1. Client-Side Web Application Development with JavaScript ISYS 350

2. Types of Web pages Static page: – The contents of a web page is predefined by HTML tags and other mark up languages. Example: david chao’s home page. Dynamic page – A web page includes contents produced by a programming language when the page is opened. – Examples: Pages that display current date/time, visitor counter – Yahoo home page Pages that display results based on a database query. – Yahoo’s Finance/Enter symbol/Historical prices

3. Technologies for Creating Dynamic Pages Client-side technology – HTML and Browser Document Object Model (DOM) – JavaScript Server-side technology – Microsoft.Net – PHP – Java – Others

4. Example of Client-side Page using HTML, DOM and JavaScript

5. HTML Introduction History: – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML Standard – The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) HTML 4 HTML 5: – Multimedia controls Video, audio, canvas – Web storage: With HTML5, web pages can store data locally within the user's browser.

6. Online Resources for Learning HTML w3schools.com – http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp

7. HTML Tags (Elements) Heading section –,,,, etc. Body section –,, to,, – Formatting:,,, – Comment: – List – Image – Table:, : a new row in table, : a new cell in a table row. – Form:,,

8. HTML Attributes HTML elements can have attributes that provide additional information about an element. Attributes are always specified in the start tag Attributes come in name/value pairs like: name="value“ Name and value are case-sensitive and lowercase is recommended. Examples: – Id: Specifies a unique id for an element – title: Specifies extra information about an element (displayed as a tool tip)

9. TABLE Tag Year Value at BeginYr Dep During Yr Total to EndOfYr 1 2000 400

10. FORM Tag Form attributes: – action: Specify the URL of a program on a server or an email address to which a form’s data will be submitted. – method: Get: the form’s data is appended to the URL specified by the Action attribute as a QueryString. Post: A preferred method for database processing. Form’s data is sent in the HTTP body. – mame: Form’s name

11. QueryString A QueryString is a set of name=value pairs appended to a target URL. It can be used to pass information from one webpage to another. To create a QueryString: – Add a question mark (?) immediately after a URL. – Followed by name=value pairs separated by ampersands (&). Example: http://my.com/Target.htm?CustID=C1&Cname=Chao

12. Adding HTML Controls Tools/Palette/HTML, JSPCode Clips

13. Creating HTML Form

14. Create a Form Using NetBean

15. Step by Step 1. Add a form tag: – Name property – Action: server-side program; leave it blank for client-side 2. Add lables by typing 3. Add text input 4. Add dropdown list: – Number of options 5. Add radiobutton – All buttons belong to a group 6. Add button – Lable – Type: Submit – submit to a server Standard – client-side 7. Add to start a new line

16. Dropdown List Example 4% 4.5% 5% 5.5% 6%

17. RadioButton Example: RadioButtons having the same name belong to one group 10 year 15 year 30 year

18. Enter PV: Select Rate: 4% 4.5% 5% 5.5% 6% 6.5% 7% Select Year: 10 year 15 year 30 year Future Value: Note: We can assign an id to a HTML tag (element).

19. HTML Tags and Events Link : click, mouseOver, mouseOut Image : abort(loading is interrupted), error, load. Area : mouseOver, mouseOut Body : blur, error, focus, load, unload Frameset: blur, error, focus, load, unload Frame: blur, focus Form: submit, reset Textbox, Text area: blur, focus, change, select Button, Radio button, check box: click List: blur, focus, change

20. Event Handler Event handler name: on + event name – Ex. onClick Calling a handler: – onClick="CompSumJS()“ – onClick="window.alert('you click me')" – Note: single quote/double quote

21. Example of Event Handler <!-- function showSum(){ num1=parseFloat(window.prompt("Enter Num1: ")); num2=parseFloat(window.prompt("Enter Num2: ")); sum=num1+num2; window.alert("The sum is: " + eval(num1+num2)); window.alert("The sum is: " + sum); } -->

22. Form Datalist Control

23. Browser Object Model http://w3schools.com/jsref/default.asp

24. Window Object The Window object represents a Web browser window. Properties: – window.status, window.defaultstatus – window.document, window.history, window.location. – Window.name Methods: – window.open (“url”, “name”, Options) Options: menubar=no, status=no, toolbar=no, etc. – window.close – window.alert(“string”) – window.prompt(“string”) – Window.focus, Etc. Try statements at: http://w3schools.com/jsref/default.asp

25. Navigator Object The navigator object provides information about the browser. Properties: – Navigator.appName:browser name – Navigator.appCodeName: browser code name – Navigator.appVersion – Navigator.platform: the operating system in use.

