About the book

jQuery in easy steps instructs you how to script dynamic web pages using the popular jQuery JavaScript library, giving complete examples that illustrate each aspect with colourized source code.

jQuery in easy steps begins by explaining how to incorporate the free jQuery library so you can quickly create interactive web page features by copying the book's examples. It demonstrates how to easily select elements of the web page for manipulation and how to simply produce dynamic responses to user events. Examples illustrate various exciting animation effects and how to employ the power of AJAX to load external data without refreshing the entire web page. The book concludes by demonstrating how you can use your acquired knowledge to create your very own distributable plugins for the jQuery library.

jQuery in easy steps assumes you will already have some basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and are now ready to embrace the jQuery philosophy of "write less - do more" to enhance your web pages. It has an easy-to-follow style that will appeal to web developers who want to quickly learn the latest dynamic techniques, and to the student who is studying website design at school or college, and to those seeking a career in web development that need a thorough understanding of jQuery.
