Define compatibility testing and discuss its purpose. ANS: Compatibility testing is done to verify that the Web site works with a variety of browsers and browser versions. Initially, test using the browsers that your audience is most likely to use. Different browsers display some aspects of Web pages differently, so it is important to test Web pages in several different browsers to verify they appear correctly in each browser. If you have used technologies that are not supported by older browsers or that require plug-ins, consider changing the content or providing alternative Web pages for viewing in older browsers. If your audience uses both PC and Macintosh computers, you need to test the Web pages using browsers on both platforms. You also may want to test

the Web pages in several versions of the same browser (usually the two most recent versions), in the event users have not yet upgraded.

8. ANS: C REF: HTML 49 9. ANS: H REF: HTML 78 10. ANS: I REF: HTML 65 14 ESSAY 1. List eight general guidelines for creating a Web page. ANS: Complete Web page planning. Before developing a Web page, you must know the purpose of the Web site, identify the users of the site and their computing environment, and decide who owns the information on the Web page. Analyze the need for the Web page. In the analysis phase of the Web development life cycle, you should analyze what content to include on the Web page. In this phase, you determine the tasks and the information that the users need. Choose the content for the Web page. Once you have completed the analysis, you need to determine what content to include on the Web page. Follow the less is more principle. The less text, the more likely the Web page will be read. Use as few words as possible to make a point. Determine the file naming convention that you will use for this Web page. Before you start creating and saving files, you should decide on a standard way of naming your files. Should you use the .htm or .html extension? You use the .htm extension when the host Web server only allows short file names. You use .html when the host Web server allows long file names. What name should you give your file to indicate the file's content or purpose? For instance, naming a Web page page1.html does not describe what that Web page is; a more descriptive name is helpful in development of the Web site. Determine where to save the Web page. You can store a Web page permanently, or save it, on a variety of storage media including a hard disk, USB flash drive, CD, or DVD. Your instructor or the company for whom you are developing the Web page may have specific storage media requirements. Determine what folder structure to use on your storage device. Once you have determined the storage media to use, you should also determine folder location, structure, and names on which to save the Web page. This should be done before you start to save any of your files. Identify how to format various elements of the Web page. The overall appearance of a Web page significantly affects its ability to communicate clearly. Examples of how you can modify the appearance, or format, of the Web page include adding an image, color to headings, and horizontal rules. Find appropriate graphical images. Eye-catching graphical images help to convey the Web pages overall message and add visual interest. Graphics could show a product, service, result, or benefit, or visually convey a message that is not expressed easily with words. Establish where to position and how to format the graphical images. The position and format of the graphical images should grab the attention of passersby and draw them into reading the Web page. Test the Web page for XHTML compliance. An important part of Web development is testing to assure that your Web page follows XHTML standards. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has an online validator available that allows you to test your Web page and clearly explains any errors that you have. REF: HTML 36 TOP: Critical Thinking 15 2. Detail three formatting suggestions to keep in mind as you identify how to format various elements of the text. ANS: Effectively utilize headings. The main heading is generally the first line of text on the Web page. It conveys the purpose of the Web page. Heading size standards should be followed in the text. The main heading should be size 1, and subtopics or subheadings should be size 2. It is generally not a good idea to jump from one heading size to a heading two sizes smaller. Use default text size when appropriate. The body text consists of all text between the heading and the

bottom of the Web page. This text highlights the key points of the message in as few words as possible. It should be easy to read and follow. While emphasizing the positive, the body text must be realistic, truthful, and believable. The default font size and style is appropriate to use for the body of text. Highlight key paragraphs with bullets. A bullet is a dot or other symbol positioned at the beginning of a paragraph. The bulleted list contains specific information that is more clearly identified by a list versus a paragraph of text. REF: HTML 45 TOP: Critical Thinking 3. Explain why style sheets were created. Include in your response definitions of the following terms: style, style sheet, inline style, embedded style sheet, and external style sheet. ANS: Although HTML allows Web developers to make changes to the structure, design, and content of a Web page, HTML is limited in its ability to define the appearance, or style, across one or more Web pages. As a result, style sheets were created. A style is a rule that defines the appearance of an element on a Web page. A style sheet is a series of rules that defines the style for a Web page or an entire Web site. With a style sheet, you can alter the appearance of a Web page or pages by changing characteristics such as font family, font size, margins, and link specifications. CSS supports three types of style sheets: inline, embedded, and external (or linked). With an inline style, you add a style to an individual HTML tag, such as a heading or paragraph. The style changes that specific tag, but does not affect other tags in the document. With an embedded style sheet, you add the style sheet within the <head> tags of the HTML document to define the style for an entire Web page. With a linked style sheet, or external style sheet, you create a text file that contains all of the styles you want to apply, and save the text file with the file extension .css. You then add a link to this external style sheet on any Web page on the Web site. External style sheets give you the most flexibility and are ideal to apply the same formats to all of the Web pages on a Web site. External style sheets also make it easy to change formats quickly across Web pages. You will use inline styles in this chapters project to enhance the styles of the headings (change the color) and the bulleted list (change the font style).

