Lesson 7, Chapter 14

Chapter 14 in Creating a Web Site taught us about JavaScript.  Seriously, I think I could read this chapter a dozen times and still feel like my head is swimming.  This is definitely a learning process for me.  And there is nothing in particular that I have questions about, I just feel like this entire chapter was very technical and hard for me to follow.  That being said, I really like the idea of using collapsible text in my site.  This is a feature I’ve seen on lots of other sites that I think gives a really streamlined look and appealed to my natural tendency to have order in my surroundings.  In my head it’s the same premise as building huge shelves to store my kids’ toys in, then not being satisfied with them until I had custom doors installed too.  I like the idea of only looking at what you need to be looking at right at that moment.  I’m thinking since I’m still wanting to do a web site for my family’s bakery, maybe I could use collapsible text on the product list for folks who need to see the ingredients or something like that?  Since allergies are such an issue these days.  I can think of lots of ways to make it work for my purposes.
