Now I know why I cannot understand easily . It is because of the technical concepts used . Because of these concepts I suffer a lot and I get confused and lost . So please tell me Justsomeguy : In programming context and java script , HTML context What is an attribute ? what is an object attribute ? what is the difference between an object attribute and an attribute ? what is the difference between a variable and an attribute ? what is an object? what is an interface ? I need a simple and clear understandable definition for all these terms . I googled them but I got more confused

good explanation . I understood . I have some requests : 1) What is the need to have a program reading and interpreting a log file ? and especially what is the need to interpret or execute a log file ? it means blocking a user IP . If w3schools forum blocks my IP and then I put http://w3schools.invisionzone.com in the browser address bar , then what happens ? I get a blank page or a page in which it is written access denied ? or the connection walks until it time out ? or I get server not found or I can see the w3schools forum home page but I will not be able to login ?

ok Foxy Mod I used : document.getElementById('leftmenuinnerinner') and get : <div id="leftmenuinnerinner" class="w3-light-grey"> as an element then tried to experiment this method : element.attribute = new value So I had leftmenuinnerinner.attributes and got : NamedNodeMap [ id="leftmenuinnerinner", class="w3-light-grey" ] reading about NamedNodeMap here : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NamedNodeMap I think of it as a method or a function that returns the attributes of an element . What makes me think that id="leftmenuinnerinner", class="w3-light-grey" both are attributes or unities composed from variable value pair . Am I right or wrong ? if I am wrong correct me please . SO an attributes can be composed of variables- values pairs ?

I would like to know what does these words mean . A simple and understandable definition : banning script . What does it mean ? log file parsing . What does it mean ? IP address locking out . What does it mean ?

if I have a file named in my windows C drive and want to send it to a web server How to do it using only URL ?? this has no success

could you explain how ? could you explain this too?

very well

Yes but in many cases , I cannot understand what you are writing . By Foxy Mod or Justsomeguy , I understand very well what they mean , my confusion disappeared and I become enlightened but by you not . Whatsoever I did , in many cases , I cannot grasp what you wrote to me . I am only being honest and telling the truth

ok I will use alert

I understand very well . in order for an OS to deal with objects like windows , these objects should be identified . The OS cannot deal with objects if they are not identified to him . A handle is an object identifier or a pointer to that object . In the context of PHP a handle is an object identifier too like files handle , directory handles and so on . If I am wrong correct me why a handle to an open directory should be returned ? True can be returned if the directory is opened or false if it is not opened but why a handle ?

Sorry I did not get a clear answer to my last question :

There is something I could not understand : document.getElementsByTagName('a')[3] gives the third element namely : <a title="HTML Tutorial" class="w3-hide-small" href="/html/default.asp"> but this : var x = document.getElementsByTagName('a')[3]; console.log(x); gives : object {} although all what I did is assigning document.getElementsByTagName('a')[3] to a variable . So I am wondering why ? why the result is different ?

This is enough document.getElementsByTagName('a')[3].innerHTML = "CSS"; and the innerHTML of the third element will be changed to CSS and so on . The changing is apparent and temporary but once the page is refreshed , the default setting turn back .

In this page of I found this little PHP code . I tried to understand it but I could not grasp its meaning to 100% So I will be grateful if you help me understand it : <?php $dir = "/images/"; // Open a directory, and read its contents if (is_dir($dir)){ if ($dh = opendir($dir)){ while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false){ echo "filename:" . $file . "<br>"; } closedir($dh); } } ?> $dir = "/images/"; is the directory that will be opened and read if (is_dir($dir)) the if condition checks if the directory exists . Please if I am wrong correct me . Now comes the confusion and I have some questions if ($dh = opendir($dir)) 1) the opendir opens a directory handle . What is a handle ? why we need it ? and why we need it to open a directory ? why opendir does not just open a directory and that is all ? what is the difference between opening a directory and opening a directory handle ? 2)if the directory exists then open it . So why do not we put it like this : if (is_dir($dir)){ $dh = opendir($dir) {... why we use another if ? like in : if (is_dir($dir)){ if ($dh = opendir($dir)){ ?? while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) The readdir() function returns the name of the next entry in a directory. This is somehow confusing to me . So what does it mean ?? what does it mean while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) ?? why false is used here in this context along with the !== ??

