Web interfaces
Web Interfaces refer to the technologies used to create web pages:
- XML
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a general-purpose specification for creating custom markup languages.[1]
- XHTML
Extendible HyperText Markup Language is a well-formed variation of HTML using the XML standards. XHTML was developed out of the need for a more lean and fast markup language, as opposed to HTML which derived from SGML, a complex and slow ancestor of HTML. Because of this, HTML parsers are slow and inadequate for today's needs in Internet.[2]
- CSS
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a standard for formatting elements of a HTML of XHTML document. Styles can be attached to a HTML document through the <style> tag or through an external link: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css" /> [3]
- DTD
DTD (Document Type Definition) is the first language for specifing the structure of XML documents. DTD files allow defining XML elements, attributes and simple restrictions to elements.
- JavaScript
JavaScript is an object oriented language. It is used to building web sites or to acces object in external applications. Despite the name, there are no major similarities between JAVA and Javascript. Javascript allows usage to complex functions for advanced requirements.
- AJAX
AJAX, or Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, is a group of interrelated web development techniques used for creating interactive web applications or rich Internet applications.[4]
