<script> Assignment

Try the assignment below:

 

You do not have to learn all the details about "objects", "properties," "methods," "event handlers" and other JavaScript anatomy to use features on your pages. There are several sites where you can find scripts to cut and paste into you html. Go to one of the sites listed in "Readings" or "Resources" and select a feature. Or you can use the "View>Page Source" on the lesson pages for this unit to find scripts. Add the feature to the homework page you originally prepared for unit 4 and have since adapted.

If you are unsure how to cut and paste the script, see the Wepedia instructions about adding JavaScript to your page.

If you plan to use a JavaScript feature on your semester project, you will demonstrate your mastery there and do not have to add it to the homework page now. If you plan to do that, however, please write the instructor about your plan.

Continue to work on your semester project.

Now might be a good time to review the Guidelines for the Semester Project. (This is also a way for me to show how a <form> plus an "onClick" JavaScript event handler combine to create a button below. Use "View>Page Source" to see how the code works.)
