Web Design

Web Design (also Web organization) covers the organization, the structure and the user guidance of web pages for the WWW and/or. the interface Design within this range. Usually structured texts become, in XHTML and/or. HTML are written, includingsupplementing diagrams with CSS formats.

The Web designer (Internet agency) has thereby the task, the best compromise between the desires of the client to find to the requirements of the visitors and the technical possibilities.

Navigation and structure of the web pages are to come as much as possible against humans. Here however e.g. experience. manyhandicapped humans of disadvantages, it need web pages, which are barrier-free arranged. In an hypertext too if many options are given from left, this can to a disorientation, to which draws to so mentioned in hyperspace lead.

To the use friendliness the accesibility comes itself, intothe avoidance of techniques manifested, by which information is attainable with a certain Browser only, or by the work from (text) alternatives to multimedia contents. Flash and other Browsererweiterungen must be therefore not in principle avoided, it should be however guaranteed thatcontents also without these techniques remain fully callable.

Here form applies follows function (English. wörtl. () Form follows (from) function). So it should be guaranteed that with partially artful Design the usability (English. Usability) of the web pageis lost.

An important aspect with the Web Design is a correct text honor and knowledge in Webtypografie. During web pages for the Browsergenerationen 4 (Netscape 4 and Internet Explorer 4) were still very differently written, can the Web developer in the currentVersions (Mozilla, Internet Explorer 6, Opera, Konqueror, etc.) a large support of the standards of the W3C expect.

Web Design differs from the Design for other media particularly by this strong reader orientation. It is justified in the fact that Websurferusually purposefully after information and a Site searches only so long visits as absolutely necessarily. The strong text annoyingness of Web Design hangs partially. however also with the indexing possibilities of search machines together.

Client and server-lateral development

program code for control and to the outwardFeature of the Website can be implemented either by server-lateral script languages such as PHP , Perl , ASPNet , ColdFusion or JSP (Java server Pages ) or also by to a large extent clientseitige extensions such as Flash, Java or Javascript. There is also thosePossibility, client and server-lateral technologies to combine, for example PHP and Flash, in order to be able to use the advantages of both. One should not pay attention to deal with clientseitigen extensions economically there the necessary Plugins with the user is present often orJavascript for safety reasons was switched off.

Tendencies

the development of the Web Design in the last years noticeably calmed down. After the introduction of Flash 1997 itself essentially only W3C knew - conformal technologies such as CSS, XHTML or also Javascript and Java establish. With nearly all new Websites one concentrates at present on the Ausreizen of these technologies.

Most other techniques disappeared to a large extent from the market and/or. new technologies can be hardly still implemented due to range lacking. Apart from fashionable trendsnew developments are those the Web Design affect nearly only server-laterally to find. Extensions, which are based on XML, form the only exception. Since practically each modern Browser XML can process, new possibilities in the Web Design are to be particularly expected within this range,e.g.Vector diagram with SVG and representation of mathematical formulas with MathML.
