New technologies such as Microsoft .NET are moving more and more traditional programmers into the world of Web application development, but most of the tools and books on Web development intended for programmers focus on server side development and neglect the critical client side. Proper use of client scripts, style sheets, and XML are essential for building high performance web applications that provide a rich user environment. This book addresses those client-side issues that every Web application programmer needs to know. "e;Doing Web Development: Client-Side Techniques"e; is designed for professional software developers who are moving into Web development. It provides comprehensive coverage on all aspects of client-side Web development, from basics of HTML to client-side scripting to XML, XSL, and SOAP. In doing so, Kurata provides an essential balance to the server side techniques, such as database access and server component development, that are already familiar to most professional software programmers. These client-side techniques enable Web application developers to offload work to the client computer, improving scalability by reducing server requests, while simultaneously offering a richer user experience.
