Jquery version check

Question

I am trying to check the jquery version check. Tried the following commands in the console:

1. jQuery. fn. jquery
2. jQuery(). jquery

but both are printing as "jquery" instead of version number. Please help me on this. The question might be a duplicate but none of them worked for me. so posting again.

Answer 1

You can use either $().jquery; or $.fn.jquery which will return a string containing the version number, e.g. 1.6.2

or

Invoke console.log($()) and take note about jquery object fields

or

console.log('You are running jQuery version: ' + $.fn.jquery)

Answer 2

$().jquery will give you its version as a string.
