The JavaScript Execution Environment


• Browsers display XHTML documents in a
window, which is an object in its own right.
JavaScript has a Window object that represents
the window displaying the document.
• All JavaScripts can see the various properties
of the Window object.
• Every Window has a Document object that
represents the display XHTML documents,
which has properties of its own.

The Document Object Model


• DOM (Document Object Model) is an API
(Application Programming Interface) that defines an
interface between HTML documents and application
program.
• It is an abstract model that applies to a variety of
programming language.
• Essentially, the various structures in an HTML
document that are marked up with tags are considered
objects, complete with properties and methods.
• The attributes of an HTML tag corresponds to a
property for the corresponding object.

DOM – An Example
• The following tag:
<input type = "text"
name = "address">
corresponds to an object, which has two
properties type (which is text) and name
(which is address).

4
Element Access in JavaScript
• Manipulating elements in an HTML document
requires that you have the address of the
corresponding object.
• This can be handled in several different ways,
depending on which version of DOM to which
you seek to conform.
• The address of a JavaScript object associated
with an HTML element is called its DOM
address.

Sample XHTML document


<html lang = "en">
<head> <title> Access to form elements </title>
<meta charset = "utf-8" />
</head>

<body>
<form name = "myForm" action = "">
<input type = "button" name = "turnItOn">
</form>
</body>
</html>

5
Getting the DOM Address
• We can use the forms and elements arrays:
var dom = document.forms[0].elements[0];
If another button were added before turnItOn, the address
could no longer be accessed this way.
• We can use the name given to the item (this requires that every
enclosing item (up to but not including body) must have a
name:
var dom = document.myForm.turnItOn;

The problem is that XHTML 1.1 does not allow forms to have
a name. This causes a validation problem.

getElementById
• A better way involves using getElementById:
var dom = document.getElementById("turnItOn");

• Since ids are useful for DOM addressing and


form processing frequently requires name, it is
not unusual for form elements to have both set
to the same value.
• Since buttons in a group of checkboxes often
share a name and a group of radio buttons will
share a name, this won't work in finding their
DOM addresses.

6
Checkboxes

<form id = "vehicleGroup">
<input type = "checkbox name = "vehicles"
value = "car" /> Car
<input type = "checkbox name = "vehicles"
value = "truck" /> Truck
<input type = "checkbox name = "vehicles"
value = "bike" /> Bike
</form>
… …

var numChecked = 0;
var dom = document.getElementById("vehicleGroup");
for (index = 0; index < dom.vehicles.length; index++)
if (dom.vehicles[index].checked)
numChecked++;

Events and Event Handling


• The DOM 0 event model is somewhat limited
in scope, but it is the only model supported by
all browsers that support JavaScript.
• The DOM 2 model is supported by the Firefox
version 2 (but not Internet Explorer, not even
version 7).

7
Basic Concepts of Event Handling
• An event is a notification that something specific has
happened, such as when a document finishes loading,
a button is pushed or contents of a textbox is
changed.
• An event handler is a script that is implicitly executed
in response to an event happening.
• Event-driven programming is when parts of the
programming are executed in an unpredictable
sequence in response to specific events.

Events in JavaScript

• Events are objects in JavaScript with case-sensitive names, all


of which are lower-case.
• Events are created by activities associated with specific
elements of XHTML, e.g., clicking a radio button.
• The process of connecting an event handler to an event is
called registration. Registration can be done by:
– Assigning tag attributes
– Assigning handler addresses to object properties.
• Write should not be used in an event handler because it is
asynchronous and thus what you write in the XHTML
document is unpredictable.

8
Events, Attributes and Tags
• The same attribute can appear in several
different tags.
• An XHTML element is said to get focus when
the user puts the mouse over it and left-clicks
or tabs over to the element.
• An element gets blurred when the user move
the cursor away and left-clicks or when (s)he
tabs away.

Registering an Event Handler

• There are a few ways of registering an event handler


in DOM 0:
– Assigning an event handler script to an event tag attribute:
<input type = "button" id = “myButton"
onclick = "alert(You clicked my button!’);" />
– Assigning an event to a function:
<input type = "button" id = "myButton"
onclick = "myButtonHandler();“ />
– Assigning to the associate event property on the button
object:
document.getElementById("myButton").onclick
= myButtonHandler;

Handling Events from Body Elements


• The events most often created by body
elements are load and unload.
• The unload even is probably more useful than
the load event; we can use it to do some
cleanup before a document is unloaded.

