Just Another Perl Hack Neil Bowers1 Canon Research Centre Europe
Weblint: Just Another Perl Hack Neil Bowers1 Canon Research Centre Europe Abstract Weblint is a utility for checking the syntax and style of HTML pages. It was inspired by lint [15], which performs a similar function for C and C++ programmers. Weblint does not aspire to be a strict SGML validator, but to provide helpful comments for humans. The importance of quality assurance for web sites is introduced, and one particular area, validation of HTML, is described in more detail. The bulk of the paper is devoted to weblint: what it is, how it is used, and the design and implementation of the current development version. 1. Introduction The conclusion opens with a summary of the information and opinions given in this paper. A Web sites are becoming an increasingly critical part of selection of the lessons learned over the last four years how many companies do business. For many companies is given, followed by plans for the future, and related web sites are their business. It is therefore critical that ideas. owners of web sites perform regular testing and analysis, to ensure quality of service. 2. Web Site Quality Assurance There are many different checks and analyses which The following are some of the questions you should be you can run on a site. For example, how usable is your asking yourself if you have a web presence. I have site when accessed via a modem? An incomplete list of limited the list to those points which are relevant to similar analyses are given at the start of Section 2. -
Browser Requirements & Recommended
Browser Requirements & Recommended System Settings Arena applications are designed to work with the latest standards-compliant browsers. Updated for Arena Fall 2021 Arena 1 Arena Arena Arena Browser 4 4 4 Supported Validated FileDrop PartsList Exchange Mozilla Firefox Latest2 l l l l Microsoft Edge Latest2 l l l l l Microsoft 11 l l l l l Internet Explorer Google Chrome Latest2 l l l l l Apple Safari3 l Apple Mobile Safari Opera For each of its applications, Arena certifies web browsers as either “supported,” “validated,” or “unsupported.” The meaning of each classification is as follows: Supported browsers are those that Arena believes comply with any and all web standards that are required for an application to work correctly, though Arena itself does not test the application with all supported browsers on a formal, ongoing basis. However, if we or our users identify a blocking functional or cosmetic problem that occurs when using the application with a supported browser, Arena makes efforts to correct the problem on a timely basis. If a problem with a supported browser cannot be corrected in a timely fashion, Arena reclassifies the browser as unsupported until the problem is resolved. Validated browsers are those upon which Arena has executed the validation protocol for the Arena application. The execution record is available to our customers through Arena Validate. Unsupported browsers are those with which an application may or may not work properly. If a functional or serious cosmetic problem occurs when using the application with an unsupported browser, Arena does not make any effort to correct the problem. -

WEB-BASED ANNOTATION and COLLABORATION Electronic Document Annotation Using a Standards-Compliant Web Browser
WEB-BASED ANNOTATION AND COLLABORATION Electronic Document Annotation Using a Standards-compliant Web Browser Trev Harmon School of Technology, Brigham Young University, 265 CTB, Provo, Utah, USA Keywords: Annotation, collaboration, web-based, e-learning. Abstract: The Internet provides a powerful medium for communication and collaboration through web-based applications. However, most web-based annotation and collaboration applications require additional software, such as applets, plug-ins, and extensions, in order to work correctly with the web browsers typically found on today’s computers. This in combination with the ever-growing number of file formats poses an obstacle to the wide-scale deployment of annotation and collaboration systems across the heterogeneous networks common in the academic and corporate worlds. In order to address these issues, a web-based system was developed that allows for freeform (handwritten) and typed annotation of over twenty common file formats via a standards-compliant web browser without the need of additional software. The system also provides a multi-tiered security architecture that allows authors control over who has access to read and annotate their documents. While initially designed for use in academia, flexibility within the system allows it to be used for many annotation and collaborative tasks such as distance-learning, collaborative projects, online discussion and bulletin boards, graphical wikis, and electronic grading. The open-source nature of the system provides the opportunity for its continued development and extension. 1 INTRODUCTION did not foresee the broad spectrum of uses expected of their technologies by today’s users. While serving While the telegraph and telephone may have cracked this useful purpose, such add-on software can open the door of instantaneous, worldwide become problematic in some circumstances because communication, the Internet has flung it wide open. -

Document Object Model
Document Object Model CITS3403: Agile Web Development Semester 1, 2021 Introduction • We’ve seen JavaScript core – provides a general scripting language – but why is it so useful for the web? • Client-side JavaScript adds collection of objects, methods and properties that allow scripts to interact with HTML documents dynamic documents client-side programming • This is done by bindings to the Document Object Model (DOM) – “The Document Object Model is a platform- and language-neutral interface that will allow programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the content, structure and style of documents.” – “The document can be further processed and the results of that processing can be incorporated back into the presented page.” • DOM specifications describe an abstract model of a document – API between HTML document and program – Interfaces describe methods and properties – Different languages will bind the interfaces to specific implementations – Data are represented as properties and operations as methods • https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_htmldom.asp The DOM Tree • DOM API describes a tree structure – reflects the hierarchy in the XTML document – example... <html xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title> A simple document </title> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <th>Breakfast</th> <td>0</td> <td>1</td> </tr> <tr> <th>Lunch</th> <td>1</td> <td>0</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Execution Environment • The DOM tree also includes nodes for the execution environment in a browser • Window object represents the window displaying a document – All properties are visible to all scripts – Global variables are properties of the Window object • Document object represents the HTML document displayed – Accessed through document property of Window – Property arrays for forms, links, images, anchors, … • The Browser Object Model is sometimes used to refer to bindings to the browser, not specific to the current page (document) being rendered. -
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. -

Cascading Style Sheet Web Tool
CASCADING STYLE SHEET WEB TOOL _______________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of San Diego State University _______________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Computer Science _______________ by Kalthoum Y. Adam Summer 2011 iii Copyright © 2011 by Kalthoum Y. Adam All Rights Reserved iv DEDICATION I dedicate this work to my parents who taught me not to give up on fulfilling my dreams. To my faithful husband for his continued support and motivation. To my sons who were my great inspiration. To all my family and friends for being there for me when I needed them most. v ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Cascading Style Sheet Web Tool by Kalthoum Y. Adam Master of Science in Computer Science San Diego State University, 2011 Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) is a style language that separates the style of a web document from its content. It is used to customize the layout and control the appearance of web pages written by markup languages. CSS saves time while developing the web page by applying the same layout and style to all pages in the website. Furthermore, it makes the website easy to maintain by just editing one file. In this thesis, we developed a CSS web tool that is intended to web developers who will hand-code their HTML and CSS to have a complete control over the web page layout and style. The tool is a form wizard that helps developers through a user-friendly interface to create a website template with a valid CSS and XHTML code. -

Developing an Open Source Option for NASA Software
Developing An Open Source Option for NASA Software Patrick J. Moran NASA Ames Research Center, M/S T27A-2 Moffett Field, CA, 94035, USA [email protected] NAS Technical Report NAS-03-nnn April 7,2003 Abstract We present arguments in favor of developing an Open Source option for NASA software; in particular we discuss how Open Source is compatible with NASA’s mission. We compare and contrast several of the leading Open Source licenses, and propose one - the Mozilla license - for use by NASA. We also address some of the related issues for NASA with respect to Open Source. In particular, we dis- cuss some of the elements in the “External Release of NASA Software” document (NPG 2210.1A) that will likely have to be changed in order to make Open Source a’reality withm the agency.
