| ====== Web Publishing Introduction ====== | |
| |
| For a quick start to publish web pages from your Physics account, carry out the steps given in the section [[:computing:accounts:web_publishing:personal|Personal web pages]]. The section Tools gives a quick introduction to some software you might find useful when creating your pages. The rest of this page attempts to give a few pointers to resources we've found useful on the web. Some of them are reference works, some are highly opinionated... | |
| ===== Some useful web publishing resources ===== | |
| |
| One very useful and interesting resource is [[http://www.photo.net/wtr/thebook/index.html|Philip and Alex's Guide to Web Publishing]]. Unlike many web guides, this covers the overall planning of your web pages; what should be presented there and how it can be organised; as well as having a quick introduction to HTML. | |
| |
| You should also consult the [[http://www1.umn.edu/tc/guidelines/|University of Minnesota World Wide Web publishing guidelines]], at least some of which is sensible advice (it also does contain some requirements for university-hosted pages). | |
| |
| Some more possibly useful resources, including HTML reference guides: | |
| |
| * [[http://www.werbach.com/barebones/|Bare Bones Guide to HTML]] | |
| * [[http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/General/Internet/WWW/HTMLPrimer.html|Beginner's Guide to HTML, at NCSA (pretty old!)]] | |
| * [[http://www.boutell.com/faq/|World Wide Web FAQs, including some information on web browsers and CGI programming]] | |
| * [[http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/tools/97/03/index0a.html|Web browser arrogance - why you shouldn't design only for Netscape or Internet Explorer]] | |
| |
| Once you have produced a web page, it is also a good idea to [[http://validator.w3.org/|validate it using the W3C HTML Validation Service]] to check for HTML errors. | |
