Ah. I'm sure this sounds dunce-y because 'jQuery does it for me', but
is a solid grounding in Javascript necessary to a solid grounding in
jQuery (or at least, being able to use jQuery), or just good
practice?

I would guess, as a complete novice, that just using what is already
available may not require pure JS knowledge, but more advanced things
like building plugins would? I assume then that 'Learning jQuery'
would not be the first port of call for me?
