Putting jQuery in Context
Adam Freeman · Apress eBooks · 2013
At its heart, jQuery does something that sounds dull: it lets you modify the contents of web pages by manipulating the model that the browser creates when it processes the HTML, a process known as DOM (Document Object Model) manipulation , which I describe in detail later. If you have picked up this book, then you have probably already done some DOM manipulation, using either another JavaScript library or the built-in web browser API (application programming interface), and now you want to do it in a better way. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
