Minor Project 6

1- In 1997, David Siegal invented the HTML as a means for visually laying out pages. This was important, because designers could use designing techniques that were used in print media in the Web. This made it possible to reproduce print medias layout which helped with laying out pages. It opened up that the content and structure of a website should depend on visual layout in the minds of web designers. I think what he did was useful for the web to help organize how a site is going to look visually.

2. Whats wrong with "div" elements is that designers are using them to achieve visual layout like how they use tables. When using a lot of div elements, you are increasing the size of your documents as well as increasing the likelihood of errors forming in your project.

3. Naked Structure is when a site is structured logically before the design is added to it. Its the structure of the site without the design.

4. Meaningful, semantic markup. Meaning can be described as semantic. "In markup, semantics is concerned with the meaning of an element and how that element describes the content it contains."

5. The significance of lists is that you can use them in combinations with other structural elements to create new XHTML compounds. You can use lists in ever instance. There are 3 different kinds of lists.

6. And XHTML compound does not provide meaning and context for a single element, yet it provides meaning and context for a list. For example, two people talking and distinguishing who is saying what rather then looking at the conversation as a whole.
