Using jQuery

simple way (same as "$(document).ready(function(){"):

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<script>
 
$(function(){
 
    $('.target').css('background-color', 'yellow');
 
});
 
</script>

same as previous but with preventing $-conflicts with other js-frameworks:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<script>
 
jQuery(function($){
 
    $('.target').css('background-color', 'yellow');
 
});
 
</script>

window-load (use this method when you need to manipulate with images; only in this way you can get the height of the images with js in chrome which are not yet loaded for example):

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<script>
 
$(window).load(function() {
 
    $('.target').css('background-color', 'yellow');
 
});
 
</script>

Finding elements:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<script>
 
jQuery('.target', this); // finding all target elements inside of the current element
 
jQuery(this).find('.target'); // same as previous
 
jQuery(this).children('.target'); // can be used if the target elements are direct descendants of the current element
 
</script>

jQuery selectors:

1
2
3
4
5
<script>
 
$('.target, .target2').css('background-color', 'yellow');
 
</script>

Creating html tags with jQuery:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
<script>
 
$('<blockquote></blockquote>', {
 
    class: 'quote',
 
    text: $('.qq').text()
 
}).prependTo( $('.target') );
 
</script>

Move elements with jQuery:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
<script>
 
$('h1').appendTo( $('.target') );
 
$('h2').after( $('.target') ); // or this way
 
</script>
