Lecture

Audio from the lecture given on February 7, 2013 is here.

Also, here is jquery-ui-express, the example discussed in class. To run this code you will need to:

  • Install node and npm. Note this example was developed with version 0.8.19.
  • Install express, generally by running npm install express -g.
  • unzip jquery-ui-express.zip
  • cd jquery-ui-express; npm install (to get the correct node_modules directory set up)
  • node app.js

This example is a node port of the standalone html demo demo-jquery-ui covered in last week's tutorial.

  2. In express, URLs are all automatically resolved by looking for the appropriately named file. (true/false)
  3. In node, modules declare public functions by assigning them to which object?
  4. Jade templates only allow you to access a restricted subset of HTML. (true/false)
  5. In an HTML form, if I want to return a value called "country", which parameter do I set to "country": id, name, class, for, or type?
