jqueryHow do I use a jQuery function?


Using jQuery functions is relatively straightforward. You start by including the jQuery library in your HTML page, like so:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

Then, you can use any of the jQuery functions available. Here's an example of how to use the .css() function to change the background color of an element with an id of example:

$("#example").css("background-color", "red");

The code above will change the background color of the element with the id of example to red.

You can also use jQuery functions to perform more complex operations. For example, the following code will select all <p> elements on the page and set their font size to 20px:

$("p").css("font-size", "20px");

In summary, to use a jQuery function:

  1. Include the jQuery library in your HTML page.
  2. Use the syntax $(selector).functionName(parameters) to call the function.
  3. The function will be applied to the elements selected by the selector.

For more information on jQuery functions, see the jQuery API Documentation.
