HTML is easy to setup start a tag with and end with (x is the tag, like body or head) So you always start with: after html tag you use head in the head you setup things like page title (this is the title Also the metatags are in the head (search engines use meta tags) You also initiate scripts like javascript in the head. Next is the body The body is the visible part in browsers Here you can use things like headings

Big text

(number 1 to 6) So your page is: page title (page)

And a randomword function:

function createRandomWord(length) {
    var consonants = 'bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz',
        vowels = 'aeiou',
        rand = function(limit) {
            return Math.floor(Math.random()*limit);
        },
        i, word='', length = parseInt(length,10),
        consonants = consonants.split(''),
        vowels = vowels.split('');
    for (i=0;i<length/2;i++) {
        var randConsonant = consonants[rand(consonants.length)],
            randVowel = vowels[rand(vowels.length)];
        word += (i===0) ? randConsonant.toUpperCase() : randConsonant;
        word += i*2<length-1 ? randVowel : '';
    }
    return word;
}
 
alert( createRandomWord(10) );

so how would i compile it into a single HTML page?

thomaster · Answer

page title This function will make a popup with a random word

thomaster · Answer

If you change the 10 into 15 or something th word will contain 15 letters instead of 10 :)

thomaster · Answer

You can also make a nice button :)) if you click it the random word will appear, which is way more fun. Include this in the body:

random word generator

And remove this from the script: alert( createRandomWord(10) );

thomaster · Answer

The popup is caused by the alert. To make text of it replace alert by document.write
So: document.write( createRandomWord(10) )

anonymous · Answer

hmm well okaii, i seem to understand it better :)
But how about if I was trying to use javascript to loop something?

thomaster · Answer

What would you like to loop? random words? :P Loops are made with for. like: for (var i=0; i<5; i++) { x=x + "The number is " + i + "
"; } This function does the following: -variable i is set to zero. -IF i is lower than 5, add 1 to i (i++) -next it writes on the page the current value of i followed by a br tag (enter) It will repeat as long as i is less then 5
