After looking through the threads in MaC containing things about javascript, I saw that there is no topic for Javascript in general. Hence I made this. Talk about javascript here.

I just started and was able to make a madlib sort of thing.

Code:

var name=prompt("Please enter a name","Bob");
var food=prompt("Please enter the name of a food","Chips");
var transportation=prompt("Please enter the past tense of a way of transportation","Drove");
var shop=prompt("Please enter the name of a market","Market");
var number1=prompt("Please enter a number","17");
var number2=prompt("Please enter another number","35");
var adjective=prompt("Please enter an adjective","happily");
var feeling=prompt("Please enter a feeling","happy");
var x=name+" wanted to eat some "+food+". "+name+" "+transportation+" to the "+shop+" and went to isle "+number1+". "+name+" walked down "+number2+" feet until "+name+" reached the "+food+". "+name+" purchased the food and "+transportation+" home. Then, "+name+" "+adjective+" ate the food and felt "+feeling+".";
document.getElementById("spotformadlibs").innerHTML=x;

On the very last line where it says the ID is spotformadlibs, it is what it says (yes, I know it is a very short madlib).

I suck at JS. I can only write short scriplets such as "onClick". sad

Still, thanks to your madlib, I now know what innerHTML does. smile

I wanted to learn it but forgot about it.

It is exactly what it says it is. The HTML that's supposed to be there.

What I think is pretty awesome is that some guys created games, raycasters, simulations, in javascript. Here's the raycaster.

Anyone else use javascript?

That's really cool! I've been forcing myself to learn Javascript lately, but I'm much more of a Java fan. tongue

I looked at that and found that w3schools covers the very basics of the syntax. I got more learning to do...

Javascript confuses me. Why can't it be more like PHP?

I mean document.something.write()? Shouldn't that be write() or write " " ?

But it's a function of the document.

But it's a function of the document.

But all the functions are like that. Just plain confusing in my opinion. Ruby is such a good syntax, it should be implemented more hmm

Well, it makes sense that they'd be like that because they're all functions of the document, which is an object. Don'tcha know object-oriented programming?

jji7skyline · 2012-06-04 22:11:37

Well, function based programming calls functions like

mail()

Whereas object based programming calls objects, I don't know how though tongue

Does anyone know a free website hoting company that uses javascript?

All webhosting companies have javascript enabled.

Try 1freehosting.

Well, classes can have functions. You call the function of the class (statically) or of an object (an instance of the class), which then performs that function.

I assume it's a little different in JS, but the same concept stands.

I hope it's fast.

And iOS devices would be able to play it too! That would be awesome! big_smile

Even android phones smile

All hosting companies use JavaScript, you need to program it yourself though. I'd recommend either 1freehosting or 000webhost. I prefer 1FH though.

Another HTML5 player that's being made makes it so I can actually play Rhy's projects.
