Boolean Example – Data Type – JavaScript Syntax – JS Boolean Example

Purpose: – Illustrates the for the example.
Prerequistes:

Syntax: var myBool = new Boolean(); – Demonstrates creating a Boolean object and various ways to make it true or false

Restrictions: None

Notes:

  • You can build your own library of syntax examples by using same web site over and over and just add new files to it.

Instructions:

  1. Use Visual Web Developer 2008
  2. Create new web site;
    • Click File/New Web Site
    • Select ASP.NET Website Template
    • Select C-Sharp for Language
    • name of Web Site could be JavaScript_Syntax.
  3. Add New folder named “DataType”
    • Right-click project name in solution explorer;
    • add new folder;
    • name of folder could be: DataType
  4. Add HTML Page Named Boolean to DataType folder
    • Right-click DataType folder;
    • add new item;
    • Select HTML Page
    • HTML Page could be Boolean
  5. Click on copy code in code below to copy code into HTML Page Boolean.htm
  6. Right-click on HTML page Boolean and select view in browser
  7. View Example In Browser
