Chat Room

Build a basic chat room. The purpose of this exercise is to practice getting user input and manipulating the DOM through javascript with jQuery.

Requirements:

  • Must have a form
    • this form must have at least 2 fields
      • an input field for username
      • a textarea field for the message to send to the chat room
    • this form must have a submit button
      • when the user clicks on this button it must send the text along with the username to the chatroom's log
      • after the click, the textarea is cleared but the fields with the username must remain unchanged.

-A window for all messages to appear. (hint: an Unordered List, with list elements (messages), inside of a div)

Bonus:

  • Add a timestamp
  • Add fancy styles!
