Week One Task One

There are a few different terms used by web designers. My first Task will be to mention a few and give a brief definition of each in my own words.

HTML - This is the most common used language used in the programming of websites. It has different standards and rules and if people conform to these rules then most websites will be viewable in most browsers.

JavaScript - JavaScript is a simple programming language used to make web pages more interactive.

PHP - This is another programming language but is used in order to access databases located on webservers.

Web Authoring Software - This is very handy as software programs allow you to create webpages without the hasstle of needing to know all the scripting language behind it all. It is definitely the user friendly way of creating websites.

Image Manipulation Software - Tools such as firework allow you to edit pictures to make them more eye catching.

Dynamic Webpage - A dynamic webpage is a webpage that is customized for each viewer so it depends on who you are what kind of information will actually be displayed to u.

Web 2.0 - this is a term usually used in association with the most modern websites that allow you to share and interact with other peoples websites an example would be social networking this is possible due to web 2.0 technology.

Web Accessibility - this is just the method of making sure your website is usable to people with all different abilities or disabilities.
