Web Development & JavaScript Course Overview

A combination of the Web Development Foundation - HTML and JavaScript and JavaScript Web Development courses, this course builds on the core understanding of web technologies with coverage of the JavaScript programming language and supporting libraries.

In a practical, hands-on environment, delegates cover markup with HTML, XHTML and introducing HTML5, through styles and separation of styling concerns using CSS, and including aspects of web design and IDE/tool choices, before working with JavaScript in a browser environment to compose and manipulate web aspects and components using a variety of techniques.

Skills Gained

The delegate will practice:

  • Web protocols (TCP/IP)
  • Web browser choices and plugins
  • HTML, XHTML, HTML5
  • CSS, including CSS3
  • Web design and development approaches
  • Web development best practice
  • Web development tools and software
  • Web development issues
  • Using the core JavaScript language
  • Using functions and Objects
  • Controlling Windows
  • Using the W3C DOM
  • Timing JavaScript
  • Handling JavaScript events
  • Debugging JavaScript
  • Asynchronous techniques using AJAX/AHAH/JAH
  • Using libraries, such as jQuery
  • Introduction to other JavaScript libraries

Who will the Course Benefit?

The Web Development & JavaScript course is aimed at future Web Developers and Designers that require a core understanding of the W3 and will be utilising JavaScript in web development.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course delegates should be able to:

  • Understand the need for HTML, XHTML, and CSS
  • Appreciate the W3C DOM
  • Understand web development tools and techniques
  • Review common web languages
  • Use open source software to build web pages
  • Understand the web landscape

Delegates will also gather a core understanding of the practical application of the JavaScript language and common libraries in a web context. The core of the language is the main concern, introducing the major features of web programming such as the DOM, browsers, user interaction and working in a browser environment in order to provide a grounding in the major aspects of JavaScript web development.

Requirements

Attendees should be familiar and comfortable with the basic use of the keyboard and mouse as well as having had exposure to browser environments such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox or Opera.

Programming experience would be advantageous. While not a specific requirement, it would be beneficial if delegates had some exposure to either a procedural or object oriented language and have sufficient core understanding of programming structures and concepts.
