")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $("ul
li:eq(1)")
SELECTION <h1>jQuery Notes</h1> <ul class="benefits"> <li>Popular</li> <li>Concise</li> <li>Extensible</li> </ul> $("ul
li:not(:first)")
Accepts CSS 2 & 3 selectors, such as $("article >
section") $(".menu li:last-‐child") $("a[href^='http://']") $("table tr:nth-‐child(2n+1) td") Uses cross-browser Sizzle engine SELECTION
And custom extensions, such as :visible, :hidden, :focus, :disabled :eq(),
:lt(), :gt(), :even, :odd :empty, :not(), :has(), :contains() :input, :checkbox, :radio, :file :header, :text, :image CUSTOM
DIY Or make your own selectors $.expr[":"].parked = function(obj){…}; and
apply them $(".blues:parked").each(…);
OBJECTS Using jQuery with objects $(document) $(window) Define the current
context $(this)
OBJECTS For example $("div").hover(function() { $(this).addClass("on"); }, function() {…});
CORE Code is generally run when DOM is ready window.onload
= function(){…} $(document).ready(function(){…}); Can be called repeatedly, and shortened to $(function(){…});
CORE jQuery deals in ‘collections’ of one or more objects,
so $("ul li") returns a collection of all matching elements
CORE Some JavaScript properties work with collections $("ul li").length As
well as array indices to isolate individual DOM nodes $("ul li")[0]
TIP When assigning jQuery collections to variables, prefix with $
var $myList = $("#mylist"); Useful reminder as to a variable’s type.
CORE jQuery uses JavaScript syntax for conditional statements, loops, etc.
if (this > that) { $("nav").hide(); } else {…}

METHODS $("div").load("index.html");
METHODS $("div").load("index.html #main");
METHODS As well as methods for… Array handling Forms manipulation

CHAINING Most methods return the same jQuery collection, and can
be chained in sequence $("div:hidden") .text("Error") .css("color","red") .fadeIn();
CHAINING If a method returns a new collection, return to
the previous collection using end() $("div").find("a") .addClass("mute") .end() .find("b").hide();
CALLBACKS Some methods allow more code to be executed once
they complete (a ‘callback’) $("div").animate( {top: 50}, function() {…} );
DEMO Given the following markup <p>…</p> how might we show
the user a success message above the text?
DEMO One solution var message = "Page saved";
$("<div>", {class: "msg"}) .text(message) .insertBefore("p") .hide().fadeIn();
DEMO Page saved Single-origin coffee viral aesthetic, jean shorts master

$("<div>", {class: "msg"}) .text(message) .insertBefore("p").hide() .css("opacity", 0) .slideDown(function() { $(this).css("opacity",
1) .hide().fadeIn(); }); BETTER?
