Introduction:
“City Search ” is a project on which the work of development was learnt and practicised by me with my team members Arpit Mittal, Apoorva Bansal, and Ashoutosh Sharma under the guidence of Mr Ravi Shankar Sharma. The target of the Project was to develop a website that provide an easy, fast, reliable and complete knowledge of The Jaipur City and its major locations, and we can see the detailed information about the major Landmarks anhd current and proposed activities related to Jaipur City and. And guide facility and many more with just a single click on “City Search.com”.
Any mobile user using this project is aimed at developing website that incorporates both location and every possible details, steering you towards the very best activities that your city has to offer. For the selected category, the website retrieves appropriate list of options for any location review. The website provides the full information (address, contact number and other information) for any selected option. User also has an option to debrief the selected option or expand the info from the website. The City Search is an online guide that provides information about Historic places, Forts, Garden and major Landmarks of the City and also categories of dining, entertainment, retail, travel, and professional services in cities. Here the end user would be a Mobile user as it’s an Internet Based technology; so that the user can finally implement all the needed operations in their own mobile device. The Mobile User should be able to search appropriate location. The Mobile User should be able to retrieve the very best activities for Jaipur city. The user can also be able to retrieve full information (address, contact number and other information) for the any selected option.
LET'S BREAK THIS DOWN A LITTLE FURTHER
HYPER
You may have heard the expression "hyper" in describing someone. In simplest terms, it means active, kind of "all over the place". The word "Hyper" as part of HTML is similar in context. It simply means that when you are on the internet using a browser such as Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer, you can in fact, go "all over the place". In browsing through the World Wide Web (WWW), if you see something you like, you can go immediately to it. There is no set order to do things in. Hyper is the opposite of "linear". Linear means that there is a certain order you must follow such as "you must do this before you can do that". Programming languages such as BASIC and FORTRAN are linear. HTML does not hold to that and allows you to jump to any page on the WWW and at any time. Thus the word HYPER refers to the idea that the text in HTML is not linear.
TEXT
We are working with text only files. More on that in Lesson Two.
MARKUP
"Markup" comes from the fact that in order to create web pages, we will be typing in the text and then "marking up" the text. If you are familiar with WordPerfect, consider this example. Suppose you just typed a document in WordPerfect. If you choose REVEAL CODES from the VIEW menu, the monitor screen or Window splits into two parts. The top half of the screen shows the text you typed in and the bottom half shows the same text but with the words marked up with "codes" or "tags". For example, suppose you typed the following three lines in WordPerfect:
Hi, this is bold
This is italics
DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF HTML
HTML 1.0
The original version of HTML was HTML 1.0. It had very limited features which greatly limited what you could do in designing your web pages.
HTML 2.0
HTML 2.0 then arrived and included all the features of HTML 1.0 plus several new features for web page design. Until January, 1997, HTML 2.0 was the standard in web page design.
HTML 3.0
HTML 2.0 served its purpose very well, but many people designing web pages (called HTML authors or webmasters) wanted more control over their web pages and more ways to mark up their text and enhance the appearance of their websites. Netscape, the leading browser at that time, introduced new tags and attributes called the Netscape Extension Tags. Other browsers tried to duplicate them but Netscape did not fully specify their new tags and so these extension tags did not work in most other browsers. It led to considerable confusion and problems when HTML authors used these tags and attributes and then saw that they didn't work as expected in other browsers.
At about that time, an HTML working group, led by Dave Raggett, introduced the HTML 3.0 draft which included many new and useful enhancements to HTML. However, most browsers only implemented a few elements from this draft. The phrase "HTML 3.0 enhanced" quickly became popular on the web but it more often than not referred to documents containing browser specific tags (discussed below in "The Netscape Problem" section), instead of referring to documents adhering to the HTML 3.0 draft. This was one of the reasons why the draft was abandoned. HTML 3.0 is now an expired draft. Another reason why HTML 3.0 did not make it was because it was so "big". Future versions were now to be introduced in a more "modular" way so that browsers can implement them modular by modular or bit by bit.
HTML 3.2 (WILBUR)
As more browser-specific tags were introduced, it became obvious that a new standard was needed. For this reason, the Word Wide Web Consortium (W3C), founded in 1994 to develop common standards for the evolution of the World Wide Web, drafted the WILBUR standard, which later became known as HTML 3.2. HTML 3.2 captures the recommended practice as of early 1996 and became the official standard in January, 1997. Most, if not all, popular browsers in use today fully support HTML 3.2.
