Introduction<\/h2>\n<p><strong>jQuery<\/strong> is nothing but a JavaScript library that comes with rich functionalities. It is small and faster than many JavaScript code written by an average web developer. By using jQuery, developers can write less code and do more things, making web developer\u2019s tasks very easy. In simple word, jQuery is a collection of several useful methods, which can be used to carry out many common tasks in JavaScript. A couple of lines of jQuery code can do things, which need too many JavaScript lines to do. The true power of jQuery comes from its CSS-like selector, which allows it to select any element from DOM and change, update or manipulate it. Developers can use jQuery to do cool animations like fade in or fade out. They can also change the CSS class of a component dynamically e.g. making a component active or inactive. I have used this technique to make <em>tabbed UI<\/em> in HTML. I can vouch for jQuery that once developers start using it, they will never go back to plain old JavaScript as <em>jQuery<\/em> is <em>clear<\/em>, <em>concise<\/em>, and <em>powerful<\/em>.<br \/>\n[ulp id=&#8217;qGGDqWnle19VavkM&#8217;]<\/p>\n<h3>1.1 Why jQuery?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It helps in improving the application performance and increasing the developer\u2019s productivity<\/li>\n<li>It helps in developing the browser compatible web-page<\/li>\n<li>It helps in implementing the UI related critical functionality without writing the several lines of codes<\/li>\n<li>It is fast and extensible i.e. developers can use the jQuery library to implement the customized behavior<\/li>\n<li>It is simpler and easy to learn<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>1.2 jQuery Chaining<\/h3>\n<p>The jQuery library provides a powerful feature called <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">method chaining<\/span> that concatenates multiple events in a singular statement on a particular HTML element. This is because some of the jQuery methods return an object used to call another method. Here is a simple example.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Example<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush:js; wrap-lines:false;\">$(\"#myDiv\").text(\"Namaste, world!\").css(\"color\", \"green\");\r\n<\/pre>\n<h4>1.2.1 How does Method Chaining work?<\/h4>\n<p>It <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">works<\/span> like this:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Developers instantiate a jQuery object and select the <code>myDiv<\/code> element<\/li>\n<li>In return, they get a jQuery object, allowing them to manipulate the selected element<\/li>\n<li>Developers use the jQuery object to call the <code>text()<\/code> method, which sets the text<\/li>\n<li>This method returns the jQuery object again, allowing the developers to call the <code>css()<\/code> method directly on the returned value<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>1.2.2 Advantages<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Make the jQuery code short and manageable<\/li>\n<li>Provide better performance and readability<\/li>\n<li>The chain starts from left-to-right. So leftmost will be called first and so on<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Do <strong>note<\/strong>, the jQuery method chaining will <em>not<\/em> work if the method in a chain does not return an object. These new APIs make a developer life easier, really! But it would be difficult for a beginner to understand this without an example. Therefore, let us create a simple application using the jQuery library.<\/p>\n<h2>2. jQuery Chaining Example<\/h2>\n<p>Here is a systematic guide for implementing this tutorial using the jQuery library.<\/p>\n<h3>2.1 Tools Used<\/h3>\n<p>We are using Eclipse Kepler SR2, JDK 8 and Maven.

Application Building<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s create an application to understand the basic building blocks of this tutorial.<\/p>\n<h3>3.1 Load the jQuery Library<\/h3>\n<p>Since it is a pure JavaScript framework, so developers should add its reference using the <code>&lt;script&gt;<\/code> tag.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush:js; wrap-lines:false;\">&lt;script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"resource\/js\/jquery-3.3.1.min.js\"&gt;&lt;\/script&gt;\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Developers can either download the jQuery from the official website and the application will then directly load the jQuery library from the local drive or they can also include the direct CDN link under the <code>script<\/code> tag.<\/p>\n<h3>3.2 Define the Application<\/h3>\n<p>Next, we will define the sample application using the HTML tags.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush:html; wrap-lines:false;\">&lt;!------ jQuery Chaining Example ------&gt;\r\n&lt;button id=\"start\" type=\"submit\" class=\"btn btn-success\"&gt;Start Animation&lt;\/button&gt;\r\n&lt;div&gt;\u00a0&lt;\/div&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;div id=\"image\"&gt;\r\n\t&lt;img id=\"myImage\" src=\"resource\/images\/mario.jpg\" alt=\"Mario\" height=\"125\" \/&gt;\r\n&lt;\/div&gt;\r\n<\/pre>\n<h3>3.3 Define a jQuery Function<\/h3>\n<p>In this step, we will demonstrate the chaining of three <code>animate()<\/code> methods. Here <code>$()<\/code> is the default syntax for the jQuery function and is used to define the jQuery part. <code>$(document).ready<\/code> method gets called when the document is loaded.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush:js; wrap-lines:false;\">$(document).ready(function() {\r\n\t\/\/ Start Animation\r\n\t$(\"#start\").click(function() {\r\n\t\t$(\"#myImage\").animate({ left: \"+=500px\" }, 4500).animate({ top: \"+=100px\" }, 4500).animate({ marginLeft: \"-=500px\" }, 4500).animate({ marginTop: \"-=100px\" }, 4500);\r\n\t});\r\n});\r\n<\/pre>\n<h3>3.4 First jQuery Application<\/h3>\n<p>Complete all the above steps and save the file.
