Bootstrap: Jumbotron & Forms

If you want to make your message outstanding on the web page, Jumbotron can be a good style choice. Jumbotron is a lightweight, flexible component that can optionally extend the entire viewport to showcase key content on your site. (From Bootstrap Components-Jumbotron)

I would like to try this component on my page, so I create the HTML page and apply the Jumbotron code in the body part. I change the text "Hello, World!" to "This is Jumbotron" and also put its definition in the <p> element.

If we want the whole part to be center of the page, the instructor told us a quick way to do that is adding a "container" outside the jumbotron code.

The instructor also recommended some common forms on Bootstrap. I prefer the inline form because it is very short and simple. I apply the inline form code under the Jumbotron code. The class value "form-group" will group that input, so it can leave some space between each input.

As a result, we can see all the input are in one line. There are some spaces between "Name" and "Email" and "Send invitation".

The final page looks like:

Intermediate Express.js: How To Add Styles & Partials in EJS File?

So far, we only have simple HTML tags and ejs tags in each ejs file. Every template page has no style at all. And the basic HTML header and footer are also missing. Today, I learned how to add styles and partials in ejs file. Link Style Step One: Touch a Separate CSS file I create a new directory "Style" under the "EJSDemo" directory, then I add a new CSS file "app.css" inside "Style" folder. Step Two: Add app.use(express.static()) in the app.js I add app.use(express.static("style")) in the "app.js". This will tell Express.js to serve the content of "Style" directory.

Step Four: Link to CSS file in the EJS file I just add <link> tag to link the "app.css" file on the top of the h1 tag in each ejs template. As the result, when I run the app and...

My Story: A Mommy Start To Learn Code From Zero

From Google Image I am not a programmer, and I thought I would never become one. Everytime I see someone is coding, I think he or she must be very talent. For me, coding is a very difficult subject to learn. Not only the language has so many rules, but also the logical reasoning behind the language is complex. In my graduated school, I knew many friends who didn't have any coding background, but they are doing programmer or developer jobs now. Some of them went to school to study coding, and some of them learned to code by themselves. Their stories are so impressive. I wasn't ready to learn code until I finished my first Chinese book "留学，我的青春呀!" recently. I always want to be a writer and write my own book. I started writing blog three years ago, and I updated my post two to three times every week. As I enjoyed writing , I started to get some followers, likes, and good comments on my blog. Then, I decided to plan my first book. My First...

Three Most Common HTML Form Elements You Should Know

When I visited the Facebook page at the first time, it required me to sign up. Therefore, I completed the sign up form to create my new account. The form is very simple to fill in because it only asks for very common information such as full name, phone number, new password, birthday, and gender. It only took me one or two minutes to finish the form. Not only Social media sites require us to sign up first before we post anything, but many business or eCommerce sites also ask us to create new account before we take any action. For example, when I go to the Origins skin care site, it will pop up a email sign up form window. To encourage new customers to sign up, it gives a 15% off for the first order. It is definitely an attractive call-to-action message. Anyway, if your website requires users to sign up, you need to know how to create a HTML form. Yesterday, I just learned how to build a simple HTML form from Udemy course. And it is not that hard. All you need to kno...
