Understanding

Sessions, Cookies,
and jQuery
By-Ayush & Rijan
Introduction
• Sessions and cookies are fundamental concepts in web
development for managing user data, preferences, and
state. jQuery is a powerful JavaScript library used for
simplifying client-side scripting and DOM manipulation.
Sessions Overview
• A session is a way to store information (in variables) to be
used across multiple pages. It's typically used to maintain
user login state, shopping cart items, etc.
Session Example
• Within the PHP block, we set two session
variables: $_SESSION["favcolor"] is set to
"green", and $_SESSION["favanimal"] is set to
"cat". These variables will be available across
multiple pages during the current session.
Cookies Overview
• Cookies are small pieces of data stored in the user's
browser. They're often used for tracking user activity,
personalizing content, and retaining user preferences.
Cookie Example
• This line declares a function named
setCookie that takes three parameters:
cname (the name of the cookie), cvalue
(the value to be stored in the cookie), and
exdays (the number of days until the
cookie expires).
jQuery
• jQuery is a fast, small, and feature-rich JavaScript library.
It simplifies tasks like HTML document traversal and
manipulation, event handling, and AJAX interactions.
JQuery Features
• DOM Manipulation: jQuery simplifies the process of selecting and manipulating
HTML elements in the DOM using CSS-like selectors.
• Event Handling: It provides an easy-to-use interface for attaching event handlers to
HTML elements and handling various user interactions such as clicks, keypresses, and
mouse movements.
• AJAX Support: jQuery offers powerful AJAX functionalities, allowing developers to
easily send and receive data from a server asynchronously without requiring a full page
reload.
• Cross-browser Compatibility: jQuery abstracts away the differences between various
web browsers, ensuring consistent behavior and performance across different
platforms.
• Extensibility: jQuery is highly extensible, allowing developers to create plugins or
extend its functionality to suit their specific needs.
Conclusion
• Sessions, cookies, and jQuery are powerful tools in web
development. Understanding how to use them effectively
can greatly enhance user experience and interaction.
