Alerts, Prompts and Confirm in Javascript

Kenechukwu Nwobodo — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 06:02:00 +0000

They are quite some Javascript functions, I discovered that quite a few beginners may really in need of or might need a better understanding of the functionality and how they interact with the browsers.

Firstly, we will be looking into Alert. Hmmmm, not like credit alerts 🙂, so you don't have to get your hopes up so high.😄

• What is alert ?
Basically alert makes use of a modal to display messages to the users (visitors of the website) in the browsers.

Let's take a look at the code below,

• What is Prompt ?
Prompts enables the owner of the website to ask users/ visitors question(s) before they proceed to using the website.
Eg.

• What is confirm ?
Confirm looks like prompts in terms of the syntax but with the exception that it does not give an optional reply.

Disadvantages of making use of this Javascript interaction functions.

• The browser displays it's where it wants it to be displayed. Mostly it's in the top center of the webpage.
• You can't format like increase the width, add color to the modal etc.
• You must opt out by clicking ok, cancel or ESC key before you continue using the webpage.

Aaya, this are all I can come up with for now, please kindly write under the comment section of they is anything you may wish to add to it or any corrections to the article. This would so mean mean alot to someone out there.

Thank you for reading!

Which Language do you Find the hardest ?

Kenechukwu Nwobodo — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 15:47:40 +0000

I guess as a beginner in programming, we tend to be so much in a hurry that we forget to give some languages the patience and time it needs.

Today, I would like you to share the programming language that you found hard when you started programming .

Some would say Javascript, I would say Javascript cuz I rushed it and didn't give myself enough time to really understand the concept.

What about you ???

Underestanding Types of Quotes In JavaScript and Their Uses.

Kenechukwu Nwobodo — Wed, 22 Jul 2020 06:11:01 +0000

This article could be very useful to beginners or maybe even junior developers that makes use of Javascript to write their codes.

Yeah, don't ask me if am a pro, cuz I am not.😄 I did better get started before I end up writing upto 200 lines in this short insight am about to reveal to someone today.

Alright so, I would love to say that they are three types of quotes, oh yeah atleast for now, incase you happen to know any other one, pls kindly drop as a comment.

These quotes includes:
° Double quotes i.e ""
• single quote i.e ''
And lastly, we have,
Guess ? It out☺️, eerhm don't worry it's right below.

•Backticks ``
Permit me to share d this short story before I continue.
The main reason why I decided to share this article was because of the last type of quote mentioned herein - the backticks.
When I started learning programming, I never took cognizance of it. It was actually a knowledge, I passed by but am happy that I have across it and eventually learnt it's functionality and scope.

Alright, I think I have to continue now. Okay, so basically the double quotes and single quotes are used to enclose strings in Javascript. Both does the same work actually. For example, the variable name is assigned with a string, Kenechukwu and it's enclosed with a single quote.

This is exactly the same with the same string enclosed with a double quote as seen below. Both of them will produce the same outcome.

And then lastly, we will talk about the backticks, which are used to embed a strings with Javascript variables as seen below.

Yeah, don't forget I told you this is gonna be a short article. If they are more quotes used in Javascript that are no here, pls feel free to comment.

I am just a dude revising and sharing my Javascript knowledge.

Thank you for reading!
