Manipulating Elements

In this chapter, I'll show you how to use jQuery to work with elements, including how to get and set attributes, how to use the jQuery convenience methods for working with classes and CSS properties, and how to get and set HTML and text content. I'll also show you a nice feature that allows you to associate data with elements. jQuery has its own internal mechanism for storing this data but also supports the new HTML5 data attributes. Table 8-1 provides the summary for this chapter.
