What is Traversing in jQuery?

jQuery traversing, which means "move


through”.Start with one selection and move
through that selection until you reach the
elements you desire.
Traversing in jQuery
 The <div> element is the parent of <ul>,
and an ancestor of everything inside of it
 The <ul> element is the parent of both <li>
elements, and a child of <div>
 The left <li> element is the parent of
<span>, child of <ul> and a descendant of
<div>
 The <span> element is a child of the left
<li> and a descendant of <ul> and <div>
 The two <li> elements are siblings (they
share the same parent)
 The right <li> element is the parent of
<b>, child of <ul> and a descendant of
<div>
 The <b> element is a child of the right <li>
and a descendant of <ul> and <div>
Traversing Up the DOM Tree
<div class="ancestors">
<div style="width:500px;">div (great-
grandparent)
 parent(): method returns <ul>ul (grandparent)
the direct parent element of <li>li (direct parent)
<span>span</span>
the selected element. </li>
 parents():method returns all </ul>
</div>
ancestor elements of the <div style="width:500px;">div (grandparent)
selected element, all the <p>p (direct parent)
<span>span</span>
way up to the document's </p>
root element (<html>). </div>
</div>
 parentsUntil():The parents <script>
Until() method returns all $(document).ready(function(){
$
ancestor elements between ("span").parentsUntil("div").css({"color": "red"
two given arguments. , "border": "2px solid red"});
});
</script>
Traversing Down the DOM Tree

 children():method <div class="descendants" style="width:50


0px;">div (current element)
returns all direct <p class="first">p (child)
children of the <span>span (grandchild)</span>
selected element. </p>
<p class="second">p (child)
 find(): method
<span>span (grandchild)</span>
returns descendant </p>
elements of the </div>
selected element, all <script>
the way down to the $(document).ready(function(){
$
last descendant. ("div").find("span").css({"color": "red", "bord
er": "2px solid red"});
});
</script>
Traversing Sideways in The DOM Tree

 siblings():method returns all  prev()


sibling elements of the
selected element.
 prevAll()
 next(): method returns the  prevUntil()
next sibling element of the
selected element.
 nextAll():method returns all
next sibling elements of the
selected element.
 nextUntil():method returns
all next sibling elements
between two given
arguments.
jQuery Traversing - Filtering

 first(), last() and eq(),


which allow you to
select a specific
element based on its
position in a group of
elements.
 filter() and not() allow
you to select
elements that match,
or do not match, a
certain criteria.
What is AJAX?
AJAX is about loading data in the background and
display it on the webpage, without reloading the whole
page.
For eg: Gmail, Google Maps, Youtube, and Facebook tabs
etc.
NOTE: With the jQuery AJAX methods, you can request
text, HTML, XML, or JSON from a remote server using
both HTTP Get and HTTP Post - And you can load the
external data directly into the selected HTML elements of
your web page!
jQuery load() Method

The load() method loads data from a server and puts the returned data into the
selected element.
Syntax:
$(selector).load(URL , data ,callback);
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
$("#div1").load("demo.txt", function(responseText, statusTxt, xhr){
if(statusTxt == "success")
alert("External content loaded successfully!");
if(statusTxt == "error")
alert("Error: " + xhr.status + ": " + xhr.statusText);
});
});
});
</script>
<div id="div1"><h2>XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX</h2></div>
$get() and $post()
 The $.get() method requests data from the
server with an HTTP GET request.
$.get(URL,callback);
 $.post() method requests data from the

server using an HTTP POST request.


$.post(URL,data,callback);
