This book covers the entire process of building a website. This process
involves much more than just technical knowledge, and this book provides
you with all the information you'll need to understand the concepts
behind designing and developing for the Web, as well as the best means
to deliver professional, best-practice-based results. There is far more
to building a successful website than knowing a little Hypertext Markup
Language (HTML). The process starts long before any coding takes place,
and this book introduces you to the agile development process,
explaining why this method makes so much sense for web projects and how
best to implement it. Planning is vital, so you'll also learn how to use
techniques such as brainstorming, wireframes, mockups, and prototypes to
get your project off to the best possible start and help ensure smooth
progress as it develops. An understanding of correct, semantic markup is
essential to any web professional, so this book explains how XHTML
should be used to structure content so that the markup adheres to
current web standards. You'll learn about the wide range of HTML
elements available to you, and you'll learn how and when to use them
through building example web pages. Without creative use of Cascading
Style Sheets (CSS), websites would all look largely the same. CSS gives
you the ability to set your website apart from the rest while
maintaining the integrity of your markup. You'll learn how CSS works and
how to apply styles to your pages, enabling you to realize your design
ideas in the browser. JavaScript can be used to make your website easier
and more interesting to use. This book provides information on
appropriate uses of this technology and introduces the concepts of
programming using it. You'll also see how JavaScript works as part of
the much-hyped technique Ajax and in turn where Ajax fits into the wider
Web 2.0 picture. While a website is being built, it needs to be tested
across multiple browsers and platforms to ensure that the site works for
all users, regardless of ability or disability, and the book explains
how best to do these tasks. Then, it discusses the process of launching
and maintaining the site so that it will continue to work for all its
users throughout its life-cycle. The book concludes by covering
server-side technologies, acting as a guide to the different options
available and explaining differences between available products. With
insights from renowned experts such as Jason Fried of 37signals, Daniel
Burka of Digg and Pownce, and Chris Messina of Citizen Agency,
Foundation Website Creation provides invaluable information applicable
to every web project, regardless of size, scope, or budget.
