There is much more to creating a Web site than simply knowing HTML. Designers must first understand the ins-and-outs of image manipulation and compression, animation through the use of GIFs, ActiveX controls, Java applets, and server-push operations. Server administrators must understand security issues involving secure transactions, digital signatures, and firewalls. Regardless of the Web-based task at hand, users should find solutions within this text, including: customizing server settings; using CGI, JavaScript, and VBScript; search engines and "hit" counters; caching techniques that maximaize server performance; and streaming video and RealAudio. The book's companion CD-ROM contains utilities, scripts, and applets that users can put to immediate use on their systems.
