    Web Page Design with Netscape 7.1 Walter Gajewski, Academic Computing Services Francine Vasilomanolakis, CSULB Dept. of Education STEP 1: Downloading Netscape 7.1 It is possible to lay out and publish a web page with Netscape Composer, a software application included with the Netscape (version 7.0) Web Browser (free from Netscape). To install Netscape (version 7.1) on your own computer go out to the Netscape web site http://www.netscape.com and click on “Netscape 7.1” located under “Tools” and often under “Dowloads of the Day”. From the “downloads” page you can either install Netscape directly to your personal computer or have them mail you their free CD-ROM. Once Netscape is installed on your computer, you’re ready to create your first web page. STEP 2: Getting a CSULB internet (email) account Before you start authoring your on-line masterpiece you will have to apply for a campus web account. CSULB students can create an email account by going to http://www.csulb.edu/namemaster/ You will now have a user name and password. STEP 3: Creating or Editing a Web Page Note: The index.html file is the Home Page in your web site. When others visit your web site, they will automatically be directed to your index.html file. If this file is missing, all the contents of your directory will be displayed as a list so you must call the file of your home page index.html You have three options available with Netscape Composer: 1. You can create a brand new web page 2.

  • Chapter 2 Creating Web Pages: XHTML
    Chapter 2 Creating Web Pages: XHTML A Web page is a document, identi¯ed by an URL, that can be retrieved on the Web. Typically, a Web page is written in HTML, the Hypertext Markup Language. When a Web browser receives an HTML document, it can format and render the content for viewing, listening, or printing. The user can also follow embedded hyperlinks, or simply links, to visit other Web pages. HTML enables you to structure and organize text, graphics, pictures, sound, video, and other media content for processing and display by browsers. HTML supports headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, links, images, forms, frames, and so on. The major part of a website is usually a set of HTML documents. Learning and understanding HTML is fundamental to Web Design and Programming. To create HTML ¯les you may use any standard text editor such as vi, emacs, word (MS/Windows), and SimpleText (Mac/OS). Specialized tools for creating and editing HTML pages are also widely available. After creating an HTML ¯le and saving it in a ¯le, you can open that ¯le (by double-clicking the ¯le or using the browser File>Open File menu option) and look at the page. XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language) is a modern version of HTML that is recommended for creating new Web pages. Having evolved from version 2.0 to 4.01, HTML now gets reformulated in XML (Extensible Markup Language) and becomes XHTML 1.0. 41 42 CHAPTER 2. CREATING WEB PAGES: XHTML XML conforming documents follow strict XML syntax rules and therefore become easily manipulated by programs of all kinds{a great advantage.

  • Web Page Designing : an Introduction
    DRTC Annual Seminar on Electronic Sources of Information 1-3 March 2000 Paper: CB WEB PAGE DESIGNING : AN INTRODUCTION M.A.Sangeetha, Documentation Research and Training Centre, Indian Statistical Institute, 8th Mile, Mysore Road, Bangalore 560 059 E-mail: [email protected] Geologists and natural biologists have proved that world has been shrinking over the past millions of years. But technologists have proved that it does not take even half a century to shrink so much (though not geographically), thanks to the advent of Internet and advances in telecommunication. Today, we can learn about any corner of the world with a mere click of the mouse. Internet has become the world’s window to information and Web pages serve as the information-carrying documents. This paper gives an introduction to Web- related concepts, Web page designing using HTML codes and MS FrontPage. 1. INTRODUCTION As a natural phenomenon, the world has been shrinking to a great extent over the past millions of years. But in a sense, the man-made technologies have overtaken Nature and in just a few decades’ time, it has been made possible for people all over the world to come closer and today the place we live in is called as a “global village” to point out the very less time and effort required to commute to and communicate with any part of the world. The computer and telecommunication technologies have contributed to a great extent in this direction. In particular, the recent trends in Internet arena like the Web and E-mail services have taken us a long way through the glorious path of communication between people in any part of the world.

DISSERTATION COMMITTEE iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the multiple institutions that participated in this study. Without the cooperation, hard work, and sharing attitudes of their faculty, this work would not have been possible. Further, a special Kiwi spent countless hours of effort on this project, and major thanks are long overdue. I would also like to honor my "mentors" whose sage advise guided me through this project and greatly enhanced my overall career development. I want my family to know how much I am blessed by their unwavering love and support. Their adoration of me and my efforts inspired me many a time. I also want to offer a special thanks to my colleague and dissertation partner, whose weekly support at the end propelled me to the finish line. 1'm looking forward to our exciting careers as they unfold before us. Saving the best for last, an important acknowledgement goes to my husband, who deserves an honorary PbD in patience, caring, and understanding for his unwavering support throughout the entire process.
