Writing Cross-Browser Dynamic HTML

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Divided into three sections, the book first treats in detail the technologies, concepts, and standards needed to use dynamic HTML for users running all the popular late model browsers: version 4.0 and higher. This section also discusses the implementation and development of HTML, cascading style sheets, competing models of the DOM, and the JavaScript/JScript/ECMAScript techniques needed to control it. The second section teaches Web designers how to use DHTML to develop a dynamic site, focusing on implementation issues related to maintaining cross-platform compatibility. A tutorial in this section shows readers how to create a completely interactive Web site, ready to post on the Web. The third and final section provides alternate ways to use functions and features similar to those used in the second section.

How can Dynamic HTML be used effectively, given the issue of incompatible browsers among users? Williamson focuses on the answers without betting sidetracked into general HTML or XML issues. The result is a book that clearly and concisely addresses programmers'needs without overwhelming them with a cumbersom volume that tries to answer every possible question about DHTML. Writing Cross-Browser Dynamic HTML begins by introducing the fundamental concepts upon which DHTML programming is based: the Document Object Model, Cascading Style Sheets and scripting languages. In each case, the differences between the Netscape and Microsoft implementation of these features are discussed. You'll learn which features can be used safely, which must be avoided and how to use scripting languages to overcome differences between DHTML implementations. The author then moves into an in-depth discussion of real-world applications on a highly interactive professional Web site. Williamson finshes the book by going beyond the purely technical issues to discuss how compatibility must be incorporated in the development process, especially when teams of developers are involved.
