Seven Most Common jQuery Methods Part Two: ATTR() and VAL()

.attr()

According to jQuery, it can get the value of an attribute for the first element in the set of matched elements or set one or more attributes for every matched element.

So I use the img tag to add an apple image at the bottom of the page.

Now I want to change the apple image to a banana image, so I select the img first, and change the "src" attribute value to a new image address.

$("img").attr("src", "the new image address")

If I want to change the input type from text to color, I can write: $("input").attr("type", "color"). As the result, the input box changes to a color input.

.val()

According to jQuery, this method gets the current value of the first element in the set of matched elements or set the value of every matched element.

I type my name in the input, and then I call my name in the console by typing $("input").val().

If I want to update the input name, I can write the new name inside the val().

What is Git? According to Git website , Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Basically, we can use Git to track all of changes and revert them back if we made mistakes.

Intermediate Express.Js: Write Conditions and Loops In The EJS (study note)

We continue to use the app.js which we have build to be the study example. In the last post, we only add a simple EJS tag <%= thingVar %> inside h1 tag. This will match the "thing" to any "thing" request from the user. If Statement Today, the course shows us to write a simple if statement in the EJS file. I learn to apply it to my own app. In the if statement, if users send"/wantto/workout" request, the page will show a new content "Good Idea!". We wrote the if statement in the "diet.ejs" file, and we add "<% %>" tags around the code. We have to wrap every line of JavaScript anytime JavaScript starts and ends. Moreover, you may see there are two types of ejs tags here: <%= %> The one with equal sign. According to the course, when we add equal sign, the value that is returned inside of the tag will be rendered to the HTML page. it will be added to the HTML. For example, if we write ...

Express.js Study Note: Route Order Is Matters!

Last post, I have learned to develop my first Express App from the course. Basically, it has three routes. When we type "/", "/bye" and "/cat", the app will receive the request and send the matched response to us. But, if we want to send a nice message when users type other texts after slash, what should we do? We can write a "*" route which will run whenever out app gets any request to any url aside from those three routes that we have already defined. app.get("*", function) In the App.js file, we add a new star route, and it will send you a new message whenever you type any undefined request. I run my app, and put some random texts after slash, and hit enter. All I get is "You are a star!". If we move the star route to the top of those three routes, what will happen? The instructor run the app, the result is even though we send the "/", "/bye" or "/cat" request, all we get...
