Html Xhtml And Dynamic Html 4th Edition Case Answers
Why doesn't my page look the same in Internet Explorer as it does in Netscape? The Internet Explorer- Netscape struggle is probably the most vexing problem on the Web. You work hard designing a great page, you test it in your browser, you upload it to your server—and five minutes later your first visitor writes to complain that they can't see anything, or that what they see is not what they're supposed to see (see ). What went wrong?
The three common culprits are tables, frames, and style sheets. Solving table and frameset problems is easy: Be sure to use a closing or tag for each opening one that you code. Style sheets are trickier—the problem is that neither browser supports style sheets completely. The solution is to restrict your use of style sheets to those elements that both browsers get. What happened to my images? And why don't my links work? If you get little red x's or the question mark icon instead of your images, or if your links don't go where they're supposed to, you've probably got problems with URLs, or Uniform Resource Locators, which is just a fancy name for an address.
Each and every file (including HTML pages, images, sounds, video, and anything else you have on your page) has a unique address on the Web. The URL is made up of a path and a filename. The path describes exactly where the file is on the server (not your local hard disk!), and it can be either an absolute address (starting from the root directory, go into the Web directory, and then into the Site directory, and get the xyz file), or a relative address (it's the xyz file that's in this same directory as the page the reference is on).
In general, use relative addresses for all the files on your server, and use absolute addresses to link to files on other servers. You must get the address exactly right—matching upper and lower case letters, and spelling everything correctly. Finally, make sure you upload the file where you say it will be in the URL.
These Web pages contain all the examples from the book written by Elizabeth Castro. Use these examples to help you understand the difference between raw (X)HTML code and what appears within your browser. Scroll down to the appropriate chapter (or use the left navigational bar as a shortcut). Each chapter's example files are listed. Click an example to view it. To see the (X)HTML code, choose View Source or View Page Source or however the command is worded in your browser.
For more information about viewing the source code, see page 67 in the book. (I'll get to information about downloading all the examples shortly.) Note that all of the examples, as well as their auxiliary files (CSS, CGI, and PHP files) will open in the same “examples” window. If you have room, leave both this window and the examples window open on your screen. Not all sections have examples. If the section does not appear, that means there is no example for that section. In that case, just consult the corresponding section in the book where you'll most often find a complete explanation.

Some sections have more links than you might expect. For example, check out the Appendices, down at the bottom of the list at left. You'll find live links to the HTML tools and graphics, and online versions of the charts in Appendices B-D. There's also an online version of the index and several color charts. You can also download the all at once (for either Macintosh or Windows).
If you need help unzipping either file, check out (again, for both Macs and Windows), or your favorite decompression program. A version of this page that you are reading (with localized links) is also included, and as you can see below, it contains a helpful table that explains which files go with which pages/sections.

If you have any questions or comments about the examples, please to me. I'll do my best to help you out. Note that you can still find the examples from both the and the online.
