Heyy! 1: Sometimes hard to predict performance of selectors 2: Some methods don't chain (those that return values) but there's no marker within the API 3: Some methods have different call semantics (like val() on different form field types, or any of the methods that only operate on the first element of a set) 4: Sometimes can be difficult to evaluate plugins because of all three of the above. for more check this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5347629/drawbacks-of-using-jquery

Disadvantage: Functionality maybe limited While JQuery has an impressive library in terms of quantity, depending on how much customization you require on your website, functionality maybe limited thus using raw javascript maybe inevitable in some cases. JQuery javascript file required The JQuery javascript file is required to run JQuery commands, while the size of this file is relatively small (25-100KB depending on server), it is still a strain on the client computer and maybe your web server as well if you intend to host the JQuery script on your own web server.
