Question

What is the purpose of the parameter $name ?

(a) Document Name

(b) Input Name

(c) Output Name

(d) ID

The question was asked by my college director while I was bunking the class.

The doubt is from Crafting the Public API in chapter Parsing, Benchmarking and Logging of JavaScript

Answer 1

The correct answer is (b) Input Name

The best I can explain: getinputhtml() accepts two arguments: $name and $value. The parameter $name is the name you should assign your HTML input name= attribute.
