Color coding
Code will be colored using normal JavaScript syntax highlighting (as in Visual Studio). This will
help you understand the code, but you will be just fine reading this material on a monochrome
eBook reader such as the Kindle.
Sample: color.html
Completely grok jQuery text() before reading this book
The code examples in this book make heavy use of the jQuery text() method. You need to be
aware that the text() method, when used on a wrapper set containing more than one element,
will actually combine and return a string of text contained in all elements of the wrapper set. This
might be confusing if you were expecting it to return only the text in the first element of the
wrapper set. Below is an example of how the text() method concatenates the strings found in
the elements of a wrapper set.
