- Read Chapter 6 in The Live Web.
- Complete the (Classic) Quickstart for SquareTag
- Read and understand (Classic) Tips for Developers. I strongly recommend using either the command line or Web-based parser to check your ruleset for syntax errors before you try to run it.

- Create a ruleset that fires a notification on
ktest.heroku.com
. You will need to register it using KDK, but you won't have to install it in SquareTag for it to run onktest
. - Modify the rule you created in (1) to place two notification boxes on the page from the same rule.
- Add a second rule that places a third notification box on the page. This notification box should say "Hello " followed by the value of query string. If the query string is empty, say "Hello Monkey". You may find the
url
function in thepage
library helpful. - Write a function that given a string in standard URL encoding (e.g.
<key0>=<value0>&<key1>=<value1>...
) returns the value of the keyname
. (Hint, regular expressions and the string operators will be useful here.) Use function with the query string to modify the rule from (3) so that the notification says "Hello " followed by the value of the keyname
. Do not assume that the query string will contain only one key-value pair. So, if the url werehttp://ktest.heroku.com/b16x12232?name=Phil
, the notification would say "Hello Phil". Be sure you still default to "Hello Monkey" if there is no query string or there is no key calledname
. - Write a rule that counts the number of times it has fired and stops showing its notification after five times for any given user. Display the count in the notification.
- Write a rule that clears the count from (5) if a query string parameter named
clear
is given in exampley.com URL. - How would you modify the rule in (5) so that it stops showing the notification after it has been shown five times altogether (not just to a specific user)?
