HTML is the standard markup language used to create web pages and defines tags that describe text, headings, paragraphs, lists and other document elements. CSS is used to style and lay out HTML elements and can be embedded directly in HTML or linked via a separate file. JavaScript and other scripting languages can be used to add interactive elements to HTML pages. PHP and other server-side languages allow for dynamic content generation and user interaction functionality.

HTML (Hypertext MarkUP
Language)
HTML is the lingua franca for publishing hypertext on
the World Wide Web
Define tags <html><body> <head>.etc
Allow to embed other scripting languages to manipulate
design layout, text and graphics
Platform independent
Current version is 4.x and in February W3C released the
first draft of a test suite 4.01
For more info: http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
Example HTML code:
<HTML>
<head>
<title>Hello World</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor = #000000>
<font color = #ffffff>
<H1>Hello World</H1>
</font>
</body>
</HTML>

Common features
Tables
Frame
Form
Image map
Character Set
Meta tags
Images, Hyperlink, etc
5. 5
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
File Extensions:
HTML, HTM
Recent recommendation of W3C is XHTML 1.0
combines the strength of HTML 4 with the
power of XML.
XHTML 1.0 is the first major change to HTML
since HTML 4.0 was released in 1997

CSS (Cascading Style Sheet)
Simple mechanism for adding style to web page
Code be embedded into the HTML file
HTML tag:
<style type=text/css>CODE</style>
Also be in a separate file FILENAME.css
HTML tag:
<link rel=stylesheet href=scs.css type=text/css>
Style types mainly include:
Font
Color
Spacing

CSS (Cascading Style Sheet)
Controls format:
Font, color, spacing
Alignment
User override of styles
Aural CSS (non sighted user and voice-browser)
Layers
Layout
User Interface
12. 12
JavaScript
Compact object-based scripting language
Code be embedded into HTML file
HTML tag
<script language=javascript>CODE</script>
Also be in a separate file FILENAME.js
HTML tag
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"
SRC=/slideshow/chowdhury-webtech/36410073/FILENAME.js"></SCRIPT>
13. 13
JavaScript
Main objectives:
User interface, CGI capabilities without involving server
Client side compilation
Server provides no support
Security hazard for clients computer
SCS websites JavaScript's Examples
http://www.cs.cmu.edu
14. 14
VBScripts
Microsofts share of scripting language
Similar objectives as JavaScript and any other
scripting language
Similar to Visual Basic
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">CODE</script>
VBScript is integrated with WWW and web
browsers
Other Microsoft developer tools
15. 15
PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor)
PHP- HTML-embedded scripting language
Syntax looks like C, JAVA, and PERL
File extension: FILENAME.php
Main Objective:
Generate Dynamic content
User Interface
Server side loadable module
Server side execution
Current version and release: 4.3.x
More info: http://www.php.net

PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor)
Sample Code
<HTML>
<head><title>
PHP Sample Code</title></head>
<body bgcolor = "#000000">
<font color = "#ffffff"><h1>
This is a PHP TEST</h1>
<p>
<?php
$cnt=0;
while($cnt <= 4)
{ $cnt++;
echo "Hello World<P>"; }
?>
</body></HTML>

PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor)
PHP is getting really popular in the web developers
community
ODBC support
PHP developer community think this is the web future
SCS Undergraduate sites; done in PHP:
http://www.ugrad.cs.cmu.edu/
Drawback:
Security
Easy manipulation of code for hackers
19. 19
CGI (Common Gateway Interface)
Standard for external gateway programs to
interface with information servers such as HTTP
servers
Real-time execution
Main Objective:
Dynamic Content
User Interface
Current version 1.1
20. 20
CGI (Common Gateway Interface)
Various choice in Programming language
selections
C, C++, PERL, Python
PERL; most popular and widely used
Server side execution
Script runs as a stand alone process unlike PHP
Basic difference with PHP is the execution
approach
21. 21
PERL (Practical Extraction and Report
Language)
Commonly used PERL Libraries (Modules):
CGI.pm
DB.pm
DBI.pm
CPAN.pm
Mysql.pm
More on PERL Libraries:

22. 22
PERL (Practical Extraction and Report
Language)
Sample PERL code:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl5.6.1
## printenv -- demo CGI program which just prints its environment
##
print "Content-type: text/plainnn";
foreach $var (sort(keys(%ENV))) {
$val = $ENV{$var};
$val =~ s|n|n|g;
$val =~ s|"|"|g;
print "${var}="${val}"n";
}

PERL (Practical Extraction and Report
Language)
More Example of PERL CGI Scripts:

Mod_PERL (PERL Module for
Apache)
Module that brings together the power of PERL and
Apache HTTP server
PERL interpreter embedded in Web Server
Can provide 100x speedups for CGI scripts execution due
to Apache::Registry module
Reduce load on server
Less coordination of server process

Secured Web Server (HTTPS,
MOD_SSL)
Provide strong cryptography for web server
Mod_ssl is the module for Apache to enable
encrypted web connection
Use Secured Socket Layer (SSL v2/v3) and
Transport Layer Security
Two categories of cryptographic algorithms
Conventional (Symmetric)
Public Key (Asymmetric)
26. 26
Secured Web Server (HTTPS,
MOD_SSL)
Conventional or Symmetric
Sender and Receiver share a key
Public key or Asymmetric
Solve the key exchange issue
Certificate
A certificate associates a public key with the real identity of
an individual, server
Includes the identification and signature of the Certificate
Authority that issued the certificate
28. 28
WebISO (Initial Sign-on and
Pubcookie)
One time authentication process
Typically username/password-based central
authentication
Use standard web browser
Eventually the session time-out
Commonly uses double encryption
29. 29
WebISO (Initial Sign-on and
Pubcookie)
Pubcookie
Main Model:
User-Agent: Web browsers
Authentication Service:
Kerberos, LDAP, NIS
Example:
https://wonderwoman.web.cs.cmu.edu/Reports
31. 31
Cookies
Web cookies are simply bits of software placed on
your computer when you browse websites
WebISO (Pubcookie) use cookie implementation
to keep track of a user
Drawback:
Security
32. 32
Kerberos
Network authentication protocal
Developed in MIT
Strong cryptography
Private (shared) key
Use ticket to authenticate
Never sends password over the network
Single sign-on approach for network
authentication
