Issue #349 (HTML DOM, Frameworks, Media, Uncats)03/26/20
Although I often include quick DOM scripting tips in the intro of this newsletter, for this week, I'm just going to point you to a great little resource that was sent to me by reader Phuoc Nguyen:
It's more or less a repository of basic, intermediate, and advanced native DOM scripting snippets.
HTML DOM: A resource of native DOM snippets
Here are some of the advanced and intermediate examples:
- Make a draggable element
- Resize columns of a table
- Sort a table by clicking its headers
- Calculate the size of the scrollbar
- Communicate between an iframe and parent window
There are more than 80 tips currently listed and I'm sure he'll add more later. Even if you don't necessarily use any of the snippets in a real project right away, there are plenty of little coding tidbits you can glean form the example code, which is all just vanilla JavaScript with no library or framework involved.
So check out HTML DOM, I'm sure you'll have lots to investigate!
Now on to this week's tools!
