Detailed Course Outline

Fundamentals of JavaScript Code

    In this lesson, you will learn some foundational concepts and syntax such as variables, strings, and numbers. These are core concepts used throughout even the most complicated scripts.

      • JavaScript methods (such as alerts)
      • Variables
      • The importance of quotes
      • Numbers vs. strings
      • Concatenation

Reusing Code with Functions

    A function is a group of reusable code that performs a specific task (or tasks) at a desired time. In this exercise, you will learn how to write a custom function.

      • Defining functions
      • Calling functions
      • Defining parameters & passing arguments

Targeting HTML Elements

    In this exercise, we will take a look at what JavaScript is doing in the background. We will use Chrome's DevTools to reveal the structure of an HTML document, select individual HTML elements and edit them.

      • Selecting & Working with HTML Elements
      • Getting & Setting Input Values
      • Hiding & showing elements with JavaScript

If Statements: Clearing Form Fields

    There are times when you only want your JavaScript code to be executed if certain criteria have been met. In this exercise, you will use an IF statement to detect whether a form field contains text and then respond with a hint if necessary.

      • Testing code in the JavaScript Console
      • Getting & setting properties
      • Using if statements
      • Reshowing text hints in empty form fields

Simple Accordion with JavaScript

    Accordions let you condense a lot of information into a small space by hiding some of it. In this exercise, you are going to build a simple accordion to hide and show different elements.

      • Targeting elements by ID
      • Hiding & showing elements with JavaScript

Sharing JavaScript Across Pages

    In this exercise, we will learn how to externalize JavaScript so it can be shared between pages.

      • Externalizing JavaScript
      • Linking to the JavaScript File

      • Editing an Array
      • The Math Object
      • Using the Math Object to Pick Random Testimonials

      • The global object
      • Breaking open & manipulating objects

Dynamically Changing Content with Custom Objects

      • Checking the functionality of the select menu
      • Getting the chosen value
      • Dynamically changing the state name value
      • Dynamically changing the rest of the values

      • Using the for loop to set dropdown menus
      • Clearing the To menu

    • Getting the Swatch Buttons to Work
    • Figuring Out Which Color the User Clicked On
    • Change the Border Color of the Selected Element
    • Using Hover Instead of Click

    • Targeting the proper div: traversing the document
    • Swapping the button image with jQuery
