They have something called the console, similar to a toplevel, where you can directly manipulate the DOM to see what you are supposed to do with javascript, and immediately see the results on the webpage. Make a simple webpage, the most important point is that your elements all have a property called "id", and try to play with this toplevel before understanding it. A typical example is : <html> <body> <div id="example"> Blabla </div> <p id="aparagraph"> Blibli <p> </body> </html> Then, in order : - try to make a table programmatically (using the Mozilla Developper Library). - use httprequests. - animate svg pictures - use canvas. Then if you learn about what javascript calls "prototypes", you're done learning javascript, and you can do all this in ocaml. Good luck Pierre Em 20/12/2012, às 17:41, bob zhang escreveu: > > Dear List, > I tried several times using js_of_ocaml, but did not get a working example yet, it always gives me some error message like missing some primitives. > I am absolutely a newbie in javascript, is there some simple working examples online? > > I followed this thread, http://toss.sourceforge.net/ocaml.html, but the output JsClient.js does not work as I expected > Thanks in advance! > > -- > Regards > -- Bob ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

This is not what I would expect; I understand reverting this perfectly is probably not easy or even possible, but some form of rollbacks that allows to revert to a clean state if we didn't do anything really crazy would be appreciated.

You can find several examples of projects using js_of_ocaml on the documentation page: http://ocsigen.org/js_of_ocaml/ The source code of these examples is availailable on the darcs repository: http://ocsigen.org/darcsweb/?r=js_of_ocaml;a=tree;f=/examples If you want to use javascript mixed with standard server-side web actions, I recommend you to use Eliom too. The tutorial page (http://ocsigen.org/tutorial/) is a good start. The first tutorial (http://ocsigen.org/tutorial/application) explains server and client interactions. Let me know if that helps, -- db0 sur http://db0.fr/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
