  • 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.

  • LEARNING HTML5 and CSS 1. What Is HTML? Ans: HTML Has Been Derived from SGML, Which Stands for Standard General Markup Language
    LEARNING HTML5 AND CSS 1. What is HTML? Ans: HTML has been derived from SGML, which stands for standard general markup language. HTML was created to allow those users who were not specialized in using SGML to create web pages. 2. What are tags in HTML? Ans: An HTML tag begin with a ‘less than’ symbol(<) and ends with a ‘greater than’ symbol(>). These symbols are also called angle brackets. Syntax:<html> text </html> Start tag End tag The part --<html>is called the opening tag, while the part--- </html> is called the closing tag. The closing tag is same as the opening tag except that it has forward slash before its name. 3. What is the difference between the <body>and <head>tags? Ans: The HEAD section contains the title and the other information about the HTML document. The BODY section contains all the information that is displayed on a web page. 4. How are attributes defined? Ans: An attribute provides additional information about an element. Attributes are usually defined its name-value pairs. The name is the property of the tag that you want to set, while the value is the value of the property to be set. <p align = “left”>This text is left aligned </p> The <p> tag, also knows as the paragraph tag, is used to define a paragraph. Now we can use the attribute align with it to set the alignment of the paragraph. Also, there are three possible values of the align attribute—left, right, and center. 5.Define HTML. What is its use? Ans: HTML stands for hypertext markup language.

  • Annotea: an Open RDF Infrastructure for Shared Web Annotations
    Proceedings of the WWW 10th International Conference, Hong Kong, May 2001. Annotea: An Open RDF Infrastructure for Shared Web Annotations Jos´eKahan,1 Marja-Riitta Koivunen,2 Eric Prud’Hommeaux2 and Ralph R. Swick2 1 W3C INRIA Rhone-Alpes 2 W3C MIT Laboratory for Computer Science {kahan, marja, eric, swick}@w3.org Abstract. Annotea is a Web-based shared annotation system based on a general-purpose open RDF infrastructure, where annotations are modeled as a class of metadata.Annotations are viewed as statements made by an author about a Web doc- ument. Annotations are external to the documents and can be stored in one or more annotation servers.One of the goals of this project has been to re-use as much existing W3C technol- ogy as possible. We have reacheditmostlybycombining RDF with XPointer, XLink, and HTTP. We have also implemented an instance of our system using the Amaya editor/browser and ageneric RDF database, accessible through an Apache HTTP server. In this implementation, the merging of annotations with documents takes place within the client. The paper presents the overall design of Annotea and describes some of the issues we have faced and how we have solved them. 1Introduction One of the basic milestones in the road to a Semantic Web [22] is the as- sociation of metadata to content. Metadata allows the Web to describe properties about some given content, even if the medium of this content does not directly provide the necessary means to do so. For example, ametadata schema for digital photos [15] allows the Web to describe, among other properties, the camera model used to take a photo, shut- ter speed, date, and location.

  • 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.

  • 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.
