jQuery has powerful methods for manipulating HTML elements and attributes.
jQuery DOM operation
A very important part of jQuery is the ability to operate DOM.
jQuery provides a set of DOM-related methods that make it easy to access and manipulate elements and attributes.
DOM = Document Object Model
DOM definition accesses HTML and XML documents Standard:
"The W3C Document Object Model is a platform- and language-independent interface that allows programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the content, structure, and style of a document."
Get content - text( ), html() and val()
Three simple and practical jQuery methods for DOM operations:
text() - Set or return the text content of the selected element html() - Set or return the content of the selected element (including HTML tags) val() - Set or return the value of a form field
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<script src="http://libs.baidu.com/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#btn1").click(function(){
alert("Text: " + $("#test").text());
});
$("#btn2").click(function(){
alert("HTML: " + $("#test").html());
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p id="test">这是段落中的 <b>粗体</b> 文本。</p>
<button id="btn1">显示文本</button>
<button id="btn2">显示 HTML</button>
</body>
</html>The following example demonstrates how to get the value of an input field through the jQuery val() method:
Get attributes - attr()
jQuery attr() method is used to get attribute values.
The following example demonstrates how to get the value of the href attribute in the link:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<script src="http://libs.baidu.com/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
alert($("#php").attr("href"));
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="http://www.php.cn" id="php">php中文网</a></p>
<button>显示 href 属性的值</button>
</body>
</html>
