Every Internet and intranet developer needs to understand four core technologies: HTML, Java, CGI and JavaScript. Now, you can learn them all in one book: Core Web Programming, the ultimate Web development resource for experienced programmers! HTML 3.2: Extraordinary practical coverage cuts through the complexity to show how HTML is really used-from the fundamentals to frames, cascading style sheets, layered HTML, and new features. Java: Ten super-efficient chapters teach experienced programmers all they need to write great Java programs. Start with the basics of Java syntax and object-oriented programming. Then take an in-depth look at the AWT-including the new event model and every 1.0 and 1.1 component. Youll even learn advanced multi-threading and client/server techniques! CGI: Connect your Web pages to databases or other programs on your corporate server. Detailed coverage of both the client and server sides of the process! JavaScript: Discover scripting techniques you can use right now to add dynamic capabilities to your Web pages-the quick, easy way! * Coverage of versions 1.2, 1.2, and 1.0, plus portability tips. * Core Web Programming delivers the Internet and intranet development skills you need right now! * All the HTML, Java, CGI and JavaScript features you need most: * HTML 3.2 * The latest HTML extensions * Java 1.1 and 1.0 * Detailed coverage of the Java AWT * Multi-threaded and network programming * CGI programming and server-side Java * JavaScript 1.2 and 1.1 Plus an extensive Windows 95/NT and Macintosh CD-ROM library: over 300 fully-documented Java classes, more that 250 easy-to-adapt HTML and JavaScript documents, the Java Developers Kit (versions 1.0 and 1.1), and Internet Explorer. * The Core Series: By Programmers, For Programmers. Series Editor Gary Cornell, co-author of the wildly successful Core Java, brings his diverse experience and unique perspective to a new series of books written by programmers, for programmers. Like Core Java, every book in this series is designed for serious programmers. Rely on Core books when you want to: * Write commercial-quality code * Learn from non-trivial programs and examples-not toy code! * Focus on the features and functions that help you deliver real applications * Get objective, unbiased coverage of cutting-edge technologies-not hype! *** Quantity Available: 1.

About this title

Synopsis

A comprehensive Web programming resource aimed at the serious developer or upper-level student. Reflects plenty of real-world experience and pointers to key pitfalls and bugs in the major implementations. Four main topics are covered:

HTML: Complete coverage of the HTML 3.2 spec, major Netscape and Internet Explorer extensions, frames, cascading style sheets, dynamic/layered HTML via either extended style sheets or the LAYER and ILAYER elements.

Java: Java 1.1 and 1.0. Detailed coverage of the 1.1 event model. Exhaustive coverage of *every* AWT component. Basic syntax, OOP intro, threads, sockets, RMI, JDBC, serialization, inner classes, double buffering, etc. Hundreds of examples.

CGI Programming: The HTTP specification (request methods, request headers, response status line, response headers, cookies). The client side (HTML forms, sending GET and POST data from applets). The server side (CGI environment variables, writing CGI programs in Java, a CGI form parser and cookie value parser in java, the servlet API, CGI alternatives). An overview of public-key cryptography.

JavaScript: JavaScript 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. Writing cross-platform scripts. Customizing pages. Manipulating layers. Validating CGI forms. Animating images. Handling events. Regular expressions. Complete quick reference to all of JavaScript 1.2.

The text presents over 200 HTML and JavaScript documents, and more than 250 Java classes, which are also available on the book's CD-ROM.
