jQuery selectors are used to "find" (or select) HTML elements based on their name, id, classes, types, attributes, values of attributes and much more.

How do you select HTML elements using element names, ID, or class? #id selector uses the id attribute of an HTML tag to find the specific element. $("#test")

.class selector finds elements with a specific class. $(".test") $(this) Selects the current HTML element.

Multiple Selectors Selects the combined results of all the specified selectors. jQuery( "selector1, selector2, selectorN" ) $( "div, span, p.myClass" ).css( "border", "3px solid red" );

checked Selector Matches all elements that are checked or selected. The :checked selector works for checkboxes, radio buttons, //and options of select elements.To retrieve only the selected options of select elements. $( "input" ).on( "click", function() { $( "#log" ).html( $( "input:checked" ).val() + " is checked!" ); });

When creating new elements (or selecting existing ones), jQuery returns the elements in a collection. Many developers new to jQuery assume that this collection is an array. It has a zero-indexed sequence of DOM elements, some familiar array functions, and a .length property, after all. Actually, the jQuery object is more complicated than that.