Discuss in detail two formatting suggestions that will help you call attention to important topics on a Web page without overpowering the page. ANS: Effectively utilize graphics. An important part of Web development is the use of graphics to call attention to a Web page. Generally, companies utilize the same logo on their Web site as they use on print material associated with the company, such as business cards and letterheads. Using the same graphical image on all marketing materials, including the Web site, is a good way to provide a consistent visual and brand message to customers. Utilize headings that connect to the graphics. In many cases, companies use the logo banner as the main heading on their home page, as opposed to using an <h1> heading. It is sometimes good to coordinate the color of the headings and graphics contained on the Web page to the logo banner. This can bring attention to the company logo banner, and it makes the Web page look cohesive with coordinating colors. Heading size standards should generally be followed from h1 (the largest) to h6 (the smallest). PTS: 1 REF: HTML 102 TOP: Critical Thinking 2. Discuss the following statement in detail: Planning how and where to use the four types of links is an important part of Web page design. ANS: Identify how to link from the home page to another page in the same Web site. Linking to another Web page in the same Web site is often done with text links. When determining what words to use, make sure that the text links are clear and easy to understand. Using a phrase such as click here is not one that clearly identifies where the link will go. Choosing words such as green home tells the Web site visitor to click that link if they want to see a sample of a green home. Use an e-mail link on the home page. A good standard practice is to include an e-mail link on the home page. Again, using words such as click here are not as effective as using a companys actual e-mail address as the e-mail link text. Determine external links for the home page. Visitors to a Web site might want additional information on a topic, so a link also can be included on the home page. Linking to an external Web site (i.e., one that is outside of the boundaries of the current Web site) is appropriate to provide additional information. Again, it is important to select words or phrases that make sense for that link. Use internal links on long Web pages. Another good standard practice is to include links within a Web page when the page is long (i.e., when you have to press the PAGE DOWN key several times to get to the end of the Web page). Internal links help visitors navigate more easily within long Web pages. Also consider using links to help the visitor easily return back to the top of a long Web page.

PTS: 1 REF: HTML 107 TOP: Critical Thinking 15 3. Explain how to define unique styles for normal, visited, and active links. Also include an explanation of the hover pseudo-class, including a definition and the general syntax of a pseudo-class in your response. ANS: You also can define a unique style for normal, visited, and active links by creating three separate style statements with a:link, a:visited, and a:active as the selectors. The last style statement uses the a:hover selector to define the style of a link when the mouse pointer points to, or hovers over, a link. In this statement, you use a pseudo-class (hover) to have more control over the anchor (link) element. A pseudo-class is attached to a selector with a colon to specify a state or relation to the selector to give the Web developer more control over that selector. The format to use with a pseudo-class is entered in the form: selector:pseudo-class { property: value; } with a colon between the selector and the pseudo-class. There are four pseudo-classes that can be used when applied to the anchor or link selector: link, for an unvisited link visited, for a link to a page that has already been visited active, for a link when it gains focus (for example, when it is clicked) hover, for a link when the cursor is held over it.

Explain what an external style sheet is and what its major benefit is. ANS: An external style sheet is a text file that contains the selectors and declarations for the styles you want to apply across the Web site. External style sheets are the most comprehensive type of style sheet and can be used to control the consistency and look of many Web pages within a Web site. Adding an external style sheet to a Web page involves a two-step process of creating an external style sheet and then linking this style sheet to the desired Web pages. The most beneficial feature of the external style sheet is that you can easily change the style (appearance) of all Web pages into which the style sheet is linked just by changing the external style sheet. For instance, take a style that goes across all the Web pages in a Web site and assuming that style is found in an external style sheet. If the owners of the Web site decide that they do not like the look (or style) of that font-family or font-size, you only have to make the change in one file the external style sheet. Compare that process to having the font-family and font-size inserted into every single Web page in a Web site either with embedded style sheets or (worst case) inline styles. To make a change to all font-family and font-size styles, you would have to change those in every single

place that those styles reside. External (linked) style sheets are the most efficient and powerful way to change styles for an entire Web site. PTS: 1 REF: HTML 178 TOP: Critical Thinking 3. How do you determine if a caption is needed for a table? ANS: A caption can help clarify the tables purpose. For some tables, such as a table used to position images or a table used to create menu bars, captions are not appropriate. Tables used to structure columns and rows of information can benefit from having a caption to clarify or add information about the contents of the table. The caption tag must be inserted directly after the <table> tag.

