Web
Development is
digitalpages, (a Minneapolis, Minnesota company)
function of making the web site. There is a difference between web
site development and web design.
Web site
design is a creative process that takes the information about why
a web site is needed, the function of the web site, who will use
the web site, how they will use the web site, what information
needs to be presented and designs a blue print for the web
development team. The development team then begins the process of
web development.
Elements
that the team uses to develop the site include HTML coding,
JavaScript coding so that features such as drop-down buttons can
be used, graphics, placement of graphics, placement of
pictures,
cropping pictures, and sizing of pictures. The web development
group also constructs flash presentations, if applicable. This
includes flash layout and testing. Flash design requires very
sophisticated development applications.
Additional
elements of web development include buttons, button construction,
button size, and button behavior. Examples of button behavior are
button appearance and color on mouse over and appearance and color
on click and click release. Akin to graphics and pictures are
forms. Web form site development requires special coding in order
to get an interactive response from the user. Web forms can also
be coded to require and check for certain kinds of data input such
as email. The form can check to make sure that the proper email
format is being inputted.
The most
important part of web development is content. This is the
information that is provided to the web site visitor. The site
owner should provide the majority of the content because the web
site owner knows its business better than anyone else. The web
developer is responsible for content placement. Elements of
content placement include the site style sheets (for consistency
in the website look and feel), fonts, font colors, the page
layout, page color, and color matching so the site is pleasing to
the visitor, and tables to provide important information, and
invisible or visible tables for website layout consistency.
It is very
important for the web development team to put together a good link
structure. Links are the means of navigating within the website
and of navigating to other web sites.
Other
functions that are related directly or indirectly to web
development are database construction, site optimization, testing
and maintenance.
