Review: Building Blocks

 

  • Javascript can MANIPULATE the DOM example
  • CSS also refers to the DOM example

Review: Building Blocks

 

Front-end

  • the part that users interact with
  • HTML, CSS, and JavaScript cooked up in your computer’s browser
  • But wait... There's SOME data management in your browser too! (stay tuned)

Review: Building Blocks

 

Back-end

  • consists of a server, an application, and a database

  • typically if you enter data into a website and it can be retrieved when you login, there is some kind of "back-end" application/data management system involved!

  • But wait... there are more APIs available for squirting data around all the time, and different plumbing to get it!  (stay tuned)

<html>
<head>
  <style>
    body {

    }

    h1 {
      color: orange;
      text-align: center;
    }
  </style>

  <script>
    function myFunction(selection) {  
     if (selection === 1) 
      alert("yes");  
     else
      alert("no");
    }
  </script>
</head>

<body>
  <h1>Hello!</h1>
  <p onclick="myFunction(1)"><a href="#!">First Option</a></p>
