Let me know what you think of the course. Stef

Welcome to the forum! Stef

Hi, Just do a search for JavaScript loops. Stef

Nope. You can have have an if without an else. But you need an if to have an else. ... This is like a tongue-twister! Stef

No. DOM is a map of the document (web page) represented in a series of programmatic objects. DOM is short for: Document Object Model ... You could replace the word 'model' for map. So we have a bunch of JavaScript objects (as in object oriented programming) that allow you to access and manipulate/change things in the web page. Makes sense?

Hi, On the course home page, you will find a link to download the files. Stef

Hi, I sure can. Send me an email at stefan at killersites.com and I will get you fixed up. Thanks!

If you were to build a full fledged e-commerce site with PHP, I would suggest doing the crud tutorial, the tag cloud, the simple and MVC login system, then do a Laravel walkthrough video. Any modern PHP app of any consequence should be using an MVC framework like Laravel. Stef

Hi, You are right, there have been some changes to the API, so when you get to that point, you will have to change some of the code. But that accounts for about maybe .... 3-5% of the video content. As I say in the intro video for the projects, the projects are just bridging tutorials, to give you ideas on how to take the foundation code to projects. I figure, once you've done 1/2, you will feel comfortable using Paypal's docs on it. They come complete with PHP code samples on implementation. Hope that makes sense? Stef

It is just a convention. Just try the code.

One of the hardest aspects of getting a coding classroom up and running, is just getting the software installed on the workstation. After considering a many options, we decided to go with the web coding languages, since all computers already have the software you need. To teach HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript, all you need is a web browser (Chrome, Firefox etc …) and the built-in simple text editor that comes with Windows, Macs and Chromebooks. … No need to install software! HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript, have all you need! Another advantage of teaching code with the web languages, is that they are the most important languages in coding today. With the web languages, you can teach students to all the major coding / programming concepts, as they learn the most popular languages used in industry today. With HTML5 and CSS3, students learn what is called ‘client side’ coding. They will learn how the visual parts of programs are created. These concepts are universal; so once they learn user interface creation with HTML5 and CSS3, they will know how it is done in just about all programming languages. JavaScript in 2018-19 JavaScript is arguably the most important programming language in the world. JavaScript is used in so many areas of programming (client-side web apps, server apps, ML etc …), and its popularity is only increasing. For example, with JavaScript’s Node.js, Netflix is able to create their amazing video streaming software. If you want your students to learn real-world programming, JavaScript is your language. StudioWeb’s Turn-key Code Curriculum We’ve been working for schools for over 6 years now, and the StudioWeb program and curriculum has been refined based on what teachers and students have taught us. Our code curriculum makes it fun, and easy for both teachers and students: Over 300 short video lessons. Over 1400 engaging quiz questions and coding challenges. 57 assignments and grading rubrics. Auto grading by course, chapter and lesson – teachers don’t need to know code! Gamified engaging learning. With as little as 20 minutes of prep, teachers with no experience with coding can have their classroom up and running! Give us a call to set up a demo … it only takes a few minutes to set up!

console.log is only needed if you want to push something to the log. Remember, log() is a method inside of the console object.

Be sure that the page is not being cached by the web browser. Stef

Depends on the specialization. Some areas you can get in with basic skills, others (like Ai) will require much more. Just start the process and you find your spot.

I think we answered this? Stef

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. If you haven't figured it out yet, please paste your code. Stef

I would have to see the context of the video. That said, remember that JS is read from the top down. So this means you have to be sure code is read into memory before you call it. So if you have inline JS (not in a function) that is calling getElementById on a tag that has not been read into memory, you will get an error.

This is just a Sublime setting I am guessing. Hard for me to tell without seeing it. That said, the key is to have the quotes in proper place.

Hmm ... it has been a while since I looked at this code. Did it resolve itself in the subsequent videos? Stef

Hi, Good questions. I don't believe function names are keywords ... so there would be no conflict if you had a variable named 'alert'. #1. No. They are not the same. #2. Hmm ... this is getting into the details of the JS structure. JS has both functions and methods .... in a practical sense, it is a distinction without a difference, but functions are not methods because functions can exist outside on an object. #3. No Stef

Whichever you choose, just keep it consistent.

Hi, Typically CPANEL is included with so many hosting companies. So I would just find a host that has that. There are several ways to connect to MySQL besides CPANEL. You could connect via command line using SSH. You could use a third party program that works with MySQL ... they almost always allow for remote MySQL connections. Here are the options: Any client for MySQL should work equally well for derived products, such as MySQL Enterprise, Percona Server, MariaDB, etc. Free Clients MySQL Workbench (Mac, Windows, Linux), Free, open-source Sequel Pro (Mac), Free, open-source HeidiSQL (Windows; claims it can run on Mac or Linux using WINE emulator), Free, donation encouraged phpMyAdmin (web app), Free, open-source Toad for MySQL (Windows), Free MySQL-Front (Windows), Free, open-source Neor Profile SQL (Mac, Windows, Linux), Free Commercial Clients with a Free Option DBVisualizer (Mac, Windows, Linux), Free version or Pro (Purchase a DbVisualizer Pro License) dbForge Studio for MySQL (Windows), Free version (Express) or Standard or Pro (Ordering dbForge Studio for MySQL) Valentina Studio (Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS), free or Pro (product category) SQLPro for MySQL (macOS, iOS), free (unlimited with nag) trial. iPhone/iPad version is free for a single connection.

If you want to create a set of tags, you need to create elements/tags ... for example: var para = document.createElement("p"); var node = document.createTextNode("This is new."); para.appendChild(node); So that means, for every tag, you need to create a new element.

Hi, "18" is a string variable and so it is not the same as 18 ... which without quotes, is an int.

Hi, Sniffer is something I just made up. Alert and prompt are methods built into JS.
