2009 Session: jQuery Loves Web Developers
Thursday, 11:20 - 12:10
Track: Web Development
jQuery is a JavaScript library which allows you to develop solutions with less code, in less time. You can build interactive prototypes for your prospective clients, or take an existing solution and add new dynamic behaviour with little effort.
We will see how jQuery can be used to quickly and concisely apply JavaScript behaviour to your web app. It will cover selectors, Ajax, DOM manipulation and more. The aim: to produce lean unobtrusive JavaScript with jQuery.
Prerequisites
Helps to understand or have knowledge of: CSS and some JavaScript will help.
Expectations
Delegates will learn about jQuery and all it's functionality, where to find more help, and particularly we'll look at the new features of jQuery 1.3 and how to use these features.
