Cascading Style Sheets Web Design in a Nutshell, 3rd Edition By Jennifer Niederst Robbins ............................................... Publisher: O'Reilly Pub Date: February 2006 Print ISBN-10: 0-596-00987-9 Print ISBN-13: 978-0-59-600987-8 Pages: 826 Table of Contents | Index Are you still designing web sites like it's 1999? If so, you're in for a surprise. Since the last edition of this book appeared five years ago, there has been a major climate change with regard to web standards. Designers are no longer using (X)HTML as a design tool, but as a means of defining the meaning and structure of content. Cascading Style Sheets are no longer just something interesting to tinker with, but rather a reliable method for handling all matters of presentation, from fonts and colors to the layout of the entire page. In fact, following the standards is now a mandate of professional web design. Our popular reference, Web Design in a Nutshell, is one of the first books to capture this new web landscape with an edition that's been completely rewritten and expanded to reflect the state of the art. In addition to being an authoritative reference for (X)HTML and Cascading Style Sheets, this book also provides an overview of the unique requirements of designing for the Web and gets to the nitty-gritty of JavaScript and DOM Scripting, web graphics optimization, and multimedia production. It is an indispensable tool for web designers and developers of all levels. The third edition covers these contemporary web design topics: Structural layer: HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 (9 chapters), including an alphabetical reference of all elements, attributes and character entities Presentation layer: Ten all-new chapters on Cascading Style Sheets, Level 2.1, including an alphabetical reference of all properties and values. Behavior layer: JavaScript and scripting with the Document Object Model (DOM) Web environment: New web standards, browsers, display devices, accessibility, and internationalization Web graphics optimization: Producing lean and mean GIF, JPEG, PNG, and animated GIFs Multimedia: Web audio, video, Flash, and PDF Organized so that readers can find answers quickly, Web Design in a Nutshell, Third Edition helps experienced designers come up to speed quickly on standards-based web design, and serves as a quick reference for those already familiar with the new standards and technology. There are many books for web designers, but none that address such a wide variety of topics. Find out why nearly half a million buyers have made this the most popular web design book available.

  • It's Little Wonder That Longtime Windows Users Are Migrating in Droves to the New Mac
    Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition By Adam Goldstein, David Pogue ............................................... Publisher: O'Reilly Pub Date: September 2005 ISBN: 0-596-00660-8 Pages: 520 Table of Contents | Index It's little wonder that longtime Windows users are migrating in droves to the new Mac. They're fed up with the virus-prone Windows way of life, and they're lured by Apple's well-deserved reputation for producing great all-around computers that are reliable, user-friendly, well designed, and now-- with the $500 Mac mini--extremely affordable, too. Whether you're drawn to the Mac's stability, its stunning digital media suite, or the fact that a whole computer can look and feel as slick as your iPod, you can quickly and easily become a Mac convert. But consider yourself warned: a Mac isn't just a Windows machine in a prettier box; it's a whole different animal and a whole new computing experience. If you're contemplating--or have already made--the switch from a Windows PC to a Mac, you need Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition. This incomparable guide delivers what Apple doesn't: everything you need to know to successfully and painlessly move to a Mac. Missing Manual series creator and bestselling author David Pogue teams up with 17-year-old whiz kid and founder of GoldfishSoft (www.goldfishsoft.com) Adam Goldstein to cover every aspect of switching to a Mac--things like transferring email, files, and addresses from a PC to a Mac; getting acquainted with the Mac's interface; adapting to Mac versions of familiar programs (including Microsoft Office); setting up a network to share files with PCs and Macs; and using the printers, scanners, and other peripherals you already own.

