    Web Programming: Unit 1: Introduction To Dynamic Websites

    Dynamic web pages allow content and design to live separately, with content stored in a database and placed on webpages when needed. This allows for quicker page loading and easier updates by non-technical users through a backend. Dynamic pages are well-suited for galleries, calendars, e-commerce, and other frequently changing content. Client-side scripting like JavaScript dynamically changes page interfaces in the browser, while server-side scripting like PHP dynamically builds pages by processing scripts and queries on the server. Most business websites today are dynamically built to allow user interaction like online shopping carts.

    UNIT 1 : INTRODUCTION TO DYNAMIC WEBSITES

    Classical hypertext navigation occurs among "static" documents, and, for web users, this experience is reproduced using static web pages. However, web navigation can also provide an interactive experience that is termed "dynamic". Content (text, images, form fields, etc.) on a web page can change, in response to different contexts or conditions. There are two ways to create this kind of interactivity: 1. Using client-side scripting to change interface behaviors within a specific web page, in response to mouse or keyboard actions or at specified timing events. In this case the dynamic behavior occurs within the presentation. Its embedded within an HTML document 2. Using server-side scripting to change the supplied page source between pages, adjusting the sequence or reload of the web pages or web content supplied to the browser. Server responses may be determined by such conditions as data in a posted HTML form, parameters in the URL, the type of browser being used, the passage of time, or a database or server state. The result of either technique is described as a dynamic web page, and both may be used simultaneously.

    DYNAMIC WEBPAGE
    Dynamic webpage are those where the content and design live separately. The content lives in a database that is placed on a webpage only when needed or asked. The benefit of this is that it allows for quicker page loading and it allows just about anyone, with limited or no web design experience, to update their own website via an administrative backend. This set up is ideal for those who wish to make frequent changes to their websites including text and image updates. Dynamic webpage are also great for image galleries, online calendars or e-commerce, etc.

    CLIENT-SIDE SCRIPTING
    The Client-side content is generated on the client's (user) computer. The web browser retrieves a page from the server, then processes the code embedded in the page (typically written in JavaScript) and displays the retrieved page's content to the user.

    SERVER-SIDE SCRIPTING
    Server-side dynamic content is a little bit more complicated. The client sends the server the request. The server receives the request and processes the server-side script such as PHP based on the query string, HTTP POST data, cookies, etc.

    Most business websites these days are dynamic meaning that the web pages are dynamically built pages that allow user interaction. This is required for example for an online shopping cart. They are usually built with a programming language such as ASP, PHP or JAVA. This code "creates" the HTML that is displayed in the browser. XHTML and XML are standards which are probably eventually replace HTML. However most sites are still "output" in HTML because this is visible in most browsers.

    Dynamic sites are often database-driven. This means that the site content is stored in a database and the dynamic code "pulls" the content from a database. The web technologies listed below - are the most commonly used programming languages for building dynamic websites. ASP PHP JAVA CGI Scripts Javascript DHTML XML SSI
