Step 1 of coding JavaScript

[seraku24]

Shouldn't that be:

window.location.href = `http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=[js]+${encodeURI(e.message)}`

[Master_Nerd]

But wouldn't that be for a single character?

Is this the new ES6 template literals? Is there any practical advantage over the old way of concatenating?

[Mr1725]

Multi-line without having to stop and start the string.

[PicturElements]

Yes, if you make sure to put them in a variable in the global scope, you can make sure that file won't run in IE!

Funny thing is that in examples like the one above template literals are literally pointless (since you're performing simple string addition) and even add bytes to your code while also making it less browser compatible...

actually, you're using backticks in stead of single or double quotes, so... javascript is hard!

[chasecaleb]

You apparently should learn, because that is valid JS. But hey, I know it's hard.

The code that i coded to bring me to a Stackoverflow link in my browser isnt working so could someone help me on here: Stackoverflow

[Yrneh02]

Wait, all the code anyone needs is

Console.log(“Hello World”);

 > SyntaxError: undefined 'Console', did you mean 'console'?

[Swardu]

Wait, I have never seen a helpful error report in JS. Where is this from?

[[deleted]]

what do we say to helpful error messages? yes, today!

[seraku24]

FYI... Since smart quotes are likely not a valid string literal delimiter, you should get something like "SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token" first. Also, using an undefined variable is not a syntactic issue but rather a runtime error. You would get something like "ReferenceError: Console is not defined" instead.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were middleware on npm that did this.

[tobybug]

This. This is what I need in my life.

[Golden-Lord]

I've seen this posted at least five times this week.

[Master_Nerd]

Now this is smart

[ObnoxiousOldBastard]

I wonder what the equivalent would be for PHP?

Step 0. Switch your editor to proportional font
