What are good resources for getting started with jQuery? [closed]

Question

jQuery and JavaScript in general are new ground for me.

What are some good resources to get me up and running.

I am particularly interested in page manipulation - eg moving elements about programmatically.

Answer 1

Well, docs.jquery.com would be a good start (especially the Manipulation section). Usually lots of good examples as well as the documentation.

I picked up jQuery in Action which was well-worth a read.

Answer 2

docs.jquery.com is the obvious choice however there are some great tutorials out there jQuery for designers is one of the best.

However if your looking to really jump in and learn it all quickly and hands on (which i suggest) I highly recommend the firebug console and Visual jQuery and start tinkering away best way to learn IMHO, good luck!
