About this title

Synopsis

Contains canned solutions in the form of Java applets, Shockwave movies, and CGI scripts; and provides an overview of the challenges, solutions, and design issues involved in developing truly interactive web sites. Original. (All Users).

From the Back Cover

Fisher's innovative approach first considers the audience -- the human being on the other side of the screen -- before he guides you through the bewildering array of technical and design issues that confront every Webmaster. An understanding of the psychology of user interaction enables you to plan graphics-intensive, highly interactive Web pages that are right for your audience and for your product or service.

Creating Dynamic Web Sites highlights include: Graphics: Principles for layouts that guide users through the complete site. Animation: Using the latest technologies such as Java™ and Shockwave™ for game-quality response to on-screen interaction. Sound: Tips for synchronizing sound and motion; looping to minimize load time and maximize effectiveness; capturing sound for the best blend of performance and fidelity. Digital Video: Shooting video that digitizes into sharp images -- at a variety of price and performance levels. Resources: A list of tools and technologies destined to become standards; on-line addresses with the latest on new products, tools, and possibilities.

By following test cases and samples, walking through a simple Java applet, and viewing a demonstration of turning a Macromedia Director title into a Shockwave movie, you'll discover how to make audio and video look and sound the best on most platforms, which 3D graphics to buy, which technologies are the best bets for the future, and -- most important -- how to design pages that will draw viewers back again and again.
