Alright, so I saw this meme going around, you know, the one with the “no no, he’s got a point” caption. And I thought, “Hey, I can actually try to do something with this, not just chuckle and scroll.” So, I did.
The Setup
First, I grabbed a screenshot of the meme. You know, the classic one. I wanted to play with it, make it… interactive, I guess? My idea was pretty simple: make it so when you click on the image, something happens. Something kinda relevant to the “he’s got a point” vibe.
The Coding Part (It’s Not Scary, I Promise)
I’m no coding wizard, but I know the basics. I opened up my trusty text editor. Just a plain one, nothing fancy. Then, I whipped up a basic HTML file. You know, the usual stuff:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>No No, He's Got a Point</title>
</head>
<body>
<!-- My stuff goes here -->
</body>
</html>
I have created an area with comment tags, and now, I am ready to edit the core content.
I added an image tag, pointing to my meme screenshot.
Then, I wrapped that image tag in a <div>. Gave it an ID, like “meme-container” or something. Makes it easier to target later.
Next, I threw in a little <script> tag at the bottom, right before the closing </body> tag. This is where the magic (aka JavaScript) happens.
I want to add a reminder to it.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>No No, He's Got a Point</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="meme-container">
<img src="*" alt="No no, he's got a point meme" id="theMeme">
</div>
<p id="message" style="display: none;">See? Told ya he had a point!</p>
Inside the script tag, I wrote a super simple function. It basically says, “When someone clicks on the element with the ID ‘meme-container’, do something.” And that “something” was just displaying a hidden paragraph. The content just like: “See? Told ya he had a point!”.
The Result
I saved the file, opened it in my browser, and… it worked! I clicked on the meme, and the “See? Told ya he had a point!” message popped up.
I tried several times, and it worked perfectly.
It’s nothing groundbreaking, I know. But it was a fun little experiment. It took a silly meme and turned it into a tiny, interactive thing. And honestly, that’s what I love about this kind of stuff – taking something simple and making it your own, even in a small way.
