webteacher.com has an excellent tutorial for learning JavaScript. It starts off saying that it is JavaScript for the non-Programmer and goes through step by step defining terms such as JavaScript, Object Oriented Programming (OOP), objects, methods, properties, events, functions, alerts, forms, buttons etc. It also has a great chapter on Loops (chapter 5). This site shows examples of code and slowly goes through step by step the structure and components of JavaScript.

In the page itself you will see [Previous] and [Next] buttons which walk you to the next level of the tutorial, down the left side of the page is each part of the tutorial. Hope this helps!

Ok, so I'm sure none of are kids...age wise (not talking mentally here). I know I learn best when something is dumbed down and in every day speak. So we'll consider this to be junior geek talk. Works for me! And hopefully for you too!

I found this really great site that details browser compatibility with CSS tags. It doesn't depict all css tags (prob. because they all don't have bugs), but details the bugs and compatibility that are known. What is nice is that it lays them out in a tabular format and includes many browsers (including the iPhone).

Hi Dr. Halavais. How do I get a web host? I'm having trouble seeing if I have one.

I have a couple questions. They are highlighted within the sticky notes in the text regarding downloading problems also: When downloading Notepad++ do I need both the binary and the source files? When I attempted to download Jing I received the following error message: The NTVDM CPU has encountered illegal instruction. Can anyone tell me what this means and how to get around it?

Questions about web-view using TextWrangler

This is just an example of one of the many pages on the w3schools.com page. I used this site in my 512 class last semester all the time and it is extremly helpful in helping to get all the little aspects of coding. Plus it gives the example code that you can copy and then mess around with to get the hang of it.

Pat: be sure to include the tag from the assignment. In this case, it's webprog-1-a, and I added it for you.

Ok I know what you are thinking...why is he bookmarking a flash reference site - flash in a web programming class? Well I decided it was important to bookmark the ActionScript reference page because the structure of ActionScript 3 is similar to javascript used in many webpages. No, you don't need javascript to create a webpage, but adding it can allow for additional site functionality. It is also important to know the potential of integrating flash into a website and allowing for variables to be passed form the webpage and communicated to the flash movie.

I took my recipe html file and tried cleaning it up. After numerous attempts to fix my code myself, I clicked the "Clean up Markup with HTML Tidy" button. HTML Tidy basically truncated my table-specific CSS and aggregated it at the top. I suppose I'll learn how to do this myself when I begin on Module 2. Instead of changing the original file, I saved a new one to show to the code difference at http://marie.nfshost.com/recipe2.html

HTML Tidy is a lifesaver--as long as you look at the changes and can figure out why they have happened. (It also makes it prettier, if you use the "indents" feature.)

I did this assignment to become more familiar with writing in html. Also, to work on and its atributes, which I was having a difficult time with. This is a page from Quinnipiac's website, I took the information from it, and found a picture on Flickr. I also added a green background, which I found in the text.

Validate email format, check name and comment fields for blanks

Recipe page with Javascript to validate email format, and check name and comment fields for blanks.

This is a link to a working comments page (linked to a database table) which requires a valid name and email address before submission using Javascript. An error message appears & fades at the bottom of the form if something is omitted. I also made the same thing happen using PHP, so there are also messages at the top of the page from that code. I got the Javascript from http://www.leigeber.com/2008/04/dynamic-inline-javascript-form-validation/, and included this citation in my js page. Upon submission, a thank you message appears at the top of the form.

Nice!
