Résumé

Web Design in a Nutshell, Second Edition contains the nitty-gritty on everything you need to know to design web pages. It's the good stuff, without the fluff, written and organized so that answers can be found quickly. This completely revised and expanded second edition is chock-full of information about the wide range of front-end technologies and techniques from which web designers and authors must draw.

Web Design in a Nutshell, Second Edition is an excellent reference for HTML 4.01 tags (including tables, frames, forms, color, and cascading style sheets) with special attention given to browser support, platform idiosyncracies, and standards. You'll also find lots of updated information on using graphics, multimedia, audio and video, and advanced technologies such Dynamic HTML, Javascript, and XML, as well as new chapters on XHTML, WML, and SMIL. This book is an indispensible tool for web designers and authors of all levels.

  • Discussions of the web environment including monitors and browsers, printing from the Web, accessibility, and internationalization
  • A complete reference to HTML and Server Side Includes, including up-to-date browser support (Netscape 6, IE 5.5, and Opera 5) for every tag and attribute
