Little makeup and a new task

Ok, so i got a feedback from a friend that this last post was not that clear as i wanted it to be. I have to admit it. It's a bit scary though as i read it through. My goal is that everybody who struggling with the same issues i have right now could see that they're not alone on this adventure. I wrote that it's not easy. I want to correct that. It's easy, it takes only time. But the time works for you not against you. Think about it, with every day that you learn on you'll become more and more trained. And you don't have to spend hours in front of the monitors. I practice every day about an hour or so. Of course if i have more time than i raise that learning time also.
As i mentioned before (i think i did) i'm about to become more familiar with jquery. I think it's a great tool to the front and back-end development. Many tasks are much easier with it. This friend who gave me the feedback told me an interesting issue that you could handle with jquery right in the browsers console. Let's say you're on a page that have search field and you can type in some criterias and then as results we have many links with documents. If you click on the links the download of the document begins. But what if we're to lazy to click on every link? We can manipulate the DOM (Document Object Model which contains all the elements within the page div's paragraphs etc.) with jquery and select all these elements that include the anchor tag with the link of the downloadable document. So i've never had such a task, i'm wondering how because i should had to.
In the next post i'll write down how i solved this issue. See you soon.