26. Location Object Allows you to change to a new web page from within a script code. Properties: – Host, hostname, pathname – Href: current page’s URL address To reload a page: – location.reload() To open a page:Assign() – Ex. location.assign(URL)

27. Testing function openNew(){ site=window.prompt("enter url:"); window.open (site); location.assign("http://localhost:8080/WebApplication5"); }

28. History Object Maintain a history list of all the documents that have been opened during current session. Methods: – history.back() – history.forward() – history.go(): ex. History.go(-2)

29. Document Object The document object represents the actual web page within the window. Properties: – background, bgColor, fgColor, title, url, lastModified, domain, referrer, cookie, linkColor, etc. Ex. document.bgColor=“silver”; Methods: – Document.write (“string”) – Document.open, close

30. Accessing data entered on a form Using the future value form as an example: – Form name: fvForm – Textbox name: PV – Dropdown list: Rate – Radiobutton group name: Year

31. Accessing data entered on a form Textbox: – document.fvForm.PV.value Dropdown list: – document.fvForm.Rate.options[document.fvForm.R ate.selectedIndex].value Radiobuttons: if (document.fvForm.Year[0].checked) {myYear=10;} else if (document.fvForm.Year[1].checked) {myYear=15;} else {myYear=30;}

32. CheckBox document.LoanForm.checkBox1.checked

33. Alternative way using the id attribute document.getElementById(“PV").value

34. JavaScript Reference http://w3schools.com/js/default.asp

35. Client Side Script ……..statements

36. JavaScript Variable Declaration var intrate, term, amount; Data Type: – Variant - a variable’s data type is determined when it is initialized to its first value. Variable scope: – Local: Variables declared in a function or procedure. – Global: Variables declared in the heading section, but not in a function or procedure. Variable name is case-sensitive. Note: We can use a variable without declare it.

37. Statements Statements: – End with “;” – Block of code: { } Comments: – Single-line comment: //comment – Block comment: /* comment comment */

38. Arrays var arrayName = new Array(array size); var Pet = new Array(2); Pet[0]=“dog”; Pet[1]=“cat”; Pet[2]=“bird”;

39. Operators Arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, Math.pow(x,y), etc. Math is an object with many methods such as round(x), random(), sqrt(x), ceil(x), floor(x), etc. Comparison operators: = =, !=,, = Logical operators: &&, ||, !

40. Formula to Expression

41. IF Statements JS:if (condition) { statements; } else { statements; } if (document.fvForm.Year[0].checked) {myYear=10;} else if (document.fvForm.Year[1].checked) {myYear=15;} else {myYear=30;}

42. Switch Case Statements switch(varable name) { case value1: statements; break; case value2: statements; break; … default: statements; break; }

43. Loop Structures 1.while (condition) { statements; } 2. for (var I = 0; I<5;I=I+1){ statements; } Note: Use Break statement to exit loop earlier. Ex. Break ;

44. JavaScript’s Conversion Functions parseFloat:for conversion to a floating-point number: – Ex. parseFloat('77.3') -> 77.3 parseInt: for string-to-integer conversion – Ex. parseInt('123.45') -> 123 toString(), toFixed(n) example: Price=5; Qty=10; Amount=Price*Qty; Document.write (Amount.toString()); Document.write (Amount.toFixed(2)); eval strVar = “5”; numVar = eval(strVar) Eval(Price*Qty)

45. Try Catch try { //Run some code here } catch(err) { //Handle errors here }

46. window.prompt: similar to VB’s inputBox window.alert: like MessageBox function showSum(){ num1=parseFloat(window.prompt("Enter Num1: ")); num2=parseFloat(window.prompt("Enter Num2: ")); sum=num1+num2; window.alert("The sum is: " + eval(num1+num2)); window.alert("The sum is: " + sum); }

47. JavaScript Functions Defining functions – function functionName(arg1,..,argN){ Statements; return return value; – } Note: 1. The arguments are optional. 2. The return statement is optional. A JavaScript function is not required to return a value.

