Can JQuery do all this functionality?

As I am newbie to JQuery. I have certain questions in mind regarding JQuery. Can I make complete website with Jquery? Means in ASP.Net website we use Server Controls to design page, Can we make all this functionality on .ASPX page using JQuery? If yes, then how to handle server side events? For designing .ASPX pages, what we prefer to use? JQuery standard controls or Plugin?

No. JQuery is not a server-side framework. It's a client side DOM Manipulation domain specific language and API that enables client-side code to work cross-browser, and includes a variety of utility and helper functions for AJAX, deferred callback resolution, and generic functional programming.

In short, it is not meant to replace your server-side code.

The jQuery framework is only a javascript library which means it can only handle events or actions on the client-side. It doesn't matter what backend you are using for your website (PHP, ASP.Net, Python), javascript only works once the page has been rendered and sent to the browser. Try reading up on the docs for jQuery here: http://docs.jquery.com/

If you have any questions specifically about jQuery programming, we would be more than happy to answer them.
