 World Wide Web FAQ

Remember, the WWW is located all over the world. Many Web pages contain images, which have to be loaded in your computer's memory before you can view them. This process usually takes some time.

 HTML Help by The Web Design Group

The Web Design Group was founded to promote the creation of non-browser specific, non-resolution specific, creative and informative sites that are accessible to all users worldwide. To this end, the WDG offers material on a wide range of HTML related topics. We hope that with this site as a reference, you will be able to create Web sites that can be used by every person on the Internet, regardless of browser, platform, or settings.

 Dynamic HTML Lab

Today Dynamic HTML refers to technologies that allow documents to be changed after their initial display, without server access, through user interaction and client-side scripting. Page elements can be displayed selectively, then modified, moved or replaced. This ability to move and replace objects allows for the animation of text and graphics. In turn, selective display and replacement can be used for database record retrieval. Personal home pages as well as complex business applications can make use of the technology. Pages look and feel like native operating system applications, and all without straining bandwidth and server links.

Never underestimate the power of underestimation -- the easy things in life are clearly the most challenging. Web development in the real world is often a far cry from the 1-2-3 sing song of tutorials. Outside the ivory tower of the tutorial reality becomes quite a bit more slippery, especially when confounded by client wishes and development environment constraints (a.k.a. "browser bugs"). Here we follow along in the development journey of a Dynamic HTML technique for a client -- namely, pop-up menus -- as a microcosm of the pain, woe, and triumph of birthing an idea from "sure that sounds easy" to actual implementation.
