2 The New Perspectives Series' critical-thinking, problem-solving approach is the ideal way to prepare students to transcend point-and-click skills and take advantage of all that the World Wide Web has to offer. Our goal in developing the New Perspectives Series was to create books that give students the software concepts and practical skills they need to succeed beyond the classroom. With this new edition, we've updated our proven case-based pedagogy with more practical content to make learning skills more meaningful to students. With the New Perspectives Series, students understand why they are learning what they are learning, and are fully prepared to apply their skills to real-life situations. "This text is filled with excellent explanations and activities. My st~ldents vary in their abilities, and this text covers exactly what they need in a logical, incremental fashion. It's a great reference book that students will find ~~sefui for years. " -Kenneth Wade Champlain College About This Book This book provides complete coverage of HTML and XHTML, and includes the following: Up-to-date coverage of using HTML ancl XHTML to create and design Web sites Instruction on CSS design styles and positioning styles, resolving browser conflicts, using CSS with printed media and mobile output devices, and HTML tables and CSS table-related styles Expanded and in-depth coverage of creating Web forms and using frames, creating and validating well-formed XHTML documents, working with multimedia Web sites, and integrating simple JavaScript applications with Web site design Reinforcement of code compliance with strict applications of HTML and XHTML and compliance with Section 508 accessibility guidelines Web demos, which give students an interactive approach to HTML topics An Online Companion, which provides supplemental information related to the content of each tutorial as well as access to the student data files Updated business case scenarios throughout, which provide a rich and realistic context for students to apply the concepts and skills presented System Requirements This book assumes that students have an Internet connection, a text editor, and a current Web browser that supports HTML 4.0 and XHTML 1.I standards. The following is a list of the most recent versions of the major browsers at the time this text was published: Windows-Firefox 2.0, lnternet Explorer 7.0, Opera 9.25, and Safari 3.0; Macintosh-Safari 3.0. All Web browsers interpret HTML and CSS code in slightly different ways. It is highly recommend that students have several different browsers installed on their systems, for comparison purposes. Students might also want to run older versions of these browsers to highlight compatibility issues, but the code in this book is designed to support those browser versions. The screenshots in this book were produced using lnternet Explorer 7.0 running on Windows Vista, unless otherwise noted. If students are using a different browser or operating system, their screens will vary slightly from those shown in the book; this does not present any problems for students in completing the tutorials.
