Quick Tip to check jQuery library Version

It is sometimes required to check the currently using jQuery version so that if needed then you can write version specific code. In this short post, you will find that there are two ways by which you can find the jQuery version.

For example, I am using jQuery 1.7.2 version

<script type="text/javascript"src="Script/jquery-1.7.2.js"></script> 

Method 1

$(document).ready(function() {    alert($().jquery); }); 

It will display 1.7.2 in alert.

Alternate Method:

$(document).ready(function() {    alert(jQuery.fn.jquery);   });
