jQuery is a JavaScript framework that provides useful functionality for common programming tasks related to the client-side manipulation of web pages. It simplifies tasks like DOM manipulation, event handling, animation, and Ajax interactions. While powerful, jQuery is not a substitute for JavaScript and does not solve every problem - it works best when used to enhance JavaScript where it makes tasks easier. jQuery selects elements, applies functions to matched elements, and returns jQuery objects to allow chaining of methods.
jQuery Selectors
jQuery selectors allow you to select and manipulate HTML element(s).
jQuery selectors are used to "find" (or select) HTML elements based on their name, id, classes, types, attributes, values of attributes and much more. It's based on the existing CSS Selectors, and in addition, it has some own custom selectors.
All selectors in jQuery start with the dollar sign and parentheses: $().
What are Events?
All the different visitors' actions that a web page can respond to are called events.
An event represents the precise moment when something happens.
Examples:
moving a mouse over an element
selecting a radio button
clicking on an element
The term "fires/fired" is often used with events. Example: "The keypress event is fired, the moment you press a key".
jQuery provides a trivially simple interface for doing various kind of amazing effects. jQuery methods allow us to quickly apply commonly used effects with a minimum configuration. This tutorial covers all the important jQuery methods to create visual effects.

JavaScript Libraries - Prototype and jQuery
http://www.refresh-events.ca/events/javascript-libraries-jquery-and-prototype/
Refresh Events is proud to present Cameron Westland (bigbangtechnology.com) and Eugene Andruszczenko (32teeth.org) for our first event of 2009. The topic of the evening will be an analysis of Prototype and jQuery, two increasingly popular JavaScript frameworks. Cameron and Eugene will perform deep-dives into Prototype and jQuery (respectively) and examine the benefits and drawbacks of using each language. The goal is not to see which one emerges as the “better language”, but instead to promote the concept of the right tool for the job.
Zepto and the rise of the JavaScript Micro-FrameworksThomas Fuchs
Here are my slides from JSConf 2011 in Portland, Oregon. I was talking about Zepto, my micro-framework, WebKit-only (works on Firefox too, though) clone of the jQuery API, and why I think that Micro-Frameworks and Micro-Libraries are better suited for the mobile Web than traditional, monolithic libraries, like script.aculo.us, Prototype or jQuery. (A video of the talk is forthcoming and will be announced on my blog, http://mir.aculo.us).
