Introduction to Web Development Using HTML 5

The HTML 5 Web Development book provides a hands-on experience that allows first-time Web-site developers to create their first Web pages and experienced developers to quickly master HTML 5. The book is filled with thousands of real-world examples. The book starts by introducing standard HTML and its use in creating traditional Web sites. Within this context, the book teaches developers how to format and style their pages using cascading style sheets (CSS) and how to automate pages using JavaScript and JQuery. HTML 5 allows Web developers to not only build pages for the World Wide Web, but also to build pages for mobile devices and tablet PCs. The second half of the book introduces developers to all aspects of HTML 5. Developers will learn to create location-aware applications that display content based on the user’s current location, to drag and drop items within a Web page, and much more. Instructors will receive a Test Bank, while the Student Companion Website hosts chapter PowerPoints, assignments, learning objectives, a glossary of must-know terms and quizzes.
