Browser Wars

In 1994, Netscape put up the first fences on the Web in so-called browser wars. In order to attract users, they threw universality to the wind and created a set of extensions to HTML that only Netscape could handle. For example, Web surfers using Netscape could view pages with different size and color text, photographs in JPEG format, background color and images, and in later versions, Multiple pages in a single window, called frames. Surfers with any other browser would get errors and funny looking results. Or nothing at all.

But people liked those extensions so much that they flocked to Netscape. By June of 1996, it had become the most popular computer program in the world with 38 million users.

Microsoft soon joined in, and started putting a fence in its own chunk of the Web. Again, to attract users they added non-standard extensions to HTML that only Internet Explorer, Microsoft's browser, could recognize.



So who do you design for? Netscape, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera or Flock users? It's a designer's nightmare and the web is suffering because of it.

Introduction to HTML

Before we go to our basic coding in HTML, Lets all start from the beginning.

All of the web pages are written in HTML, HTML lets us add graphics, sound, video and format text and then save it all in a text only or ASCII file the only a computer can read. The Key to HTML is in the TAGS keywords enclosed with (<) or Less Than and (>) Greater Than signs.

But today their is a lot of software programs that can create HTML codes like the most known Macromedia but the advantage in learning HTML on your own means you'll never be limited to a particular program's feature and you can add whatever you want without having to struggle with confusing software or wait for software updates instead you can use even NOTEPAD in making web pages.


Macromedia Preview...

In this Blog we will go over to the basic to advanced in HTML.

HTML or HyperText Markup Language has 2 essential features, the HYPERTEXT and UNIVERSALITY. Hypertext means you can create a link in a web page that leads the visitor to any other page and Universality means that HTML documents are saved as ASCII or Text Only Files virtually any computer can read a Web Page.

ALL NEW ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 4

Are you using the Adobe CS3? If you are going to ask me that question my answer would be sometimes, Because I am using the CS2 version and when I decided to use CS3, Abode release another one again, I haven't use the CS3 to its full potential yet but I really do hope that CS4 will be much greater to use than the previous versions of adobe. Anyway heres a little details about CS4.

The latest version, Adobe Creative Suite 4 (CS4), was announced on September 23, 2008 as the successor to Adobe Creative Suite 3. It was officially released on October 15, 2008. 30-day trials for all products except those in Japanese should be available by mid-November 2008. Japanese-language trials are expected to be available by early December 2008. Adobe sells Creative Suite applications in six different combinations called "editions".

New in Creative Suite 4

All applications in CS4 feature the same user interface, with a new tabbed interface for working with concurrently running Adobe CS4 programs where multiple applications can be opened inside multiple tabs contained in a single window. It was announced that nVidia CUDA technology is now supported to allow for the accelerated encoding of video.
Adobe CS4 is also developed to perform better under 64-bit and multi-core processors. Adobe Photoshop CS4, Adobe After Effects CS4, Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, and Adobe Soundbooth CS4 will officially support 64-bit. However, Adobe CS4 64-bit will not be available for Mac OS X. In early testing of 64-bit support in Adobe Photoshop CS4, overall performance gains ranged from 8% to 12%. Those who work with extremely large files may realize noticeably greater gains in performance, in some cases as dramatic as ten times the previous speed. This is because 64-bit applications can address larger amounts of memory and thus result in less file swapping — one of the biggest factors that can affect data processing speed.
