A palindrome is a phrase that is spelled the same way, backwards and forwards (ignoring spacing and punctuation). For example, the following phrases are palindromes:
Madam
Was it a cat I saw?
He did, eh?
Go hang a salami, I’m a lasagna hog
.Poor Dan is in a droop
You will create an express server with a single page at the location / that will provide the user with a web page to allow them to check if a phrase is a palindrome. The entire checking operation will be done using client-side JavaScript.
The Server
Your server this week should not check for palindromes! Your server only exists to allow someone to get to the HTML Page and download the associated assets to run the palindrome checking page.
/ The Whole Palindrome Checker
Your page should have a few basic user interface elements:
A Header tag, with an h1 naming your site, with a title for your page
Your page will have a form with the following:
A textarea with a name of phrase
A buttom to submit the form
Get the value of the textarea
Lowercase the text Strip all non alphanumeric text; this includes spaces. For example, Hello, 2 the world! becomes hello, 2 the world! when lowercased and then hello2theworld when stripped of all nonalphanumeric text
Determine whether or not the text is a palindrome Add a list item to the #attempts list of terms you have checked. This list item should have a class of is-palindrome if it is a palindrome, or not-palindrome if it is not.
If the user does not have a value for the textarea when they submit, you should not continue the palindrome checking and instead should inform them of an error somehow.
The style
You will style your page using at least 10 CSS selectors for general CSS styling. You will place the CSS in its own file.
You must style the is-palindrome class to make text have a color of #0000FF and not-palindrome class to make text have a color of #FF0000 .
