Course Description:

'' With our five week self-directed introductory course, you will learn what JavaScript is, how it works, and how you can use it to organize your web pages. This introductory JavaScript course will teach you how to spruce up a web site! If you know a little HTML, then you can learn JavaScript. It’’s really an easy language to learn. JavaScript is not a programming language with its many rules, regulations and syntax. JavaScript is a scripting language and scripting languages are much easier to learn than true programming languages.

Learn how to make your web pages come alive with JavaScript! JavaScript is an extension of HTML that allows you to add interactivity to your web site that you cannot do with ordinary HTML. You can learn to create animated text or graphics, change background colors, spew random phrases at the click of a button, work in a digital clock, create scrolling text in a box or on the status line, show off your artwork in an interactive portfolio, change images without reloading the web page, and so on. There is virtually no limit to what you can do to spice up a web site! These lessons can have a major impact on your web site presentation.

This course is the preferred course by many web developers, schools and colleges. Although this course does assume that you have some familiarity with HTML, it assumes NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE of JavaScript.

* Understand the power and functionality of JavaScript.

Learn JavaScript All By Yourself is the culmination of John’’s efforts to produce the best self-tutoring course available today. This is the course to take if you have little or no previous experience in JavaScript.

If you wish to be assessed, there is an assignment that can be completed at the conclusion of the course.

Week 1:
In this first week you will be introduced to JavaScript. You will learn about the different versions of JavaScript and why you should learn JavaScript.

JavaScript is built on the concept of Objects and so this week you will be introduced to Object Oriented Programming.


Week 2:
This week you will study objects and methods, event handlers, Alert window, Confirm window, Prompt window, comment lines in a JavaScript program and the noscript tag.

As taught in Week 1, JavaScript is built on this concept of Objects. JavaScript provides a good collection of objects for you to work with. While you can easily create new objects, the ones that are provided give a great deal of power. That is why you need to understand the concept of Objects and Methods. An Object can be considered to be one of the most important elements in JavaScript.

Week 3:
In this week you will study JavaScript colors and how to change background colors on demand. You will also study the following event handlers: onFocus, onBlur, onClick, onReset, onSubmit, onAbort, onChange, and onSelect.

Event handlers trigger events. A number of event handlers are associated with JavaScript. Our objective this week is to study and apply these important and popular event handlers to a number of different situations.

Week 4:
Now you will study the heart of JavaScript: understanding variables, assignment statements, variable names, types of variables, declaring variables, list of reserved variable names, if statements, comparison operators, logical operators, multiple conditions, and rounding off numbers.

Our objective this week is to study the various parts of a JavaScript statement. Every JavaScript consists of a group of lines called statements and these statements can contain a variety of different things such as variables, if statements, etc.
Week 5:
In this concluding week, we will concentrate on digital Clocks and the Date object. You will study and design various digital clocks and use them to generate personal responses for your visitors.

Greeting visitors with a personalized comment can be a very nice and effective way to greet new comers to your web site. The objective for this week is to study various digital clocks and how to use them to your advantage in your web pages.

If you like this course, we invite you to complete also our 5 week advanced JavaScript course written by the same author, John Gilson.
