WEB DESIGN BASICS When we speak of a website in fact we are referring to a set of files can be text, audio, graphics, etc.., Which is connected by a markup language called HTML. This language allows us to create so-called web pages, which are just files with the extension htm or html. They are hosted on web servers, which are specially adapted computers, and are permanently connected to the Internet. The advantage of HTML is that leaves have several files simultaneously (along with a video text, graphics in the form of buttons, etc..) And also has the ability to create links or hyperlinks (hyperlinks in English) which are responsible for connecting web pages to each other. This means we can "jump" from a U.S. based website to one that is in Spain or Japan immediately, making geographic distances disappear in the network. To access the website using a browser, which is the software responsible for presenting this information in a friendly way. ~ - Website: fileset ~ - Website: file in HTML or HTM ~ - Hyperlink: An object that is used to link files (Web pages, images, audio, etc.). ~ - Web Server: Internet-connected computer that hosts Web sites or files that can be requested through the network Web Programming hghhh With the development of new Web programming languages emerged designed to present pages that allow greater interaction, they move faster contain animations, etc.
Among them we mention the asp and php, which broadly can generate pages based on requests from users of the site, ie searching in a database the information requested, and create a page instantly. The databases used are http://www.mysql.com/ MySQL (open source), http://www.oracle.com/ Oracle http://www-3.ibm.com/software/data / informix Informix, IBM, and Microsoft SQL http://www.microsoft.com/sql/default.asp. The DHTML (Dynamic HTML) and CSS (style sheets) are used to make HTML pages more interactive, eg. buttons that change color, enlarge or decrease text size, etc..; allies to JavaScript, can also put the time and date the page, scrolling text display, and more. Software that is being used much on the web to make animations with audio, text, images, etc.., Is the http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash Macromedia Flash, and in their latest version has tools that make it relatively easy to create a web presentation. The Java language instead creates executable files that are installed on the surfer's computer and used for animation or to create small programs (calculators, games, etc.).. Although it is clear that increasingly is being used less. ~ - ASP / PHP formats for dynamic web pages ~ - Databases: MySQL, Oracle, Informix, and Microsoft SQL ~ - DHTML / CSS HTML dynamic languages ~ - Javascript: programming language ~ - Flash: Software used to make animations ~ - Java programming language
Weight of the pages and image format The weight of the pages should not exceed 50 Kb, that yet is because Internet connections are slow, and there are studies in the U.S. showing that users often do not wait longer than 30 seconds to see information on a page. This topic is fundamental image processing, ie it is often possible to put the same weight to fall substantially, keeping all forms of acceptable quality. The editing software, digital images are ready to optimize images to mount anywhere. ~ - Weight of the pages ~ - Image Format Consistency It is necessary to make the website get consistency and a distinctive image, using backgrounds, graphics and logos, uniform colors in the text and links, navigation bars at the same location, etc.., In the same way that a department store has a unique aesthetic, both for its headquarters and their branches. ~ - Fund and distinctive graphics ~ - Color text and links ~ - Navigation bars at the same place
