The code supposed to be use javascript between the <script>
tags that
consists of a mouseover event, and the list items in the HTML page must
be styled as follows: normal - black, 12, bold and over yellow, 15, bold, italic.
<html>
<head>
<title> Using mouseover eve </title>
<script language = "javascript">
<!--
function changeStyle() {
var item = document.getElementByTagName("li");
item.style.color = "yellow";
item.style.fontSize = "15pt";
item.style.fontWeight = "bold";
item.style.fontStyle = "italic";
}
-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<ul style = "color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold" >
<li onMouseOver = "changeStyle()"> item 1 </li>
<li onMouseOver = "changeStyle()"> item 2 </li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
Syntax: var elements = document. getElementsByTagName(name);
The Element. getElementsByTagName() method returns a live HTMLCollection of elements with the given tag name. All descendants of the specified element are searched, but not the element itself. The returned list is live, which means it updates itself with the DOM tree automatically.
getElementsByTagName() The getElementsByTagName method of Document interface returns an HTMLCollection of elements with the given tag name. The complete document is searched, including the root node.
The difference is that GetElementByID() will retrieve a single element object based on the unique id specified, whereas GetElementsByTagName() will retrieve an array of all element objects with the specified tag name. Then you can obtain the value using GetElementById from your C++ code.
That's because the correct function name is getElementsByTagName
and not getElementByTagName
.
var items = document.getElementsByTagName("li");
This will return a Nodelist of elements with that particular tag name (in this case, all list items in the document).
Then, you could target your li's specifically as you wish, for example:
items[0].style.color = "yellow"; // first li is yellow when mouseover
items[1].style.color = "red"; // second li is red when mouseover
etc.
it should be document.getElementsByTagName
