You need to type the following code to create a simple JavaScript message inside the HTML
Personally, I recommend you begin with 'alert' boxes and 'prompt' boxes, then move your way up to variables, until eventually you understand functions, arrays, etc. Then you will be able to create JavaScript masterpieces. You may also want to learn php once you've mastered JavaScript. Simple alert example: Lesson 1: alert boxes alert("This is an alert dialog box."); Body text. Have fun!
You use the input tag and the button and add a bit of Javascript. The following will create a simple button, that when clicked will pop up a message, using a bit of javascript. Copy and paste it or type it exactly as it is into your code and it will work. Replace the Hello with the message you want. Your message must be in single quotes, the alert must be in lower case and there must be double quotes outside it. <FORM> <INPUT Type=Button value="Click Here" onClick="alert('Hello');"> </FORM>
You cannot make an html for show hide, one can simply use javascript to create the show hide code that you are looking for. Depending on what you want, the code is fairly simple using a javascript html code resources.
Javascript can be used on a variety of platforms which require simple computer commands but not a full programming language. Javascript can be used as or in addition to a full fledged programming language.
Codecademy (google it) is a simple, nice and interactive way to learn javascript, and other script languages.
Onclick will be called when the object you're attaching the onclick function to is clicked (usually the object is an HTML element).
JavaScript can be used to add effects on the pages of web site, creating simple animations with the elements in the page. It is used to improve the page design and functionality.
No, there is no need for JavaScript in normal circumstances. There is no need for any programming or scripting languages for web-based programming if you are good with html.But things are rarely that simple. Most websites make use of AJAX and Javascript is essential for it.
with cocos 2D or make a simple game in javascript and pull a UIWeb view over it simple :) -Vishwan Aranha
yes its a wedge
It can help, but it is only one thing you use and you need other things too. Most fundamentally, you need HTML. You can build a simple site just using HTML. It depends on what you want your website to do. You can have a combination of HTML and Javascript and other things, like CSS to create a page. HTML is basically for simply laying out and formatting your page. CSS allows for additional and more powerful formatting. HTML is not a programming language, so your page can not do much if it is pure HTML. To get the page to do things you need a programming language and that is where Javascript can be used. So it is very helpful.
One simple way to involk a URL from within Javascript is to use the location object. For example: 1. Load a new page. <script type="text/javascript"> location.href="http://newpage.htm"; </script> 2. Add a page link to the Open Document. <script type="text/javascript"> documnet.write(location.href="http://newpage.htm"); </script>
