Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Ages 11 to 16 years. Most students are familiar with the World Wide Web, but few are familiar with the primary underlying technology that makes it possible: HTML. This book is designed for those who have grown up with computers but who have never had the chance to create their own web sites. Written by a kid for kids, this book leads students step-by-step through the basic functionalities of HTML, all with an inquisitive, friendly tone that encourages experimentation. Each section focuses on a specific project and includes sample computer screens to demonstrate the basic site being developed. Once practiced and learned, the individual projects and lessons are integrated into a single web site that can be 'published' on the web. Also included are more advanced techniques for web page design, including sound, animation, and the uses of Javascript, Java, and Flash, as well as off- and on-line resources for readers to investigate.
