Overview
" Thanks to jQuery, almost no one remembers the bad old days when developers had to manually manage browser inconsistencies, CSS support, and DOM navigation, and every animation was a frustrating exercise in hand-coded JavaScript. jQuery beautifully manages these concerns, and more, through an elegant, instantly-intuitive library that's become a nearly-universal part of the web. And the latest version of jQuery adds even more features and components to make life as a web developer smooth and productive. jQuery in Action, Third Edition, is a fast-paced complete guide to jQuery, focused on the tasks faced in nearly any web dev project. Written for readers with minimal JavaScript experience, this revised edition adds new examples and exercises, along with the deep and practical coverage you expect from an ""In Action"" book. You'll learn how to traverse HTML documents, handle events, perform animations, write plugins, and even unit test your code. The unique lab pages anchor each concept with real-world code. Several new chapters teach you how to interact with other tools and frameworks to build modern single-page web applications. RETAIL SELLING POINTS Complete, up-to-date, fast-paced guide Focuses on tasks faced in nearly any web dev project Revised edition adds new examples and exercises AUDIENCE Readers need only beginning-level JavaScript knowledge. No prior experience with jQuery is required. ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY jQuery is a fast and small JavaScript library that makes things like HTML document traversal and manipulation, event handling, animation, and Ajax much simpler than using native methods."
