jQuery is a library that can be used with several ECMAScript
implementations, so programming in "Jquery" is programming in
"Javascript" (to stick with your wording), albeit mostly with a somewhat
unusual notation.

The code could have well been:

  function Click_InsertLots()
  {
      //Create and display dialog dlgInsertLots
      dialog(document.getElementById("dlgInsertLots"), {
          width:700
      });
  }

Then the question would arise what function dialog() does.  If it is a
library function, this should be looked up in the library's documentation.
