| bad87fee1348bd9aede08817 | Nest an Anchor Element within a Paragraph | 0 | https://scrimba.com/p/pVMPUv/cb6k8Cb | 18244 |
Description
You can nest links within other text elements.
<p>
Here's a <a target="_blank" href="http://freecodecamp.org"> link to freecodecamp.org</a> for you to follow.
</p>
Let's break down the example:
Normal text is wrapped in the p element:
<p> Here's a ... for you to follow. </p>
Next is the anchor element <a> (which requires a closing tag </a>):
<a> ... </a>
target is an anchor tag attribute that specifies where to open the link and the value "_blank" specifies to open the link in a new tab
href is an anchor tag attribute that contains the URL address of the link:
<a href="http://freecodecamp.org"> ... </a>
The text, "link to freecodecamp.org", within the a element called anchor text, will display a link to click:
<a href=" ... ">link to freecodecamp.org</a>
The final output of the example will look like this:
Here's a link to freecodecamp.org for you to follow.
Instructions
Now nest the existing a element within a new p element (just after the existing main element). The new paragraph should have text that says "View more cat photos", where "cat photos" is a link, and the rest of the text is plain text.
Tests
tests:
- text: You need an <code>a</code> element that links to "http://freecatphotoapp.com".
testString: assert(($("a[href=\"http://freecatphotoapp.com\"]").length > 0 || $("a[href=\"http://www.freecatphotoapp.com\"]").length > 0));
- text: Your <code>a</code> element should have the anchor text of "cat photos"
testString: assert($("a").text().match(/cat\sphotos/gi));
- text: Create a new <code>p</code> element around your <code>a</code> element. There should be at least 3 total <code>p</code> tags in your HTML code.
testString: assert($("p") && $("p").length > 2);
- text: Your <code>a</code> element should be nested within your new <code>p</code> element.
testString: assert(($("a[href=\"http://freecatphotoapp.com\"]").parent().is("p") || $("a[href=\"http://www.freecatphotoapp.com\"]").parent().is("p")));
- text: Your <code>p</code> element should have the text "View more " (with a space after it).
testString: assert(($("a[href=\"http://freecatphotoapp.com\"]").parent().text().match(/View\smore\s/gi) || $("a[href=\"http://www.freecatphotoapp.com\"]").parent().text().match(/View\smore\s/gi)));
- text: Your <code>a</code> element should <em>not</em> have the text "View more".
testString: assert(!$("a").text().match(/View\smore/gi));
- text: Make sure each of your <code>p</code> elements has a closing tag.
testString: assert(code.match(/<\/p>/g) && code.match(/<p/g) && code.match(/<\/p>/g).length === code.match(/<p/g).length);
- text: Make sure each of your <code>a</code> elements has a closing tag.
testString: assert(code.match(/<\/a>/g) && code.match(/<a/g) && code.match(/<\/a>/g).length === code.match(/<a/g).length);
