The Internet can sometimes seem a baffling place. During its brief lifetime, its billions of users have devised many different ways and hundreds of software tools for working on it - with new techniques and programs appearing all the time. They have also evolved a language rich in technicalities and jargon, that may simplify communication between experienced users but can be a barrier to the novice.
But look closer, and take heart. In reality, the concepts are not hard to understand and much of the software - especially the most recent - is very simple to use. Teach Yourself The Internet explains the basic concepts of data communications, covers the essentials of setting up an Internet connection, outlines many of the facilities available and explores the major tools. Jargon and technical details are kept to a minimum or explained in detail where necessary.
As there are so many different services, software packages and ways of working, and to accommodate your own interests, Teach Yourself The Internet contains a "hot links" system of cross references, allowing you to customise how you use the book according to your needs.
The Internet is in a constant state of change. This new edition picks up all the significant developments and offers up-to-date web addresses and examples.
In its new .net version, Visual Basic can be used to create stand-alone applications, ActiveX applets for Web pages, and libraries of functions that can be retrieved from other programs. Compatible with other languages in Microsoft's Visual Studio set, its programs can share data and functions with programs written in those languages. Teach Yourself Visual Basic uses jargon-free language to help new IT users focus on essential structures and techniques, and then move on to advanced features.
For beginners, JavaScript (a programming language for use on web pages) is much easier and more rewarding to learn than Java.
With JavaScript, you can write code directly into a web page and do not have to buy or download special software. You can use single JavaScript commands to do animation effects, or little bits of code to handle calculations, feedback to visitors etc; and later you can use JavaScript to create quite complex structures.
Teach Yourself JavaScript is a practical introduction to the language, which encourages even complete beginners to enhance their web pages and eventually to produce animated text and graphics, games and more complex facilities.
