jQuery is a javascript library. This means it is written using javascript, so it cannot run if javascript is disabled.
It wouldn't be right to have a web site, be a nerd, and not take this opportunity for a bit of shameless pluggery.
If you like all these weird and magic internet page things, you should try Coaster Nerd, Oxford Bloggers or, if you'd really like some unexplainable sourcery, is it the weekend yet.
Also you should follow me on Twitter ;)
I can be found fairly regularly at Oxford Geek Nights, OxTuttle and other general nerding out activities in and around Oxford.
I am also often found in my natural habitat which is anywhere that you can find an adreneline machine. I frequent English theme parks more often than is healthy, and take trips abroad to sample foreign rides.
Was having a decidedly crap day of development. Just got much better. It's nice when things go your way. #win 1 day ago
These posts were written at the time of writing and may not still be accurate or reflect my opinions any more. In fact, they may not even be correct or representative at the time of writing. You see, when I write, I just write. I don't do that thing which they always told you to do at school and plan what you want to write first. Because of this, there will almost certainly be a load of typos, grammar errors and incorrect facts and references. If this makes you feel queasy, I apologise that you had to get to the bottom of the page to read this, and hope that some day, you'll learn to forgive me.
Slightlymore started off all too formally for my liking. In the depths of the archives, you'll find tutorials. However if you read the more recent posts, you'll find them a lot more playful and about fun and interesting stuff.

Unless it’s running server-side… http://ajaxian.com/archives/server-side-jquery-e4x-and-more-with-jaxer
@Dan Brickley – that’s right, in fact server side javascript is actually quite an interesting subject and one which I’m actively learning about at the moment – but the FGQ (frequently googled questions) section is aimed towards answering some of the simpler questions which people ask google to ultimately end up here, so this FGQ was aimed to answer the more frequently asked client side question :)
Oh, slight side thought – even though technically it is possible to run jQuery server-side – is there much use? Obviously (I think!) the selector engine is rendered useless (after all what does $(“#myselector”) mean if a DOM doesn’t exist), however some of the extra functionality it provides could be very useful, like the $.each() function, which (for the non jQuery guru) works on arrays – not just DOM elements selected via the $ function. For more information, check out the jQuery $.each documentation, and the entire jQuery manual.
Visual jQuery is also an excellent place to easily browse through the jQuery functionality – although (at the time of writing) it’s demonstrating jQuery 1.2.6 (the most current version (again, at time of writing) is 1.3.2)
Lots of searches for jquery without javascript? Do people actually ask this stuff?? What is this world coming to???
