PBS 26 – HTML Data Attributes with jQuery

Bart Busschots is back with another installment of Programming By Stealth. In this week’s episode we wake Allison up from her long winter nap away from programming and continue our work on our JavaScript clock. The goal is to create a better API for our clock so that we can publish it and have it be used by others. My personal goal is to have a secure clock I can display on https://podfeet.com/live so that you know when it’s coming up on 5pm at my house and hence time for the NosillaCast Live. In order to achieve this goal, we need to learn how to add data attributes within html, and then change those attributes using jQuery. Dust off your memories of prototypes and screw your propeller beanie on tight for this one! Link to the full tutorial is available at bartbusschots.ie/…
