I hand code all my HTML and adhere to the strict and cleaner version known as EXtensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML).
All of my design elements are created by Cascasding Style Sheets and kept in external files. Note my use of CSS to create a layout without the use of tables.
PHP is a powerful server-side scripting language that can do many things to create dynamic and interactive web pages. Among its uses are parsing backend databases and XML.
MySQL is a backend database that can store and retrieve a nearly infinite amount of text information. It is great for storing user information and creating dynamic content.
JavaScript adds an enormous amount of funtionality to web pages. It is the primary tool used in AJAX and DOM Scripting. JavaScript is used to dynamically display these very definitions.
AJAX, Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, uses JavaScript and HTTP requests to change parts of a web page without the need to reload the entire page. This makes for faster dynamic pages.
The Document Object Model allows javascripts to dynamically change and update web pages' content and styles.
XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language. This universally accepted script allows storage of data that can be easily read and delivered to applications and web sites.
