Does Jquery Mobile require jquery.js?

in jQuery Mobile • 10 years ago

If I use jquery-mobile.js, do all the elements in the documentation for jquery apply to jquery mobile? That is, should we be able to freely exchange the two js files and the site will continue to work?

I'm just not sure about the relationship between these code systems, and am seeking clarification.

JQuery Mobile requires JQuery as a prerequisite.

You can't "exchange" the files. You need them both, and you nedd to load JQuery first.

You can make use of JQuery features in your Javascript. In fact, you should, rather than using DOM manipulation functions directly.

JQuery Mobile is not compatible with JQuery UI, though some people have gotten some JQuery UI widgets to work with JQuery Mobile. I mention this only because - although it's not a part of JQuery - JQuery UI gets some considerable coverage in many books on JQuery.

That explains why the screen goes blank if I remove jquery.js! Thanks for the answer.
