Inline Scripts

1. Inline Scripts are stored in the Body section of a web page
An Inline script is executed in response to some Event.
In the following example we execute some code that displays an alert box in response to a click on a link, try it.

Here is the code responsible

<div onclick="alert('Hi there');">Click me</div>

We have

• We have a div tag with an event listner added
• The code "alert('Hi there');" is called via an onclick event
• The javascript method alert() displays an alert box with the text 'Hi There'
• Note because we wanted to display some text we used a combination of single and double quotes which must be nested correctly

Exercise
Create a web page containing the code above and display it in a browser
