Webmaster's SIG

Webmasters' SIG
"Behind the Web"

Wednesday, September 15, 2004, 7:00pm
CompUSA, South Boulevard and I-485

Yes! It's here!

The Web Design SIG continues our basic overview of HTML.

We will look at the advantages of different servers as you're choosing a hosting company. Usually you don't have much choice over whether your host is running Windows or Apache, but it can influence the capabilities of your site.

The coding part of the evening will look at the HTML of links.

Please click the link below for more details on the session.

We're looking for volunteers to "own" each page of the website. If you'd like to learn a little bit about creating web pages and help support the club, please add your comments to the forum at pc3.org.

This is especially opportune now since our hosting company is moving us to a new server. Choose your pages.
