• Use (R,G,B) of (0, 102, 204) (#0066CC) for the page's background color to match the blue in the image. Use white for the font color.
• The main design is a table with 4 rows and two columns with all of the cells in the first column merged. My cells (td elements) have a solid white border.
• Take the third letter of the user's first name, the second and fourth letters of the user's last name, and find the corresponding silly name. Extract these letters, then use the silly name (see the PoopyStart.txt file below) that has the same position as the letter does in its array.
• You will may need JavaScript's charAt(), toUpperCase(), substr(), the array's indexOf()
• Note that the arrays provided are in all small letters. Do not go in "by hand" and capitalize the first letter of each element in the first two arrays. Instead loop over the arrays and do that in code.
• (If the person's name was not long enough, choose an index at random.)
• Concatenate the two silly names derived from the user's last name. Create the full silly name and display it.
• If the user changes the text in the text inputs, clear out your displayed answer.
• Post it on your alpha account and send me the link.
