the Dom

I'm trying to learn more about the front end to be able to web scrape better. I've been through the HTML deep dive course and the CSS basics course both of which were good., but I've still not heard any mention of the DOM and what this is. What course(s) would be best to take next to understand more about that and how JavaScript can be used to inject pages with data?

Thanks

Hi YB

I don't know if I'm the best person to answer this, but check out "Interactive Web Pages with JavaScript" taught by Andrew Chalkley. I'm taking it now and it covers a lot of great information about the DOM.

Hi Y B,

I have found the course by @chalkers useful

It covers what you ask for

-DOM (Document Object Model)

-Manipulating the DOM with JavaScript

Thanks for the answers that's a great help. I've just done the 2 basic javascript courses as a warm up to your jQuery and interactive web pages suggestions. So I'll tackle those next and hopefully it will soon be clear.

Thanks.
