An Introduction to JavaScript

What is JavaScript?
- High-level, interpreted scripting language.
- Client-side & server-side scripting.
- Used for web page interactivity, forms, animations, AJAX.

JavaScript DOM Model


- Document Object Model (DOM) represents HTML elements.
- Allows dynamic interaction with web pages.
- Common methods: [Link](), [Link](),
[Link] / [Link]
- Example:
[Link]("demo").innerHTML = "Hello World!";

Exception Handling
- Mechanism to handle runtime errors.
- Keywords: try, catch, finally, throw.
- Example:
try {
let result = 10 / 0;
} catch (err) {
[Link]("Error:", [Link]);
} finally {
[Link]("Execution completed.");
}

Validation
- Ensures user input meets requirements.
- Methods: isNaN(), regex, length.
- Example:
function validateForm() {
let x = [Link]["myForm"]["username"].value;
if (x == "") {
alert("Name must be filled out");
return false;
}
}

Built-in Objects
- Math – mathematical operations.
- Date – date and time.
- String – string manipulation.
- Array – array methods.
- JSON – parse/stringify JSON.
- Example:
let num = [Link]([Link]() * 10);
[Link](num);

Event Handling
- Respond to events like clicks, mouse moves, key presses.
- Methods: HTML event attributes or addEventListener().
- Example:
[Link]("btn").addEventListener("click", function() {
alert("Button clicked!");
});

DHTML with JavaScript


- Dynamic HTML combines HTML, CSS, JS for interactive pages.
- Features: dynamic content update, animations, interactive forms.
- Example:
function changeColor() {
[Link]("demo").[Link] = "red";
}

Summary
- JavaScript enables dynamic, interactive web pages.
- Key concepts: DOM, exception handling, validation, built-in objects, events, DHTML.
