Exercise2
We're going to expand on the first exercise and use variables. Pay close attention on how the + is used to concatenate(join together) text with variables.
e.g. document.write("<p> Your name:" + name + "</p>" );
Create a new file called ex2.html and type in the below code:
<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScript Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
//set up our variables
var name;
var age;
var yourLocation;
//assign values
name = "Joe";
//age is an integer so we don't use ""
age = 33
yourLocation = "Brighton"
//simple code to demonstrate output
document.write("<p> Your name:" + name + "</p>" );
document.write("<p> Your age:" + age + "</p>" );
document.write("<p> Your location:" + yourLocation + "</p>" );
</script>
</body>
</html>
Save your file and open up the page in your browser and see what happens.