12

<!DOCTYPE html>
<!-- load.html

<html lang = "en">

</script>
</head>
<body onload = "loadGreeting();">
<p />
</body>
</html>

// An example to illustrate the load event

// The onload event handler


function loadGreeting() {
alert("You are visiting the home page of \n"
+ "Pete's Pickled Peppers\n"
+ "WELCOME!!!");
}

13
Handling Events from Button Elements
• Buttons provide a simple and effective way to
get input in a web document.
• The most commonly used event created by
button actions is click.

Plain Buttons
• A plain button represents a simple situation.
• Let's assume that we create the button:
<input type = "button"
name = "freeOffer"
id = "freeButton">
• We can register a handler for this button:
<input type = "button" name = "freeButton" id =
"freeButton" onclick = "freeButtonHandler();" />
• Or we can register it by writing:
document.getElementById("freeButton").onclick
= freeButtonHandler();

14
Radio Buttons
• Radio buttons handle a choice made from a set
of options.
• In the following example, the calls to the event
handlers send the value of the pressed radio
button to the handler.

break;

case 210:
alert("A six-place high-performance"
+ " airplane");
break;

17
default:
alert("Error in JavaScript function"
+ " planeChoice");
break;
}
}

Registering an Event Hamdler by Assignment

• An event handler can be registered by assigning the


name of the handler to the event properties of the
radio button objects.
• Example:
document.getElementById
("myForm").elements[0].onclick
= planeChoice;
• This statement must follow both the handler function
and the XHTML form specifications so that
JavaScript has been able to see both.

22
Handling Events from Text Box and
Password Elements
• Text boxes and password boxes can create four
distinct events:
– blur
– focus
– change
– select

The Focus Event


• Focus occurs when a mouse hover over a given
element and the mouse pointer is clicked.
• Blurring occurs when this focus is removed.
• This can be useful if there are fields on the
form that should not be changed.
• Example:
– A order pay where the client precalculates the
price and we wish not to allow the user to alter the
price being charged.

nochange.js
// This script illustrates using the focus event

function computeCost() {
var french
= document.getElementById("french").value;
var hazelnut
= document.getElementById("hazelnut").value;
var columbian
= document.getElementById("columbian").value;

26
// Compute the cost
document.getElementById("cost").value =
totalCost = french * 3.49 + hazelnut * 3.95
+ columbian * 4.59;
}

Validating Form Input


• Validating form input on the client side using
JavaScript results in a faster-responding server and
less Internet traffic.
• If incorrect data is entered, the JavaScript function
should:
– produce an alert message about the erroneous entry.
– put the relevant input element in focus. This is done by
writing:
document.getElementById("phone").focus();
– select the element, highlighting it. This is done by writing:
document.getElementById("phone").select();

27
Handling Invalid Input
• The handler should return false to tell the
browser not to perform any default actions.
This prevents bad data from being sent to the
server.
• Checking passwords involve making sure that
the original entry is made and that the second
entry matches it. It should be called if the
second entry blurs or if the submit button is
pressed.

29
Checking the Forms of a Name and Telephone
Number

• A name should be in a standard format; in this case it's


LastName, FirstName, MiddleInitial. The pattern
/^[A-Z][a-z]+, ?[A-Z][a-z]+, ?[A-Z]\.?$/
ensures that it is a last name beginning with a capital letter, a
comma and optional space, a first name beginning with a
capital letter, a comma and optional space, a capital letter and
an optional period.
• The anchors ^ and $ ensure that there is no other text in the
box.
• Similarly, the phone number is checked with the pattern
/^d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4}$/
which ensure that there are 3, 3, and 4 digits separated by
dashed with nothing else in the box.

The DOM 2 Event model


• The DOM 2 event model does not include the
features of the DOM 1 event model. But
without IE supporting it, there has not yet been
a rush to move to it.
• The DOM 2 model is a model with a modular
interface.
• One of its modules is Events, which has
several submodules including HTMLEvents
and MouseEvents.

34
HTMLEvents and MouseEvents
Module Event Interface Event Types

HTMLEvents Event abort, blur, change, error,


focus, load, reset, resize,
scroll, select, submit,
unload

MouseEvents MouseEvent click, mousedown,


mousemove, mouseout,
mouseover, mouseup

Event Propagation
• An event object is create at a node in the document
tree; the node is called the target node.
• Event creation causes a three-phase process:
– Capturing phase – The even starts at the document's root
node and propagates to the target node. Any registered
handlers are checked to determine if they are enabled. Any
enabled handler is executed.
– The registered handler for the event is executed.
– Bubbling phase – as the event bubbles back up the tree, any
registered handlers are executed.
• Any handler can be stopped from further propagation
using the stopPropagation() method.

35
Event Handler Registration
• Event handler registration is handled in DOM
2 model by the AddEventListener method.
• The call:
document.custName.addEventListener("change",
chkName, false);

is of the text element name of the event handler function

is the handler enabled


during the capturing phase?
