DOM Manipulation
Learn to interact with web pages: select, modify, create elements and handle events
Course Overview
The DOM (Document Object Model) is your gateway to creating interactive web pages. Learn how to select elements, modify content dynamically, create new elements on the fly, and respond to user interactions. This is where JavaScript brings web pages to life!
1. Selecting Elements
Section 1Before you can change anything on a web page, you need to tell JavaScript which element you want to work with. It's like pointing at something and saying "I want to change THAT!"
2. Modifying Elements
Section 2Once you've selected an element, you can change almost anything about it! This is where your web pages come alive.
3. Creating Elements
Section 3Sometimes you need to add completely new elements to the page - like adding items to a shopping cart or messages to a chat. JavaScript lets you create elements from scratch!
4. Event Handling
Section 4Events are how your web page responds to user actions - clicks, typing, hovering, and more. It's like setting up a listener that waits for something to happen!
