Workarounds for Android Browser 4.0-4.3, iOS 7 & iOS 10 are present in the code base, but we no longer actively test these versions. iOS 8, iOS 9 as well as iOS 11 & newer versions are tested.</p> <p>Any problem with jQuery in the above browsers should be reported as a bug in jQuery.</p> <p><em>(Current - 1) and Current</em> denotes that we support the current stable version of the browser and the version that preceded it. For example, if the current version of a browser is 24.x, we support the 24.x and 23.x versions.</p> <p>Firefox ESR (Extended Support Release) is a Firefox version for use by organizations including schools, universities, businesses and others who need extended support for mass deployments. It is based on a regular release of Firefox and synced from the next regular Firefox every few releases - example ESR versions include Firefox 47, 52 & 60. At any given time there are at most two ESR versions available; jQuery supports both of them. See <a href="https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/">the Mozilla site</a> for more information.</p> <p>If you need to support older browsers like Internet Explorer 6-8, Opera 12.1x or Safari 5.1+, download <a href="https://releases.jquery.com/jquery/#jquery-all-1.x">jQuery 1.12</a> instead.</p> <hr> <h2 class="toc-linked" id="unsupported-browsers"><a href="#unsupported-browsers" class="icon-link toc-link"><span class="visuallyhidden">link</span></a> Unsupported Browsers</h2><p>While jQuery <em>might</em> run without major issues in older browser versions, we do not actively test jQuery in them and generally do not fix bugs that may appear in them.</p> <p>Similarly, jQuery does not fix bugs in pre-release versions of browsers, such as beta or dev releases. If you find a bug with jQuery in a pre-release of a browser, you should report the bug to the browser vendor.</p> <hr> <h2 class="toc-linked" id="about-browser-support"><a href="#about-browser-support" class="icon-link toc-link"><span class="visuallyhidden">link</span></a> About Browser Support</h2><p>jQuery is constantly tested with all of its supported browsers via unit tests. However, a web page using jQuery may not work in the same set of browsers if its own code takes advantage of (or falls prey to) browser-specific behaviors. Testing is essential to fully support a browser.</p> <p>Only the most current version of jQuery is tested and updated to fix bugs or add features. Users of older versions that find a bug should upgrade to the latest released version to determine if the bug has already been fixed. The <a href="https://github.com/jquery/jquery-migrate/#readme">jQuery Migrate plugin</a> may be helpful in identifying and fixing problems during a version upgrade.</p> <hr> <h2 class="toc-linked" id="about-css-selector-compatibility"><a href="#about-css-selector-compatibility" class="icon-link toc-link"><span class="visuallyhidden">link</span></a> About CSS Selector Compatibility</h2><p>Regardless of a browser's support of CSS selectors, all selectors listed at <a href="https://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/">https://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/</a> will return the correct set of elements when passed as an argument of the <code>jQuery</code> function.</p> <p>CSS styles applied with jQuery's <code>.css()</code> method are dependent on the browser's level of support. In general, jQuery does not attempt to overcome the limitations of a browser's style rendering. (One exception is <code>opacity</code>, which jQuery "shims" for older Internet Explorer's alternative implementation.) Furthermore, prior to version 1.8, jQuery does not normalize vendor-prefixed properties.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="clearfix simple"> <div class="constrain"> <div class="row"> <div class="six columns centered"> <h3><span>Books</span></h3> <ul class="books"> <li> <a href="https://www.packtpub.com/web-development/learning-jquery-fourth-edition"> <img src="https://jquery.com/wp-content/themes/jquery/content/books/learning-jquery-4th-ed.jpg" alt="Learning jQuery 4th Edition by Karl Swedberg and Jonathan Chaffer" width="92" height="114" loading="lazy"> Learning jQuery Fourth Edition <cite>Karl Swedberg and Jonathan Chaffer</cite> </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.manning.com/books/jquery-in-action-third-edition"> <img src="https://jquery.com/wp-content/themes/jquery/content/books/jquery-in-action.jpg" alt="jQuery in Action by Bear Bibeault, Yehuda Katz, and Aurelio De Rosa" width="92" height="114" loading="lazy"> jQuery in Action <cite>Bear Bibeault, Yehuda Katz, and Aurelio De Rosa</cite> </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.syncfusion.com/ebooks/jquery"> <img src="https://jquery.com/wp-content/themes/jquery/content/books/jquery-succinctly.jpg" alt="jQuery Succinctly by Cody Lindley" width="92" height="114" loading="lazy"> jQuery Succinctly <cite>Cody Lindley</cite> </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <div id="legal" class="legal"> <ul class="footer-site-links"> <li><a class="icon-pencil" href="https://learn.jquery.com/">Learning Center</a></li> <li><a class="icon-comments" href="https://jquery.com/support/">Chat</a></li> <li><a class="icon-twitter" href="https://twitter.com/jquery">Twitter</a></li> <li><a class="icon-github" href="https://github.com/jquery">GitHub</a></li> </ul> <p class="copyright"> Copyright 2025 <a href="https://openjsf.org/">OpenJS Foundation</a> and jQuery contributors.
