1. jQuery does more than just Ajax.
2. It provides nice easy "one liners" to replace 10's or 100's of lines
of code.
3. It's Ajax routines do not cause memory leaks (usually). Traditional
Ajax techniques are more likely to. (closures, etc.)
4. It's more intuitive. (i.e. $("#myDiv").load("mypage.php");)
- more so than Prototype.js (IMO)
5. Finding element references is very convenient.
(i.e. $("#myDiv > table:eq(1) tr:last") - try doing the same without
jQuery. That's the last row of the second table in the #myDiv
element)
6. It's easier to learn.
Now, that all said, you SHOULD have a solid understanding of the base
techniques to really grasp what is going on, and WHY it's so much more
convenient. But we all have to start somewhere.
Hope that's a bit of what you were looking for.
