whitepaper FrontPage 2003: The Missing Manual - Cascading Style Sheets2005-09-12 O'Reilly Media
  When HTML receives its lifetime achievement award from the World Wide Web Academy, it surely won't be for the gorgeous documents it helped produce. HTML's layout capabilities are pretty limited. So now that one understands basic HTML formatting, one is probably wondering how some Web sites manage to look so sleek. Cascading Style Sheets, or CSS, have advanced the cause of Web design enormously. With CSS, an author gains greater control over what each page looks like. Style sheets contain specific typographic and color controls to improve the site's appearance, and most of these CSS tools surpass regular HTML formatting capabilities. But styles go beyond controlling text and color.

whitepaper Internet Basics2006-02-24 01:01:25
  Browser is the vehicle you use to navigate the web. This paper describes browser applications and configurations. There are three leading web browser applications, and several other options. One's choice depends on the preferences and experiences. Nowadays most people use one of the mainstream browsers: Internet Explorer, Mozilla, or the older Netscape.   
whitepaper A Soft Landing to ODS 9.12006-12-13 01:00:24 SAS Institute
  This paper provides some information on the changes that occurred with the ODS destinations between SAS 8.2 and SAS 9.1. This is not intended as a "What's New" in ODS, but to point out changes between the releases that might affect the output in SAS 9.1. The HTML destination is one of the major changes to SAS 9.1. The HTML destination in SAS 9.1 is now a part of the ODS Markup family. File sizes are also smaller with the new HTML destination for 9.1. This is because internal CSS style sheets are used for formatting, which is a W3C mandate for HTML 4.0.   
whitepaper A Reference Architecture for Web Browsers2006-02-24 01:01:25
  Reference architecture for a domain captures the fundamental subsystems common to systems of that domain as well as the relationships between these subsystems. Having reference architecture available can aid both during maintenance and at design time: it can improve understanding of a given system, it can aid in analyzing tradeoffs between different design options, and it can serve as a template for designing new systems and re-engineering existing ones. This paper examines the history of the web browser domain and identifies several underlying phenomena that have contributed to its evolution. The authors develop reference architecture for web browsers based on two well known open source implementations, and validate it against two additional implementations.   
whitepaper Accessibility and D2L: Can You Read This if You're Blind?2006-03-09 02:33:20
  This paper reports on the accessibility and usability of the Desire to Learn (D2L) course management software, version 7.4.x. The authors looked at what they determined would be the most widely widgets used: the course list page, contents, calendar, discussions, and e-mail. They have shared this information with D2L and many of these problems identified here are slated to be fixed in future releases, and, therefore, may be resolved by the time of the conference in August 2005. They browsed the Web using Microsoft's Internet Explorer version 6.0 with SP2 and the AIS Web Accessibility Toolbar installed, and with Mozilla's Firefox using the Web Developer and Tidy extensions, and the Accessibility Extensions for Firefox from the University of Illinois.   
whitepaper Building Accessible Dynamic Websites With Macromedia ColdFusion MX 72006-08-30 01:00:13 Adobe Systems
  This white paper examines the tools and techniques required to build an accessible web application using Macromedia ColdFusion MX. With the recent adoption of standards for accessibility in the United States, Australia, Canada, Japan, the European Union, and a number of other countries around the world, ensuring the accessibility of web content has become immensely important. In accordance with the Section 508 standards and the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative guidelines, the paper reviews the HTML elements and attributes needed to build an accessible dynamic web application. The paper explains how each HTML element and attribute is used by people with disabilities and how this information is coded in the ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML).   
whitepaper Fujitsu's Efforts to Improve Web Accessibility2005-08-04 03:00:01
  Efforts to improve Web accessibility are intensifying around the world. For example, in June 2004, the Japanese Standards Association established JIS X 8341-3 as an official Japanese industrial standard for information accessibility. When a company constructs an accessible Website as part of a Web accessibility enhancement program, it should not only conform to JIS X 8341-3 but also provide a support system for organized corporate activities, standardize its procedures for Website construction, and use guidelines that are consistent with standards in Japan and other countries. This paper describes the Fujitsu organized activities for enhancing Web accessibility that yielded these results and the Fujitsu system for realizing accessible Websites.   
whitepaper Integrating Oracle HTML DB With Oracle Application Server 10g2005-08-04 03:00:01
  Oracle HTML DB - a feature of the Oracle Database 10g - is a powerful and easy to use web application development platform. With Oracle HTML DB, you can quickly develop and deploy applications in a matter of hours, often without writing a single line of code. This paper will discuss the various integration points between the two, how they can enhance your Oracle HTML DB applications, and at the same time, save hours of development time.   
whitepaper SAS ODS Technology for Today's Decision Makers2006-12-27 01:00:56 SAS Institute
  This paper provides something for everyone at all levels. As a programmer, a person can now create most any file types directly from SAS. In addition, the level of control and flexibility to format the output enables a higher degree of customization. As a statistician, a person will want to take advantage of ODS for more efficient data analysis. The tools available in ODS facilitate multiple iterations of an analysis and ease of locating significant results. As a manager, he has various options to view and analyze the data and reports. Managers can access complex hierarchy of drill-down HTML or PDF files for a better understanding of the data or custom excel files with ODS's latest technology.   
whitepaper ODS MARKUP: The SAS Reports You've Always Dreamed Of2006-12-22 01:00:22 SAS Institute
  This paper explains why Output Delivery System (ODS) tagsets are going to take over the world. ODS tagsets are incredibly powerful tools that can simplify and conquer the worst of problems. New ODS markup destinations are being created all the time. One of the most powerful aspects of ODS markup is its ability to reuse and combine previous work to create more powerful and flexible ODS markup destinations.
