For courses in Web-based Systems [DU1] (aka Web/Internet Programming/Systems) in Computer Science, MIS, and IT departments. This text introduces the key technologies that have been developed as part of the birth and maturation of the World Wide Web. It provides a consistent, in-depth treatment of technologies that are unlikely to receive detailed coverage in non-Web computer science courses. Students will find an ongoing case study that integrates a wide spectrum of Web technologies, guidance on setting up their own software environments, and a variety of exercises and project assignments. * Standards-first approach in both text and exercises - Encourages students to develop standards-compliant software.- Helps students understand material that will be relevant and more useful in their careers. - Formal standards followed include XHTML 1.0, CSS 2, ECMAScript Edition 3, DOM Level 2, XML 1.0, XPath 1.0, XSLT 1.0, and XML Schema 1.0. * Java-based representatives - Chosen to detail Web capabilities that can be provided by several competing technologies, enabling students to focus on the concepts rather than on learning new languages. * Related Technologies sections - Found in chapters covering a single representative of related technologies.- Informs students about other popular technologies within the class. - Helps students understand how to transfer their skills across [DU1] different technologies, giving them flexibility in their future careers. * All software used in examples and needed for exercises and projects is available via free download for multiple platforms - Enables students to run examples and develop assignments on their own machines rather than in a lab. * Web Services coverage includes several technologies such as SOAP, WSDL, and Java-based development tools that are likely to increase in importance in coming years. * End-of-chapter "My Own Blog" case study sections - Shows how the material covered relates to the ongoing development of a web log (blogging) application. * Multiple types of exercises in each chapter - Includes exercises, research/exploration problems, and projects. * Numerous examples illustrate nearly every concept covered - Examples are often small, illustrating a single concept, with larger examples provided as needed to demonstrate how concepts can be integrated and/or to provide motivation. * End-of-chapter online references to primary source material - All freely available on the Web for further study or research assignments.
