The phenomenal growth of the World Wide Web has brought with it the need for people to program increasingly sophisticated websites in order to display information in an intuitive and efficient way. Effective Website Development examines the entire Web development project lifecycle and covers a range of Web development tools and techniques including XML, XHTML and Dreamweaver. The author takes a step-by-step approach, leading from one concept to the next, and provides the reader with the expertise to design, build and maintain dynamic websites. This book is ideal for undergraduates taking courses in Web design or Internet computing and, as it assumes no prior Web programming knowledge, is also the perfect introduction for anyone with an interest in this exciting subject area.
