These were the exercises:

Exc 1: Everybody should design a simple page HTML by hand! It doesn't need to look fancy, it's much more important that you learn how to build a page from scratch and add link to your stylesheet and your javascript code. There should be no styling information in the HTML only in the CSS. Set up a onload function that calls a javascript function that does something interesting. It change at least one thing on the page by using document.getElementById along with changing the returned node's style property.

Exc 2: Purely in javascript design a class and subclass to demonstrate that you understand the concept. The subclass should utilize the inheritance code that I showed in class. This should just be a javascript file which I can copy and paste into Firebug and run.

Exc 3: Write a short script that modifies a popular site in an interest way. This should be a javascript file that I can run on a URL that you specify.

For exercise number one check out this mock-up of the freeformed settings page. And here is the javascript. Also, you can find the css here.

For exercise two, here is the javascript file. Copy and paste it into firebug and check it out. Very simple, but I understand it (which is important).

For exercise three, what I really wanted to do was delete myspace by turning it all white. But after many hours of trying to figure it out I decided to settle on giving facebook a modernist face lift (works best if you school over the jumbled letters). Here is the javascript to put into firebug.
