    Study Notes

    Event Handling and DOM Manipulation

    • The preventDefault() method can be used to stop the default behavior of an event.

    • There are three common keyboard events: keydown, keypress, and keyup.

      • keydown is triggered when a key is pressed down.

      • keyup is triggered when a key is released.

      • keypress is triggered during the key press, often between keydown and keyup.

    • keyup is typically the most useful of the three keyboard events.

    JavaScript Basics

    • JavaScript functions can be created using a function expression or a class.

    • JavaScript supports various data types including:

      • Primitive Types:

        • number: Represents numbers, including decimals.
        • boolean: Represents true or false.
        • string: Represents text enclosed in single or double quotes.

      • Complex Types:

        • function: Represents code blocks that can be reused and executed.
        • array: Represents ordered lists of values.
        • object: Represents unordered collections of key-value pairs.

    Essential JavaScript Constructs

    • Loops:

      • Allow you to repeat a block of code multiple times, such as for iterating over arrays or objects.

    • Conditions (if/else statements):

      • Determine which code block to execute based on a condition.

    • Variables:

      • Store data in your programs.

    • Functions:

      • Code blocks that can be defined and reused, often to perform specific tasks.

    • Arrays:

      • Collections of items (can be of different data types).

    • Objects:

      • Collections of key-value pairs.

    • Classes:

      • Templates for creating objects that share the same properties and methods.

    Working with the DOM

    • Document Object Model (DOM):

      • A tree-like representation of the structure of an HTML document.
      • Provides access to the document's elements and content.

    • DOM Manipulation:

      • Modifying elements, changing their attributes (e.g., style, class), and updating their content.

    • Event Listeners:

      • Used to respond to user interactions and other events (e.g., clicking a button, loading a page).

    • jQuery:

      • A widely used JavaScript library that simplifies DOM manipulation, event handling, and animation.

    Other Important Concepts

    • Cross-Browser Compatibility:

      • Ensuring your code works across different web browsers.

    • Performance Optimization:

      • Techniques for writing efficient JavaScript code that performs well, especially during DOM manipulation.

    Security Considerations

    • Cross-Site Scripting (XSS):

      • A type of vulnerability that allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into a website.
      • Tagged templates can help sanitize user input to prevent XSS attacks.

    • SQL Injection:

      • A type of vulnerability that allows attackers to manipulate SQL queries to gain unauthorized access to data.
      • Proper input validation and parameterized queries can help prevent SQL injection attacks.
