Lab 10: JavaScript for the Web

Challenge

Experiment with DOM manipulation with a partner.

Problems

Making buttons is kind of hard. But blending css, html, and javascript has been ridicously difficult. Below I will mentioned how I solved my problems

I needed to look up videos and ask other friends to understand what I'm doing. This was my main support for this lab
I messed up the Javascript a few times
Everything was working, but making the CSS was really confusing for me. I used the example and what I learned in section to help with this. I also used chatgpt to add the nth part to make it seem like text messages
My Javascript wasn't showing up in my final live browser

I tried to watch tutorials on youtube again. I also referred back to lecture slides and my section notes as much as I could, plus the assignment itself (that helped me the most). I used chatgpt to understand what i'm doing but nothing too crazy

Reflection

I probably worked for about 8 hours on this assignment trying to figure out what mistakes I made plus trying to figure out what I'm doing in the first place. Referring to Wes modes' website helped me a lot in this process. The main thing I could have worked on is time management. I feel like I'm a little lost at the moment, but I don't even have time to focus in this class because I'm trying to balance other classes at the same time

Results

Look below for the html page. You will see my javascript in the script output section. I worked the harderst for the javascript part! Overall, I would say I'm a little lost, but I got everything to work- so hopefully I'm understanding everything correctly!
