Starter Methods
I strongly recommend perusing the jQuery API Documentation. Oscar Otero also has a really nice table of contents for the docs at his jQuery Cheatsheet.
As a starting point, have a look at some of these things we can do to an element (or elements) using jQuery:
.toggleClass()
– turn a given class off or on.hasClass()
– check if the element has a given class.hide()
– visually hide the element.show()
– visually show the element.slideUp()
– animate to hide the element.slideDown()
– animate to show the element.siblings()
– find the element’s siblings.removeClass()
– remove a given class from the element.addClass()
– add a given class to the element
