Description:
HTML 4.0 CD with JavaScript for Windows 95, 98, and NT is a Web-page designer's companion that discusses advanced HTML features such as multimedia, cascading style sheets (CSS), and Java applets. Author Vivian Neou begins with an introduction to HTML that presents the basic structure of HTML documents. Then she dives into the particulars with a discussion of basic body elements, lists, hyperlinks, tables, and frames. HTML tags and attributes are frequently summarized in shaded tables throughout the book for easy reference. The subsequent chapters discuss how to embed graphics, work with multimedia elements, and interact with users via forms in your Web pages. The book eventually moves into advanced and powerful topics such as cookies and CSS--constructs that help deliver a sophisticated and highly customized look and feel to your Web sites. The author then introduces scripting and features a series of five complete JavaScript examples to illustrate some common approaches. The bundled CD-ROM includes a number of utility programs, including an HTML editor, an image-map builder, tools for animating GIF images, and Perl for server-side Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting. This title is a solid desktop tool for any Web-page creator. --Stephen Plain
