JavaScript usage
JavaScript Usage
Scripts in HTML must be located between the <script> and </script> tags.
Scripts can be placed in the <body> and <head> sections of the HTML page.
<script> Tag
To insert JavaScript into an HTML page, use the <script> tag.
<script> and </script> tell JavaScript where to start and end. The line of code between
<script> and </script> contains JavaScript:
<script>
alert("My first JavaScript ");
</script>
You don't need to understand the above code. Just understand that the browser interprets and executes the JavaScript code between <script> and </script>.
##<body> JavaScript
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>PHP中文网(php.cn)</title> </head> <body> <p> JavaScript 能够直接写入 HTML 输出流中: </p> <script> document.write("<h1>这是一个标题</h1>"); document.write("<p>这是一个段落。</p>"); </script> <p> 您只能在 HTML 输出流中使用 <strong>document.write</strong>。 如果您在文档已加载后使用它(比如在函数中),会覆盖整个文档。 </p> </body> </html>Run the program to try it
JavaScript functions and events
JavaScript in <head> or <body>
##JavaScript function in<head>
In this example, we place a JavaScript function in The <head> portion of the HTML page.
This function will be called when the button is clicked:
Example<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>PHP中文网(php.cn)</title>
<script>
function myFunction(){
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML="我的第一个 JavaScript 函数";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>我的 Web 页面</h1>
<p id="demo">一个段落。</p>
<button type="button" onclick="myFunction()">点击这里</button>
</body>
</html>
Run the program to try it
<body> JavaScript function in
In this example, we place a JavaScript function in the < of the HTML page ;body> section.
This function will be called when the button is clicked:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>PHP中文网(php.cn)</title> </head> <body> <h1>我的第一个 Web 页面</h1> <p id="demo">一个段落。</p> <button type="button" onclick="myFunction()">点击这里</button> <script> function myFunction(){ document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML="我的第一个 JavaScript 函数"; } </script> </body> </html>
Run the program to try it
External JavaScript
You can also save the script to an external file. External files often contain code used by multiple web pages.
The file extension for external JavaScript files is .js.
If you need to use an external file, please set the .js file in the "src" attribute of the <script> tag:
Example
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>PHP中文网(php.cn)</title> </head> <body> <h1>我的 Web 页面</h1> <p id="demo">一个段落。</p> <button type="button" onclick="myFunction()">点击这里</button> <p><b>注释:</b>myFunction 保存在名为 "myScript.js" 的外部文件中。</p> <script src="myScript.js"></script> </body> </html>
You can place the script in <head> or <body> and the actual effect will be exactly the same as if you wrote the script in the <script> tag.
myScript.js file code is as follows:
function myFunction(){
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML="My first JavaScript function";}
Note: External scripts cannot contain <script> tags.
