XHTML

XHTML is the next generation mark up language that allows for easy integration with XML and XTML. XHTML conforms to strict standards as set out by the W3C making the page display uniformly across a variety of browser platforms.

 

CMS

Content Management System (CMS) is a online system used to store and share information. This is often used as a user management tool for maintaining web site, through a combination of various technologies including PHP, My SQL, CSS and XHTML.This site is powered by Joomla, one of the more internationally recognised CMS.

   

CS3

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS 3) is a technology used to separate the content and the layout of the site.One set of styles can be applied across a whole web site allowing for a standard of design and format across multiple pages.

 

XML

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a general purpose specification used to create custom markup languages. It is easy readable with elements able to be named with meaningful names. i.e. <book> Easy XML </book>

   

PHP Scripting

PHP scripting is a server side scripting language that allows for two way interactivity between the user and the server. This technology can also be used for the development of many user interactive web applications including discussion boards, web mail applications etc. PHP is open source software.

 

Java Script

Java Script is a client side scripting language often used in creating Applets and dynamic web pages. The advantage of this type of technology is that the all scripts are run on the local machine. The major disadvantage is that not all users have java script running on their browsers, resulting in inconsistent rendering of the page.

   

My SQL

My Sql is a powerful RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) that is used to store data that is gathered from web based applications using a server sided scripting language. My Sql is excellent for multi user access and is the RDBMS used in the background for storing data by many well known web applications including Face Book, You Tube and Google.
