whitepaper Adapting the Web Development Environment for Accessible and Usable Application Construction2005-08-16 Universidad Carlos III Madrid
  Web application accessibility requires the enforcement of a set of rules on the content written or generated with the help of Web Development Environments. W3C Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative is the most significant normative effort in this direction, and provides an evolving corpus of accessibility recommendations for HTML and, in the future, for other Web languages. This paper describes a practical and extensible approach to integrate those recommendations in commercial Web Development Environments by using a rule database.

whitepaper Best Practices for Accessible Flash Design2005-08-01 Adobe Systems
  If a web designer is new to Flash accessibility, it is best to keep in mind that the biggest challenge to creating accessible rich media may not be the technical aspect, but rather the mental. Designers must create and revisit their use case scenarios regularly while continuing to test and review using assistive technologies. Getting to know and understand these use cases will help designers develop the instincts they need to build applications that are not only accessible but truly usable for people with disabilities. The techniques reflected in this paper are neither technically advanced, nor are they aesthetically challenging.

whitepaper Blog or Not?2005-07-03 Dish Network Television
  Blogging is hot, and seems to be becoming hotter each month. Although blogging originally was dismissed, by many successful publishers and other online "gurus", the truth is that now, a few years after the "blogging trend" began, there are actually more blogs and more bloggers online than ever before.   
whitepaper Buying Text Links2005-07-01 Dish Network Television
  It is widely agreed that SEM (search engine marketing) is one of today's most cost efficient and effective methods of marketing a web site. One of the most important aspects of SEM is obtaining link popularity. For example, if you expect to rank high in Google for the search term "search engine optimization" it is important to have other sites link to you with "search engine optimization" within the text of the link. This is called anchor text. Generally the more sites linking to you with your target keyword within the anchor text the better. However, it should be noted that not all links are of equal value.

whitepaper The Do's and Don'ts of Launching a Small Business Website2005-06-09 SteeZo Media
  Launching a new small business website is often a long and painstaking process. And for most small businesses, the endeavor rarely ends in success. The terrain is mapped with freelancers, firms, and consultants that don't offer the same services and most certainly don't charge the same prices. Projects are often riddled with unclear expectations, missed deadlines, and ridiculous hourly rates. What's worse is that many developers have the audacity to ask for even more money halfway through the project. The purpose of this paper is to aid you in launching a successful website with minimal pain and effort.   
whitepaper Survey of Technologies for Web Application Development2005-06-01 Association for Computing Machinery
  Web-based application developers face a dizzying array of platforms, languages, frameworks and technical artifacts to choose from. The paper survey, classifies, and compares technologies supporting Web application development. The classification is based on foundational technologies; integration with other information sources; and dynamic content generation. The paper further survey and classify software engineering techniques and tools that have been adopted from traditional programming into Web programming. The paper concludes that, although the infrastructure problems of the Web have largely been solved, the cacophony of technologies for Web-based applications reflects the lack of a solid model tailored for this domain.

whitepaper Design and Development of an Academic Portal2005-05-04 Saur
  A Web portal can be defined as a Web site for a specific audience that aggregates an array of content and provides a variety of services including search engines, directories, news, e-mail and chat rooms. This paper investigates the factors that must be considered during the design and development of an academic portal. Personal interviews were conducted with academics in order to identify the content, functions, appearance and value of an academic portal. A working academic portal, the Infoportal, was developed to support academics' task performance.

whitepaper Active Server Pages (ASP) Installation Tutorial0000-00-00 Macronimous.com
  ASP is the web implementation and the subset of VBScript developed by Microsoft. The scripts are used to make the HTML page dynamic and to connect & send the data to the databases. ASP scripts are run at the web server. The scripts can collect the data from the HTML forms {link} and can send them to the databases to store them. ASP is used to create dynamic, fast and interactive web sites. The aim of this paper is to give the basic and necessary knowledge on ASP script customization and basics on databases even for a non-programmer.
