So I have this stupid javascript problem, and I need some help!


Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>mahh...</title>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <style> #p {font-size:30px;} </style>
</head>

<body>

<p>Choose your favorite color:</p>

<form>
<select id="select" onchange="foo()">
  <option>Colors</option>
  <option value="red">RED</option>
  <option value="blue">BLUE</option>
  <option value="green">GEEEN</option>
  
</select>
</form>


<p id="p"></p>

<script>
function foo() {
    var color = document.getElementById("select").value;
    document.getElementById("p").innerHTML = "Your favorite color is: " + color;
}

</script>

</body>
</html>

How to have body background same as selected color ?

E.g. If you select the red color, body background should be red...


Fucking DOM!

var colors = ["white", "red", "blue", "green"];
var color = document.getElementById("select").value;
var selection = document.getElementById("select").selectedIndex;
document.getElementById("p").innerHTML = "Your favorite color is: " + color;
document.body.style.background = colors[selection];
}

You can use a module called Jquery to do so.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>

function foo() {
var color = document.getElementById("select").value;
document.getElementById("p").innerHTML = "Your favorite color is: " + color;
$(this).css('background-color', color);
}

</script>

The vanilla JS response posted will work.

But, why don't you just use jQuery? You would remove the 'onchange' attribute, then it would be this:

Code:
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#select').change(function() {
   $('body').css('background-color', $(this).val());
  });
});

Why are you starting a java script with <!DOCTYPE html>?
