More Javascript Fun

We learned more about the DOM and some ways to manipulate it using Javascript. Using loops, variables, arrays, and an arsenal of new syntax and functions we were able to make a nice image gallery. Certainly a start and large step forward in our journey of learning about the dynamic side of web design. I finished the homework this week all today, but I read the lectures throughout the week to let the new concepts sink in. I always refered to by best friend, Google for some supplimental tutorials on the basics of looping and other such things. Another completed week of CIS233 and another stellar lecture series by Steve. Looking forward to Ch10. ~Jason

Javascript

Finished the homework for this week. I skipped the recommended prerequisite class of Javascript171, so this week was by far the most challenging. As a result, I took some initiative and did some research on del.icio.us for Javascripting tutorials. I found a couple that I didn't bother to save but needless to say I've got a solid grasp on the general syntax and structure for variables, loops, functions etc. I'm looking forward to using the Javascript with the DOM to make some snazzy effects next week. As always Steve, you're doing an exemplary job with the screencasts, lectures, and discussions. Thanks. ~Jason
