Presentation transcript:

What is Web Design?  Web design is the creation of a Web page using hypertext or hypermedia to be viewed on the World Wide Web.

History  1969 – Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) corporation created ARPANET, which allowed users to share computers and exchange data over great distances.  1973 – ARPANET goes international.  1989 – Tim Berners-Lee creates the World Wide Web.  1991 – Tim Berners-Lee creates the first Web browsers.  1995 – CompuServe, American Online (AOL), and Prodigy provide Internet access to the general public.  Early 20’s – Broadband Internet access became widely available.

Uses of Web Design  Commercial (marketing products)  Entertainment (movies, music videos, plays, sports)  Informational/Educational  News  Public Service Announcements (PSAs)

Programming Languages  HTML  HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language.  HTML was the first markup language that allowed users to create documents for the Web.  XML  XML stands for Extensible Markup Language.  XML is a markup language used to create new Internet languages and is used for communicating data between applications.

Programming Languages  XHTML  XHTML stands for Extensible Hyper Text Markup Language. I  t is derived from HTML and XML code.  XHTML is the current standard markup language for designing Web pages.  The one main difference between HTML and XHTML is that HTML tags do not have to be closed but XHTML tags must always be closed.

Programming Languages  JavaScript  A more simplistic programming language to be used for enhanced user interfaces and dynamic Websites.  Used as a client-side Web development scripting language allowing for requests to be processed on the user’s machine rather than on the website’s server.  This can be faster, uses less bandwidth, and may be more secure.

Programming Languages  PHP  Hypertext Preprocessor (originally called Personal Home Page).  Used for creating dynamic and interactive websites.  Connects an HTML page with a database.  PHP is a server-side Web development scripting language.  Server-side scripting allows for requests to be processed on the Web server to generate interactive Web sites.  Open source software, meaning it is free to download and use.

Programming Languages  CSS  Cascading Style Sheets.  CSS separates the presentation (look and formatting) of a page from its content.  CSS allows a Web designer to define a common layout that can be used any number of the site’s pages by simply referencing the CSS file.  Makes it easier to modify design elements like fonts, colors or even layouts for the entire website by modifying a single file instead of having to edit every single page.

Programming Languages  Flash  Flash is capable of combining vector or bitmap images and including video or animation for the Web.  Flash creates advanced interactivity on the Web.  Flash is used to create Websites, games, and advertisements.

Web Browsers  Microsoft Internet Explorer  Created by Microsoft. For many years  The most widely used Web browser.  Note: The W3C, which maintains the standards for building websites, has a page listing current browser use statistics. You can find it at: s_stats.asp

Web Browsers  Mozilla Firefox  Created by Mozilla Corporation. It is a free and open source  Web browser and its use has expanded rapidly in recent years.

Web Browsers  Apple Safari  Safari was created by Apple.  It is the default browser for Apple computers.

Web Browsers  Opera  Created by Opera Software Company.  Only commercial Web browser for Nintendo Wii and DS gaming systems  Popular browser for use with many mobile devices.

Web Browsers  Google Chrome  was created by Google Incorporated  Noted for its  simplistic interface,  enhanced JavaScript engine  Improved Web security features

Web Browsing  Mobile Platforms  Web browsers capable of running on hand-held mobile devices  Smartphones  gaming devices  PDAs

Web Design Features  Navigation system  consistently places links that allow the site users to easily access documents and Web pages (external and internal) as well as target links within the same Web page.  Navigation system should  assure that the end user would know what is offered on the site  can find what they are looking for  can easily move within the site.

Web Design Features  GUI stands for Graphical User Interface.  A GUI product allows computer interaction without the use of code.  Example: When a file is moved by dragging it from one location to another, the GUI triggers the commands necessary for the file to be relocated.  There are many GUI applications for designers such as InDesign and Dreamweaver.

Web Design Features  WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get)  Graphical User Interface  A WYSIWYG editing program is often referred to as a visual editor.  Visual editors allow the user to design and manipulate a website without using programming code.  The user interacts with a site that looks as it should appear to the end user.  Even when using a WYSIWYG editor, the outcome can change based on the end user’s browser, display or operating system.

Web Design Features  Hyperlinks  are commonly referred to as links.  They connect a webpage to documents, Web pages or locations.  External links direct the user to different websites.  Internal links direct the user to documents or Web pages within the same website.  Target links direct the user to content within the same page.  Links should assist the user in easily finding what the website has to offer.

Web Design Features  Page Layout  Web page layouts usually consist of either tables or layers.  Table tags create a gridded structure in which content can be placed.  The use of layers allows content to be placed anywhere on a Web page.  Multiple layers can be placed on a single page (above, below, nested).  Due to flexibility and compliance issues, Web pages are moving more toward the use of layers.

Web Design Features  Rollover  Refers to a Web design feature that allows the end user to see or hear a change in the image, text or sound of a button or link.  Usually, once a cursor is moved from the link, the image returns to the previous state.

Web Design Features  Image Map  Allow multiple hyperlinks to a single graphic. Image maps are often used in geographic websites.  Example: U.S. map linking to each state’s information.  One of the benefits of using an image map is that one image can load quicker than multiples.  Negative aspect is that the user cannot interact with the hyperlinks until the entire image is displayed.

Web Design Features  Webform  Allow the end user to interact with a site. Entered data is sent to a server site and processed.  Webforms can also be used to query data on a website.  Examples: surveys, subscriptions and billing/shipping information.  Services are not available that allow a person or company, without webform expertise, to create forms and collect data through a secure site.
