Assignment title: Information
Tutorial 9:
Using an instance of the XMLHttpRequest object, you should query the
server tmaserv.scem.uws.edu.au to retrieve and insert the supplied information
into the DOM inside the section tag of start.html. You should retrieve two items of
information, from the following links:
the contents of http://tmaserv.scem.uws.edu.au/htmlfrag.html as a simple HTML
fragment.
Each of the fruit names and descriptions, with the name being a heading and the
description a paragraph from http://tmaserv.scem.uws.edu.au/fruit.json. This
should be parsed, processed and output through the use of javascript rather than
simply pasting the text into the DOM.
For each of the questions above you should start with a fresh version of start.html.
You may add any attributes you wish to the HTML, however your code must respect
the rules for attributes.
These tasks will be used in Tutorial Set D as Questions 1 and 2.
Tutorial 10:
Using an instance of the XMLHttpRequest object, you should query the
server tmaserv.scem.uws.edu.au with the ultimate aim of inserting data into
the section tag of start.html. You should:
1. Use the Do Exercise button to retrieve and store the JSON data
from http://tmaserv.scem.uws.edu.au/fruit.json into local
storage WITHOUT displaying to the screen. This data contains the fruit names and
descriptions.
2. Continue the page used in the above question (Question 1) and create a second
button. This button will run a second function (created by you) to read the information
stored in the local storage. The information should then be displayed to the screen
by inserting it into the section tag. The information should be displayed with the
name being a heading and the description a paragraph.
You may add any attributes you wish to the HTML, however your code must respect
the rules for attributes.
These tasks will be used in Tutorial Set D as Question 3.
Final Result Files:
You should submit the results of the Weeks 9 and 10 exercises as Tutorial Set D.
You must submit 3 files as a ZIP archive, any other archive format (for example
RAR, TAR, TAR.GZ, 7Z etc) will not be accepted and a mark of zero (0) will
automatically awarded.
Each of the three files must be named <SID>-set- d-question-
<X>.html where <SID> is your student ID, and <X> is the question number. Week 9's
work is questions 1 & 2, Week 11's work is question 3. Failure to follow this naming
scheme will also result in a mark of 0.
If you use an external framework like jQuery for any of the exercises you will receive
a mark of 0, for that question.
The name of the ZIP file does not matter, and you MUST NOT submit a coversheet.
Submit your file via the submission link below, it will be marked according to the
attached rubric.
