Purpose of this chapter
The authors cite the first example of dynamically creating a list of abbreviations (abbreviation) for a Web page. As you know, we can use <abbr>...</abbr> to indicate an abbreviation, such as <abbr title= "Document Object Model" >DOM</ABBR> The title attribute indicates the full name of the abbreviation. All we have to do is find out all the <abbr> and its corresponding title in the article, summarize it, and then display the abbreviation table at the end of the document. The final effect should look like this:
Specific steps
We can do it in three steps:
- Traverse document for information
- Create label wrapper information
- Inserting tags into a WEB document
The specific JS code is as follows:
1 //JavaScript Document2 functiondisplayabbreviations () {3 if(!document.getelementsbytagname | |!document.createelement | |!document.createtextnode)return false;4 //Get all Acronyms5 varAbbreviations=document.getelementsbytagname ("abbr");6 if(abbreviations.length<1)return false;7 vardefs=NewArray ();8 //Traverse these acronyms9 for(vari=0;i<abbreviations.length;i++){Ten varCurrent_abbr=Abbreviations[i]; One if(current_abbr.childnodes.length<1)Continue; A varDefinition=current_abbr.getattribute ("title"); - varkey=Current_abbr.lastChild.nodeValue; -defs[key]=definition; the } - //Create a definition list - varDlist=document.createelement ("DL"); - for(Keyinchdefs) { + varDefiniton =Defs[key]; - varDtitle=document.createelement ("DT"); + vardtitle_text=document.createTextNode (key); A Dtitle.appendchild (dtitle_text); at varDdesc=document.createelement ("DD"); - varddesc_text=document.createtextnode (definition); - Ddesc.appendchild (ddesc_text); - Dlist.appendchild (dtitle); - Dlist.appendchild (DDESC); - } in if(dlist.childnodes.length<1)return false; - varHeader=document.createelement ("H2"); to varHeader_text=document.createtextnode ("Abbreviations"); + Header.appendchild (header_text); - Document.body.appendChild (header); the Document.body.appendChild (dlist); * } $ Panax Notoginseng //function is called when the page is loaded -Addloadevent (displayabbreviations);
Here the emphasis is placed on the 18 line for the (variable in array) traversal of all elements of the array!!
Summarize
(1) using the correct label to build the page is the premise of using JS to promote the content of the page
(2) using JS to enhance the content of the page than directly in the page to add tags, more flexible, efficient, automatic, easy to modify.
(3) You can use the technical area described in this chapter to write some scripts, extract the document title at the beginning as can reach the relevant title of the internal link (can refer to the online information to complete)
