XHTML 1.0 Web Development Sourcebook: Building Better Sites and Applications - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

XHTML is a powerful new tool for creating Web sites that can be viewed from devices other than the PC, such as Television and palm-top computers and mobile telephones. XHTML - the new generation of HTML - gives Web authors a powerful and flexible tool for creating sites that can be viewed from more environments than a PC desktop by reworking HTML as a suite of XML tag sets. These tag sets save time, effort, and money by enabling XHTML authors to mark up a much wider range of information. For example, new forms allow database and workflow applications to be re-purposed for different devices. XHTML 1.0 also makes it possible for data in tables to be presented in different ways. Transformation tools, such as style sheets, scripts, and programs offer greater flexibility to be presented on different devices. Another important feature of XHTML is that it remedies the problem of having the same document look different on different browsers. XHTML establishes conformance profiles, which specify information such as exactly which HTML tags a given device will support This second volume of Ian Graham's coverage of XHTML is geared toward experienced Web professionals who need to understand the new XHTML specification. He introduces readers to all of XHTML's powerful new features, and uses examples to show how XHTML works with existing Web technologies, such as HTTP and CGI. He then describes various techniques for taking full advantage of XHTML to create richer, more powerful sites and Internet applications.
