An introduction to Web design and programming
Paul S. Wang, Sanda S. Katila - Collection Brooks/Cole
Résumé
Combining viewpoints from a Department of Computer Science (Paul Wang) and a School of Visual Communication Design (Sanda Katila), this innovative book covers the design and technology aspects of Web site development in an integrated manner. The balanced perspective leads to an understanding of the artistic design, visual communication, information architecture, computer science, and programming needed to begin mastering the Web. While focusing on the art and technology of Web site creation, the authors emphasize theoretical understanding and developmental techniques.
Benefits:
- Integrated Approach: The authors integrate technology with artistic design to achieve effective and attractive Web design.
- Web Technologies: This text focuses on a set of Web technologies, including HTTP, XHTML, CSS, Javascript, DHTML, DOM, and CGI. The book will be 100 percent XHTML, the new HTML standard, with all examples passing W3C XHTML validation.
- Design Concepts: The authors present concepts and principles of information architecture, visual communication design, layout, use of colors and fonts, positive and negative space, visual hierarchy, symmetry, balance, unity, and variation. Eight pages of color plates are included.
- Web Site Development: The book provides an overview of the Web and Internet, the Web site development process, and the technologies, techniques, and tasks involved. Then, different topics are presented in a logical sequence following the Web development process.
- Web Site: The accompanying Web site offers reference listings, useful resources, a complete "Web Development Team Project Guide" for instructors and student teams alike, online versions of the figures (in full size and color), ready-to-run examples cross-referenced to in-text descriptions, hands-on experiments to enhance learning, and an example package ready to download.
