Study Notes: Designing a Responsive Landing Page
💡 Easy English Concept Guide
The DOM (Document Object Model) is a tree structure of your HTML page. JavaScript can search the DOM, change text, change styles, or add new elements.
1. DOM Concept
The DOM (Document Object Model) represents your web page structure as a node tree. JavaScript can access and manipulate these node trees dynamically.
2. Selection & Mutation APIs Reference
document.getElementById('id'): Selects a single element by its ID name.element.textContent = 'text': Updates an element's text content.element.classList.toggle('class'): Toggles a styling class on/off.document.createElement('tag'): Creates a new element dynamically.
3. Dynamic Elements Manipulation Demo
// Selecting button element
const btn = document.getElementById('btn-action');
// Click listener modifies class names and text nodes
btn.onclick = function() {
const header = document.getElementById('main-header');
header.textContent = "DOM Text Updated!";
header.style.color = "#4f46e5"; // set inline styles
// Append a list item node
const list = document.getElementById('list-container');
const newItem = document.createElement('li');
newItem.textContent = "New item added via JS";
newItem.className = "text-xs text-indigo-500 font-semibold";
list.appendChild(newItem);
};💡 Quick Revision Guide
Ensure your layouts adapt cleanly across responsive viewport widths. Double-check script sequences to verify that DOM selections happen after nodes are parsed by the browser.
