Next TheMadComputer Project

I'm planning on making my next TheMadComputer project kind of like a pro-version of TheMadScript, but maybe with a different name.

We'll see what I come up with. I'm already thinking of starting right now.

Ideas!

Hi guys! Things are going well right now and I'm thinking up cool ideas for my website and anything that has to do with my website. I'm trying to give my website a new look and a purpose and my website right now is sort of "closed."

But that should change soon. I am going to give my site some usefulness, not just have it up for entertainment. And I'm thinking of even updating TheMadScript, because it could use some new methods to make it more useful.

You will be able to post some content to my site through my recent email program, TheMadMail. Stuff like your own how-to with JavaScript, and if I can get more visitors to my website, developer contests. And maybe even more.

I'll be back soon!

Tip of the Week

In TheMadScript, use the "screen" object to get the width, height, and color depth of the screen in your text.

Tip of the Day

You can easily get the width, height, and color depth of the screen with TheMadScript. (Remember: You need to use the JS file with your page if you want to use TheMadScript.)

A tip. Hopefully useful.

Tip of the Day

The box_confirm() method can be used for a confirm box, and to control the results right in the function's parentheses. Study it at TheMadScript Blog.

A useful tip. Hope it saves your life. :D

TheMadScript example page released

Click on the link above to test out some TheMadScript examples. More are coming soon, so keep an eye out.

I'm recommending something...

If I must say so myself, TheMadScript is really useful. It is much simpler than regular JavaScript, and can be combined with JavaScript (so it will reduce your JavaScript coding). I just finished the tutorial and reference for version 2.0.0 at the TheMadScript blog, so you can study it there. Gee, you may like it. Or love it. Or not. :)

Please tell me what you think of it once you try it out! I have a surprise coming up for TheMadScript. I have worn myself out by just updating the reference and tutorial. Seriously, it was overkill. So I'd like your opinion.

Save the Cave again

No, I haven't finished Save the Cave yet. But I have made the decision to use some TheMadScript coding in it, because of reducing some coding needs and proving the simplicity of it.

Well, I'm pretty excited to be simple! LOL

TheMadScript 2.0.0 in the works

Save the Cave is going to go further soon, and so is TheMadScript! I am adding new stuff. Please be patient while I update it.

The new version will feature:

• More convenient way of getting results from confirm or prompt boxes.
• More methods
• Better ways of retrieving values (like the href of a page or the full date)
• And more!

Please stay tuned for this exciting release. Be prepared for some changes, and get ready to avoid the "result" parameter!

Notice that some methods will be obsolete after this release. Further releases in which a method or object is deprecated, that deprecated method/object should remain available for a little while. But be prepared to take action.

Tip of the Day

Have you studied my new TheMadScript yet? Do you know all the methods and what they do? If so, here's something you'll want to know. The "result" parameter controls the result type (whether to display an alert or text), but if you put in "text", the result replaces the entire page!

So I think that "alert" would be better. Unless you want to replace all of the content on your page. :)

A useful tip.

NOTICE: This tip is outdated.

TheMadScript has been released

Sorry for posting this late, but I've already released TheMadScript 1.0.5! The official TheMadScript page is at www.themadcomputer.com/themadscript. There is a link to the blog that you'll find on that page. The blog has the reference of all of the functions, including obsolete ones, so you know the old and perhaps funny ones. :)

TheMadScript: Coming Soon

Okay, I just literally sat down and created a small scripting language. It isn't supported in any browser, but it's like JQuery: it's a JavaScript file containing all of the methods. As you may know, I don't know any JQuery, except for the fact that it's a library. Okay, here's the explanation.

I was thinking earlier today that it would be nice to try to "create a scripting language". I knew that I had to do it all JavaScript, which was okay. When I tried it, I was amazed.

TheMadScript reduces some coding needs and is really simple. TheMadScript is mostly a simpler way of writing a few JavaScript functions. In version 1.0.0, there are 16 functions, all which can create popup boxes and control the result, do a few math functions, and do a few other cool things.

Pretty soon, I will put up a tutorial on TheMadScript at my website, teaching you all about TheMadScript. There also will be no need to download

You just wait and see. You'll be thankful that TheMadScript was released. I'm kind of thankful too, as it'll reduce a few coding needs for me.
