Course Description

Open your web browser and immediately you’ve triggered an event.

With every opening of a page, click of a button, or movement of the mouse, you’ve probably triggered dozens of events.

Ever get prompted that you’ll be logged out of a site due to inactivity? You can even trigger an event by doing nothing for just long enough.

Welcome to the world of browser based events.

In my course, Event Handling in jQuery, you’ll learn the basics of event driven programming that will enable you to create more engaging and responsive web applications.

First, you’ll explore the jQuery Event object, and the cross-browser compatibility advantages of jQuery. Next, you’ll discover many of the available event listeners and event helpers that jQuery provides. Finally, you’ll learn how to create and customize browser based event handling.

When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of jQuery Events needed to build truly interactive web applications.
