AJAX jQuery Tutorial - An Introduction

Query is a client-side JavaScript library, the goal of the library is to simply the process of writing cross-browser JavaScript code. jQuery was created by John Resig and it was released to the public in 2006, jQuery is free, open-source and is dual-licensed under the MIT license & GNU GPL Version 2.

jQuery's syntax is designed such that it enables developers to navigate DOM element with ease, assign & handle events easily without writing JavaScript code into HTML, like the onClick attribute. The Ajax functions provided by jQuery makes cross-browser Ajax applications very easy to write & takes off the headache to maintain compatibility with each and every browser. Below we'll look at a few examples of jQuery vs native JavaScript approach.

Getting jQuery


jQuery is available on jquery.com in two versions, minified & uncompressed, minified version a has very small size, but you may need the uncompressed version to study & understand, or to make some modifications. It is highly recommended that you use the minified version on production environment.

In addition to the above some internet companies have hosted jQuery on CDNs for public use, here is a list of the most popular ones:

Google Ajax API CDN (Also supports SSL via HTTPS)

http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.js Source version
