Simply the best introduction to all aspects of the design and
development of successful Web sites.
As the World Wide Web has matured, the need for high quality
education in all aspects of Web design has become widely
acknowledged. This book is a core text for undergraduate and
masters courses that provides a complete introduction to every
aspect of the building of Web pages and Web sites. A complete
understanding of the basics of all aspects of Web design is
essential to the development of good practice.
Starting from a review of Web experiences, the text provides a
deep and thorough introduction to Web technology, markup,
stylesheets, Web graphics, Web animation and embedded video,
client-side scripting, Web applications, usability, accessibility,
page design and site design. At all times, the focus remains on
good practice, underpinned by sound principles, in the context of
the real World Wide Web. Full coverage of the essential
technologies is provided: HTTP, XHTML, CSS, Javascript and the DOM,
and the use of Web Standards is emphasized throughout as an
essential part of the authors' forward-looking approach. Some
elementary programming knowledge is required for use of this
text.
Suitable for course use or self-study, this comprehensive
introduction represents a complete overview of the practice of Web
design, providing clear summaries and a wealth of exercises and
short practical assignments, as well as a valuable survey of the
most popular software tools used in Web design. An extensive
glossary and a wide rage of other supplementary material are
provided on the supporting Web site.
Also by Nigel and Jenny Chapman: "Digital Multimedia, 2e"
(0-470-85890-7) is a coretext for undergraduate and masters courses
in multimedia. It combines a broad and deep account of technology
with an inside understanding of multimedia content and its
practical applications. Coverage begins with the nature of
multimedia, including the cultural and social context, before
examining hardware and software requirements for its creation and
delivery. There are chapters devoted to each media type, detailing
how it is represented in digital form and what demands are placed
on computer systems. Later chapters cover design principles and
accessibility, XML and its applications to multimedia, creating
interaction through scripting and networking media. There are
end-of-chapter exercises as well as detailed suggestions for
substantial projects.
