Javascript Message in a Bottle
Another from the department of uses-the-syntax-so-infrequentyly-I-nearly-always-forget.
This time, in conversation with a colleague, we were discussing the advantages and disadvantages between explicit inline javascript embedded in html tags and wiring up events in an external js file.
Embarrasingly, despite the amount of time I have spent working in jQuery and javascript I found I couldn't remember the exact syntax in plain old javascript.
So this is a message to my future self, who will forget again before too long :)
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="example.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World</h1>
</body>
</html>function init() {
alert("Window Loaded");
}
function onClick() {
alert("Click");
}
window.onload = init;
window.onclick = onClick;
