JavaScript Basic: Prompt & Console.log Exercise


Today the course assigned a simple JavaScript exercise:

Here is my steps:

Step One: Create a HTML page and link to the JavaScript File

I create a simple HTML page and give a title "JS Stalker Exercise". Then, I link the HTML page to a new JS file named "stalker.js".


Step Two: Enter variable data in the JS file

In the JS file, I start to write three prompt messages which are asking for user's first name, last name and age.


In order to print out user's full name and age in separate sentences, I set two console.log message. The only thing we need to pay attention is the spacing between each word. 

The print sentence has one small space between each word : Your full name is X X. Therefore, in the console.log, we need to set the right space for each word.

Step Three: Test the result

When I open the page, it asks me three pop up questions in orders:



After I answer each questions, I can see the print sentences in the console.

Intro to Backend: Is Browser The Only Place To Send HTTP Request?

Today,  I begin to learn the second part of web develop course: backend. Frontend is the stuff that we can see and interactive with, such as HTML, CSS, and JS. We can type our code, style our page, or write some function to make interaction. However, backend is everything else. For example, we type Target web address in the Internet Browser. As we hit "enter", there are a few steps to go through: 1. The HTTP request is sent to a particular server's IP address. 2. The server figures out what to send us 3. It sends a HTTP response back to us Those process we are hard to see, and it happens in less than one second. The instructor said that the browser is not the only place to send the HTTP request, and there are so many choices out there. In this learning course, we are going to use Postman App . Postman allows us to make HTTP requests and viewer responses. It is really for developers to understand how things are working or debug something. In the P...

Step Two: Set Image Property Values We set the width of each photo the same value which is 30%, so there will be three images per line. The percentage value can help...
