HTML5 & CSS3



HTML5

You may well ask: “How can I start using HTML5 if older browsers don’t support it? HTML5 is not one big thing; it is a collection of individual features. 
You may think of HTML as tags and angle brackets. That’s an important part of it, but it’s not the whole story. The HTML5 specification also defines how those angle brackets interact with JavaScript, through the Document Object Model (DOM).
HTML5 builds on that success of HTML4.
HTML5 supports all the form controls from HTML 4, but it also includes new input controls. 
The doctype should already be on the first line of every HTML page. Previous versions of HTML defined a lot of doctypes, and choosing the right one could be tricky. In HTML5, there is only one doctype:
<!DOCTYPE html>

 HTML5 is here to stay

Every element, every attribute, every feature of HTML that you’ve ever used — someone created them, decided how they should work, and wrote it all down.

CSS3

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in amarkup language. While most often used to change the style of web pages and user interfaces written in HTML and XHTML, the language can be applied to any kind of XML document, including plain XMLSVG and XUL. Along with HTML and JavaScript, CSS is a cornerstone technology used by most websites to create visually engaging webpages, user interfaces for web applications, and user interfaces for many mobile applications.
CSS 3 is divided into several separate documents called "modules". Each module adds new capabilities or extends features defined in CSS 2, preserving backward compatibility.

Unified Modeling Language- (UML)

Brief Background UML is a language for specifying,visualizing ,documenting and constructing the artifacts of software systems,as well as for business modeling and other non-software systems. UML has been developed by Grady  Booch, James Rumbaugh and Ivar Jacobson. Goals of UML are : To model systems using Object oriented concepts. To establish an explicit coupling to conceptual as well as executable artifacts To address the issues of scale inherent in complex , mission critical systems. To create a modeling language that can be used by humans as well as machines.  Understanding the thirteen diagrams of UML 2.x is an important part of understanding OO development. Although there is  far more to modeling than just the UML  the reality is the UML defines the standard modeling artifacts when it comes to object technology. There are three classifications of UML diagrams: Behavior diagrams . A type of diagram that depicts behavioral features of a ...

Javascript to validate Email Expression

Using  regular expressions  is probably the best way. Here's an example ( live demo ): function validateEmail ( email ) { var re = /^([\w-]+(?:\.[\w-]+)*)@((?:[\w-]+\.)*\w[\w-]{0,66})\.([a-z]{2,6}(?:\.[a-z]{2})?)$/ i ; return re . test ( email ); } But keep in mind that one should not rely only upon JavaScript validation. JavaScript can easily be disabled. This should be validated on the server side as well.

Local Area Networks LAN

Why use a LAN? The two basic reasons for developing a LAN are information sharing and resource sharing. Information sharing refers to business needs that require users to access the same data files ,exchange emails or search the internet for information. Resource sharing refers to one computer sharing a hardware device (for e.g a printer) or software package with other computers on the network. The main benefit of resource sharing is cost savings, while the main benefit  of information sharing is improved decision making. image courtesy Cray Networks Dedicated Server versus Peer-to-Peer Networks A dedicated server LAN has one computer that acts as the network server. It can connect with almost any other network,handle very large databases and use sophisticated LAN software. Moreover,high -end dedicated server LANs can be interconnected easily to form enterprise wide networks or in some cases replace the host mainframe central computer. Four common types of dedi...
