Animation• Animation is the display of a
sequence of static images at a fast enough speed to create the illusion of movement.
• Regarding the user interface, animation has to do with changing a display to make it dynamic—not just a one-time change but a seamless one.
• JavaScript can produce spectacular animation effects.
3
Recursion• Recursion is a programming
technique in which a function calls itself.
• Recursion is a key part of animation. • The most effective way to introduce
a “timing element” into JavaScript is to use setTimeout recursively.– Have it invoke another execution of
the same function from which the setTimeout() was called. 4

createElement Method• You can use the JavaScript createElement method to display an image when a button is clicked or some other event occurs.
8
Canvas Element• To draw a canvas object, use:
– getElementById() function to find the canvas element
– canvas.getContext to create the canvas object
• Then use a variety of methods to draw shapes, include images, and so on.

Canvas Example: Analog Clock

11
Sending and Receiving Data• One of the most essential techniques
for data transfer involves the XMLHttpRequest API.– Sometimes abbreviated as XHR
• XMLHttpRequest enables you to use JavaScript to pass data in the form of text strings between a client and a server.
12
XMLHttpRequest
• General syntax:
13
XMLHttpRequest
• The XMLHttpRequest object creates a call to the server.
• The open method specifies the HTTP method for contacting the server and provides the server’s Web address.
• The callback function gets a response from the server.
• xhr.send(data) sends the data.

Accessing Data Example

16
Parsing• Parsing is a term used to describe
analysis of complex information into constituent parts.
• Use parsing for extracting information from a data stream of stock quotes and similar tasks.

19
JSON• You can also use JSON.parse and JSON.stringify APIs to exchange JavaScript objects with a server.
20
Loading and Saving Files• JavaScript can access files on a local
computer and, using HTML5, validate the file type before loading, which greatly reduces errors.
21
Access a Local File Example

25
AppCache• AppCache saves a copy of Web site
files locally, in a structured form.• AppCache is not the same as a
browser’s cache. Whereas a browser’s cache saves all Web pages visited, AppCache saves only the files listed in the cache manifest.
26
AppCache Example
27
Data Types• A data type is JavaScript’s interpretation
of the kind of data a program can work with.
• Data types include:– string– Number– Array– Boolean– Null– Object– undefined
28
User Input Form Validation• As end users enter data in a form,
JavaScript can instantly validate entries and suggest alternatives.
29
Client-side Validation Example

Cookies• Cookies are small text files that Web
sites save to a computer’s hard disk that contain information about the user and his or her browsing preferences.
• The content of cookies change as a user revisits a site and selects different items or changes preferences.
• In JavaScript, a cookie is a variable.• JavaScript can create and retrieve
cookies.
32
Use Cookies Example
33
Local Storage• HTML5’s Local Storage feature has
better security and makes programming easier than with cookies.
