# Day 21

|
|
## Document Object Model (DOM) - Day 1
|
|
|
|
HTML document is structured as a JavaScript Object. Every HTML element has a different properties which can help to manipulate it. It is possible to get, create, append or remove HTML elements using JavaScript. Check the examples below. Selecting HTML element using JavaScript is similar to selecting using CSS. To select an HTML element, we use tag name, id, class name or other attributes.
|
|
|
|
### Getting Element
|
|
|
|
We can access already created element or elements using JavaScript. To access or get elements we use different methods. The code below has four _h1_ elements. Let us see the different methods to access the _h1_ elements.
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
|
<html lang="en">
|
|
<head>
|
|
<title>Document Object Model</title>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<body>
|
|
|
|
<h1 class='title' id='first-title'>First Title</h1>
|
|
<h1 class='title' id='second-title'>Second Title</h1>
|
|
<h1 class='title' id='third-title'>Third Title</h1>
|
|
<h1></h1>
|
|
|
|
</body>
|
|
</html>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Getting elements by tag name
|
|
|
|
**_getElementsByTagName()_**:takes a tag name as a string parameter and this method returns an HTMLCollection object. An HTMLCollection is an array like object of HTML elements. The length property provides the size of the collection. Whenever we use this method we access the individual elements using index or after loop through each individual items. An HTMLCollection does not support all array methods therefore we should use regular for loop instead of forEach.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// syntax
|
|
document.getElementsByTagName('tagname')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const allTitles = document.getElementsByTagName('h1')
|
|
|
|
console.log(allTitles) //HTMLCollections
|
|
console.log(allTitles.length) // 4
|
|
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < allTitles.length; i++) {
|
|
console.log(allTitles[i]) // prints each elements in the HTMLCollection
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Getting elements by class name
|
|
|
|
**_getElementsByClassName()_** method returns an HTMLCollection object. An HTMLCollection is an array like list of HTML elements. The length property provides the size of the collection. It is possible to loop through all the HTMLCollection elements. See the example below
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
//syntax
|
|
document.getElementsByClassName('classname')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const allTitles = document.getElementsByClassName('title')
|
|
|
|
console.log(allTitles) //HTMLCollections
|
|
console.log(allTitles.length) // 4
|
|
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < allTitles.length; i++) {
|
|
console.log(allTitles[i]) // prints each elements in the HTMLCollection
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Getting an element by id
|
|
|
|
**_getElementsById()_** targets a single HTML element. We pass the id without # as an argument.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
//syntax
|
|
document.getElementById('id')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let firstTitle = document.getElementById('first-title')
|
|
console.log(firstTitle) // <h1>First Title</h1>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Getting elements by using querySelector methods
|
|
|
|
The _document.querySelector_ method can select an HTML or HTML elements by tag name, by id or by class name.
|
|
|
|
**_querySelector_**: can be used to select HTML element by its tag name, id or class. If the tag name is used it selects only the first element.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let firstTitle = document.querySelector('h1') // select the first available h1 element
|
|
let firstTitle = document.querySelector('#first-title') // select id with first-title
|
|
let firstTitle = document.querySelector('.title') // select the first available h1 element with class title
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**_querySelectorAll_**: can be used to select html element by its tag name or class. It return a nodeList which is an array like object which support array methods. We can use **_for loop_** or **_forEach_** to loop through each nodeList elements.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const allTitles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
|
|
console.log(allTitles.length) // 4
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < allTitles.length; i++) {
|
|
console.log(allTitles[i])
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
allTitles.forEach(title => console.log(title))
|
|
const allTitles = document.querySelectorAll('.title') // the same goes for selecting using class
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Adding attribute
|
|
|
|
An attribute is added in the opening tag of HTML which gives additional information about the element. Common HTML attributes: id, class, src, style, href,disabled, title, alt. Lets add id and class for the fourth title.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles[3].className = 'title'
|
|
titles[3].id = 'fourth-title'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Adding attribute using setAttribute
|
|
|
|
The **_setAttribute()_** method set any html attribute. It takes two parameters the type of the attribute and the name of the attribute.
|
|
Let's add class and id attribute for the fourth title.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles[3].setAttribute('class', 'title')
|
|
titles[3].setAttribute('id', 'fourth-title')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Adding attribute without setAttribute
|
|
|
|
We can use normal object setting method to set an attribute but this can not work for all elements. Some attributes are DOM object property and they can be set directly. For instance id and class
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
//another way to setting an attribute
|
|
titles[3].className = 'title'
|
|
titles[3].id = 'fourth-title'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Adding class using classList
|
|
|
|
The class list method is a good method to append additional class. It does not override the original class if a class exists rather it adds additional class for the element.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
//another way to setting an attribute: append the class, doesn't over ride
|
|
titles[3].classList.add('title', 'header-title')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Removing class using remove
|
|
|
|
Similar to adding we can also remove class from an element. We can remove a specific class from an element.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
//another way to setting an attribute: append the class, doesn't over ride
|
|
titles[3].classList.remove('title', 'header-title')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Adding Text to HTML element
|
|
|
|
An HTML is a build block of an opening tag, a closing tag and a text content. We can add a text content using the property _textContent_ or \*innerHTML.
|
|
|
|
#### Adding Text content using textContent
|
|
|
|
The _textContent_ property is used to add text to an HTML element.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles[3].textContent = 'Fourth Title'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Adding Text Content using innerHTML
|
|
|
|
Most people get confused between _textContent_ and _innerHTML_. _textContent_ is meant to add text to an HTML element, however innerHTML can add a text or HTML element or elements as a child.
|
|
|
|
##### Text Content
|
|
|
|
We assign *textContent* HTML object property to a text
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles[3].textContent = 'Fourth Title'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### Inner HTML
|
|
|
|
We use innerHTML property when we like to replace or a completely new children content to a parent element.
|
|
It value we assign is going to be a string of HTML elements.
|

const ul = document.querySelector('ul')
|
|
ul.innerHTML = lists
|
|
</script>
|
|
</body>
|
|
</html>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The innerHTML property can allow us also to remove all the children of a parent element. Instead of using removeChild() I would recommend the following method.
|
|
|
|
```html
|

ul.innerHTML = ''

</html>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Adding style
|
|
|
|
#### Adding Style Color
|
|
|
|
Let us add some style to our titles. If the element has even index we give it green color else red.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles.forEach((title, i) => {
|
|
title.style.fontSize = '24px' // all titles will have 24px font size
|
|
if (i % 2 === 0) {
|
|
title.style.color = 'green'
|
|
} else {
|
|
title.style.color = 'red'
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Adding Style Background Color
|
|
|
|
Let us add some style to our titles. If the element has even index we give it green color else red.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles.forEach((title, i) => {
|
|
title.style.fontSize = '24px' // all titles will have 24px font size
|
|
if (i % 2 === 0) {
|
|
title.style.backgroundColor = 'green'
|
|
} else {
|
|
title.style.backgroundColor = 'red'
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Adding Style Font Size
|
|
|
|
Let us add some style to our titles. If the element has even index we give it 20px else 30px
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const titles = document.querySelectorAll('h1')
|
|
titles.forEach((title, i) => {
|
|
title.style.fontSize = '24px' // all titles will have 24px font size
|
|
if (i % 2 === 0) {
|
|
title.style.fontSize = '20px'
|
|
} else {
|
|
title.style.fontSize = '30px'
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As you have notice, the properties of css when we use it in JavaScript is going to be a camelCase. The following CSS properties change from background-color to backgroundColor, font-size to fontSize, font-family to fontFamily, margin-bottom to marginBottom.
|
