make a textfield to enter a username, which the website will save and refer to again
To create a text field to enter a username on a website and save it for future reference, you can use HTML and JavaScript.
Here's an example of how you can create a text field in HTML:
html Copy code
<input type="text" id="username" placeholder="Enter your username">
To save and refer to the entered username, you can use JavaScript to retrieve the value from the text field and store it in a variable or send it to a backend server for further processing. Here's an example using JavaScript:
javascript Copy code
// Retrieve the value from the text field
var username = document.getElementById("username").value;
// You can now use the 'username' variable to refer to the entered username
Remember to appropriately handle the submitted data, such as validating it and securely storing it on the server, if necessary.
👩💻 it should be displayed in the top right corner under a round picture
To display the entered username in the top right corner under a round picture, you can use CSS alongside the HTML and JavaScript.
HTML:
html Copy code
<div class="profile">
<div class="profile-picture"></div>
<input type="text" id="username" placeholder="Enter your username">
</div>
CSS:
css Copy code
.profile {
position: relative;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: flex-end;
}
.profile-picture {
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
border-radius: 50%;
background-color: gray;
margin-right: 10px;
}
.username {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
font-size: 14px; /* adjust the font size as needed */
}
JavaScript:
javascript Copy code
// Retrieve the value from the text field
var usernameInput = document.getElementById("username");
var username = usernameInput.value;
// Display the username under the profile picture
var usernameDisplay = document.createElement("div");
usernameDisplay.innerHTML = username;
usernameDisplay.classList.add("username");
document.querySelector(".profile").appendChild(usernameDisplay);
In this example, we have a parent div with the class .profile that contains the profile picture (profile-picture) and the input field (username). The CSS code adds appropriate styles to position the elements as described.
The JavaScript code retrieves the value from the text field, creates a new div element to display the username (usernameDisplay), and adds it as a child element of the .profile div.
Please note that the code above is a basic example. You may need to modify it to fit your specific layout or styling requirements.
👩💻 add a button for the input
To add a button alongside the input field, you can modify the HTML code as follows:
HTML:
html Copy code
<div class="profile">
<div class="profile-picture"></div>
<input type="text" id="username" placeholder="Enter your username">
<button id="saveButton">Save</button>
</div>
With this updated HTML code, we have added a <button> element with the id attribute set to "saveButton".
Next, you can update the JavaScript code to respond to the button click event and save the entered username:
JavaScript:
javascript Copy code
// Retrieve the necessary elements
var usernameInput = document.getElementById("username");
var saveButton = document.getElementById("saveButton");
// Add event listener to the button
saveButton.addEventListener("click", function() {
// Retrieve the value from the text field
var username = usernameInput.value;
// Display the username under the profile picture
var usernameDisplay = document.createElement("div");
usernameDisplay.innerHTML = username;
usernameDisplay.classList.add("username");
document.querySelector(".profile").appendChild(usernameDisplay);
});
In the updated JavaScript code, we added an event listener to the saveButton element. When the button is clicked, the function inside the event listener is executed.
Inside this function, we retrieve the value from the text field, create the div (usernameDisplay) to display the entered username, and append it to the parent .profile div, just as in the previous example.
Now, when the user enters a username and clicks the "Save" button, the username will be displayed under the profile picture.
What is single sign on
Single sign-on (SSO) is a property of access control of multiple related, but independent software systems. With SSO, a user logs in once and gains access to all systems without being prompted to log in again at each of them. Using SSO, users and administrators can manage access to multiple systems from a single point of authentication. SSO is used mainly by organizations to provide access to their websites and applications for their employees. It is also used to provide access to websites for users with multiple accounts. SSO does not only simplify the user sign-in process, but also provides better security for user accounts since only one set of credentials needs to be protected. Additionally, because only one sign-in is required, SSO eliminates the need for users to remember individual usernames and passwords for each account.

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. AI bots are able to learn from conversations with users and expand their knowledge this way.
SheCodes Athena will help you with technical questions about your code using artificial intelligence to find the answer. Imagine a super powerful human who has memorized everything on the internet and can access that knowledge in a matter of seconds. 🤯
SheCodes Athena can answer most coding-related questions, even complicated ones! It can even find bugs in your code and tell you how to fix them in just a few seconds. Impressive, right?
Just remember we're still in testing mode so the AI may return strange or incorrect replies. Feel free to message us if this happens!
SheCodes Athena can only reply to coding-related technical questions. The same type of questions you would ask in the channels on Slack.
For questions that are not coding-related, write us here 😃
You should treat Athena like a SheCodes team member, so always be polite! 😊 Ask your questions as detailed as possible, just like you would do on Slack.
Here are some examples:
- Prettier isn't working on my VS Code. How do I fix this?
- How do I make bullet points with different colors using the list element?
- My code in Codesandbox is having some issues. Can you please tell me what the issue is? [Include the link to your Codesandbox]
For now, SheCodes Athena is limited to 5 questions per day for each student.
In that case, you can either ask SheCodes Athena a follow-up question, or you can post on the designated weekly channel on Slack!
Our technical assistants are still available on Slack and are always happy to help! 😍💪
Remember, questions are limited to 1000 characters.
- If you're working with an HTML file: Post a snippet of your code related to the issue you're having (just copy the code and paste it into the question box).
- If you're working with Codesandbox: Good news, you can just post the link to your Codesandbox and the AI Assistant will be able to view your code.
- If you have a longer question that would require an entire HTML file or more than 1000 characters, post it in the designated weekly channels on Slack! 😃
Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, among other elements. She received her name from the city of Athens, which she is known for protecting.
Much like the goddess Athena, SheCodes Athena is also incredibly wise and can solve complicated coding puzzles in a matter of seconds! 😍
Not likely. AI can automate tasks and make developers' jobs more efficient but it can't fully replace the human ability to deal with complex software. And AI will still require human developers to supervise and improve it further.
So developers may see their tasks change but they won't be replaced by AI. 👩💻🤝💻