So I would like to change JS HOME to JS HOUSE . I did it like this : a.JS HOME = JS HOUSE but there was an error saying : what was that error and how to change the inner HTML from JS HOME to JS HOUSE ??

You know bro that I am in the beginning of the path . I am struggling to understand especially that no one learned me programming and I am doing it all myself . I am new .

You are affirming what I wrote namely that : document.getElementById(id) returns an element object meanwhile (single) document.getElementsByTagName(name) returns an array of elements or a collection of elements ( plural)

That is very complicated and not 100% true and exact document.getElementById(id) gives an element by id and not as you wrote to me meanwhile this : document.getElementsByTagName(name) gives an array of elements by Tag name . To prove what I write here is what document.getElementById('nav_tutorials') gives : a single element <div class="w3-dropnav w3-light-grey w3-card-2 w3-center" id="nav_tutorials" style="display: none;"> and here what document.getElementsByTagName('a') gives : an array containing more than 241 elements HTMLCollection [ <a.w3schools-logo>, <a.topnav-localicons.w3-hide-large.w3-left>, <a.topnav-icons.fa.fa-home.w3-left>, <a.w3-hide-small>, <a.w3-hide-small>, <a.active>, <a.w3-hide-small>, <a.w3-hide-small>, <a.w3-hide-small>, <a.w3-hide-small>, 241 more… ] it is single against plural .

Exactly this document.getElementsByTagName(name) gives an array of elements , specified by the tag name between the opening and closing parentheses , as its values . It does not give a raw element like document.getElementById(id) does

I decided to post a new thread concerning this link case I do not understand something I write it here as I think it will be too long . Continuation of this already opened thread : http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=55183&hl= Foxy Mod the second method is document.getElementsByTagName(name) This is a sample of a w3schools source code : <a target="_top" href="default.asp">JS HOME</a> <a target="_top" href="js_intro.asp">JS Introduction</a> <a target="_top" href="js_whereto.asp">JS Where To</a> <a target="_top" href="js_output.asp">JS Output</a> <a target="_top" href="js_syntax.asp">JS Syntax</a> When I put document.getElementsByTagName('a') I got this : HTMLCollection [ <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value>, <a.attribute-value> I wonder why I did not get the element as it as namely like this <a target="_top" href="default.asp">JS HOME</a> <a target="_top" href="js_intro.asp">JS Introduction</a> <a target="_top" href="js_whereto.asp">JS Where To</a> <a target="_top" href="js_output.asp">JS Output</a> <a target="_top" href="js_syntax.asp">JS Syntax</a> <a target="_top" href="js_whereto.asp">JS Where To</a> <a target="_top" href="js_output.asp">JS Output</a> <a target="_top" href="js_syntax.asp">JS Syntax</a> <a target="_top" href="js_statements.asp">JS Statements</a> <a target="_top" href="js_comments.asp">JS Comments</a> <a target="_top" href="js_variables.asp">JS Variables</a> <a target="_top" href="js_operators.asp">JS Operators</a> <a target="_top" href="js_arithmetic.asp">JS Arithmetic</a> <a target="_top" href="js_assignment.asp">JS Assignment</a> <a target="_top" href="js_datatypes.asp">JS Data Types</a> ..... ???

get an element by its id . If I do not know the id I cannot get its element . Totally logical and true Foxy Mod . Then how to get the id ? or what is the method used to get an id ? For example how to get the id in this page ?

I will reformulate my question : now I am in this page http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=55183&hl= and I want to find , in this page , an element by its id using document.getElementById(id) method . So how to do it ?

This is a context : http://www.parityportal.com/2013/06/18/red-hat-says-nothing-decided-about-ditching-mysql-move-to-mariadb/ in this context what does it mean ?

So for example how can I use document.getElementById() to access the 'all-css-0' element without seeing the source code ???

So , if I understand what is mentioned in the dictionary very well , they're ditching MySQL in favor of PostgreSQL means that they replaced MySQL database with PostgreSQL? right ?
