Well, jQuery is JavaScript, so it's not really one or the other. But there are distinct advantages of using jQuery over writing raw JavaScript. These include, but are not limited to:
  • The amount of code you need to write is vastly smaller
  • It handles cross browser differences for you
  • Easy DOM manipulation
  • It presents a single events API
  • Effects such as fading, sliding and more
  • It makes Ajax much much MUCH simpler
  • and so on...

    It's not in *place* of JavaScript, it *is* JavaScript--it's just a library.

    You just asked if you could jQuery in place of JavaScript. The answer is no, because jQuery *is* JavaScript. You can use jQuery instead of the default JavaScript/browser support for Ajax (and should, since it's substantially easier, and eliminates the cross-browser headaches).

    JQuery is unobtrusive JavaScript and it has great extent for cross browser compatibility.
    Syntax is short and sweet.
