DOM Manipulation

Can you really manipulate The DOM though?

Yea I didn't think so... Thankfully we're not talking about that Dom.

Today we're going to be practicing DOM manipulation and event handling.

Learning Objectives

• DOM Manipulation
• Event Handling

Resources

This DOM Gist has a helpful section on DOM querying and creation

Setup

You're provided a basic website with included index.html, style.css, and script.js plus a new file type called a TTF File for fonts. All of your work will go in script.js - you shouldn't have to edit index.html or style.css. Please create individual functions for each solution. Don't forget to call the function once you're finished. All of the files you need can be accessed by navigating to your hw folder in your terminal and running the following commands one by one.

Enter your software_homework/unit_1 directory

pwd

The above command will ensure that you check that you are in the correct folder

  git clone https://github.com/arthurbernierjr/native-dom-manipulation-lab.git ./manipulate-the-dom

This command will copy my starter code from github enterprise that is at https://github.com/arthurbernierjr/native-dom-manipulation-lab.git and put it into a folder called manipulate-the-dom for you, you may have to login to github enterprise with your user name and password

  cd manipulate-the-dom

This command will change into the manipulate-the-dom directory that we just made

  git remote remove origin

This command will remove the connection between my repository and your folder. This will allow you to go to github.com/new and create a blank repo, and add that blank repo as your new origin with git remote add origin LINKTOREPOHERE, then you can git add -A and git commit -m "message" and git push origin master as needed.

Give it your best shot!

Accessing DOM Elements (Querying)

Let's start with some simple query selecting.

Part 1

DOM's personal website title is a bit wordy. Write a JavaScript statement that selects the #main-title ID element. Remember there are a couple of ways to query id. Change the text of the title to something shorter.

Part 2

Select the body and change the background-color to a new color of your choice.

Part 3

Select DOM's Favorite Things list and remove the last list item.

Part 4

Select all .special-title class elements and change their font-size to 2rem. Remember you might have to iterate through the list of elements

Part 5

Turns out DOM never raced in Chicago. Access the Past Races list and remove Chicago.

Creating New DOM Elements

Part 6

Let's add to DOM's Past Races list. Create a new <li> element, change the new <li> text to the name of a city, and append it to the Past Races list.

Part 7

Create a new .blog-post corresponding to the new city added in Part 6. You will have to create a new <div> with class of .blog-post, a new <h2> with text, and a new <p> with some text. Think about what order you want to create the elements, and what order you want to append them in.

Event Handlers

Part 8

When you reload the page, the script.js file loads a random DOM quote. Let's play with the included function:

const randomQuote = function() {
  document.querySelector('#quote-of-the-day').innerText = `"${quotes[Math.floor(Math.random() * quotes.length)]}"`;
};

Query select the #quote-title ID element and add a click event handler. That event handler should use the function randomQuote whenever #quote-title is clicked.

Part 9

Select all .blog-post class elements. Iterate through the list of .blog-post class elements and apply two event handlers to each node. The first event handler should be listening for mouseout events while the second handler should be listening for mouseenter events.

• The mouseout handler should toggle the class .purple
• The mouseenter handler should toggle the class .red

Test it out!

Hint:

Remember the document node property .classList and the document node method .toggle().
