Authoring of web materials
Several different approaches to web authoring can be identified
Writing the document in a markup language
HTML - low level and non-extensible
XML - requires subsequent transformations or specification of the document rendering
Using a visual tool - a structure editor on top of the markup language
Good for low skill users
Difficult to manage large and complex materials
Transforming the document from another format
Will often result in a web edition of a paper document
Difficult to make effective use of the WWW's hypertext potentials
Writing the document in a programming language
Potentially good for users with programming skills
To be explored in this lecture
