JavaScript Projects

Yeah, I got that part... I just have to find out how to dynamically retrieve the positions whenever the user moves the DIV...

Hello, sorry for the necropost, but I just wanted to thank you for posting such an interesting javascript project. This was my first time using javascript and I think it turned out quite nicely.

I uploaded the result to my site if anyone wants to see:

There are win / lose conditions now too. The default target value is $90k, so you need to make an average of $1000 a day to win.

I tried it out, seems to work great! I lost though, only made about $200 a day. Did you learn much during the process of re-creating the game?

Thanks for trying it out! I did indeed learn quite a bit. Towards the beginning I was dynamically generating all of the javascript code using document.createElement(), but eventually realized that most of the html code can be generated beforehand and simply hidden until needed.

The one thing I'm still not sure about is how to best access the html elements. Throughout the code I've used document.getElementById(), document.getElementByTagName(), and element.childNodes[0].

Also, I accessed a couple of elements through their .className property, so I'm not sure if that's a good practice, since the .class essentially represents the visual display rather than the inner structure.
