I hate JavaScript

I’m putting together some new pages for my ReviseICT.co.uk website

Book of Blood psp

. These are pages that will help keep the content organised into topic areas now more and more games and activities are appearing.

However, I wanted to add a small function to make a random computer related animation appear on at the bottom of each topic screen (just like the one above). I’ve done this in the paste such as on the Neale-Wade website and it was just a simple little piece of JavaScript. Easily done.

Rupan sansei: Kariosutoro no shiro psp The Fog full movie Or so I thought. What I’ve found is that as I’ve become so focused on using Flash, I kept making mistakes in the JavaScript. Nothing major, but missing out an apostrophe here or a speech mark there makes all the difference. Just as Actionscript has its foibles and characteristics, so does JavaScript. Once I got the random image JavaScript working on Firefox I then tried it on Internet Explorer to find it failed. More trouble!

I don’t really Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat rip hate JavaScript. It is an incredibly useful scripting language that I use on nearly every webpage I create. I guess I just got a little hacked off as I’ve become so used to Flash and so used to the little tricks to get things to work. I suppose the lesson to learn is that once you become to focused on the use of one program, you then lose skills with other programs or scripts.

Having said this, I could just have used Flash for the random image feature – but I wanted to use JavaScript to keep the page as ‘light’ as possible without additional downloads. I just wish that JavaScript had been more friendly today – I’ve ended up taking an hour or more to create something I thought would take 5 minutes.

I suppose it could also be down to the fact that I’ve got a dreadful cold and have lost my voice! :roll:
