Dear students and teachers from CONALEP
Tamaulipas First of all I am pleased to greet you, I
know you are developing activities that strengthen
academic excellence and also that you are
developing innovative doings in your everyday with
the enthusiastic participation of teachers and with the aid from your directives.

In The State Development Plan 2011-2016 the state Governor Egidio


Torre Cant made it very clear that in the humane Tamaulipas that is needed
to be constructed and specifically in the strategy that is mentioned It is required
to achieve the formation of citizens with competences and knowledge for the
life and the development of the entity, through the establishment of a new
educational policy centered in learning and more clear still in the strategy
stated; 5.1.6 Impulse the teaching of English as a second Language in all the
academic levels.

This is why I am thankful with the Conalep in our State, whom by


presenting the pilot project Ingls Tcnico Especializado elaborated with the
enthusiastic participation of the State English Academy and the didactic
material presented, is a clear evidence of the effort that they are producing.

With high expectations I hope for the best relevant academic


achievements that after this project, once having been evaluated, can be
expanded and based on its impact can be presented to other levels.

I am sure that these didactic and academic materials constitute one of


the components of academic quality, since they will allow our students to have
the needed elements and competencies they require for a better performance in
their professional and personal lives.

Remember there are no achievements without effort. May you be very


successful.

Dr. Didoro Guerra Rodrguez


Education Secretary of Tamaulipas

The pilot Project Ingls Tcnico
Especializado was born with the purpose to
attend the line of action and the strategies
taken from The State Development Plan 2011-
2016 and from the State Education Plan 2011-
2016 in which the curricula is bassed in the
argument of: ingles para todos los estudiantes del nivel medio superior,
from here arises the commitment to accomplish this goal.

The participation of the State English Academy was decisive for the
achievement of the required academic materials that would be needed for the
starting date of such project, furthermore their participation was materialized by
designing 100 percent of the booklet that is now in your hands, they also
created a teacher guide booklet. This is why I strongly thank the Academy that
put in a great effort that is shown in these resources.

I want to ask the fifth semester students in the pilot group to optimize the
use of these materials that contain the minimum required to obtain the
competencies of the English program, as well as the program for Informatics but
in English.

For the success of this project we obviously depend on the English


teacher, directive personnel as far as the attention that will be offered to the
teacher, and especially to the students for their involvement; that will be
monitored in order to measure the advancement, the range achieved and the
learning acquired, which is why I hope that everyone puts in their strongest
effort to give great results.

I wish you a great success in the new adventure and may we achieve
this highly important purpose.

INTRODUCTION

What is ?

HTML is a language for describing web pages.

HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language


HTML is a markup language
A markup language is a set of markup tags
The tags describe document content
HTML documents contain HTML tags and plain text
HTML documents are also called web pages

Tags

HTML markup tags are usually called HTML tags

HTML tags are keywords (tag names) surrounded by angle


brackets like <html>
HTML tags normally come in pairs like <b> and </b>
The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag
The end tag is written like the start tag, with a forward slash before the
tag name
Start and end tags are also called opening tags and closing tags

Example Explained

The !DOCTYPE declaration defines the document type


The text between <html> and </html> describes the web page
The text between <body> and </body> is the visible page content
The text between <h1> and </h1> is displayed as a heading
The text between <p> and </p> is displayed as a paragraph

English State Academy 9|Page


Elements

"HTML tags" and "HTML elements" are often used to describe the same thing.

But strictly speaking, an HTML element is everything between the start tag and
the end tag, including the tags:

Web Browsers

The purpose of a web browser (such as


Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox,
Safari) is to read HTML documents and
display them as web pages.

The browser does not display the HTML


tags, but uses the tags to determine how
the content of the HTML page is to be
presented/displayed to the user:

Page Structure

Below is a visualization of an HTML page structure:

English State Academy 10 | P a g e


EDITORS

Writing Using Notepad or TextEdit

HTML can be edited by using a professional HTML editor like:

Adobe Dreamweaver
Microsoft Expression Web
CoffeeCup HTML Editor

However, for learning HTML we recommend a text editor like Notepad (PC) or
TextEdit (Mac). We believe using a simple text editor is a good way to learn
HTML. Follow the 4 steps below to create your first web page with Notepad.

Step 1: Start Notepad

To start Notepad go to:

Start All Programs Accessories Notepad

Step 2: Edit Your HTML with Notepad

Type your HTML code into your Notepad:

Step 3: Save Your HTML

Select Save as.. in Notepad's file menu. When you save an HTML file,
you can use either the .htm or the .html file extension. There is no
difference; it is entirely up to you.

Step 4: Run the HTML in Your Browser

Start your web browser and open your html file from
the File, Open menu, or just browse the folder and double-click your
HTML file.

The result should look much like this:

English State Academy 11 | P a g e


Basic - 4 Examples

Don't worry if the examples use tags you have not learned. You will learn about
them in the next chapters.

Headings

HTML headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6>


tags.

Example
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<h2>This is a heading</h2>
<h3>This is a heading</h3>

Paragraphs

HTML paragraphs are defined with the <p> tag.

Links

HTML links are defined with the <a> tag.

Example
<a href="http://www.w3schools.com">This is a link</a>

English State Academy 12 | P a g e


Note: The link address is specified in the href attribute. (You will learn about
attributes in a later chapter of this tutorial).

Images
HTML images are defined with the <img> tag.

Example

Note: The filename and the size of the image are provided as attributes.

English State Academy 13 | P a g e


ELEMENTS

Element Syntax
An HTML element starts with a start tag / opening tag
An HTML element ends with an end tag / closing tag
The element content is everything between the start and the end tag
Some HTML elements have empty content
Most HTML elements can have attributes

Tip: You will learn about attributes in the next chapter.

Nested Elements
Most HTML elements can be nested (can contain other HTML elements). HTML documents
consist of nested HTML elements.

HTML Document Example

The example above contains 3 HTML elements.

The <p> element:


The <p> element defines a paragraph in the HTML document.
The element has a start tag <p> and an end tag </p>.
The <body> element:
The <body> element defines the body of the HTML document.
The element has a start tag <body> and an end tag </body>.
The <html> element:
The <html> element defines the whole HTML document.
The element has a start tag <html> and an end tag </html>.
The element content is another HTML element (the body element).

Empty Elements
HTML elements with no content are called empty elements. <br> is an empty element without a
closing tag (the <br> tag defines a line break).

ATTRIBUTES

Attributes
HTML elements can have attributes
Attributes provide additional information about an element
Attributes are always specified in the start tag
Attributes come in name/value pairs like: name="value"

Attribute Example
HTML links are defined with the <a> tag. The link address is specified in the href attribute:

Example

Always Quote Attribute Values


Attribute values should always be enclosed in quotes.

Double style quotes are the most common, but single style quotes are also allowed.

Tip: In some rare situations, when the attribute value itself contains quotes, it is
necessary to use single quotes: name='John "ShotGun" Nelson'

English State Academy 16 | P a g e


HEADINGS

Headings
Headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags. <h1> defines the most important heading.
<h6> defines the last important heading.

Example

Note: Browsers automatically add some empty space (a margin) before and after each heading.

Headings Are Important


Use HTML headings for headings only. Don't use headings to make text BIG or bold.

Search engines use your headings to index the structure and content of your web pages. Since
users may skim your pages by its headings, it is important to use headings to show the
document structure.

H1 headings should be used as main headings, followed by H2 headings, then the less
important H3 headings, and so on.

English State Academy 17 | P a g e


LINES

Lines
The <hr> tag creates a horizontal line in an HTML page. The hr element can be used to
separate content:

Example

English State Academy 18 | P a g e


For designers

There are two common mistakes designers do: Using the tags <p>, <br> y
<hr> and write the HTML code in order to write build up a text.

English State Academy 19 | P a g e


I. - Watch the following video and listen carefully to the information. Take notes
for answering the question below. Basic HTML Tutorial.

TEXT FORMATTING

This text is bold


This text is italic
This is computer output
This is subscript and superscript

Formatting Tags
HTML uses tags like <b> and <i> for formatting output, like bold or italic text. These HTML tags
are called formatting tags (look at the bottom of this page for a complete reference).

Often <strong> renders as <b>, and <em> renders as <i>.

However, there is a difference in the meaning of these tags:

<b> or <i> defines bold or italic text only.

<strong> or <em> means that you want the text to be rendered in a way that
the user understands as "important". Today, all major browsers render strong
as bold and em as italics. However, if a browser one day wants to make a
text highlighted with the strong feature, it might be cursive for example and
not bold!

English State Academy 20 | P a g e


Write in the blank the tag that is needed in order to modify the text as it
looks

Always know when a stage comes to an end. Closing cycles, shutting doors,

finishing chapters, it doesnt matter the name we give it, what it matters is to

leave in the past the moments of life that are over.

Text Formatting Tags


Tag Description

<b> Defines bold text

<em> Defines emphasized text

<i> Defines a part of text in an alternate voice or mood

<small> Defines smaller text

<strong> Defines important text

<sub> Defines subscripted text

<sup> Defines superscripted text

<i> Defines italic text

<u> Defines underline text

English State Academy 21 | P a g e


"Computer Output" Tags
Tag Description

<code> Defines computer code text

<kbd> Defines keyboard text

<samp> Defines sample computer code

<pre> Defines preformatted text

Citations, Quotations, and Definition Tags


Tag Description

<abbr> Defines an abbreviation or acronym

<address> Defines contact information for the author/owner of a document

<bdo> Defines the text direction

<blockquote> Defines a section that is quoted from another source

<q> Defines an inline (short) quotation

<cite> Defines the title of a work

<dfn> Defines a definition term

English State Academy 22 | P a g e


LINKS

Links are found in nearly all Web pages. Links allow users to click their way
from page to page.

Hyperlinks (Links)
The HTML <a> tag defines a hyperlink.

A hyperlink (or link) is a word, group of words, or image that you can click on to jump to
another document.

When you move the cursor over a link in a Web page, the arrow will turn into a little hand.

The most important attribute of the <a> element is the href attribute, which indicates the links
destination.

By default, links will appear as follows in all browsers:

An unvisited link is underlined and blue


A visited link is underlined and purple
An active link is underlined and red

Link Syntax
The HTML code for a link is simple. It looks like this:

<a href="url">Link text</a>

The href attribute specifies the destination of a link.

Example

Tip: The "Link text" doesn't have to be text. It can be an image or any other HTML element.

English State Academy 23 | P a g e


Links - The target Attribute
The target attribute specifies where to open the linked document. The example below will open
the linked document in a new browser window or a new tab:

Example

Links - The id Attribute


The id attribute can be used to create a bookmark inside a HTML document.

Tip: Bookmarks are not displayed in any special way. They are invisible to the reader.

Example

An anchor with an id inside an HTML document:

<a id="tips">Useful Tips Section</a>

Create a link to the "Useful Tips Section" inside the same document:

<a href="#tips">Visit the Useful Tips Section</a>

Or, create a link to the "Useful Tips Section" from another page:

<a href="http://www.w3schools.com/html_links.htm#tips">

Visit the Useful Tips Section

</a>

English State Academy 24 | P a g e


Write the HTML code necessary to create a link from a web page to the
Iowa State University home page (http://www.iastate.edu).

_________________________________________________

A directory called "WWW "contains 2 subdirectories (folders), called


"trees" and "images." Each subdirectory contains several files. Which of the
following is the proper way to embed the "elmleaf.gif" image within the elm.html
document?

1. <A HREF="../images/elmleaf.gif">click here</A>


2. <A HREF="images/elmleaf.gif">click here</A>
3. <AHREF="images/elmleaf.gif">click here</A>
4. <IMG SRC="../images/elmleaf.gif">
5. <IMG SRC="images/elmleaf.gif">
6. <A HREF="mailto:elmleaf.gif">

In the above example, above write the HTML code that would create a
link in "elm.html" which being clicked, would replace the display in the web
browser with the "elmleaf.gif" image.

_______________________________________________

English State Academy 25 | P a g e


IMAGES

Images - The <img> Tag and the Src Attribute


In HTML, images are defined with the <img> tag.

The <img> tag is empty, which means that it contains attributes only, and has no closing tag.

To display an image on a page, you need to use the src attribute. Src stands for "source". The
value of the src attribute is the URL of the image you want to display.

Syntax for defining an image:

The browser displays the image where


the <img> tag occurs in the document. If
you put an image tag between two
paragraphs, the browser shows the first
paragraph, then the image, and then the
second paragraph.

Images - The Alt Attribute


The required alt attribute specifies an alternate text for an image, if the image cannot be
displayed.

The value of the alt attribute is an author-defined text:

The alt attribute provides alternative information for an image if a user for some reason cannot
view it (because of slow connection, an error in the src attribute, or if the user uses a screen
reader).

Images - Set Height and Width of an Image


The height and width attributes are used to specify the height and width of an image.

English State Academy 26 | P a g e


The attribute values are specified in pixels by default:

Tip: It is a good practice to specify both the height and width attributes for an image. If these
attributes are set, the space required for the image is reserved when the page is loaded.
However, without these attributes, the browser does not know the size of the image. The effect
will be that the page layout will change during loading (while the images load).

Basic Notes - Useful Tips


Note: If an HTML file contains ten images - eleven files are required to display the page right.
Loading images takes time, so my best advice is: Use images carefully.

LISTS

The most common HTML lists are ordered and unordered lists:

Lists
An ordered list: An unordered list:
1. The first list item List item
2. The second list item List item
3. The third list item List tem

Unordered Lists

An unordered list starts with the <ul>


tag. Each list item starts with the <li>
tag.

The list items are marked with bullets


(typically small black circles) and how
the HTML code above looks in a
browser:

Ordered Lists

An ordered list starts with the <ol> tag.


Each list item starts with the <li> tag.

Description Lists

A description list is a list of terms/names,


with a description of each term/name.

The <dl> tag defines a description list.

The <dl> tag is used in conjunction with


<dt> (defines terms/names) and <dd>
(describes each term/name):

TABLES

Tables
Tables are defined with the <table> tag.

A table is divided into rows (with the <tr> tag), and each row is divided into data cells (with the
<td> tag). td stands for "table data," and holds the content of a data cell. A <td> tag can contain
text, links, images, lists, forms, other tables, etc.

How the HTML code above looks in a browser:

COLUMN #1
COLUMN #2
COLUMN #3

Tables and the Border Attribute


If you do not specify a border attribute, the table will be displayed without borders. Sometimes
this can be useful, but most of the time, we want the borders to show.

To display a table with borders, specify the border attribute:

English State Academy 33 | P a g e


Table Headers
Header information in a table is defined with the <th> tag. All major browsers display the text in
the <th> element as bold and centered.

Tables are one of the most useful tools for page layout that you will find. One of
the most common questions I hear is "How can I put some text next to an
image?" One simple solution is a table...

Here is the table with the borders turned on...

Fresh Fruits

It has long been known that a


diet that includes at least a
few servings of fresh fruit

FORMS AND INPUT

Forms
HTML forms are used to pass data to a server. An HTML form can contain input elements like
text fields, checkboxes, radio-buttons, submit buttons and more. A form can also contain select
lists, textarea, fieldset, legend, and label elements.

The <form> tag is used to create an HTML form:

<form> input elements </form>

Forms - The Input Element


The most important form element is the <input> element. The <input> element is used to select
user information. An <input> element can vary in many ways, depending on the type attribute.
An <input> element can be of type text field, checkbox, password, radio button, submit button,
and more.

The most common input types are described below.

Text Fields
<input type="text"> defines a one-line input field that a user can enter text into:

<form>
First name: <input type="text" name="firstname"><br>
Last name: <input type="text" name="lastname">
</form>

How the HTML code above looks in a browser:

First name:

Last name:

Note: The form itself is not visible. Also note that the default width of a text field is 20
characters.

English State Academy 36 | P a g e


Password Field
<input type="password"> defines a password field:

<form> Password: <input type="password" name="pwd"> </form>

How the HTML code above looks in a browser:

Password:

Note: The characters in a password field are masked (shown as asterisks or circles).

Radio Buttons
<input type="radio"> defines a radio button. Radio buttons let a user select ONLY ONE of a
limited number of choices:

<form>
<input type="radio" name="sex" value="male">Male<br>
<input type="radio" name="sex" value="female">Female
</form>

How the HTML code above looks in a browser:

Male

Female

Checkboxes
<input type="checkbox"> defines a checkbox. Checkboxes let a user select ZERO or MORE
options of a limited number of choices.

<form>
<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle" value="Bike">I have a bike<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle" value="Car">I have a car
</form>

How the HTML code above looks in a browser:

I have a bike

I have a car

Submit Button
<input type="submit"> defines a submit button.

English State Academy 37 | P a g e


A submit button is used to send form data to a server. The data is sent to the page specified in
the form's action attribute. The file defined in the action attribute usually does something with
the received input:

<form name="input" action="html_form_action.asp" method="get">


Username: <input type="text" name="user">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

How the HTML code above looks in a browser:

Submit
Username:

If you type some characters in the text field above, and click the "Submit" button, the browser
will send your input to a page called "html_form_action.asp". The page will show you the
received input.

Form Tags
New : New tags in HTML5.

Tag Description

<form> Defines an HTML form for user input

<input> Defines an input control

<textarea> Defines a multiline input control (text area)

<label> Defines a label for an <input> element

<fieldset> Groups related elements in a form

<select> Defines a drop-down list

<optgroup> Defines a group of related options in a drop-down list

<option> Defines an option in a drop-down list

<button> Defines a clickable button

<datalist>New Specifies a list of pre-defined options for input controls

<keygen>New Defines a key-pair generator field (for forms)

<output>New Defines the result of a calculation

Grammar in Context

In teams of four members study and discuss the following information and then
answer the examples below.
G.C. 8.1,8.2 & 8.3

POSITIVE AGREEMENT

To express positive agreement we use: SO + Auxiliary* + Subject


Subject Auxiliary
If there is no auxiliary in the sentence, we use DO or Does (Depending on the I
subject): You Do
We
They
I live in London and so does Susan = I live in London and Susan lives in
He Does
London She
You work in McAllen and so do I = You work in McAllen and I work in It.
McAllen.

If the principal verb is the verb to be, we use it as auxiliary. Subject Auxiliary
I am
He is
Petes web page is gorgeous and so is yours. She
HTML is a language to build up web pages and so is CSS. it
You are
We
They
If the principal verb is in past, we use it as the auxiliary Did.

Tom designed a new web page last year and so did I.


I learned three new tags and so did Tom

Note
Special verbs that never use Do are: have, can, could, will, would, shall,
should, may, might. These verbs are used as the auxiliary.

I can speak English and so can my sister.


Peter will take a web page course next year and so will his sister.

English State Academy 39 | P a g e


Colloquial We can use SUBJECT + TOO for all the sentences.

I like web pages design and my sister too.


I can design a web page and my brother too.

NEGATIVE AGREEMENT

To express negative agreement we use: NEITHER + Auxiliary + Subject

Note
The auxiliary will follow the same rules as the ones we use them with So.
NEITHER is a negative word so it is used with an affirmative verb form (we can't have a double
negative in a sentence).

I dont know how to use HTML and neither does Mike.


Tom cant design a web page and neither can I.
George isnt a good web designer and neither are Pete and Larry.

Colloquial Me neither (we can only use it with the subject "Me", but not with other subjects)

Tom doesnt like school and me neither.

web page to other pages, files, etc. Relative links look like this /~ahetting/htmlprimer.html. They consist
of telling the link where to find what it is looking for, but leave out the server that the page is attached
to because the original page and the one being sought after are in the same directory(folder or server).
The same link in absolute link format would look like this

English State Academy 52 | P a g e


http:/serendip.brynmawr.edu/~ahetting/htmlprimer.html. They accommplish the same goal, but each
has it's advantages and disadvantages. If you move a folder with web pages with relative links to a new
server, then nothing will happen and all the links will remain stable. But if you were to only move one of
those pages, then it's links would be broken because the other pages would be in a differnt
directory(folder or server). Absolute links have the opposite effect, if you move one file then it's links
will be fine.

Site or WEB-Site: This term is often used to mean "web page," but there is supposed to be a difference.
A web page is a single entity, one URL, one file that you might find on the Web. A "site," properly
speaking, is an location or gathering or center for a bunch of related pages linked to from that site. For
example, the site for the present tutorial is the top-level page "Internet Resources."

Style sheet: A style sheet includes styling syntax that dictates how your web page will look. Style sheets
are very useful as they help web developers create uniform presentation of web pages.

Syntax: Syntax basically refers to the rules a computer language uses to perform a task. Without syntax,
a computer language would not be functional or useful at all. HTML syntax dictates what and how a web
page will display.

Syntax error: A syntax error basically refers to a situation in which the rules (or a rule) of the computer
language are (is) broken. In HTML, depending on the syntax error you produce, the web page may look
completely different than what you had intended.

Tags: Are the commands that give HTML documents their functionality. They consist of commands
placed within < and >. Some tags work by placing a start and stop tag at each end of the desired text,
such as below <big>.This makes the text bigger <big>.The stop tags are often the same as the start with
the addition of "/" at the beginning of the stop tag.

TITLE (of a document): The official title of a document from the "meta" field called title. It is what
appears in the top bar of the window when you display the document and it is the title that appears in
search engine results. The "meta" field called title is not mandatory in HTML coding. Sometimes you
retrieve a document with "No Title" as its supposed title; this is caused when the meta-title field is left
blank.

URL: Uniform Resource Locator. The unique address of any Web document. May be keyed in a browser's
OPEN or LOCATION / GO TO box to retrieve a document. There is a logic the layout of a URL:

Anatomy of a URL:
Type of file Domain name (computer Path or directory on the Name of file, and its file
file is on and its location computer to this file extension (usually ending
on the Internet) in .html or .htm)

http:// www.lib.berkeley.edu/ TeachingLib/Guides/Internet/ FindInfo.html

computer or from any other computer connected to the internet.

G.C. 4.4 and 4.5

Wireless LAN Standards


- 802.11a
IEEE 802.11 - Standard for wireless networks with line of sight. It is applied to wireless LANs
and provides 1 or 2 Mbps transmission in the 2.4 GHz band using any frequency jumps the
spread spectrum (FHSS) or direct sequence spectrum (DSSS).
IEEE 802.11 - Standard than 802.11b, allowing maximum theoretical speeds of up to 54 Mbps ,
relying on the 5GHz band . In turn, eliminates the problem of multiple interference that exist in
the band of 2.4 GHz (microwave ovens, digital telephones DECT, Bluetooth).
- 802.11b
IEEE 802.11b - An extension to 802.11 to provide 11 Mbps using DSSS, also commonly known
as Wi - Fi (Wireless Fidelity): A term promulgated by the WECA registered to certify IEEE
802.11b products able to interoperate with other manufacturers. Its the standard most
commonly used in wireless communities.
802.11g
IEEE 802.11g - Uses the 2.4 GHz band , but allows it to transmit on theoretical speeds of 54
Mbps is achieved by changing the mode of signal modulation , from ' Complementary Code
Keying ' a ' Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing ' . Thus, instead of having to purchase
new wireless cards, suffice to change its internal firmware.
- 802.11n
IEEE 802.11n. - A proposed amendment to the IEEE 802.11-2007 standard to significantly
improve network performance beyond previous standards, such as 802.11b and 802.11g, with
a significant increase in the maximum transmission speed of 54 mbps at a maximum of 600
mbps physical layer currently supports 300Mbps, using two spatial streams on a channel of 40
MHz Depending on the environment, this can result in user perceived performance of
100Mbps.It can be useful broadcast or transmition of radio and TV On line.

Wireless Security. Security comprises IEEE 802.11 authentication and encryption. Encryption is used to
encrypt or scramble data from wireless frames before being sent to the wireless network. With
authentication requirements, wireless clients authenticate themselves before they are allowed to join
the wireless network.
Encryption. The following types are available for use encryption with 802.11:
WEP Encryption: For encryption of wireless data, the original 802.11 standard defined wired equivalent
privacy (WEP). Due to the nature of wireless networks, protecting the physical access to the network is
difficult. Unlike a wired network which requires a direct physical connection, it is possible that any user
within range of a wireless access point or a wireless client can send and receive frames, as well as listen
to other frames sent, so that interception and eavesdropping remote wireless frames are very simple.
WEP uses a shared secret key to encrypt the sending node data. The receiving node uses the same WEP
key to decrypt the data. For infrastructure mode, the WEP key must be configured on the wireless
access point and all wireless clients. For ad hoc mode, the WEP key must be configured on all wireless
clients.
Choosing a WEP key
The WEP key should be a random sequence of keyboard characters (uppercase and lowercase letters,
numbers and punctuation marks) or hexadecimal digits (numbers 0 through 9 and letters A to F). The
more random WEP key, the more secure use.
WPA Encryption: IEEE 802.11i is a new standard that specifies security improvements in wireless local
networks.
With WPA, encryption is performed using TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol temporary), which
replaces WEP for stronger encryption algorithm. Unlike WEP, TKIP provides the determination of a
single unicast encryption key for each authentication startup and synchronized change of the unicast
encryption key for each frame. Because TKIP keys are automatically determined, it is not necessary to
configure an encryption key for WPA.
WPA2 Encryption: WPA2 is a product certification that the Wi-Fi Alliance that certifies wireless
devices are compatible with the 802.11i standard. WPA2 supports the additional mandatory security
features of the 802.11i standard that are not included for products that support WPA. With WPA2,
encryption is performed using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), which also replaces WEP for
stronger encryption algorithm. As for WPA TKIP, AES provides the determination of an encryption key
unique starting unicast for each authentication and synchronized change of unicast encryption key for
each frame.

WLAN GLOSSARY

From 802.11a to 802.11m and beyond: How much do you know about essential wireless LAN
terminology? Our handy WLAN glossary provides concise definitions with links to more complete
explanations and further information. Want to test your knowledge? Try our WLAN quiz .

802.11: an evolving family of specifications for wireless LANs, developed by a working group of the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers(IEEE). 802.11 standards use the Ethernet protocol and
CSMA/CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) for path sharing.

802.11a: provides specifications for wireless ATM systems. 802.11a is also used in wireless hubs.
Networks using 802.11a operate at radio frequencies between 5.725 GHz and 5.850 GHz. The
specification uses a modulation scheme known as orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)
that is especially well suited to use in office settings.

802.11b: WLAN standard often called Wi-Fi; backward compatible with 802.11. Instead of the phase-
shift keying (PSK) modulation method historically used in 802.11 standards, 802.11b uses
complementary code keying (CCK), which allows higher data speeds and is less susceptible to multipath-
propagation interference.

802.11d: a wireless network communications specification for use in countries where systems using
other standards in the 802.11 family are not allowed to operate. Configuration can be fine-tuned at the
Media Access Control layer (MAC layer) level to comply with the rules of the country or district in which
the network is to be used. Rules subject to variation include allowed frequencies, allowed power levels,
and allowed signal bandwidth. 802.11d facilitates global roaming.

802.11e: a proposed adaptation to the 802.11a and 802.11b specifications that enhances the 802.11
Media Access Control layer (MAC layer) with a coordinated time division multiple access (TDMA)
construct, and adds error-correcting mechanisms for delay-sensitive applications such as voice and
video. The 802.11e specification provides seamless interoperability between business, home, and public
environments such as airports and hotels and offers all subscribers high-speed Internet access with full-
motion video, high-fidelity audio, and Voice over IP (VoIP).

802.11g: offers transmission over relatively short distances at up to 54 megabits per second (Mbps),
compared with the 11 Mbps theoretical maximum of 802.11b. 802.11g employs orthogonal frequency
division multiplexing (OFDM), the modulation scheme used in 802.11a, to obtain higher data speed.
Computers or terminals set up for 802.11g can fall back to speeds of 11 Mbps, so that 802.11b and
802.11g devices can be compatible within a single network.

802.11h: intended to resolve interference issues introduced by the use of 802.11a in some locations,
particularly with military radar systems and medical devices. Dynamic frequency selection (DFS) detects
the presence of other devices on a channel and automatically switches the network to another channel
if and when such signals are detected. Transmit power control (TPC) reduces the radio-frequency (RF)
output power of each network transmitter to a level that minimizes the risk of interference.

802.11i: provides improved encryption for networks that use 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g standards.
Requires new encryption key protocols, known as Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES). Other features include key caching, which facilitates fast reconnection to the

English State Academy 67 | P a g e


server for users who have temporarily gone offline, and pre-authentication, which allows fast roaming
and is ideal for use with advanced applications such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).

802.11j: proposed addition to the 802.11 family of standards that incorporates Japanese regulatory
extensions to 802.11a; the main intent is to add channels in the radio-frequency (RF) band of 4.9 GHz to
5.0 GHz. WLANs using 802.11j will provide for speeds of up to 54 Mbps, and will employ orthogonal
frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The specification will define how Japanese 802.11 family
WLANs and other wireless systems, particularly HiperLAN2 networks, can operate in geographic
proximity without mutual interference.

802.11k: proposed standard for how a WLAN should perform channel selection, roaming, and transmit
power control (TPC) in order to optimize network performance. In a network conforming to 802.11k, if
the access point (AP) having the strongest signal is loaded to capacity, a wireless device is connected to
one of the underutilized APs. Even though the signal may be weaker, the overall throughput is greater
because more efficient use is made of the network resources.

802.11m: an initiative to perform editorial maintenance, corrections, improvements, clarifications, and


interpretations relevant to documentation for 802.11 family specifications. 802.11m also refers to the
set of maintenance releases itself.

802.1X: standard designed to enhance 802.11 WLAN security. 802.1X provides an authentication
framework, allowing a user to be authenticated by a central authority. The actual algorithm that is used
to determine whether a user is authentic is left open and multiple algorithms are possible.

Access point (AP): a station that transmits and receives data (sometimes referred to as a transceiver).
An access point connects users to other users within the network and also can serve as the point of
interconnection between the WLAN and a fixed wire network. The number of access points a WLAN
needs is determined by the number of users and the size of the network.

Access point mapping (also called war driving): the act of locating and possibly exploiting connections to
WLANs while driving around a city or elsewhere. To do war driving, you need a vehicle, a computer
(which can be a laptop), a wireless Ethernet card set to work in promiscuous mode, and some kind of an
antenna which can be mounted on top of or positioned inside the car. Because a WLAN may have a
range that extends beyond an office building, an outside user may be able to intrude into the network,
obtain a free Internet connection, and possibly gain access to company records and other resources.

Ad-hoc network : a LAN or other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary plug-in
connections, in which some of the network devices are part of the network only for the duration of a
communications session or, in the case of mobile or portable devices, while in some close proximity to
the rest of the network.

Antenna: a specialized transducer that converts radio-frequency (RF) fields into alternating current (AC)
or vice-versa. There are two basic types: the receiving antenna, which intercepts RF energy and delivers
AC to electronic equipment, and the transmitting antenna, which is fed with AC from electronic
equipment and generates an RF field.

Digital pulse wireless: (see also: ultra wideband or UWB) is a wireless technology for transmitting large
amounts of digital data over a wide spectrum of frequency bands with very low power for a short

English State Academy 68 | P a g e


distance. Ultra wideband radio can carry a huge amount of data over a distance up to 230 feet at very
low power (less than 0.5 milliwatts), and has the ability to carry signals through doors and other
obstacles that tend to reflect signals at more limited bandwidths and a higher power.

Evil twin: a home-made wireless access point that masquerades as a legitimate one to gather personal
or corporate information without the end-user's knowledge. It's fairly easy for an attacker to create an
evil twin by simply using a laptop, a wireless card and some readily-available software. The attacker
positions himself in the vicinity of a legitimate Wi-Fi access point and lets his computer discover what
name and radio frequency the legitimate access point uses. He then sends out his own radio signal,
using the same name.

Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP): authentication protocol for wireless networks that expands
on methods used by the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), a protocol often used when connecting a
computer to the Internet. EAP can support multiple authentication mechanisms, such as token cards,
smart cards, certificates, one-time passwords, and public key encryption authentication.

Fixed wireless: wireless devices or systems in fixed locations such as homes and offices. Fixed wireless
devices usually derive their electrical power from the utility mains, unlike mobile wireless or portable
wireless which tend to be battery-powered. Although mobile and portable systems can be used in fixed
locations, efficiency and bandwidth are compromised compared with fixed systems.

HiperLAN: WLAN communication standards primarily used in European countries. There are two
specifications: HiperLAN/1 and HiperLAN/2. Both have been adopted by the European
Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). The HiperLAN standards provide features and
capabilities similar to 802.11. HiperLAN/1 provides communications at up to 20 Mbps in the 5-GHz range
of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum.

Hot spot: (see also access point) a WLAN node that provides Internet connection and virtual private
network (VPN) access from a given location. A business traveller, for example, with a laptop equipped
for Wi-Fi can look up a local hot spot, contact it, and get connected through its network to reach the
Internet and their own company remotely with a secure connection. Increasingly, public places, such as
airports, hotels, and coffee shops are providing free wireless access for customers.

Hot zone: a wireless access area created by multiple hot spots located in close proximity to each other.
Hot zones usually combine public safety access points with public hot spots. Each hot spot typically
provides network access for distances between 100 and 300 feet; various technologies, such as mesh
network topologies and fiber optic backbones, are used in conjunction with the hot spots to create
areas of coverage.

Optical wireless: the combined use of conventional radio-frequency (RF) wireless and optical fiber for
telecommunication. Long-range links are provided by optical fiber and links from the long-range end-
points to end users are accomplished by RF wireless or laser systems. RF wireless at ultra-high
frequencies (UHF) and microwave frequencies can carry broadband signals to individual computers at
substantial data speeds.

Radio frequency (RF): alternating current (AC) having characteristics such that, if the current is input to
an antenna, an electromagnetic (EM) field is generated suitable for wireless broadcasting and/or
communications.

English State Academy 69 | P a g e


SWAN (Structured Wireless-Aware Network): a technology that incorporates a WLAN into a wired wide-
area network (WAN). SWAN technology can enable an existing wired network to serve hundreds of
users, organizations, corporations, or agencies over a large geographic area. A SWAN is said to be
scalable, secure, and reliable.

Transponder: a wireless communications, monitoring, or control device that picks up and automatically
responds to an incoming signal. The term is a contraction of the words transmitter and responder.
Transponders can be either passive or active.

Ultra wideband (UWB): (see also: digital pulse wireless) is a wireless technology for transmitting large
amounts of digital data over a wide spectrum of frequency bands with very low power for a short
distance. Ultra wideband broadcasts very precisely timed digital pulses on a carrier signal across a very
wide spectrum (number of frequency channels) at the same time. UWB can carry a huge amount of data
over a distance up to 230 feet at very low power (less than 0.5 milliwatts), and has the ability to carry
signals through doors and other obstacles that tend to reflect signals at more limited bandwidths and a
higher power.

Virtual private network (VPN): a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as
the Internet, to provide remote offices or individual users with secure access to their organization's
network. A VPN ensures privacy through security procedures and tunneling protocols such as the Layer
Two Tunneling Protocol ( L2TP ). Data is encrypted at the sending end and decrypted at the receiving
end.

VoWLAN (Voice over WLAN, sometimes called wireless VoIP, Wi-Fi VoIP): a method of routing telephone
calls for mobile users over the Internet using the technology specified in IEEE 802.11b. Routing mobile
calls over the Internet makes them free, or at least much less expensive than they would be otherwise.

WAP (Wireless Application Protocol): a specification for a set of communication protocols to standardize
the way that wireless devices, such as cellular telephones and radio transceivers, can be used for
Internet access, including e-mail, the World Wide Web, newsgroups, and instant messaging.

War driving (also called access point mapping):, the act of locating and possibly exploiting connections
to WLANs while driving around a city or elsewhere. To do war driving, you need a vehicle, a computer
(which can be a laptop), a wireless Ethernet card set to work in promiscuous mode, and some kind of an
antenna which can be mounted on top of or positioned inside the car. Because a WLAN may have a
range that extends beyond an office building, an outside user may be able to intrude into the network,
obtain a free Internet connection, and possibly gain access to company records and other resources.

W-CDMA (Wideband Code-Division Multiple Access): officially known as IMT-2000 direct spread; ITU
standard derived from Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA). W-CDMA is a third-generation (3G)
mobile wireless technology that promises much higher data speeds to mobile and portable wireless
devices than commonly offered in today's market.

Wi-Fi (short for wireless fidelity): a term for certain types of WLANs. Wi-Fi can apply to products that use
any 802.11 standard. Wi-Fi has gained acceptance in many businesses, agencies, schools, and homes as
an alternative to a wired LAN. Many airports, hotels, and fast-food facilities offer public access to Wi-Fi
networks.

English State Academy 70 | P a g e


WiMAX : a wireless industry coalition whose members organized to advance IEEE 802.16 standards for
broadband wireless access (BWA) networks. WiMAX 802.16 technology is expected to enable
multimedia applications with wireless connection and, with a range of up to 30 miles, enable networks
to have a wireless last mile solution. According to the WiMAX forum, the group's aim is to promote and
certify compatibility and interoperability of devices based on the 802.16 specification, and to develop
such devices for the marketplace.

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP): a security protocol specified in 802.11b, designed to provide a WLAN
with a level of security and privacy comparable to what is usually expected of a wired LAN. Data
encryption protects the vulnerable wireless link between clients and access points; once this measure
has been taken, other typical LAN security mechanisms such as password protection, end-to-end
encryption, virtual private networks (VPNs), and authentication can be put in place to ensure privacy.

Wireless: describes telecommunications in which electromagnetic waves (rather than some form of
wire) carry the signal over part or all of the communication path.

Wireless Abstract XML (WAX): an abstract markup language and associated tools that facilitate wireless
application development. The major features of WAX include: the WAX language itself; translation
stylesheets, which are used to translate the WAX language into the most suitable language for the
requesting device; the device registry, which includes an XML database of device particulars; dynamic
image and text selection, which allows content to be written a single time for multiple transformations;
and the application foundation, a WAX servlet that creates a foundation for WAX applications.

Wireless adapter: A device that adds wireless capability to a desktop or laptop machine. Different
varieties plug into a PC Card slot, USB port or PCI bus.

Wireless application service provider (WASP): provides Web-based access to applications and services
that would otherwise have to be stored locally and makes it possible for customers to access the service
from a variety of wireless devices, such as a smartphone or personal digital assistant (PDA).

Wireless ISP (WISP): an Internet service provider (ISP) that allows subscribers to connect to a server at
designated hot spots (access points) using a wireless connection such as Wi-Fi. This type of ISP offers
broadband service and allows subscriber computers, called stations, to access the Internet and the Web
from anywhere within the zone of coverage provided by the server antenna, usually a region with a
radius of several kilometers.

Wireless LAN: A local area network that uses radio frequency transmission over the air. Wi-Fi is the
standard, and it works like a cellular phone system. See wireless LAN and Wi-Fi.

Wireless local area network (WLAN): a local area network (LAN) that users access through a wireless
connection. 802.11 standards specify WLAN technologies. WLANs are frequently some portion of a
wired LAN.

Wireless service provider: a company that offers transmission services to users of wireless devices
through radio frequency (RF) signals rather than through end-to-end wire communication.

Yagi antenna (sometimes called a Yagi-Uda array or simply a Yagi): a unidirectional antenna commonly
used in communications when a frequency is above 10 MHz.

Styles -
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used to style HTML elements.

Styling with CSS


CSS was introduced together with HTML, to provide a better way to style HTML elements. CSS can be
added to HTML in the following ways:

Inline - using the style attribute in HTML elements


Internal - using the <style> element in the <head> section
External - using an external CSS file

Internal Style Sheet


An internal style sheet can be used if one single document has a unique style. Internal styles are defined
in the <head> section of an HTML page, by using the <style> tag, like this:
<head> < style type="text/css">
body {background-color:yellow;}
p {color:blue;}
< /style> < /head>

External Style Sheet


An external style sheet is ideal when the style is applied to many pages. With an external style sheet, you
can change the look of an entire Web site by changing one file. Each page must link to the style sheet
using the <link> tag. The <link> tag goes inside the <head> section:
<head>
< link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css">
< /head>

Style Tags
Tag Description
<style> Defines style information for a document
<link> Defines the relationship between a document and an external
resource

Borders

Rounded Corners
After adding rounded corners in CSS was tricky. We had to use different images for each corner. Now in
CSS, creating rounded corners is easy. In CSS, the border-radius property is used to create rounded
corners:

Example

Add rounded corners to a div element:

div
{
border:2px solid;
border-radius:25px;
}

Box Shadow
In CSS, the box-shadow property is used to add shadow to boxes:

Example

Add a box-shadow to a div element:

div
{
box-shadow: 10px 10px 5px #888888;
}

Border Image
With the CSS border-image property you can use an image to create a border:

CSS background properties are used to define the background effects of an element. CSS properties used
for background effects:

Background Color
The background-color property specifies the background color of an element. The background color of a
page is defined in the body selector:

Example

With CSS, a color is most often specified by:

a HEX value - like "#ff0000"


an RGB value - like "rgb(255,0,0)"
a color name - like "red"

Look at CSS Color Values for a complete list of possible color values. In the example below, the h1, p,
and div elements have different background colors:

Example

Background Image
The background-image property specifies an image to use as the background of an element. By default,
the image is repeated so it covers the entire element. The background image for a page can be set like
this:

Example

Below is an example of a bad combination of text and background image.

Background Image - Repeat Horizontally or Vertically


By default, the background-image property repeats an image both horizontally and vertically. Some
images should be repeated only horizontally or vertically, or they will look strange, like this:

Example

If the image is repeated only horizontally (repeat-x), the background will look better.

Background Image - Set position and no-repeat

Note: When using a background image, use an image that does not
disturb the text.

English State Academy 77 | P a g e


Showing the image only once is specified by the background-repeat property:

Example

In the example above, the background image is shown in the same place as the text. We want to change
the position of the image, so that it does not disturb the text too much.

The position of the image is specified by the background-position property:

Example

All Background Properties


Property Description
background Sets all the background properties in one declaration
background-attachment Sets whether a background image is fixed or scrolls
with the rest of the page
background-color Sets the background color of an element
background-image Sets the background image for an element
background-position Sets the starting position of a background image
background-repeat Sets how a background image will be repeated

Text
Text formatting
Th is text is st yled with s om e of the t ext formatting
prop erties. Th e h eading uses the t ext -align, text -trans form, and
col or p roperti es. The paragraph is ind en ted, align ed, and the space
between characters is specified.

Text Color
The color property is used to set the color of the text. With CSS, a color is most often specified by:

a HEX value - like "#ff0000"


an RGB value - like "rgb(255,0,0)"
a color name - like "red"

Example

Note: For W3C compliant CSS: If you define the color property, you
must also define the background-color property.

Text Alignment
The text-align property is used to set the horizontal alignment of a text. Text can be centered, or aligned
to the left or right, or justified.
When text-align is set to "justify", each line is stretched so that every line has equal width, and the left
and right margins are straight (like in magazines and newspapers).

Example

h1 {text-align:center;}
p.date {text-align:right;}
p.main {text-align:justify;}

English State Academy 79 | P a g e


Text Decoration
The text-decoration property is used to set or remove decorations from text. The text-decoration property
is mostly used to remove underlines from links for design purposes:

Example

It can also be used to decorate text:

Note: It is not recommended to underline text that is not a link, as this


often confuses users.

All Text Properties


Property Description

Text Effects

Text Effects
CSS contains several new text features. In this part you will learn about the following text properties:

text-shadow
word-wrap

Text Shadow
In CSS, the text-shadow property applies shadow to text.

You specify the horizontal shadow, the vertical shadow, the blur distance, and the color of the shadow:

Example

Add a shadow to a header:

h1
{
text-shadow: 5px 5px 5px #FF0000;
}

Word Wrapping
If a word is too long to fit within an area, it expands outside. In CSS, the word-wrap property allows you
to force the text to wrap - even if it means splitting it in the middle of a word.

The CSS code is as follows:

Example

Text Properties

Property Description
hanging-punctuation Specifies whether a punctuation character may be placed
outside the line box
punctuation-trim Specifies whether a punctuation character should be
trimmed

Font

CSS font properties define the font family, boldness, size, and the style of a text.

Difference Between Serif and Sans-serif Fonts

Font Families
In CSS, there are two types of font family names:

generic family - a group of font families with a similar look (like "Serif" or
"Monospace")
font family - a specific font family (like "Times New Roman" or "Arial")

Generic family Font family Description


Serif Times New Roman Serif fonts have small lines at the ends on

Georgia some characters

Sans-serif Arial "Sans" means without - these fonts do not


Verdana have the lines at the ends of characters

Monospace Courier New All monospace characters have the same


Lucida Console width

Note: On computer screens, sans-serif fonts are considered easier to


read than serif fonts.

Font Style
The font-style property is mostly used to specify italic text. This property has three values:

normal - The text is shown normally


italic - The text is shown in italics
oblique - The text is "leaning" (oblique is very similar to italic, but less
supported)

English State Academy 83 | P a g e


Example

p.normal {font-style:normal;}
p.italic {font-style:italic;}
p.oblique {font-style:oblique;}

Set Font Size With Pixels


Setting the text size with pixels gives you full control over the text size:

Example

h1 {font-size:40px;}
h2 {font-size:30px;}
p {font-size:14px;}

The example above allows Internet Explorer 9, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Safari to resize the text.

Set Font Size With Em


To avoid the resizing problem with older versions of Internet Explorer, many developers use em instead
of pixels. The em size unit is recommended by the W3C.

1em is equal to the current font size. The default text size in browsers is 16px. So, the default size of 1em
is 16px. The size can be calculated from pixels to em using this formula: pixels/16=em

Example

h1 {font-size:2.5em;} /* 40px/16=2.5em */
h2 {font-size:1.875em;} /* 30px/16=1.875em */
p {font-size:0.875em;} /* 14px/16=0.875em */

All Font Properties


Property Description
font Sets all the font properties in one declaration
font-family Specifies the font family for text
font-size Specifies the font size of text
font-style Specifies the font style for text

Links

Styling Links
Links can be styled with any CSS property (e.g. color, font-family, background, etc.). In addition, links
can be styled differently depending on what state they are in.

The four links states are:


a:link - a normal, unvisited link
a:visited - a link the user has visited
a:hover - a link when the user mouses over it
a:active - a link the moment it is clicked

Example

When setting the style for several link states, there are some order rules:

a:hover MUST come after a:link and a:visited


a:active MUST come after a:hover

Background Color
The background-color property specifies the background color for links:

Example

English State Academy 86 | P a g e


Lists
The CSS list properties allow you to:

Set different list item markers for ordered lists


Set different list item markers for unordered lists
Set an image as the list item marker

List
In HTML, there are two types of lists:

unordered lists - the list items are marked with bullets


ordered lists - the list items are marked with numbers or letters

With CSS, lists can be styled further, and images can be used as the list item marker.

Different List Item Markers


The type of list item marker is specified with the list-style-type property:

Example

Some of the values are for unordered lists, and some for ordered lists.

An Image as The List Item Marker

English State Academy 87 | P a g e


To specify an image as the list item marker, use the list-style-image property:

Example

When using the shorthand property, the order of the values are:

list-style-type
list-style-position (for a description, see the CSS properties table below)
list-style-image

It does not matter if one of the values above are missing, as long as the rest are in the specified order.

All List Properties


Property Description
list-style Sets all the properties for a list in one declaration
list-style-image Specifies an image as the list-item marker
list-style-position Specifies if the list-item markers should appear inside or
outside the content flow
list-style-type Specifies the type of list-item marker

Table Borders
To specify table borders in CSS, use the border property. The example below specifies a black border for
table, th, and td elements:

Example

table, th, td
{
border: 1px solid black;
}

Notice that the table in the example above has double borders. This is because both the table and the th/td
elements have separate borders. To display a single border for the table, use the border-collapse property.

Collapse Borders
The border-collapse property sets whether the table borders are collapsed into a single border or
separated:

Example

English State Academy 89 | P a g e


Table Width and Height
Width and height of a table is defined by the width and height properties. The example below sets the
width of the table to 100%, and the height of the th elements to 50px:

Example

table
{ width:100%; }

th
{ height:50px; }

Table Text Alignment


The text in a table is aligned with the text-align and vertical-align properties. The text-align property sets
the horizontal alignment, like left, right, or center:

Example

td
{ text-align:right; }

The vertical-align property sets the vertical alignment, like top, bottom, or middle:

Example

td
{
height:50px;
vertical-align:bottom;
}

Table Padding
To control the space between the border and content in a table, use the padding property on td and th
elements:

Box Model

The Box Model


All HTML elements can be considered as boxes. In CSS, the term "box model" is used when talking
about design and layout.

The CSS box model is essentially a box that wraps around HTML elements, and it consists of: margins,
borders, padding, and the actual content.

The box model allows us to place a border around elements and space elements in relation to other
elements. The image below illustrates the box model:

Explanation of the different parts:

Margin - Clears an area around the border. The margin does not have a
background color, it is completely transparent
Border - A border that goes around the padding and content. The border is
affected by the background color of the box
Padding - Clears an area around the content. The padding is affected by
the background color of the box
Content - The content of the box, where text and images appear

In order to set the width and height of an element correctly in all browsers, you need to know how the box
model works.

Width and Height of an Element

Important: When you set the width and height properties of an element
with CSS, you just set the width and height of the content area. To
calculate the full size of an element, you must also add the padding,
borders and margins.

English State Academy 94 | P a g e


The total width of the element in the example below is 300px:

width:250px;
padding:10px;
border:5px solid gray;
margin:10px;

Let's do the math:


+ 250px (width)
+ 20px (left + right padding)
+ 10px (left + right border)
+ 20px (left + right margin)
= 300px

Assume that you had only 250px of space. Let's make an element with a total width of 250px:

Example

The total width of an element should be calculated like this:

Total element width = width + left padding + right padding + left border + right border + left
margin + right margin

The total height of an element should be calculated like this:

Total element height = height + top padding + bottom padding + top border + bottom border +
top margin + bottom margin

English State Academy 95 | P a g e


Border

Border Style
The CSS border properties allow you to specify the style and color of an element's border. The border-
style property specifies what kind of border to display.

Note: None of the border properties will have ANY effect unless the
border-style property is set!

border-style values:
none: Defines no border

dotted: Defines a dotted border

dashed: Defines a dashed border

solid: Defines a solid border

double: Defines two borders. The width of the two borders are the same as the border-width value

groove: Defines a 3D grooved border. The effect depends on the border-color value

ridge: Defines a 3D ridged border. The effect depends on the border-color value

inset: Defines a 3D inset border. The effect depends on the border-color value

outset: Defines a 3D outset border. The effect depends on the border-color value

English State Academy 96 | P a g e


Border Width
The border-width property is used to set the width of the border. The width is set in pixels, or by using
one of the three pre-defined values: thin, medium, or thick.

Note: The "border-width" property does not work if it is used alone. Use the "border-style" property to set
the borders first.

Example

p.one
{
border-style:solid;
border-width:5px;
}
p.two
{
border-style:solid;
border-width:medium;
}

Border Color
The border-color property is used to set the color of the border. The color can be set by:

name - specify a color name, like "red"


RGB - specify a RGB value, like "rgb(255,0,0)"
Hex - specify a hex value, like "#ff0000"

You can also set the border color to "transparent".

Note: The "border-color" property does not work if it is used alone. Use the "border-style" property to set
the borders first.

Example

p.one
{
border-style:solid;
border-color:red;
}
p.two
{
border-style:solid;
border-color:#98bf21;
}

English State Academy 97 | P a g e


Border - Individual sides
In CSS it is possible to specify different borders for different sides:

Example

p
{
border-top-style:dotted;
border-right-style:solid;
border-bottom-style:dotted;
border-left-style:solid;
}

The border-style property can have from one to four values.

border-style:dotted solid double dashed;


o top border is dotted
o right border is solid
o bottom border is double
o left border is dashed
border-style:dotted solid double;
o top border is dotted
o right and left borders are solid
o bottom border is double
border-style:dotted solid;
o top and bottom borders are dotted
o right and left borders are solid
border-style:dotted;
o all four borders are dotted

The border-style property is used in the example above. However, it also works with border-width and
border-color.

Outlines

An outline is a line that is drawn around elements (outside the borders)


to make the element "stand out". However, the outline property is
different from the border property.

JavaScript is the scripting language of the Web. All modern HTML pages are
using JavaScript. This tutorial will teach you JavaScript from basic to advance.

Introduction
JavaScript is the world's most popular programming language. It is the language for
HTML, for the web, for servers, PCs, laptops, tablets, phones, and more.

is a Scripting Language
A scripting language is a lightweight programming language.
JavaScript is programming code that can be inserted into HTML pages.
JavaScript code can be executed by all modern web browsers.
JavaScript is easy to learn.

Writing Into Output


Example

You can only use document.write in the HTML output. If you use it after
the document has loaded, the whole document will be overwritten.

Page
Reacting to Events
Example

The alert() function is not much used in JavaScript, but it is quite handy for trying out code.

The onclick event is only one of the many HTML events you will learn about in this tutorial.

Changing Content
Using JavaScript to manipulate the content of HTML elements is a very common.

Example

x=document.getElementById("demo") //Find the element


x.innerHTML="Hello JavaScript"; //Change the content

You will often see document.getElementById("some id"). This is defined in the HTML DOM. The
DOM (Document Object Model) is the official W3C standard for accessing HTML elements.

Changing Images
This example dynamically changes the source (src) attribute of an HTML <image> element:

The Light bulb

With JavaScript, you can change almost any HTML attribute.


English State Academy 107 |
Page
Changing Styles
Changing the style of an HTML element, is a variant of changing an HTML attribute.

Example

Validate Input
JavaScript is commonly used to validate input.

Example

if isNaN(x) {alert("Not Numeric")};

Did You Know?

JavaScript and Java are two completely different languages, in both


concept and design.
Java (invented by Sun) is a more complex programming language in
the same category as C. ECMA-262 is the official name of the JavaScript
standard.
JavaScript was invented by Brendan Eich. It appeared in Netscape (a no
longer existing browser) in 1995, and has been adopted by ECMA (a
standard association) since 1997.

Page
How To
JavaScripts in HTML must be inserted between <script> and </script> tags. JavaScripts
can be put in the <body> and in the <head> section of an HTML page.

The <script> Tag


To insert a JavaScript into an HTML page, use the <script> tag.

<script> alert("My First JavaScript"); < /script>

Old examples may have type="text/javascript" in the <script> tag. This is


no longer required. JavaScript is the default scripting language in all
modern browsers and in HTML5.

in <body>
In this example, JavaScript writes into the HTML <body> while the page loads:

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
< body>
.
<script>
document.write("<h1>This is a heading</h1>");
document.write("<p>This is a paragraph</p>");
< /script>
.
< /body>
< /html>

Functions and Events

The JavaScript statements, in the example above, are executed while the page loads. More often, we want
to execute code when an event occurs, like when the user clicks a button.
If we put JavaScript code inside a function, we can call that function when an event occurs. You will
learn much more about JavaScript functions and events in later chapters.

A Function in <head>
In this example, a JavaScript function is placed in the <head> section of an HTML page. The function is
called when a button is clicked:

Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function myFunction()
{
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML="My First JavaScript Function";
}
< /script>
< /head>
<body>
<h1>My Web Page</h1>
<p id="demo">A Paragraph</p>
<button type="button" onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
</body>
< /html>

External
Scripts can also be placed in external files. External files often contain code to be used by several
different web pages. External JavaScript files have the file extension .js. To use an external script, point to
the .js file in the "src" attribute of the <script> tag:

Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script src="myScript.js"> </script>
< /body>
< /html>

You can place the script in the <head> or <body> as you like. The script will behave as if it was located
exactly where you put the <script> tag in the document.

Page
External scripts cannot contain <script> tags.

Output

JavaScript is typically used to manipulate HTML elements.

Manipulating HTML Elements


To access an HTML element from JavaScript, you can use the document.getElementById(id) method.
Use the "id" attribute to identify the HTML element:

Example
Access the HTML element with the specified id, and change its content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
< body>
< h1>My First Web Page</h1>
< p id="demo">My First Paragraph</p>
<script> document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML="My First
JavaScript"; < /script>
< /body>
< /html>

The JavaScript is executed by the web browser. In this case, the browser will access the HTML element
with id="demo", and replace its content (innerHTML) with "My First JavaScript".

Writing to The Document Output


The example below writes a <p> element directly into the HTML document output:

Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
< body>
< h1>My First Web Page</h1>
<script> document.write("<p>My First JavaScript</p>");
< /script>
< /body>
< /html>

Variables

JavaScript variables are "containers" for storing information:

Example

Much Like Algebra


x=5
y=6
z=x+y

In algebra we use letters (like x) to hold values (like 5). From the expression z=x+y above, we can
calculate the value of z to be 11. In JavaScript these letters are called variables.

Think of variables as containers for storing data.

Variables
As with algebra, JavaScript variables can be used to hold values (x=5) or expressions (z=x+y). Variable
can have short names (like x and y) or more descriptive names (age, sum, totalvolume).

Variable names must begin with a letter


Variable names can also begin with $ and _ (but we will not use it)
Variable names are case sensitive (y and Y are different variables)

English State Academy 113 |


Page
Both JavaScript statements and JavaScript variables are case-sensitive.

Data Types
JavaScript variables can also hold other types of data, like text values (person="John Doe"). In JavaScript
a text like "John Doe" is called a string. There are many types of JavaScript variables, but for now, just
think of numbers and strings.

When you assign a text value to a variable, put double or single quotes around the value. When you
assign a numeric value to a variable, do not put quotes around the value. If you put quotes around a
numeric value, it will be treated as text.

Example

Declaring (Creating) Variables


Creating a variable in JavaScript is most often referred to as "declaring" a variable. You declare
JavaScript variables with the var keyword: var carname;

After the declaration, the variable is empty (it has no value). To assign a value to the variable, use the
equal sign: carname="Volvo";

However, you can also assign a value to the variable when you declare it: var carname="Volvo";

In the example below we create a variable called carname, assigns the value "Volvo" to it, and put the
value inside the HTML paragraph with id="demo":

Example

<p id="demo"></p>
var carname="Volvo";
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML=carname;

English State Academy 114 |


Page
It's a good programming practice to declare all the variables you will
need, in one place, at the beginning of your code.

One Statement, Many Variables


You can declare many variables in one statement. Just start the statement with var and separate the
variables by comma:

var lastname="Doe", age=30, job="carpenter";

Your declaration can also span multiple lines:

var lastname="Doe",
age=30,
job="carpenter";

Value = undefined
In computer programs, variables are often declared without a value. The value can be something that has
to be calculated, or something that will be provided later, like user input. Variable declared without a
value will have the value undefined.

The variable carname will have the value undefined after the execution of the following statement:

var carname;

Re-Declaring Variables
If you re-declare a JavaScript variable, it will not lose its value. The value of the variable carname will
still have the value "Volvo" after the execution of the following two statements:

var carname="Volvo";
var carname;

English State Academy 115 |


Page
Arithmetic
As with algebra, you can do arithmetic with JavaScript variables, using operators like = and +:

Example

y=5;
x=y+2;

Data Types

String, Number, Boolean, Array, Object, Null, Undefined.

Has Dynamic Types

Strings
A string is a variable which stores a series of characters like "John Doe".

A string can be any text inside quotes. You can use single or double quotes. You can use quotes
inside a string, as long as they don't match the quotes surrounding the string:

Example

var answer="It's alright";


var answer="He is called 'Johnny'";
var answer='He is called "Johnny"';

Numbers
JavaScript has only one type of numbers. Numbers can be written with, or without decimals:

Example

var x1=34.00; // Written with decimals


var x2=34; // Written without decimals

Extra large or extra small numbers can be written with scientific (exponential) notation:

English State Academy 116 |


Page
Example

var y=123e5; // 12300000


var z=123e-5; // 0.00123

Booleans
Booleans can only have two values: true or false.

var x=true;
var y=false;

Arrays
The following code creates an Array called cars:

var cars=new Array();


cars[0]="Saab";
cars[1]="Volvo";
cars[2]="BMW";

or (condensed array):

var cars=new Array("Saab","Volvo","BMW");

or (literal array):

Example

var cars=["Saab","Volvo","BMW"];

Array indexes are zero-based, which means the first item is [0], second is [1], and so on.

Declaring Variables as Objects


When a variable is declared with the keyword "new", the variable is declared as an object:

var name = new String;


var x = new Number;
var y = new Boolean;

English State Academy 117 |


Page
With JavaScript all variables can be objects.

Functions

A function is a block of code that will be executed when "someone" calls it:

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
< head>
< script>
function myFunction()
{
alert("Hello World!");
}
< /script>
< /head>

< body>
< button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
< /body>
< /html>

Function Syntax
A function is written as a code block (inside curly { } braces), preceded by the function keyword:

function functionname()
{

English State Academy 118 |


Page
some code to be executed
}

JavaScript is case sensitive. The function keyword must be written in


lowercase letters, and the function must be called with the same
capitals as used in the function name.

Calling a Function with Arguments


When you call a function, you can pass along some values to it, these values are called arguments or
parameters. These arguments can be used inside the function.

You can send as many arguments as you like, separated by commas (,)

myFunction(argument1,argument2)

Declare the argument, as variables, when you declare the function:

function myFunction(var1,var2)
{
some code
}

Example

<button onclick="myFunction('Harry Potter','Wizard')">Try


it</button>

< script>
function myFunction(name,job)
{
alert("Welcome " + name + ", the " + job);
}
< /script>

The function above will alert "Welcome Harry Potter, the Wizard" when the button is clicked.

English State Academy 119 |


Page
The function is flexible, you can call the function using different arguments, and different welcome
messages will be given:

Example

The example above will alert "Welcome Harry Potter, the Wizard" or "Welcome Bob, the Builder"
depending on which button is clicked.

Functions With a Return Value


Sometimes you want your function to return a value back to where the call was made. This is possible by
using the return statement.

When using the return statement, the function will stop executing, and return the specified value.

Syntax
function myFunction()
{
var x=5;
return x;
}

The function above will return the value 5.

Note: It is not the entire JavaScript that will stop executing, only the function. JavaScript
will continue executing code, where the function-call was made from.

You can make a return value based on arguments passed into the function:

Example

English State Academy 120 |


Page
The return statement is also used when you simply want to exit a function.

I. Watch the following video and listen carefully to the information.


Take notes in your notebook and answer the questions that the
teacher will give you. JavaScript Alert() and JavaScript Events General

Operators

= is used to assign values.

+ is used to add values.

The assignment operator = is used to assign values to JavaScript variables. The arithmetic operator + is
used to add values together.

Example

Assign values to variables and add them together:


y=5;
z=2;
x=y+z;
The result of x will be:
7

English State Academy 121 |


Page
Arithmetic Operators

Arithmetic operators are used to perform arithmetic between variables and/or values.

Given that y=5, the table below explains the arithmetic operators:

Operator Description Example Result of x Result of y


+ Addition x=y+2 7 5
- Subtraction x=y-2 3 5
* Multiplication x=y*2 10 5
/ Division x=y/2 2.5 5
% Modulus (division remainder) x=y%2 1 5
++ Increment x=++y 6 6
x=y++ 5 6
-- Decrement x=--y 4 4
x=y-- 5 4

Assignment Operators
Assignment operators are used to assign values to JavaScript variables.

Given that x=10 and y=5, the table below explains the assignment operators:

Operator Example Same As Result


= x=y x=5
+= x+=y x=x+y x=15
-= x-=y x=x-y x=5
*= x*=y x=x*y x=50
/= x/=y x=x/y x=2
%= x%=y x=x%y x=0

English State Academy 122 |


Page
The + Operator Used on Strings
The + operator can also be used to add string variables or text values together.

Example
To add two or more string variables together, use the + operator.
txt1="What a very";
txt2="nice day";
txt3=txt1+txt2;

The result of txt3 will be:

What a verynice day

To add a space between the two strings, insert a space into one of the strings:

Example
txt1="What a very ";
txt2="nice day";
txt3=txt1+txt2;

The result of txt3 will be:

What a very nice day

or insert a space into the expression:

Example

txt1="What a very";
txt2="nice day";
txt3=txt1+" "+txt2;

The result of txt3 will be:

What a very nice day

Adding Strings and Numbers


Adding two numbers, will return the sum, but adding a number and a string will return a string:

Example

x=5+5;
y="5"+5;
z="Hello"+5;

English State Academy 123 |


Page
The result of x,y, and z will be:

10
55
Hello5

The rule is: If you add a number and a string, the result will be a string!

Comparison and Logical


Operators
Comparison Operators
Comparison operators are used in logical statements to determine equality or difference between variables
or values.

Operator Description Comparing Returns


== equal to x==8 false
x==5 true
=== exactly equal to (equal value and equal x==="5" false
type) x===5 true
!= not equal x!=8 true
!== not equal (different value or different type) x!=="5" true
x!==5 false
> greater than x>8 false
< less than x<8 true

English State Academy 124 |


Page
>= greater than or equal to x>=8 false
<= less than or equal to x<=8 true

Logical Operators
Logical operators are used to determine the logic between variables or values.

Operator Description Example


&& and (x < 10 && y > 1) is true
|| or (x==5 || y==5) is false
! not !(x==y) is true

Conditional Operator
JavaScript also contains a conditional operator that assigns a value to a variable based on some condition.

Syntax : variablename=(condition)?value1:value2

Example
If the variable age is a value below 18, the value of the variable voteable will
be "Too young, otherwise the value of voteable will be "Old enough":

voteable=(age<18)?"Too young":"Old enough";

If...Else Statements

Conditional statements are used to perform different actions based on different conditions.

Conditional Statements
Very often when you write code, you want to perform different actions for different decisions. You can
use conditional statements in your code to do this.

In JavaScript we have the following conditional statements:

if statement - use this statement to execute some code only if a specified


condition is true
if...else statement - use this statement to execute some code if the
condition is true and another code if the condition is false
if...else if....else statement - use this statement to select one of many
blocks of code to be executed

English State Academy 125 |


Page
switch statement - use this statement to select one of many blocks of
code to be executed

If Statement
Use the if statement to execute some code only if a specified condition is true.

Syntax

if (condition)
{
code to be executed if condition is true
}

Note that if is written in lowercase letters. Using uppercase letters (IF) will generate a JavaScript error!

Example

Make a "Good day" greeting if the time is less than 20:00:

if (time<20)
{
x="Good day";
}

The result of x will be:


Good day

Notice that there is no ..else.. in this syntax. You tell the browser to execute some code only if the
specified condition is true.

If...else Statement
Use the if....else statement to execute some code if a condition is true and another code if the condition is
not true.

Syntax

if (condition)
{
code to be executed if condition is true
}
else
{

English State Academy 126 |


Page
code to be executed if condition is not true
}

Example

If the time is less than 20:00, you will get a "Good day" greeting, otherwise
you will get a "Good evening" greeting

if (time<20)
{
x="Good day";
}
else
{
x="Good evening";
}

The result of x will be:


Good day

If...else if...else Statement


Use the if....else if...else statement to select one of several blocks of code to be executed.

Syntax

if (condition1)
{
code to be executed if condition1 is true
}
else if (condition2)
{
code to be executed if condition2 is true
}
else
{
code to be executed if neither condition1 nor condition2 is true
}

Example

If the time is less than 10:00, you will get a "Good morning" greeting, if not,
but the time is less than 20:00, you will get a "Good day" greeting,
otherwise you will get a "Good evening" greeting:

English State Academy 127 |


Page
if (time<10)
{
x="Good morning";
}
else if (time<20)
{
x="Good day";
}
else
{
x="Good evening";
}

The result of x will be:

Good day

For Loop

Loops can execute a block of code a number of times.

Loops
Loops are handy, if you want to run the same code over and over again, each time with a different value.
Often this is the case when working with arrays:

Instead of writing:

English State Academy 128 |


Page
document.write(cars[0] + "<br>");
document.write(cars[1] + "<br>");
document.write(cars[2] + "<br>");
document.write(cars[3] + "<br>");
document.write(cars[4] + "<br>");
document.write(cars[5] + "<br>");

You can write:

for (var i=0;i<cars.length;i++)


{
document.write(cars[i] + "<br>");
}

Different Kinds of Loops


JavaScript supports different kinds of loops:

for - loops through a block of code a number of times


for/in - loops through the properties of an object
while - loops through a block of code while a specified condition is true
do/while - also loops through a block of code while a specified condition is
true

The For Loop


The for loop is often the tool you will use when you want to create a loop. The for loop has the following
syntax:

for (statement 1; statement 2; statement 3)


{
the code block to be executed
}

Statement 1 is executed before the loop (the code block) starts.


Statement 2 defines the condition for running the loop (the code block).
Statement 3 is executed each time after the loop (the code block) has been executed.

Example

for (var i=0; i<5; i++)


{
x=x + "The number is " + i + "<br>";
}

English State Academy 129 |


Page
Statement 1
Normally you will use statement 1 to initiate the variable used in the loop (var i=0). This is not always the
case, JavaScript doesn't care, and statement 1 is optional. You can initiate any (or many) values in
statement 1:

Example:

for (var i=0,len=cars.length; i<len; i++)


{
document.write(cars[i] + "<br>");
}

And you can omit statement 1 (like when your values are set before the loop starts):

Example:

var i=2,len=cars.length;
for (; i<len; i++)
{
document.write(cars[i] + "<br>");
}

Statement 2
Often statement 2 is used to evaluate the condition of the initial variable. This is not always the case,
JavaScript doesn't care, and statement 2 is optional. If statement 2 returns true, the loop will start over
again, if it returns false, the loop will end.

If you omit statement 2, you must provide a break inside the loop.
Otherwise the loop will never end. This will crash your browser. Read
about breaks in a later chapter of this tutorial.

Statement 3
Often statement 3 increases the initial variable. This is not always the case, JavaScript doesn't care, and
statement 3 is optional. Statement 3 could do anything. The increment could be negative (i--), or larger
(i=i+15). Statement 3 can also be omitted (like when you have corresponding code inside the loop):

Example:
English State Academy 130 |
Page
var i=0,len=cars.length;
for (; i<len; )
{
document.write(cars[i] + "<br>");
i++;
}

The For/In Loop


The JavaScript for/in statement loops through the properties of an object:

Example

var person={fname:"John",lname:"Doe",age:25};

for (x in person)
{
txt=txt + person[x];
}

While Loop

Loops can execute a block of code as long as a specified condition is true.

The While Loop


The while loop loops through a block of code as long as a specified condition is true.

Syntax

while (condition)
{

English State Academy 131 |


Page
code block to be executed
}

The loop in this example will continue to run as long as the variable i is less than 5:

Example

while (i<5)
{
x=x + "The number is " + i + "<br>";
i++;
}

If you forget to increase the variable used in the condition, the loop will
never end. This will crash your browser.

The Do/While Loop


The do/while loop is a variant of the while loop. This loop will execute the code block once, before
checking if the condition is true, then it will repeat the loop as long as the condition is true.

Syntax

do
{
code block to be executed
}
while (condition);

The example below uses a do/while loop. The loop will always be executed at least once, even if the
condition is false, because the code block is executed before the condition is tested:

Example

do
{
x=x + "The number is " + i + "<br>";
i++;
}
while (i<5);

Do not forget to increase the variable used in the condition, otherwise the loop will never end!

Comparing For and While


English State Academy 132 |
Page
If you have read the previous chapter, about the for loop, you will discover that a while loop is much the
same as a for loop, with statement 1 and statement 3 omitted.

The loop in this example uses a for loop to display all the values in the cars array:

Example

cars=["BMW","Volvo","Saab","Ford"];
var i=0;
for (;cars[i];)
{
document.write(cars[i] + "<br>");
i++;
}

The loop in this example uses a while loop to display all the values in the cars array:

Example

cars=["BMW","Volvo","Saab","Ford"];
var i=0;
while (cars[i])
{
document.write(cars[i] + "<br>");
i++;
}

PHRASES FOR LETTERS OF COMPLAINT

Letters of complaint usually include the following stages:

Background I am writing to inform you that the goods we ordered


This section describes the from your company have not been supplied correctly.
situation I attended your exhibition Sound Systems 2013 at the
Fortune Hotel (22-25 January) and found it informative
and interesting. Unfortunately, my enjoyment of the
event was spoiled by a number of organizational
problems.
I am a shareholder of Sunshine Bank and I am very
concerned regarding recent newspaper reports on the
financial situation of the bank. Your company is listed as
the auditor in the latest annual report of the bank, so I am
writing to you to ask for an explanation of the following
issues.
I am writing to inform you of my dissatisfaction with the
food and drinks at the 'European Restaurant' on 18
January this year.

Problem Cause:

On 17 October 2013 we placed an order with your firm for


12,000 ultra super long-life batteries. The consignment
arrived yesterday but contained only 1,200 batteries.
Firstly, I had difficulty in registering to attend the event.
You set up an on-line registration facility, but I found the
facility totally unworkable.
You sent us an invoice for $10,532, but did not deduct our
usual 10% discount.
We have found 16 spelling errors and 2 mis-labelled

English State Academy 148 |


Page
diagrams in the sample book.

Effect:

This error put our firm in a difficult position, as we had to


make some emergency purchases to fulfill our
commitments to all our customers. This caused us
considerable inconvenience.
Even after spending several wasted hours trying to
register in this way, the computer would not accept my
application.
I am therefore returning the invoice to you for correction.
These large numbers of errors are unacceptable to our
customers, and we are therefore unable to sell these
books.

Solution I am writing to ask you to please make up the shortfall


immediately and to ensure that such errors do not
happen again.
Could I please ask you to look into these matters.
Please send us a corrected invoice for $9,479
I enclose a copy of the book with the errors highlighted.
Please re-print the book and send it to us by next Friday.

Warning (optional) Otherwise, we may have to look elsewhere for our


supplies.
I'm afraid that if these conditions are not met, we may be
forced to take legal action.
If the outstanding fees are not paid by Monday, 4
November 2013, you will incur a 10% late payment fee.

Closing I look forward to receiving your explanation of these


matters.
I look forward to receiving your payment.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly.

CSS AND JavaScript GLOSSARY

A relation to CSS positioning: Absolute positioning is used for elements that would be out of place if
allowed to flow with the surrounding elements. e.g. The background on the CodeHelp site uses absolute
positioning to eliminate the border that would appear if the image was placed with relative positioning,
even as the first line of the body section. Use relative to provide access with Javascript without affecting
the position of the element relative to the rest of the page. (The default in HTML is static positioning and
Javascript requires the use of the relative position attribute to access the element.

Background: Formerly found in the <body> tag or in tables, the background attribute is deprecated and
must be replaced by CSS. The background attribute specifies the URL of an image to use behind the page
content. The image is tiled by default (repeated in each direction until the space is filled). To set the
background to a color use the CSS below instead of the deprecated bgcolor attribute.

Base tag: (Must be within the <head></head> section.) Common use is to specify the target for all links
in a frameset document. If the document is part of a frameset, you can specify an output frame by
name. To override the base target, specify a target as <a href="" target="differentframe">. HTML4
requires the tag to specify the base URL for all relative links in the document (which is otherwise
assumed to be the current directory).

Bgcolor attribute: Deprecated Sets the color background. Use either a color name or describe the exact
color using hexadecimal numbers to describe the settings for red, green and blue. Color names are
preferable.

Body tag: Every HTML document, except a frameset, needs a <body> </body> tag as the beginning and
end of the content area. Attributes specified in the body tag apply equally to all parts of the document.
CSS allows the usual body attributes to be specified as part of the style, including backgrounds,text
colors, and link colors. The body tag is also the home of the onLoad() Javascript function which is only
called once, after the document has finished loading - executing configuration code outside onLoad can
cause errors if certain parts of the document have not yet been downloaded over a slow connection.

Button: A real 3D button is only available within a form. You can make an image into a button (2D by
default) by putting the <img> tag within a <a></a> tag.

English State Academy 155 |


Page
Cascading Style Sheets: cascading style sheets: The basis of style management in HTML4. The
main CodeHelp site contains detailed explanations of style sheet syntax and uses. Search for stylesheet.

Class: Use the keyword class to assign the settings declared in the style sheet to the HTML tag: <p
class=indent> </p> Only <base> <basefont> <head> <html> <meta> <param> <script> <style> and <title>
cannot contain a class selector.

CSS: The Cascading Style Sheets Specification (CSS) is a computer language that is used to write
formatting instructions (rules). These rules tell a web browser how webpage content should look in
terms of:

Layout. position, alignment, width, height, etc.

Style. typeface, font-weight, color, border, etc.

CSS and Backgrounds: Style sheets can put a background behind individual elements, position the main
background away from the page edges, stop background images repeating in either or both directions
and dictate whether the image scrolls with the page or remains fixed.

Document Javascript: Document inherits properties and methods from HTMLElement. Netscape4 and
Internet Explorer add numerous incompatible methods and properties (see this site or DHTML in this
glossary and the Javascript Pocket Reference for details). The onLoad(); and onUnload(); are part of the
window object rather than document.

Extension or File extensin: In Windows, DOS and some other operating systems, one or several letters
at the end of a filename. Filename extensions usually follow a period (dot) and indicate the type of file.
For example, this.txt denotes a plain text file, that.htm or that.html denotes an HTML file, that.js an
JavaScript file. Some common image extensions are picture.jpg or picture.jpeg or picture.png or
picture.gif

External Stylesheets: Stylesheets are particularly suitable as external links. Using a single file for all
appropriate pages makes updating and amending the site simple. One change to the stylesheet file and
all pages on the site could reflect the amendments without you having to alter any HTML or upload any
of the HTML files themselves using FTP. The syntax is <link rel="stylesheet" href="URL"
type="text/css"> The stylesheet file itself should be a plain text file with a .css extension contain only the
text you would otherwise enter between the <style></style> tags. Only one stylesheet can be linked to
any one HTML page.

External Javascript: If more than one page uses the same functions (such as the one that loads some
pages in new browser windows) the javascript code can be imported from an external text file - with the
.js externsion - using the following syntax in the HTML document: <script language="Javascript"
type="text/javascript" src="URL"></script>

Font property (CSS): If you want to specify more than one font control in a single class or rule, use the
shorthand font property and separate each value with a space. Weight values
precede style, variant, size line height and font names in that order.

English State Academy 156 |


Page
Font tag: Now deprecated, the font tag has been overtaken by CSS. You may choose to use it for pages
viewed in v3 browsers. The main advantage in CSS is the reuse of code: under HTML3 if you wanted a
table showing ordinary text in the first column and highlighted text in the second column. If you wanted
customized text in column 1 as well to differentiate the descriptions from the rest of the text on the
page, that would be two font changes per line. With 30 products that gets to a mess of 60 <font
color="#FFC354" size="+1"> and </font> tags. Now with HTML4 and CSS, you can set the parameters for
each column as a class and even set the table definition itself so that the final code only requires
class=one or class=two to be set.

Height property (CSS): Stylesheets can use the height property for text elements as easily as images and
objects. The property can use absolute measurements in pixels or percentages of the available area.

HTMLElement Javascript: Browser dependent properties and methods are not covered here. See
the Javascript Pocket Reference for details. Only the event handlers within the HTMLElement object are
browser-independent, and only inJavascript1.2.

In relation to CSS positioning: Relative positioning provides an offset from the current flow of the page
and allows elements to be accessed by a Javascript function. A relative position of top:0 left:0 is no
different to the default static position.

Java: A network-oriented programming language invented by Sun Microsystems that is specifically


designed for writing programs that can be safely downloaded to your computer through the Internet
and immediately run without fear of viruses or other harm to our computer or files. Using small Java
programs (called "Applets").

JavaScript: A simple programming language developed by Netscape to enable greater interactivity in


Web pages. It shares some characteristics with JAVA but is independent. It interacts with HTML,
enabling dynamic content and motion.

Margin property: See also padding. The margin is a calculated space around any element - a transparent
space around any border drawn. Use margin in your stylesheet to remove the need for the deprecated
hspace and vspace attributes and to precisely control the relative positioning of page elements. Use
margin-top margin-right margin-bottom and margin-left if you want to position the element off center
compared to adjacent elements.

Padding: See also the more commonly required margin. Padding space is only within the border of an
element (whether the border is drawn or not) so does not affect other objects on the page. Padding, by
default is even on all sides. Use padding-top, padding-right, padding-bottom and padding-left to position
an element off center inside the invisible box that contains each individual element on the page.

Paragraphs: Publishing any kind of written work requires the use of a paragraph. The paragraph tag is
very basic and a great introductory tag for beginner's because of its simplicity.

Script: A script is a type of programming language that can be used to fetch and display Web pages.
There are many kinds and uses of scripts on the Web. They can be used to create all or part of a page,
and communicate with searchable databases. Forms (boxes) and many interactive links, which respond
differently depending on what you enter, all require some kind of script language. When you find a

English State Academy 157 |


Page
question mark (?) in the URL of a page, some kind of script command was used in generating and/or
delivering that page. Most search engine spiders are instructed not to crawl pages from scripts, although
it is usually technically possible for them to do so (see Invisible Web for more information).

Script tag: If your code defines new Javascript functions, put the <script> tag in the <head> section of
your HTML document to make sure the functions are available to all parts of the document. If you want
your Javascript to execute inline, for example, to print a customised part of the page, the code may not
need a function declaration and the tag should be in the <body> at the point where the output is
required.

Stylesheets: Cascading style sheets: Users of some browsers can set up their own stylesheets that will
be applied to all sites the user visits. Eventually, one of these settings will conflict with another setting
on the web site. The style sheets are applied in a cascade to avoid this problem. The site style sheet will
overrule the visitors style sheet. Also, if two site rules conflict, the more specific rule will be applied, ID
being more specific than class and class being more specific than HTML tag alterations.

Validation: For solutions to problems validating forms which use Javascript, see the CodeHelp site.
To validate your own HTML (after uploading it to suitable webspace) go to the W3C Validator.
Validation at least ensures that you should not get nasty suprises from visitors viewing your HTML in
other browsers.

Var tag: Similar to <code> - use to display a program argument or variable. Usually renders in italic.

Visibility: Set the initial visibility state of any CSS element in the stylesheet: visibility:visible or hidden.
When hidden, the element takes up the same amount of space on the page as when it is visible.
Compare with display. Visibility can be changed dynamically using Javascript but remember that IE and
Netscape have differing ways ofaccessing CSS elements through Javascript. The following code shows
how to manipulate the visibility of an element with the id active in IE which was previously declared as
hidden.

V.- Read this information about Cisco IOS then use it to solve the next activities.

G.C. 4.3, D.C. 4

Cisco IOS

Cisco IOS Software is the world's leading


network infrastructure software,
delivering a seamless integration of
technology innovation, business-critical
services, and hardware platform support.
Currently operating on millions of active
systems, ranging from the small home
office router to the core systems of the
world's largest service provider networks,
Cisco IOS Software is the most widely
leveraged network infrastructure software
in the world.

Access Levels

Cisco IOS permits to configure multiple privilege access levels for different accounts.
This is very useful when many people work on the same router or switch, but with
different access levels and there is no time to implement an authentication server.

Cisco IOS supports 16 different privilege levels from 0 through 15. Level 0 is user mode.
Level 15 is the privileged mode. Level 1 through 14 is available for customization and
use. By default, any user who can furnish the user-level password or user
name/password combination can gain User exec mode access to the device, which is
privilege level 1. From there, if the user knows the enable secret password, they can
access the Privilege exec mode, or privilege level 15. The three predefined privilege
levels on Cisco devices include the following:
Level 1 is User exec mode only (prompt is router>), the default level for login
Level 15 is Privileged exec mode (prompt is router#), the Enable mode
Level 0 Seldom used, but includes five commands: disable, enable, exit, help,
and logout and these commands can be executed at any level.

Command Hierarchy

After an EXEC session is established, commands within Cisco IOS Software are
hierarchically structured. Understanding this hierarchy is important for successfully
configuring a router. The following figure illustrates a simple high-level schematic
diagram of some Cisco IOS commands.

English State Academy 163 |


Page
Command options and applications vary, depending on your position within this
hierarchy. Configuration command options are not available until you have navigated
to the configuration branch of the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) structure.
When you are in the configuration branch, you may enter system-level configuration
commands that apply to the entire router at the global configuration level. Interface-
specific configuration commands are available when you switch to the interface
configuration level.

To assist you in navigation through the Cisco IOS CLI, the command prompt changes to
reflect your position within the command hierarchy. This setup allows you to easily
identify where within the command structure you are at any given moment. The
following table is a summary of command prompts and the corresponding location
within the command structure.

IX. - Read this information about VLAN, it contains very helpful information to
you.

VLAN
A VLAN is a group of end stations in a switched network that is logically segmented by
function, project team, or application, without regard to the physical locations of the
users. VLANs have the same attributes as physical LANs, but you can group end
stations even if they are not physically located on the same LAN segment.

Any port can belong to a VLAN, and unicast, broadcast, and multicast packets are
forwarded and flooded only to end stations in that VLAN. Each VLAN is considered a
logical network. Packets destined for stations that do not belong to the VLAN must be
forwarded through a router.

VLANs are usually associated with IP subnetworks. For example, all the end stations in
a particular IP subnet belong to the same VLAN. To communicate between VLANs, you
must route the traffic.

By default, a newly created VLAN is operational; that is, the VLAN is in the no
shutdown condition. Additionally, you can configure VLANs to be in the active state,
which is passing traffic, or the suspended state, in which the VLANs are not passing
packets. By default, the VLANs are in the active state and pass traffic.

VLAN Advantages.

Broadcast Control: Broadcasts are required for the normal function of a


network. Many protocols and applications depend on broadcast
communication to function properly. A layer 2 switched network is in a single
broadcast domain and the broadcasts can reach the network segments which
are so far where a particular broadcast has no scope and consume available
network bandwidth. A layer 3 device (typically a Router) is used to segment a
broadcast domain. If we segment a large LAN to smaller VLANs we can reduce
broadcast traffic as each broadcast will be sent on to the relevant VLAN only.
Security: VLANs provide enhanced network security. In a VLAN network
environment, with multiple broadcast domains, network administrators have
control over each port and user. A malicious user can no longer just plug their
workstation into any switch port and sniff the network traffic using a packet
sniffer. The network administrator controls each port and whatever resources

English State Academy 167 |


Page
it is allowed to use. VLANs help to restrict sensitive traffic originating from an

XII. - Read the following information and use it to answer the exercise below.

Types of VLANs

Several types of VLAN are defined, depending on switching criteria and the level at
which the VLAN is conducted:

A level 1 VLAN (also called a Port Based VLAN) defines a virtual network
according to the connection ports on the switch;
A level 2 VLAN (also called a MAC Address-Based VLAN) comprises of defining a
virtual network according to the MAC addresses of the stations; This type of
VLAN is much more flexible than the port based VLAN because the network is
independent from the location of the station;
A level 3 VLAN: there are several types of level 3 VLANs:
The Network Address Based VLAN links subnets according to the source
IP address of the datagrams. This type of solution provides great
flexibility in so far as the configuration of the switches changes
automatically when a station is moved. On the other hand there may be
slight degradation in performance since the information contained in
the packets must be analyzed more closely.
The Protocol Based VLAN makes it possible to create a virtual network
by protocol type (for example TCP/IP, IPX, AppleTalk, etc.), therefore
grouping together all the machines using the same protocol on the
same network.

Grammar in Context

In teams of four members study and discuss the following information and then
answer the examples below.
G.C. 8.1,8.2 & 8.3

What is ACTIVE tense?

Example: John sells his computer to a technician.

Explanation: This sentence has the regular structure of an affirmative


sentence, and it says what John sells. This is the reason it is active because
the subject is who performs the action. It is used in everyday conversations.

John sells his computer to a technician.


Subject verb direct object predicate

What is PASSIVE tense?

Example: The computer is sold to a technician by John.

Explanation: This sentence has a reversed structure where the object (who
receives the action) becomes the subject, and you add the correct form of
auxiliary BE( is / are / am / isnt / arent / am not ), and change action verb to
past participle form.

GLOSSARY

English State Academy 179 |


Page
Cisco: Cisco Systems, Inc. is an American multinational corporation headquartered in San Jose,
California, that designs, manufactures, and sells networking equipment.

IP address: An IP address is a binary number that uniquely identifies computers and other devices on a
TCP/IP network.

Packet: A term first coined by Donald Davies in 1965, a packet is a segment of data sent from one
computer or network device to another computer or network device over a network. A packet contains
the source, destination, size, type, data, and other useful information that helps packet get to its
destination and then read. Below is a breakdown of a TCP packet.

Protocol: Sometimes referred to as an access method, a protocol is a standard used to define a method
of exchanging data over a computer network such as local area network, Internet, Intranet, etc. Each
protocol has its own method of how data is formatted when sent and what to do with it once received,
how that data is compressed or how to check for errors in data.

Router: Routers are small physical devices that join multiple networks together. Technically, a router is a
Layer 3 gateway device, meaning that it connects two or more networks and that the router operates at
the network layer of the OSI model.

Subnet: Subnet is a method of dividing a network of IP addresses into groups. Subnetting allows each
computer or networking device in its own subnet to communicate with each other and still allow
communication between subnets by routing the traffic through the network router

TCP/IP: Short for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, TCP/IP also commonly abbreviated as
TCP was developed in 1978 and driven by Bob Kahn and Vint Cerf. Today, TCP/IP is a language governing
communications among all computers on the Internet.

VLAN: Short for Virtual Local Area Network, VLAN is a virtual LAN that allows a network administrator to
setup separate networks by configuring a network device, such as a router, and not through cabling.
This allows for a network to be divided, setup and changed, allowing for a network administrator to
organize and filter data accordingly in a corporate network.
