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<div class=\"toc\">\n<h3>Table Of Contents<\/h3>\n<dl>\n<dt><a href=\"#introduction\">1.
