Exploring Software
.
- The tags usually come in pairs, in such a way that whatever you do, you can later undo.
The purpose of web browsers like safari, FireFox and etc is to read the HTML documents then display them as web pages. it doesn't show the tags but uses the HTML tags to convert/ interpret the content on the page.
Microsoft frontpage is a HTML editor and web site administration tool created by Microsoft operating systems. With frontpage there are interactive buttons that give users a way to create web images and graphics for navigation on web pages and links instead of using complicated image-editors like adobe photoshop and etc. It was created so users could be able to create and edit pages without knowing any HTML.
- Dreamweaver
Dreamweaver is a web development application that was created by macromedia/ adobe system, dreamweaver does the same things that frontpage does like allowing us to create and develop web pages/ sites without having to use or know in hyper text language.Dreamweaver can hide The HTML code details of pages from the user creating the web page making it possible for non-code users to creates sites and etc. with this application it is very easy to create table-based layouts. It supports CSS, JavaScript and other web related technologies. It also allows its users to preview their websites in locally-installed web browsers.
- A wiki provides meaningful things related to the subject topic between different pages with easy page links and showing weather and intended web page exists or not.A wiki enables documents to be written collaborate lively in a simple markup language using your web browser.
- One disadvantage with wiki's is that any user can edit the information/ date on the web page and sometimes that information may not be accurate or true, so they aren't a very reliable source for information because pretty much anyone with access to the wiki software can change or add on false information which can facilitate abuse of the system. I don't think that using a wiki for a digital portfolio is a good option because anyone with access to the browser can change or edit the information you have put on your web page.
- HTML- Is this a good option for creating a digital portfolio?

Charlene,
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I love hat you insert images to reinforce your comments.
To conclude that FP and DW are the same type of software is great, maybe you cannot say which is one is the best, but you will discover it. I prefer DW, it is easier to use, at least for me.
Doing a web site just in pure HTML can be harder, but it is important to understand HTML a little bit, so if you have a problem with the editors you can see the “HTML code” to fix it.
During this week you will be working with HTM to learn the basics. You will be receiving an email with instructions.
