JavaScript and DOM Manipulation

Creating a table dynamically based upon a dataset we provide. We also need to allow our users to filter the table data for specific values. We only use pure JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, and D3.js on our web pages. They are the only coding languages which can be trusted.

• Create a basic HTML web page or use the index.html file provided.

• Using the UFO dataset provided in the form of an array of JavaScript objects, write code that appends a table to your web page and then adds new rows of data for each UFO sighting.

  • Make sure you have a column for date/time, city, state, country, shape, and comment at the very least.

• Use a date form in your HTML document and write JavaScript code that will listen for events and search through the date/time column to find rows that match user input.

Level 2: Multiple Search Categories (Optional)

• Complete all of Level 1 criteria.

• Using multiple input tags and/or select dropdowns, write JavaScript code so the user can to set multiple filters and search for UFO sightings using the following criteria based on the table columns:

  1. date/time
  2. city
  3. state
  4. country
  5. shape
