Web Programming—Free, Fast, and Fun!
by Bill Robertson

The tools required to create web pages are most likely already available on your computer: a text editor and a Web browser. The HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) will be used in order to develop Web pages in which form and content can be integrated as well as controlled independently. A discussion of "publishing" Web pages and advanced web technologies will follow.

Commentary:

Bill Robertson, Los Alamos National Laboratory, presented HTML topics for both beginners and advanced participants. Robertson noted that commercial web-authoring products may be beyond the financial reach of many school districts and so urged and demonstrated using readily available, free tools such as a text editor and a web browser for creating web pages. Uses of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) were of interest to participants. He made time in his presentation to answer questions about the advanced tools useful for sophisticated design.
