What is markup language?

Markup language is method in which the text is annotated or commented so that the document is differentiated and the computer can manipulate it. It is readable by human beings because the text is written in markup tag. When you write the text to be displayed on internet, you need to differ between that text and instructions. So in simple terms markup language is a set of words and tag symbols which give instructions on how that particular document should be displayed in output.

There are broadly three types of markup languages; 1) Presentational.  2) Procedural 3) Descriptive.  Several markup languages like HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), XML (Extensible Markup Language), XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language), MathML (Mathematical Markup Language), RTF (Rich text format), SVG(scalable vector graphics), SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language), GuideML (Guide Markup Language) etc are used. In these languages tags are used to manipulate code. Markup language is created by typing code manually or by using editor. Text editors, Object editors, WYSIWYG and WYSIWYM are some of the examples of the editors.

HTML is most commonly used Markup language. It is used to build website. It helps to define how the text, images should be displayed in web browsers. It is one of the standard languages rated by W3C. It uses angular brackets as its tags to define code. E.g. <b> tag is used for to bold the test; <i> tag is used to make text italic; <u> for underline, <img> is used for image, <font> for size and family of font, <p> for paragraph, <marquee> for motion of the text etc.

About Scripting Languages

Scripting languages are based on high level programming language. High level languages are more compatible to human language than system and it is very useful to system hardware to recognize the various instructions. C, C++ etc. are the example of high level language and all these language are converted into machine language via interpreter and compiler. Scripting means a programs that are written in scripting languages are not executed in front of specific period for particular system. As a substitute scripts which are made in plain text get interpreted into system compatible code when the program runs.

We can add the interactivity into web pages using scripting language. We can use it in many places in our web pages to carry out various cyclic jobs like filling the content in web based form along with users.

JavaScript is popular web scripting language and we can use it with HTML language to improve the functionality of web pages. We can use java scripting with HTML many times to perform some action such as to check validation of input which is put by user, playing audio and video file and image sliding etc.

There are various browsers and they are Internet explorer, Firefox, safari, Google Chrome and Opera etc. all are interpreting these scripting languages along with languages which are used to build web page. In other way this can be done at server side means these scripting are run at server. In server base scripting common gateway interface allow client to execute the scripting located in web server.

Standards for website design and development

People have been using every type of medium to promote and sell their products and services. Yet Internet is the best medium for this.  Attractive and catchy websites can pull attention of consumer towards their company thereby increasing their sales. However there are some standard for designing and developing websites.

There are not any obligatory web standards. Anybody can design and develop site according to his own initiative. However following the recommendations of institutes like W3C (World Wide Web Consortium), ISO (International Organization for Standardization), ECMA (European Computer Manufacturers Association), ensures the quality of sites, lowers the cost of production, makes sites accessible to most of the people and on most of the Internet devices. They require less bandwidth. They are extensible, easy to maintain and compatible with most of browsers.

There are following web standards.

Structural and semantic languages: Developer should use structural and semantic languages like HTML, XML, and XHTML.

Presentation Languages:  CSS which stands for Cascading Style Sheet is a presentation language. There are three levels of this.

Object Models:  DOM stands for Document Object Model. Again there are three levels of DOM.

Scripting Languages:  ECMA which is advance version of JavaScript.

Additional Markup Languages:  Mathematical Markup Languages like MathML 1.01, MathML 2.0.

These were the languages and other aspects recommended by W3C to build standard website.

As written above the first thing is the code on site, it should be validated. The code doesn’t mean only HTML but also XHTML, CSS, JavaScript. The validation of code means it should be according to definition of doctype. The code should be semantically correct. It means each element in web page should have it’s conform value and purpose. Following these standards helps Google and other search engines to properly understand the each and every part of web page’s code. It provides great help for SEO.

Asynchronous JavaScript and Xml (Ajax) Technology

Ajax is assembly of correlated web development tools and which is used on the client side application to build asynchronous application. The application which is developed using Ajax tools that can be send and retrieve data to and from the server without disturbing the any other part of same page of that web application.

Ajax is a collection of multiple technologies. In which we should do the mark up and style the information using HTML and CSS tools. We can develop a web application in which information exchange asynchronously between server and browser using the concept of JavaScript and XmlHttpRequest object.

              

Figure: Comparison between classic and Ajax based web application model. It can reject the start and stop environment of communication on web application by hosting the concept of Ajax engine between the user and web server. The whole process looks similar to putting new layer in application and that takes longer time to react. This process loads only particular section of web page instead of whole page. When session is started the web browser loads

Ajax engine which is built by using JavaScript and frequently put left in unseen frame. When we work on client side programming at that time we cannot access the function of server side. But this is possible when we uses Ajax technology. In this technology we can access server side function by using page method which is built in JavaScript.

Most of the Google products are developed using Ajax Technique and they are Orkut, Google map, Google suggest and Google groups.

Designing & Developing Website

Developing a website is easy said, than done. The work needs information about how to initiate.  The languages used for the purpose are known as Markup languages. Before you start on with the task, you must take care of requirements. The concept should be clear much before the whiteboard stage.

There are various Markup languages to select from like Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML), Extended Markup Language (XML) and Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) etc. These languages require text editor for development and formatting purpose. The file thus created over text editor is to be saved with respected markup language extension.

Markup languages define tags for related formatting. They are incapable of generating results and hence for further coding either VB or Java are infused.  There other languages like PHP (hyper text pre-processor)  are strong enough to format and code simultaneously.

There are many tools available for aiding the development. These tools are actually the development environment. There are varied types including the one that provides framework and theme to the one where in we have to develop everything from scratch. The site development involves managing content and data queries both.

Data queries are generally meant for passing down the data across the pages or for retrieving it from storage. These queries have to be effective enough to get the required data without delay. To perform such queries it is necessary to have a storage. The storage mostly used is called the database. It is used to store the data acquired from site. This makes processing easy and fast.

Developing a site solely depends on the requirement. If the site is static informative, it will have simple functionality. If site is dynamic and information processing, then it will be complicated.
