JavaScript for Beginners

There are three main ways to add JavaScript to HTML:

 

1. Inline JavaScript

You can write JavaScript directly inside an HTML tag using the onclickonload, or other event attributes:

<button onclick="alert('Hello!')">Click Me</button>

2. Internal JavaScript

You can place JavaScript inside a <script> tag in your HTML file, usually in the <head> or at the end of the <body>:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Internal JS</title>
  <script>
    function sayHello() {
      alert('Hello from internal JS!');
    }
  </script>
</head>
<body>
  <button onclick="sayHello()">Click</button>
</body>
</html>

3. External JavaScript

You can link to a separate JavaScript file using the src attribute of the <script> tag. This keeps your code cleaner.

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>External JS</title>
<script src=”script.js”></script>
</head>
<body>
<button onclick=”sayHello()”>Click</button>
</body>
</html>
