And since Microsoft is including jQuery support in their next version of Visual Studio (2010), you know it will grow even more. So everybody is jumping in on the jQuery bandwagon.Of all the books out on jQuery today, most are just paper versions of the online documentation of jQuery website or the tutorial section. This book is different.This is one of the very few books that actually goes beyond the basic online tutorials you see online and really goes through the entire gambit of 'real-world' applications for jQuery.A few examples are:1. Updating DOM tree elements in complex html layouts2. Manipulating string and array data (improving JavaScript syntax)3. Accessing multiple mouse events via listeners4. All sorts of form element validation5. Image manipulation (scrolling, moving, toggling, fading, etc.)6. Manipulating tables7. Accessing CSS elements and HTML elementsEach chapter has at least 10-20 subsections of useful jQuery techniques that you can apply in a few minutes to your existing webiste no matter what techology you are using behind the scenes. It can be used as a reference book or a learning tool where you read cover to cover. Its really the only jQuery book you'll ever need.A great buy.
