Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this WWE Champions quiz idea, and let me tell you, it was a bit of a rollercoaster. I wanted to make something fun, you know, for wrestling fans, but I’m no coding whiz.
First, I brainstormed some questions. This was the fun part! I dug up trivia about classic wrestlers, memorable matches, championship reigns – the works. I wanted a good mix of easy, medium, and hard questions to keep it interesting.
Then came the tricky part: actually building the thing. I started simple, just a basic HTML page with some questions and multiple-choice answers. No fancy styling, just the bare bones. I used <p> tags for the questions and <ul> with <li> tags for the answer options. Something like this:
What is the name of the Undertaker Finisher?
- Tombstone
- F5
- RKO
Next, I needed a way to check if the answers were right or wrong. I dabbled with some basic JavaScript for this. I added some event listeners, you know, the “onclick” stuff, to the answer options. When someone clicked an answer, it would trigger a function to check if it was correct.
I cobbled together some “if/else” statements (my best friend in this project!) to compare the selected answer with the correct answer. If it was right, I’d show a little “Correct!” message. If not, it was “Try again!” I used the <strong> tag to make these messages stand out a bit.
I ran into some problems, of course. Sometimes the JavaScript wouldn’t work, and I’d have to fiddle with the code for ages to figure out what I’d messed up. Usually, it was a missing semicolon or a typo – the usual suspects.
After I got the basic functionality working, I decided to add a simple scoring system. I created a variable to keep track of the score and incremented it every time someone got a question right.
The End Result
It’s not the prettiest quiz in the world, but it works! It’s got a bunch of WWE trivia questions, multiple-choice answers, and it tells you if you’re right or wrong. Plus, it keeps score. It was a fun little project, and I definitely learned a thing or two about basic web development along the way. I played this game so many times, I can’t even remember it anymore.
