The Relative Importance of Web Development

martinig

If you follow the evolution of software development on Internet, you
may have the impression that every new development is Web based and
that the main areas of concern are whether you should develop new
application with Ruby on Rail or if you should choose Flash rather
than Ajax for the interface. However, if you ask developers, you may
find that the Web is not as ubiquitous in their work as you may think.

Even if 66% of the participants develop the majority of their new
applications with a browser as the interface, there is still a large
portion of developers that are working today for operating contexts
that are outside the Web world, like embedded software or Windows
applications.

Relative and Absolute Address

by: Nick K. | last post by:

I recently began maintenance work on a production web server that is located in the root directory of a web server. I moved this into a sub web on my local web server in order to do work on it. I found that there is an include file that references images: <img src = "/images/Header.gif" What worked correctly on the production server breaks on mine because of the absolute address "/images". I removed the absolute address and changed...

Relative Absolute Position

by: Ken Kast | last post by:

Here's my situation. I have a statically positioned table that has an image in a cell. I also have some layers, defined by absolute-positioned DIVs for some animation. Everything works until I scroll/resize. Then the image "moves" on the screen but the animation doesn't. The net effect is that their relative positioning changes. I'd like to have it be that they would stay in the same relative position. I want to keep the image as an...

Hi How do I refernece links so that they work on both my development and live servers? On my development machine, my web site exists in a virtual directory so a relative link such as '/images/image1.gif' that works on my live server doesn't work (because it points back to the root of my website, not that of my virtual directory)?

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
