Project 8 Integrating JavaScript with HTML
Objectives Discuss how to integrate JavaScript with HTML Insert tags on a Web page Write start and end tags Define and use flickering to draw attention Describe the background color property of the document object
Objectives Set the background color of a Web page using JavaScript Save the HTML file Test the Web page Discuss JavaScript variables Extract the system date Use several variables to construct a message
Objectives Describe the write() method of the document object Write a user-defined function that displays a message and links visitors to a new Web site Describe how the setTimeout() method works Use the lastModified property to display the last modified document date Print an HTML Notepad file
Introduction JavaScript is an object-based language Uses built-in objects Properties are attributes of objects Methods are actions performed on an object
Introduction An event is the result of a user’s action Event handlers are the way to associate that action with the set of JavaScript codes you want executed
Opening a Web Page Open the Public Folder. Start Notepad, and maximize the window. Click File on the menu bar and then click Open. When the Open dialog box displays, type *.htm in the File name text box
Open from the Public Folder the Project 8 folder, click fun.htm and then point to the open button
Click the Open button
Inserting Tags on a Web Page JavaScript code can go anywhere in HTML Place all JavaScript code between the and tags Set the LANGUAGE attribute so the browser knows how to interpret your code The HTML comment line hides any script language the browser might not be able to interpret <!– Hide from old browsers
Entering the Start Tag and Comment Click the blank line (line 10) above the tag
Type and then press the ENTER key. Type <!– Hide from old browsers and then press the ENTER key
Using a Flicker on a Web Page Changes the background color in rapid succession JavaScript allows you to set the background color multiple times, while HTML only allows you to set it once (in the BODY tag)
Creating Flicker on the Web Page Click line 12. Press the SPACEBAR four times. Type document.bgColor=“red” and then press the ENTER key. Type document.bgColor=“white” and then press the ENTER key
With the insertion point on line 14, enter the four remaining lines of code as shown on the next slide
Setting the Background Color to a Static Color The last color you specify will be the browser’s final background color With the insertion point on line 18, type document.bgColor=“blanchedalmond” and then press the ENTER key
Completing the JavaScript Selection It is now necessary to end the comment tag and close the tag If necessary, click line 19. Press the ENTER key to create another blank line With the insertion point on line 20, type //-> and then press the ENTER key. Type and then press the ENTER key
Saving the HTML File Make sure you save this file in your folder, not on the Public Folder!
Type funwithphonics.htm in the File name text box, and then double-click the Project 8 folder. Point to the Save button
Click the Save button
Testing the Web Page Start your browser Open funwithphonics.htm and then press the ENTER key
JavaScript Variables Used to store values temporarily Global variables Local variables Variables are considered global, except if they are declared in a user-defined function, in which case they are local
JavaScript Variables
JavaScript variables are loosely typed You are not required to define the data type JavaScript defines the data type for you String data types var LastName = “Simon” Numeric data types var pageCnt = 1 Boolean data types var Done = false
Extracting the System Date Built-in Date() object Can be manipulated only by creating a new object instance var variable = new object var birthDay = Date(“Jul, 13, 1975”) Returns July 13, 1975 to birthDay var curDate = new Date() Returns the current system date and time information as an object instance
Extracting the System Date The variable curDate cannot be manipulated To extract the date, convert curDate to a string using the toLocaleString() and substring methods
Extracting the System Date Define a new object for the date in MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS format var tNow = new Date() Extract the date and time and store it in MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS format var tlocDate = tNow.toLocaleString() Extract only the date portion from the tlocDate variable using relative addressing var tDate = tlocDate.substring(0,10)
Extracting the System Date Relative addressing
Extracting the Current System Date Using the Date() Object Click the Notepad button on the taskbar to activate the Notepad window. Click line 19 below the document.bgColor=“blanchedalmond” statement
Type var tNow = new Date() and then press the ENTER key. Type var tlocDate = tNow.toLocaleString() and then press the ENTER key. Type var tDate = tlocDate.substring(0,10) and then press the ENTER key
Displaying the Current System Date Use plus signs (+) to concatenate (join) strings and variables
Displaying the Current System Date in the Initial Greeting Click line 22. Press the SPACEBAR four times. Type document.write(“ Welcome, today is “+tDate+” ”) and then press the ENTER key
Constructing a Message Using Several Variables Click line 23. Type var intro1 = “Hi, thanks for visiting our Web site, but we have moved. Please make a note “ and then press the ENTER key Type var intro2 = “of our new URL ( and notify the Webmaster about our new “ and then press the ENTER key
Constructing a Message Using Several Variables Type var intro3 = “location. Click here or wait 15 seconds “ and then press the ENTER key Type var intro4 = “to be moved automatically to our new site.” and then press the ENTER key
Constructing a Message Using Several Variables Type var introMsg = intro1+intro2+intro3+intro4 and then press the ENTER key
Writing the Message on the Web Page Click line 28. Press the SPACEBAR four times. Type document.write(“ ”+introMsg+ ” ”) and then press the ENTER key
