Topics
Focus areas for this sprint:
- Tagging documents to improve search results
- Tag APIs' methods and properties that are not tagged as a method (Tag: 'Method') or as a property (Tag: 'Property').
- Each of these entries need one of the two tags, but never both.
- There are a few ways to determine if it is a method or property
- It is said in the summary
- The example don't show brackets after a property name, but show some
after a method name:
var x = Event.scrollY;
means Event.scrollY is a property but:
var x = Event.getEventName();
means Event.getEventName is a method
- The interface page has a list of Properties and Methods (go to the Event page and check).
- Converting static code samples to be "live samples". Look for the tag NeedsLiveSample or NeedsExample.
