You asked for it! Here ya go! This is how to make the hangman games like these...

Unzip the attached file to find the compressed folder called, "hangman." There are 13 necessary files within this folder.

Use an html editor or a simple text editing program to edit and save this file:

hangman.html

Here's what to do...

Find the code between the dotted lines below in the hangman.html file:

Change the words (vocab) and clues (def) BETWEEN THE QUOTES ONLY.

If you want to change the number of words, you must also change the RED number THREE TIMES. (Notice that the numbering starts with ZERO, so 0-9 gives us 10 words/clues.)

---------------------------------------------

var vocab = new Array(10);

vocab[0]="ablate";
vocab[1]="ablation";
vocab[2]="abrasion";
vocab[3]="absolute age";
vocab[4]="absolute humidity";
vocab[5]="abyssal plain";
vocab[6]="accretionary wedge";
vocab[7]="acid mine drainage";
vocab[8]="active continental margin";
vocab[9]="adamantine luster";


 
 var def = new Array(10);
 
def[0]="To become smaller. When a glacier _______s it loses mass by a combination of melting, sublimation, and calving.";
def[1]="The processes by which a glacier loses mass.";
def[2]="The processes of wearing down rock by grinding, rubbing, scraping, scratching, scouring, chipping, and pitting.";
def[3]="The numerical age or isotopic age, usually of a rock, and with some degree of error.";
def[4]="The mass of water contained as vapor in a certain volume of air, usually given in units of grams per cubic meter (g/m^3).";
def[5]="The broad expanse of the ocean floor that is nearly flat and at a depth of about 5000 m.";
def[6]="A wedge-shaped volume of thrusted and folded rock and sediment scraped and thrust-faulted off a subducting plate onto the edge of a continent.";
def[7]="Acidic water draining from a mine.";
def[8]="The edge of a continent with a current plate boundary.";
def[9]="A bright mineral luster that resembles the way a diamond shines.";



var sr = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);

----------------------------------------------

Upload the entire directory (folder titled, "hangman"), with all thirteen files, to your web page! It'll be here:

www._________.com/hangman/hangman.html

To create different games, just rename the hangman.html file to something different (rocks.html or stars.html etc.) and save and upload them to your server under the same directory (folder titled, "hangman").

Their addresses will be:
www._________.com/hangman/rocks.html
www._________.com/hangman/stars.html
etc.

AND... LET US SEE WHAT YOU MADE!!!
