JavaScript 101: Week Four - DOM DOM DOM!
“What happened to Week 3” you ask. “Hey - aren’t we on Week 5 already?”
Kindly STFU, Dear Reader.
I have allowed myself to fall a little behind with the course ( <—- see how good I am at understatement?) y’see, and I’m going to catch myself up in descending order of difficulty. Week 3 was a pain, Week 4 a relative cinch. To the blogmobile!
