Filtering a Selection (^) ❘ 51
FIGURE 2-3
Example 2-3 packs several concepts together to provide a more realistic example of how you might
use jQuery’s traversal methods. Like all previous examples, you start with the DOMContentReady event.
$(document).ready(
function()
{
The fi rst thing you do when the document is ready is set up a variable to contain a reference to
today, which contains the
var today = $('td.calendarToday');
This example uses all class names because the calendar concept is one in which you might expect to
have multiple months loaded into the same document at once.