48. Example: JavaScript to Compute the sum of two values <!-- function ComputeSum(){ n1=document.testForm.num1.value; n2=document.testForm.num2.value; document.testForm.valueSum.value=eval(n1)+eval(n2); } -->

49. JavaScript to compute the future value

50. Enter PV: Select Rate: 4% 4.5% 5% 5.5% 6% 6.5% 7% Select Year: 10 year 15 year 30 year Future Value: Note: We can assign an id to a HTML tag (element).

51. <!-- function ComputeFV(){ //myPV=eval(document.fvForm.PV.value); myPV=parseFloat(document.fvForm.PV.value); //myRate=eval(document.fvForm.Rate.options[document.fvForm.Rate.selectedIndex].value); myRate=parseFloat(document.fvForm.Rate.options[document.fvForm.Rate.selectedIndex].va lue); if (document.fvForm.Year[0].checked) {myYear=10;} else if (document.fvForm.Year[1].checked) {myYear=15;} else {myYear=30;} fv=myPV*Math.pow(1+myRate,myYear); document.fvForm.FV.value=fv.toString(); } --> Code Example

52. Using document.getElementById Enter PV: 4% 5% 6% 7% 8% Select Year: 10 year 15 year 30 year Future Value:

53. function ComputeFV(){ //myPV=eval(document.fvForm.PV.value); myPV=parseFloat(document.getElementById("PV").value); myRate=parseFloat(document.getElementById("Rate").value); if (document.getElementById("Year10").checked) {myYear=10;} else if (document.getElementById("Year15").checked) {myYear=15;} else {myYear=30;} fv=myPV*Math.pow(1+myRate,myYear); document.fvForm.FV.value=fv.toString(); }

54. Years to Reach Goal

55. Code Example <!-- function ComputeJS(){ pv=eval(document.testForm.txtPv.value); rate=eval(document.testForm.txtRate.value); goal=eval(document.testForm.txtGoal.value); fv=0; for (i=1; i<=9999; ++i){ fv=pv*Math.pow(1+rate,i); if(fv>=goal){ document.testForm.yearNeeded.value=i; break; } -->

56. Working with Table Straight Line Depreciation Table

57. HTML Table Tag : id and name attributes – : Table Heading section : new row – : column heading – : data rows

58. HTML Form Code Straight Line Depreciation Table Enter Property Value: Enter Property Life: Year Value at BeginYr Dep During Yr Total to EndOfYr

59. Table/Row/Cell Object Table object: – Properties: rows: collection of data rows (including the header row) – rows.length: number of rows – 0-based index – Methods: InsertRow(index) deleteTow(index) Data Row object method: – insertCell(index) Cell object: – innerHTML property: cell’s data

60. HTML element’s innerHTML property Each HTML element has an innerHTML property that defines both the HTML code and the text that occurs between that element's opening and closing tag. By changing an element's innerHTML after some user interaction, you can make much more interactive pages. Assigning a value: – document.getElementById(“p”).innerHTML = 5;

61. function showTable(){ value=eval(document.depForm.pValue.value); life=eval(document.depForm.pLife.value); depreciation = value / life; var table = document.getElementById('depTable'); var totalDepreciation=0; for(var i = table.rows.length - 1; i > 0; i--) { table.deleteRow(i); } for (count = 1; count <= life; count++) { var rowCount = table.rows.length; var row = table.insertRow(rowCount); var cell0 = row.insertCell(0); cell0.innerHTML=count; var cell1 = row.insertCell(1); cell1.innerHTML="$" + value.toFixed(2); var cell2 = row.insertCell(2); cell2.innerHTML="$" + depreciation.toFixed(2); totalDepreciation += depreciation; var cell3 = row.insertCell(3); cell3.innerHTML="$" + totalDepreciation.toFixed(2); value -= depreciation; }

62. Validating Data: The property value and life boxes cannot be blank <!-- function Validating(){ var Valid; Valid=true; if (document.depForm.pValue.value=="" ||document.depForm.pLife.value=="") {Valid=false;} if (Valid==false) {alert("Property value or life cannot contain blank");} else {showTable();} }--> Note: the button’s onClick event will call the Validating function:

63. Useful function for Validation isNaN(): The isNaN() function determines whether a value is an illegal number (Not-a- Number). This function returns true if the value is NaN, and false if not.
