Synopsis

HIGHLIGHT

Updated from the best-selling original, this concise, example-driven tutorial on

the jQuery JavaScript library now includes the latest jQuery 1.4 features with

new labs and more examples.

DESCRIPTION

A good web development framework anticipates what developers need to do and

makes those tasks easier and more efficient. jQuery is by far the most popular

JavaScript framework, and the first edition of this book is Manning’s best-selling

book since 2008.

Now updated for jQuery 1.4, the book introduces the jQuery programming

model and guides readers through the major features and techniques needed to

be productive immediately. The book anchors each new concept in the tasks

developers tackle in day-to-day web development. This edition includes new

coverage of the many jQuery plug-ins available and adds even more unique lab

pages where readers can immediately put their jQuery knowledge to work.
