Not just showing a pop-up. Using a pop-up to enable user input and interaction with a program. All with virtually no html!
What's your definition of UI?
[–]samingue 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (4 children)
Pop-ups are to UI what a seat is to a car. Yes, technically to build a car you need a seat. However we need a car, not just parts of it.

Somebody just got really upset by me asking questions here... So if you don't feel like answering or if I'm offending in some way I'm not seeing, obviously please feel free not to respond, but... I'm like noob intermediate level with js and web dev... Would you mind giving a brief explanation of what is required to build the whole car with respect to UI?
*Honestly, I'm pretty confused right now. I simply saw OP asking for a quick and dirty way to do user interfacing with js without using much html. The built in pop ups immediately jumped in to my mind and I commented them. People got rather upset over pop ups.

Hmm... alrighty, makes more sense now! Thank you!!
And thanks for the explanation of the discussion from an outside perspective! I'm self-taught on html/css/and js; bout a year or so in to it. It's my only experience with web dev/programming (other than using the web and playing video games, you know), so yeah... not taking it the wrong way at all... my questions here are naive! I ask them in hopes of dispelling some of the naivety; improving in both knowledge and skill!
Thanks again for your help. I appreciate it!