  • Designing and Implementing the OP and OP2 Web Browsers
    Designing and Implementing the OP and OP2 Web Browsers CHRIS GRIER, SHUO TANG and SAMUEL T. KING, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Current web browsers are plagued with vulnerabilities, providing hackers with easy access to computer systems via browser-based attacks. Browser security efforts that retrofit existing browsers have had lim- ited success because the design of modern browsers is fundamentally flawed. To enable more secure web browsing, we design and implement a new browser, called the OP web browser, that attempts to improve the state-of-the-art in browser security. We combine operating system design principles with formal methods to design a more secure web browser by drawing on the expertise of both communities. Our design philosophy is to partition the browser into smaller subsystems and make all communication between subsystems sim- ple and explicit. At the core of our design is a small browser kernel that manages the browser subsystems and interposes on all communications between them to enforce our new browser security features. To show the utility of our browser architecture, we design and implement three novel security features. First, we develop flexible security policies that allow us to include browser plugins within our security framework. Second, we use formal methods to prove useful security properties including user interface invariants and browser security policy. Third, we design and implement a browser-level information-flow tracking system to enable post-mortem analysis of browser-based attacks. In addition to presenting the OP browser architecture, we discuss the design and implementation of a second version of OP, OP2, that includes features from other secure web browser designs to improve on the overall security and performance of OP.

  • Appendix a the Ten Commandments for Websites
    Appendix A The Ten Commandments for Websites Welcome to the appendixes! At this stage in your learning, you should have all the basic skills you require to build a high-quality website with insightful consideration given to aspects such as accessibility, search engine optimization, usability, and all the other concepts that web designers and developers think about on a daily basis. Hopefully with all the different elements covered in this book, you now have a solid understanding as to what goes into building a website (much more than code!). The main thing you should take from this book is that you don’t need to be an expert at everything but ensuring that you take the time to notice what’s out there and deciding what will best help your site are among the most important elements of the process. As you leave this book and go on to updating your website over time and perhaps learning new skills, always remember to be brave, take risks (through trial and error), and never feel that things are getting too hard. If you choose to learn skills that were only briefly mentioned in this book, like scripting, or to get involved in using content management systems and web software, go at a pace that you feel comfortable with. With that in mind, let’s go over the 10 most important messages I would personally recommend. After that, I’ll give you some useful resources like important websites for people learning to create for the Internet and handy software. Advice is something many professional designers and developers give out in spades after learning some harsh lessons from what their own bitter experiences.

  • Analiza in Primerjava Tehnologij Za Razvoj Spletnih Aplikacij
    Univerza v Mariboru, Fakulteta za elektrotehniko, računalništvo in informatiko Alois Paulin Analiza in primerjava tehnologij za razvoj spletnih aplikacij Diplomska naloga Maribor, september 2008 ANALIZA IN PRIMERJAVA TEHNOLOGIJ ZA RAZVOJ SPLETNIH APLIKACIJ Ključne besede: internet, spletne tehnologije, informatika, RIA, Ajax, XML UDK: 004.455:004.738.4(043.2) Povzetek: Pri snovanju spletnih aplikacij je zahtevan poseben poudarek pri izboru tehnologij, na katerih bo aplikacija zgrajena. Razpoložljiv nabor je odvisen od tehničnih pogojev izvajalnega okolja na strani strežnika in odjemalca, osnovnih vsebinskih zahtev, ter nenazadnje od znanja razpoložljivih kadrov. V našem delu smo ustvarili pregled nad tehnologijami za razvoj spletnih aplikacij, tako tistimi, ki so bile v uporabi v preteklosti, danes aktualnimi in tehnologijami, ki se razvijajo za prihodnost. Osredotočili smo se pri tem na tehnologije »odprtih standardov«, ki jih ponuja W3C. Tendence uporabe spletnih tehnologij gredo jasno v smer proizvajanja obilnih spletnih aplikacij (RIA), posledično smo izvedli primerjavo tehnoloških paketov, kot jih ponujajo različni proizvajalci za obvladovanje tega področja. Primerjali smo jih na podlagi kriterijev, ki vplivajo na odločitve za izbor tehnologij v praksi – torej tako iz vidika uporabnosti, kot tudi podprtosti tehnologije. V praktični analizi smo izdelali RIA aplikacijo za poslovanje mladinske organizacije, ki gradi na tehnologijah odprtih standardov, pri tem pa prišli do sklepa, da te tehnologije niso še dovolj široko podprte. ANALYSIS AND COMPARSION OF WEB TECHNOLOGIES Keywords: internet, web technologies, informatics, RIA, Ajax, XML Abstract: When it comes to developing web applications, the major concern regards the technologies, which are used to create a rich user experience. Our decision which one to chose str. 2/84 depends on available infrastructure, both client‐ and server‐side, as well as on basic content‐ dependent needs and the know‐how of our human resources.
