First you have to include jQuery library,
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
jQuery always ready to read Document Object Model(DOM), we use to add some event in the DOM.
When the event is work properly in your page than the inside you are call in the
$(document).ready() function. All the DOM event work first inside it will load before the page contents are loaded.<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("div").click(function() {
alert("Welcome to the start jQuery learn..!");
});
});
</script>
DOM stuff write inside
<script> tag. Following code check the DOM element are fully loaded before the page loading is finish. When the page loading is finished then the executed code block look like this...$(document).ready(function() {
// When DOM is ready this stuff will execute
});jQuery First Example
