Used extensively by the U.S. Government during the American Civil War, 1861 – 1865. Morse Code was dots and dashes, or short signals and long signals. Still used today for few applications. The electronic signal standard of +/- 15 v. is still used in network interface cards today.

7 Domain Name What is an URL? http://www.wccweb.claudiajacques.org Uniform Resource Location – uniform way to locate a resource on the internet. The URL specifies the address of a file and every file on the Internet has a unique address. Web software, such as your browser, use the URL to retrieve a file from the computer on which it resides. Web Design Workshop

9 Domain Name What is Domain Name Registrar? Domain name registrar is an organization or commercial entity, accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) or by a national country code top-level domain (ccTLD) authority, to manage the reservation of Internet domain names in accordance with the guidelines of the designated domain name registries and offer such services to the public.top-level domain Until 1999, Network Solutions was the domain name registry for.com,. net and.org as well as the sole registrar.Network Solutions An end-user cannot directly register a domain and manage their domain information with ICANN. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_registrar Web Design Workshop

10 Domain Name Domain Name Registrar: Only the designated registrar may modify or delete information about a domain name. The competition that the SRS – Shared Registration System - created enables end users to choose from many registrars offering different services at varying prices. It is not unusual for an end user to switch registrars which invokes a domain transfer process governed by specific domain name transfer policies.domain transfer Examples of Domain Name Registrars: GoDaddy, eNom, Tucows, Network Solutions, Names4ever, etc. http://www.domaintools.com/internet-statistics/registrar-stats-2007.php http://www.domaintools.com/internet-statistics/registrar-stats-2007.php http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_registrar Web Design Workshop

11 Domain Name Domain Name Registry: Is a database of all domain names registered in a top-level domain. A registry operator, also called a Network Information Center (NIC), is the part of the Domain Name System (DNS) of the Internet that keeps the database of domain names, and generates the zone files which convert domain names to IP addresses. Domain names are managed under a hierarchy headed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), which manages the top of the DNS tree by administrating the data in the root name servers. Most Domain Name Registrars also offer Domain Name Registry. The allocated and assigned domain names are made available by registries by use of the WHOIS system and via their domain name servers.WHOIS Web Design Workshop

12 Domain Name To develop a web site you need: 1.A Domain Name Registrar to register a domain name Domain Name Registry (Domain Hosting). 2.A Web Hosting Provider/Server Provider to manage the communication of your domain name with the net. 3.Now a days the process is transparent if you contract a web hosting provider. (Remember that most companies offer both services at once when you host your site with them.) GoDaddy, Hostmonster, BlueHost, Names4Ever, Network Solutions, are some of the reliable hosting providers. 4.Last, but not least: you need to design your site. Confused? Web Design Workshop

17 HTML? HTML HTML = HyperText Markup Language is a text and image formatting language used by web browsers to dynamically format web pages. It consist of “tags” surrounded by angle brackets and is not considered a language per se. HyperText means text in the HTML document carries a link to a different location. Markup means that specific portions of a document are marked up to indicate how they should be displayed in the browser. Web Design I Hello World!. Web Design Workshop
