JQuery


I found JQuery very easy to use this week. Unfortunately, I did
have a very difficult time turning my blog green. Perhaps the blogger gods just
knew how ugly my words would look with a pine tree background and decided
against the code I wrote. But, I was frustrated by the fact that although I followed
the directions to a “t” I was still unable to properly excecute the assignment.
I asked my fellow classmates in my discussion post whether they encountered the
same problems but have yet to receive a response. The one thing I couldn’t get
out of my head while using JQuery and I guess it applies to all the
applications we have used including “Blog” is how they came up with the name. I
am sure, like anything, someone had to invent and name JQuery but how did the
name become JQuery. It is not even a word, its not hyphenated, it seems to have
no relevant meaning from what I can see, so why JQuery. Also, for that matter,
what the hell is a blog and who came up with that designation. There is not some guy walking around outthere named Martin Blog or Edward JQuery is there? I think I would have heard
about something like that. The other thing I liked about this weeks assignment
is that it was a break from just writing web pages. It was a chance to work on
a fully formed web page and add our own little twists to it. A stark departure
from Notepad or Scintilla. I hope that the rest of the class enjoyed this weeks
assignment and did not run into the same problems I did with font color.
