Chapter 1. Instant jQuery Selectors
Welcome to Instant jQuery Selectors. jQuery is a popular JavaScript library, created by John Resig, designed to simplify the client side scripting of HTML. This book will introduce you to the available selectors of this framework. Through the use of examples, you'll be able to start using selectors efficiently and easily to solve your day-to-day problems.
The structure of this book is conceived to help you through the learning process. In fact, the initial recipes will give you an overview of the basic topics, showing you the most commonly used selectors. Conversely, the later recipes will show you how to become a pro by describing more advanced topics such as, creating your own selectors and how to improve the performance of your scripts by just paying attention on how to select elements.