ANS: One advantage of server-side image mapping is that most, if not all, browsers support server-side image maps, while some older browsers do not support client-side image maps. Server-side image maps have disadvantages, however. They require additional software to be running on the Web server. That would then require that the server administrator maintain and update that server software on a regular basis. Also, an image map available on a particular Web site's server must be registered to the server before it can be used. Although this process is simple, it must be done. Further, all changes to that registered image map must be coordinated on the Web server, which does not allow for quick updates. Client-side image maps help reduce the load on the Web server, generally download faster, and provide faster response when a user clicks a link. PTS: 1 REF: HTML 242-HTML 243 TOP: Critical Thinking 14 2. Describe in detail the steps in the process of creating a client-side image map. ANS: First, select an image to use as an image map. Not all images are appropriate for good image mapping. Those images without distinct boundaries are not easy to map. Besides causing difficulty to the Web developer to find the points to plot, non-distinct areas make it difficult for visitors to see where one link might end and another begins. When choosing an image to map, choose wisely. Next, sketch in the hotspots on the image. It is sometimes good to print a copy of the image and draw the hotspot areas on top of the paper image. You can then take that hard copy and review it while working with the image in the image editing software. When sketching (either on paper or in the software), determine what shapes (i.e., circle, rectangle, or polygon) make sense for the specific area that you want to link. Based on this determination, start the next step of plotting those areas on the image. Then, map the image coordinates for each hotspot. One thing to consider is making sure that the linkable areas do not run over one another. This overrun ends up confusing your Web site visitors because they

think they will link to one area, and the coordinates take them somewhere else. Finally, create the HTML code for the image map. When you create an image map, you first insert the image itself and then identify the name of the map that you use later in the HTML code. Further down in the code, you actually use that name and identify the map areas that form the boundaries around the hotspot. PTS: 1 REF: HTML 243 TOP: Critical Thinking 3. Discuss the steps to determine the x- and y-coordinates for image map points using a chosen software tool. ANS: Select a software tool. Computers running the Windows operating system already have an image editing tool available, Paint. Other editing software products include Mapedit, CoffeeCup Image Mapper, and Imaptool. Next, edit the image. It is sometimes necessary to alter the image before using it on the Web page (you may want to resize it or reposition it). Finally, make any other changes to the image. In Paint, you can make other changes to the image such as flipping the image horizontally or vertically, or altering the colors of the image. Other graphic editing software provides a variety of tools to alter an image slightly or significantly.

Explain in detail the difference between the action and method attributes of the <form> tag. Be sure to include a definition of CGI script, and the get and post method in your explanation. ANS: The action attribute of the <form> tag specifies the action that is taken when the form is submitted. Information entered in forms can be sent by e-mail to an e-mail address or can be used to update a database. Although the e-mail option is functional, many Web sites process information from forms using Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting. A CGI script is a program written in a programming language (such as PHP or Perl) that communicates with the Web server. The CGI script sends the information input on the Web page form to the server for processing. The method attribute of the <form> tag specifies the manner in which the data entered in the form is sent to the server to be processed. Two primary ways are used in HTML: the get method and the post method. The get method sends the name-value pairs to the end of the URL indicated in the action attribute. The post method sends a separate data file with the name-value pairs to the URL (or e-mail address) indicated in the action attribute. Most Web developers prefer the post method because it is much more flexible. You need to be cautious when using the get method. Some Web servers limit a URLs size, so you run the risk of truncating relevant information when using the get method. PTS: 1 REF: HTML 296 TOP: Critical Thinking 15

3. Describe in detail the four steps involved in creating an effective form. ANS: Before creating a Web page form, you should plan how you want to format it. By effectively utilizing input controls, you can call attention to important data-collection areas on the Web page without overpowering it. Creating an effective form includes: 1. Determine what data to collect. In the case of a form designed to sell a product, you need the visitors name and address information. Make sure to provide enough space for each field so that you do not cut out important information. For instance, an address field only 10 characters long may cut out much of the street name. 2. Determine what types of control to use. For data such as name and address, you need text input areas. For data such as credit card type, there is a limited subset (i.e., American Express, Visa, and MasterCard), so a selection control is appropriate. When you ask what types of pizza the visitor is interested in buying, you can use check boxes, which allow multiple selection. In the case of an answer with only two choices (i.e., Yes/No or Thick or thin pizza?), a radio button is more appropriate. 3. Lay out the input areas effectively. One of the first input items you may want is the visitors name and address information. That should go to the top of the page. Also, you can group information together on the same line if it makes sense to make the Web page form short enough that visitors do not have to scroll much. 4. Use grouping techniques for clarity. The last thing that you may want to do on a Web page form is group like input items together. Use the fieldset tag to segregate personal information from order information and from other comments that the visitor might make.
