what is the difference between Javascript and Jquery
Posted

JavaScript is the common term for a combination of the ECMAScript programming language plus some means for accessing a web browser's windows and the document object model (DOM).

JScript is Microsoft's version of JavaScript. The programming language itself is very similar to ECMAScript, but the DOM access differs in many respects.

JQuery is a JavaScript library that handles many commonly used features and also handles the differences between, e.g., Internet Explorer and standards-compliant browsers. It's something you can use to reduce the amount of work when creating web-based applications.

Dear Deepthi,

jQuery is a set of functions written in JavaScript, it might be considerate as a library for JavaScript but is not build-in and needs to be included using the script tag. More information: http://jquery.com/

JavaScript is a language. jQuery is a framework built with JavaScript to help JavaScript programmers who are doing common web tasks.

Please mark this as your answer if it helps you out.

Thanks
