For undergraduate or professional courses in the effective use of the Internet and HTML.

The second edition of this popular text has been redesigned to accommodate the new Internet concepts that have been developed. It integrates two essential topics of the Internet in one source, presenting the fundamentals of the Internet and its scripting tools (XHTML and JavaScript) to help students understand and effectively utilize its dynamic nature. The text presents general concepts that can be applied to a wide variety of software; its examples and exercises ask students to use the leading e-mail tools (Eudora, Hotmail, Outlook Express 6.0, Yahoo mail, Netscape 4.8 Messenger, Netscape 7.01 mailer, and Opera 7 M2); as well as the leading HTML editors (FrontPage 2002, Composer 7.01, and AceHTML 5.0). It effectively covers two leading servers: Apache server version 2.0.45, and Tomcat server version 4.1.24, both from the Apache group. Mastering the Internet and HTML strikes a delicate balance between subject breadth and depth, and between generic and practical aspects of the Internet.
