Outputs in JavaScript

There are several ways to produce outputs in JavaScript:

Changing the contents of an HTML element

• JavaScript can be used to modify the content of HTML elements by accessing them through the Document Object Model (DOM). E.g.:

chosenElement = document.getElementById(“example”);

chosenElement.innerHTML = “Hello World”;

• The first line of code uses the document.getElementById() method to retrieve the HTML element with the ID “example” from the document’s DOM (Document Object Model)

• The returned element is assigned to the variable chosenElement, which allows further manipulation of that element

• The second line of code modifies the content within the chosenElement HTML element

• The innerHTML property allows direct access to the HTML content within an element

• In this case, the content of chosenElement is changed to “Hello World”, effectively replacing any existing content with this new text

Writing directly to the document

• JavaScript can write directly to the document using the document.write() method. E.g.

document.write(“Hello World”);

• This code writes the text “Hello World” directly to the webpage

Using an alert box

• JavaScript provides the alert() function to display a pop-up alert box with a message. E.g.

alert(“Hello World”);

• This code triggers an alert box with the message “Hello World”

Alert Box with the words ‘Hello World’
