---++ Description
<blockquote>
"jQuery is a fast, concise, <nop>JavaScript Library that simplifies how you traverse
HTML documents, handle events, perform animations, and add Ajax interactions to
your web pages."

Besides jQuery itself, !JQueryPlugin comes with a selection of third party plugins that are thought to be essential for modern web applications.
These are integrated into Foswiki either by means of a special [[#Macros][macro]], by means of "minimal markup", or initialized using
a custom javascript initializer. This way the set of Foswiki macros that comes with !JQueryPlugin is kept rather low compared to the features available
in third party plugins. "Minimal markup" is a way to avoid the need to write javascript code to initialize the interface. Instead, a special
css class is added to an html element that triggers its initialization. See JQueryMetadata for an example.

Use [[#VarJQREQUIRE][JQREQUIRE]] to make use of a specific jQuery plugin on a page. This will prepare the page by loading the required javascript
and css components. If you need to make a feature available on each and every page of your site, you may add this plugin to the list of default plugins
loaded automatically. See [[%SCRIPTURLPATH{"configure"}%][configure]]. 

Those plugins coming with their own [[#Macros][macro]] will take care of loading their javascript and css by themselves. So you won't need to 
call JQREQUIRE explicitly for those listed below.

---++ Adding new plugins

The JQuery ecosystem has a huge number of plugins - more than can be included by default
by this plugin. If you want to add new plugins, then you will find instructions for adding
them at Foswiki:Development.UsingJQueryWithFoswiki#adding_plugins.

---++ Writing your own Javascript

Whether writing your own plugins or writing Javascript code in topics, you should observe the
Foswiki JQueryCodingStandards.

---++ Using compressed javascript and css files
All jQuery plugins are shipped with uncompressed js and css files, as well as minified and gzip compressed.
For instance the jquery.form plugin comes with the following set:

   1 %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/JQueryPlugin/plugins/form/jquery.form.uncompressed.js
   1 %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/JQueryPlugin/plugins/form/jquery.form.js
   1 %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/JQueryPlugin/plugins/form/jquery.form.js.gz

There is a Makefile in the =%PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/JQueryPlugin= root directory that ensures all these
files are up to date. By default all files in the !JQueryPlugin package are up to date, so you only have to
issue a =make= in the root directory if you wish to
modify one of the files underneath. This will update
all minified and gzipped files as required. Enable the ={JQueryPlugin}{Debug}= flag in =configure=, 
to use the uncompressed files right away to omit the =make= step during development of new javascript components.

Apache can be configured to automatically use the =.gz= files if present using =mod_rewrite= as follows:
<verbatim>
  <FilesMatch ".*\.(js|css)$">
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-encoding} gzip
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.gz -f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{REQUEST_URI}.gz [L,QSA]
  </FilesMatch>

  <Files *.js.gz>
    AddEncoding gzip .js
    ForceType application/x-javascript
  </Files>

  <Files *.css.gz>
    AddEncoding gzip .css
    ForceType text/css
  </Files>
</verbatim>

So whenever the browser accepts encoding the file as gzip _and_ the file with the =.gz= exists
in the filesystem, then there will be an internal redirect in the server while still enforcing the original mime-type.
The browser on the client side will unzip the css and js files automatically. This will drastically
reduce bandwidth and speed up interactive performance.

---++ Installation Instructions
You do not need to install anything in the browser to use this extension. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the extension on the server.

Open configure, and open the "Extensions" section. Use "Find More Extensions" to get a list of available extensions. Select "Install".

If you have any problems, or if the extension isn't available in =configure=, then you can still install manually from the command-line. See http://foswiki.org/Support/ManuallyInstallingExtensions for more help.


<blockquote class="foswikiHelp"> %X% For Foswiki versions before 1.1, this plugin requires the Foswiki:Extensions.ZonePlugin to be installed. The !ZonePlugin is *not* required for Foswiki 1.1 or later.</blockquote>
