Frystyk W3C/MIT L. Masinter Xerox P. Leach Microsoft T. Berners-Lee W3C/MIT June, 1999 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1 Status of this Memo This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

Copyright Notice Copyright (C) The Internet Society (1999). All Rights Reserved. Abstract The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application-level protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. It is a generic, stateless, protocol which can be used for many tasks beyond its use for hypertext, such as name servers and distributed object management systems, through extension of its request methods, error codes and headers [47]. A feature of HTTP is the typing and negotiation of data representation, allowing systems to be built independently of the data being transferred. HTTP has been in use by the World-Wide Web global information initiative since 1990. This specification defines the protocol referred to as “HTTP/1.1”, and is an update to RFC 2068 [33].

This information space is the basis of, and is shared by, a number of information systems. In each of these systems, people and software retrieve, create, display, analyze, relate, and reason about resources. The World Wide Web uses relatively simple technologies with sufficient scalability, efficiency and utility that they have resulted in a remarkable information space of interrelated resources, growing across languages, cultures, and media. In an effort to preserve these properties of the information space as the technologies evolve, this architecture document discusses the core design components of the Web. They are identification of resources, representation of resource state, and the protocols that support the interaction between agents and resources in the space. We relate core design components, constraints, and good practices to the principles and properties they support. Status of this document This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication.

  • Spring Form Tag Library
    Spring Form Tag Library The Spring Web MVC framework provides a set of tags in the form of a tag library, which is used to construct views (web pages). The Spring Web MVC integrates Spring's form tag library. Spring's form tag accesses to the command object, and also it refers to the data our Spring controller deals with. A Command object can be defined as a JavaBean that stores user input, usually entered through HTML form is called the Command object. The Spring form tag makes it easier to develop, maintain, and read JSPs. The Spring form tags are used to construct user interface elements such as text and buttons. Spring form tag library has a set of tags such as <form> and <input>. Each form tag provides support for the set of attributes of its corresponding HTML tag counterpart, which allows a developer to develop UI components in JSP or HTML pages. Configuration – spring-form.tld The Spring form tag library comes bundled in spring-webmvc.jar. The spring- form.tld is known as Tag Library Descriptor (tld) file, which is available in a web application and generates HTML tags. The Spring form tag library must be defined at the top of the JSP page. The following directive needs to be added to the top of your JSP pages, in order to use Spring form tags from this library: <%@ taglib prefix="form" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags/form" %> Here, form is the tag name prefix, which will be used for the tags from this Spring form tag library in JSP pages.

  • Dynamic Forms Guide for Faculty and Staff
    Dynamic Forms User Guide University of Miami Graduate School Dynamic Forms Basics • Basic Definitions: there are two types of form users – Initiator (student): the user who starts a form. – Co-signer (faculty and staff): a user to whom a form is routed, after the initiator has submitted the form. The co-signer may just need to review and sign the form, but in some cases, they might have to complete a section of the form. Forms may have more than one co-signer. • Dynamic Forms uses UM Single Sign-On (SSO) for every form, so there is no need for additional login credentials. For every form, all users must use their official UM email address. Therefore, all forms must be initiated by the student who is making the request and forms can only be signed by the specific co-signers to whom the form is sent (i.e. Graduate Program Directors, Associate Deans of Graduate Education, Advisors and Committee Members). • Co-signers will receive an email notification from [email protected] whenever they need to sign a form. Therefore, this email address should be added to co-signers’ safe senders’ lists to ensure the notification email does not land in junk/spam/clutter folders. To visit Dynamic Forms for any other reason, click here to go to the home page. • Signatures will appear as a timestamp with the user’s printed name and the date and time of signature. • Users will only be able to write or click on the section of the form they are allowed to fill out.

    Language Learning & Technology January 1998, Volume 1, Number 2 http://llt.msu.edu/vol1num2/emerging/ pp. 9-15 (page numbers in PDF differ and should not be used for reference) EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES Dymamic Web Page Creation Robert Godwin-Jones Virginia Comonwealth University Contents: • Plug-ins and Applets • JavaScript • Dynamic HTML and Style Sheets • Instructional Uses • Resource List While remaining a powerful repository of information, the Web is being transformed into a medium for creating truly interactive learning environments, leading toward a convergence of Internet connectivity with the functionality of traditional multimedia authoring tools like HyperCard, Toolbook, and Authorware. Certainly it is not fully interactive yet, but that is undeniably the trend as manifested in the latest (version 4) Web browsers. "Dynamic HTML," incorporated into the new browsers, joins plug-ins, Web forms, Java applets, and JavaScript as options for Web interactivity. Plug-ins and Applets While Web pages are beginning to behave more like interactive applications, traditional authoring tools are themselves becoming Internet-savvy, primarily through the use of "plug-in" versions of players which integrate with Web browsers. The most commonly used plug-in today is Macromedia's "Shockwave," used to Web-enable such applications as Director, Authorware, and Flash. "Shocked" Web pages can be very interactive and provide a visually appealing means of interacting with users (as in some sample ESL exercises from Jim Duber). Plug-ins are easy to use -- they just need to be downloaded and installed. Some come bundled with Netscape and Microsoft's browsers, which simplifies considerably the installation process (and gives developers the confidence that most users will actually have the plug-in installed).

  • Chapter 10 Document Object Model and Dynamic HTML
    Chapter 10 Document Object Model and Dynamic HTML The term Dynamic HTML, often abbreviated as DHTML, refers to the technique of making Web pages dynamic by client-side scripting to manipulate the document content and presen- tation. Web pages can be made more lively, dynamic, or interactive by DHTML techniques. With DHTML you can prescribe actions triggered by browser events to make the page more lively and responsive. Such actions may alter the content and appearance of any parts of the page. The changes are fast and e±cient because they are made by the browser without having to network with any servers. Typically the client-side scripting is written in Javascript which is being standardized. Chapter 9 already introduced Javascript and basic techniques for making Web pages dynamic. Contrary to what the name may suggest, DHTML is not a markup language or a software tool. It is a technique to make dynamic Web pages via client-side programming. In the past, DHTML relies on browser/vendor speci¯c features to work. Making such pages work for all browsers requires much e®ort, testing, and unnecessarily long programs. Standardization e®orts at W3C and elsewhere are making it possible to write standard- based DHTML that work for all compliant browsers. Standard-based DHTML involves three aspects: 447 448 CHAPTER 10. DOCUMENT OBJECT MODEL AND DYNAMIC HTML Figure 10.1: DOM Compliant Browser Browser Javascript DOM API XHTML Document 1. Javascript|for cross-browser scripting (Chapter 9) 2. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)|for style and presentation control (Chapter 6) 3. Document Object Model (DOM)|for a uniform programming interface to access and manipulate the Web page as a document When these three aspects are combined, you get the ability to program changes in Web pages in reaction to user or browser generated events, and therefore to make HTML pages more dynamic.
