Web Development

Web Development Technologies

There are two types of Web Development Technologies.

1. Client-Side Technologies
2. Server-Side Technologies

Client-Side Technologies :

XHTML

XHTML is a markup language designed to structure information for presentation as web pages. We write all our XHTML by hand, ensuring that it is clean, valid and of the highest standard. This means that pages have fastest download times possible, are viewable on all browsers, are search engine friendly, and have maximum forward compatibility.

Cascading Style Sheets

Cascading Style Sheets control how web pages are displayed in the browser, and allow the separation of presentation from structure and content. CSS help ensure that web pages are presented in an accessible way to all visitors, over a wide range of media.

JavaScript

JavaScript is a lightweight scripting technology which is used alongside XHTML documents to make websites more interactive.

Server-Side Technologies :

PHP
PHP is a fast, server-side scripting language that is used to create interactive, dynamic web sites. It is particularly well-suited to integrating with a range of databases.

PHP offers several key advantages:
• Cross-platform operability
• Compatibility with a wide variety of databases
• Support for most current web servers
• Communicates with numerous network protocols
• Not limited to HTML output
• Strong text processing capabilities

JSP

Java Server Pages (JSP) is a technology that lets you mix regular static HTML with dynamically-generated HTML. Many Web pages that are built by CGI programs are mostly static, with the dynamic part limited to a few small locations. But most CGI variations, including servlets, make you generate the entire page via your program, even though most of it is always the same.

The advantages of JSP are twofold. First, the dynamic part is written in Java, not Visual Basic or other MS-specific language, so it is more powerful and easier to use. Second, it is portable to other operating systems and non-Microsoft Web servers.

ASP/ASP.NET

ASP.Net is development under the full control of Microsoft Technology Corporation.
ASP.net is the successor of Asp. Which is more powerful and advanced .It has large set of new controls and XML based components, and better user authentication. ASP.NET uses the new ADO.NET tools for database connection.

Ruby

Ruby is known as programmer’s friendly languages. Ruby is seen as a flexible language, since it allows its users to freely alter its parts. Essential parts of Ruby can be removed or redefined. Existing parts can be added upon. Ruby tries not to restrict the coder.

For example, addition is performed with the plus (+) operator. But, if you’d rather use the readable word plus, you could add such a method to Ruby’s built-in Numeric class.

CGI/Perl

Perl is a programming language that can handle input and output from a Web Server, usually through the Common Gateway Interface. It is most commonly used to process information through forms.

XML/XSL

XML is a software and hardware independent markup language designed for describing and transmitting information. It is set to become the most common tool for all data manipulation and data transmission. XSL is a language for defining, transforming and formatting XML documents.
MySQL

MySQL is a fast, open-source Relational Database Management System that uses the popular Structured Query Language (SQL). It is perfect for most websites that need database functionality, and works hand-in-hand with PHP.

PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL is a more sophisticated open-source Relational Database Management System. It is well-suited to sites that require robust database functionality, such as e-commerce sites.

Linux/Apache

Linux is a popular open-source operating system, and Apache is the most widely-used web server on the Internet. Together they provide a fast, extremely reliable, secure platform for web sites.

Window IIS

Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 is a powerful Web server that provides a highly reliable, manageable, and scalable Web application infrastructure for all versions of Windows Server 2003. IIS helps organizations increase Web site and application availability while lowering system administration costs. It is available with Windows Operating Systems.

SSL/Secure Servers

Unlike normal web servers, secure servers ensure that information exchanged between the visitor and the web site cannot be viewed by any third parties. A secure server is essential when handling confidential information, such as online credit card transactions or personal medical details. SSL, or Secure Socket Layer, is one method of exchanging data securely.
