The calling
Instructions
Congrats! You created the very first base for your being and you witnessed its appearance on the digital world - your browser. But so far, it's a tiny seed of the marvelous thing it could become ; be patient, there still is a bit of work.
First of all, instead of writing down what things are (you're not writing down
on your hand the word 'hand', are you?) we're going to identify them
semantically with the very practical
id
attribute.
This id has to be a unique identifier in your webpage, which will allow you
to target your element if needed. Your can compare it to your name & surname ; this
is what is identifying you to other people, and if someone's calling you by your
name, you answer.
So let's identify the 3 elements we have so far: in each section, remove the
text content from inside the tag and set it as the value of the id attribute
of the corresponding section text.
Open the page in the browser:
you don't see anything? Don't freak out!
Inspect the HTML that have been created with your
browser inspector tool,
& if you done it correctly, you should see inside the body the 3 sections with
the id attribute set in your HTML structure.
Code examples
Set the id of a div tag to "my-lil-div":
<div id="my-lil-div"></div>
