JAVA Script - Help!!! by Deesquare01(m): 3:52pm On Mar 22, 2018
Good day Developers.

Please how do I output Javascript in a text editor, saving the text with .js extension.

Can I use console.log() in a text editor provided I saved the file with .js extension and not .html.

Thanks

JavaScript runs in the browser and not text editor.

open your browser, right- click and select "inspect element"

click on the "console" tab and type your JavaScript codes there.

shift+enter to move to a new line without executing

or install node js

Yes... But I'm not writing the js inside <script></script> tag... I am running it inside a .js file.

link it with your HTML , then open it on your browser , make sure the js file and HTML are in the same folder
then put this before your body tag, <script src ="name of file.js"></script>

create a .html file
create your .js file

link your js file to the html using the
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

<script src="path/to/js-file"></script>

</body>

</html>

you should console.log(result);
your js code.

load your .html in favourite browser and "inspect element" . view result in your console tab.
