Question

What is the JavaScript code snippet to update the content of the timestamp element when the user clicks on it?

(a) timestamp.onLoad = function() { this.innerHTML = new Date().toString(); }

(b) timestamp.onclick = function() { this.innerHTML = new Date().toString(); }

(c) timestamp.onload = function() { this.innerHTML = new Date().toString(); }

(d) timestamp.onclick = function() { innerHTML = new Date().toString(); }

The question was posed to me in final exam.

Question is from JavaScript in Web Browsers in division Server-Side and Client-Side Scripting of JavaScript

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) timestamp.onclick = function() { this.innerHTML = new Date().toString(); }

The best I can explain: onclick() function is used to handle events when the user clicks on the mouse. The above code snippet updates the content of the timestamp element when the user clicks on it.
