13,965 PointsConverting Object In To HTML?
Hey guys,
I've learn the JS basics.
I've just started making object constructors and had a few questions.
1.How do you convert them in to HTML?
My idea was to use the information and display each person's properties as text next to a photo.
I know you can do it separately by doing something like:
document.write(dave.age);
but how do you do it for all their properties?
2.When you display an object in the browser it only shows that object on a blank page without the rest of the HTML. Why is that?
3.Are objects meant to be displayed to the browser? If they aren't why is this? And how would you use them effectively?
Thanks Joe

for (var d in dave) {
if (dave.hasOwnProperty(d)) {
document.write(d + " : " + dave[d]);
}
}
