Web Standards

This book teaches the standards and technologies necessary to achieve that desired result.

Packed with examples for learning each of these standard technologies and followed by detailed references to each language, this book provides a total package for moving your web publishing to current standards–based coding.

  • Using CSS to select and format text, margins, colors, and other elements and position them on the page
  • Applying JavaScript for client–side scripting and dynamic content delivery
  • Using server scripts and CGI with the popular Perl and Python languages
  • Publishing rich, dynamic content using the PHP scripting language
  • The importance of following web standards to ensure compatibility with as many user agents as possible, including Internet Explorer, the increasingly important and popular Firefox, and the latest crop of mobile platforms
  • How to avoid browser–specific code and deprecated tags and attributes that cause your documents to be unusable for many users

5.0 out of 5 stars All you need to know about HTML ... and other things!, 30 Oct 2009
By Mr. David C. R. Hancock (U,K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After checking out many HTML books via the Library Service, finally settled on this wonderful book - and bought it!
Written in a beautifully concise style, it avoids the plonking, patronising tone that many books in this field adopt.
Recommended!
