The document provides information about Louis Tan's ICT project on the differences between web pages and websites. It includes definitions of web pages as individual documents that can be accessed through a browser and displayed, while a website is a set of related and linked web pages hosted on a web server and accessible online. The summary discusses how web pages use HTML and CSS to control formatting and layout, while images and other files are stored separately on the server. A website brings together a group of linked web pages to provide a coherent navigation structure for users.

The difference of web page
and websites

3. *Web page*

4. Web pages usually include information as to
the colours of text and backgrounds and very
often also contain links to images and sometimes
other types of media to be included in the final
view. Layout, typographic and color-scheme
information is provided by Cascading Style Sheet
(CSS) instructions, which can either be
embedded in the HTML or can be provided by a
separate file, which is referenced from within the
HTML. The latter case is especially relevant
where one lengthy stylesheet is relevant to a
whole website: due to the way HTTP works, the
browser will only download it once from the web
server and use the cached copy for the whole
site.

5. Images are stored on the web server as
separate files, but again HTTP allows for the
fact that once a web page is downloaded to
a browser, it is quite likely that related files
such as images and stylesheets will be
requested as it is processed. An HTTP 1.1
web server will maintain a connection with
the browser until all related resources have
been requested and provided. Web
browsers usually render images along with
the text and other material on the displayed
web page.

6. A web page or webpage is a document or
information resource that is suitable for the
World Wide Web and can be accessed
through a web browser and displayed on a
monitor or mobile device. This information
is usually in HTML or XHTML format, and
may provide navigation to other web pages
via hypertext links. Web pages frequently
subsume other resources such as style
sheets, scripts and images into their final
presentation.

7. Web pages may be retrieved from a local
computer or from a remote web server. The web
server may restrict access only to a private
network, e.g. a corporate intranet, or it may
publish pages on the World Wide Web. Web
pages are requested and served from web servers
using Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

8. Web pages may consist of files of static text
and other content stored within the web
server's file system (static web pages), or
may be constructed by server-side software
when they are requested (dynamic web
pages). Client-side scripting can make web
pages more responsive to user input once
on the client browser.

9. ● For "between pages" interaction:
● Hyperlinks: standard "change page" reactivity.
● Forms: providing more interaction with the server and server-side databases.
● Internal (hidden) information:
● Comments
● Linked Files through Hyperlink (Like DOC,XLS,PDF,etc).
● Metadata with semantic meta-information, Charset information, Document Type
Definition (DTD), etc.
● Diagramation and style information: information about rendered items (like image
size attributes) and visual specifications, as Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
● Scripts, usually JavaScript, complement interactivity and functionality.
● Note: on server-side the web page may also have "Processing Instruction Information
Items".
● The web page can also contain dynamically adapted information elements,
dependent upon the rendering browser or end-user location (through the use of IP
address tracking and/or "cookie" information). From a more general/wide point of
view, some information (grouped) elements, like a navigation bar, are uniform for all
website pages, like a standard. These kind of "website standard information" are
supplied by technologies like web template systems.

10. ● A web page, as an information set, can contain numerous types of information, which
is able to be seen, heard or interact by the end user:
Perceived (rendered) information:
● Textual information: with diverse render variations.
● Non-textual information:
● Static images may be raster graphics, typically GIF, JPEG or PNG; or vector formats
such as SVG or Flash.
● Animated images typically Animated GIF and SVG, but also may be Flash,
Shockwave, or Java applet.
● Audio, typically MP3, ogg or various proprietary formats.
● Video, WMV (Windows), RM (Real Media), FLV (Flash Video), MPG, MOV
(QuickTime)
● Interactive information: see interactive media.
● For "on page" interaction:
● Interactive text: see DHTML.
● Interactive illustrations: ranging from "click to play" images to games, typically using
script orchestration, Flash, Java applets, SVG, or Shockwave.
● Buttons: forms providing alternative interface, typically for use with script
orchestration and DHTML..

11. Web pages will often require more screen space than is available for a
particular display resolution. Most modern browsers will place a scrollbar (a
sliding tool at the side of the screen that allows the user to move the page up
or down, or side-to-side) in the window to allow the user to see all content.
Scrolling horizontally is less prevalent than vertical scrolling, not only because
such pages often do not print properly, but because it inconveniences the user
more so than vertical scrolling would (because lines are horizontal; scrolling
back and forth for every line is much more inconvenient than scrolling after
reading a whole screen; also most computer keyboards have page up and
down keys, and many computer mice have vertical scroll wheels, but the
horizontal scrolling equivalents are rare). When web pages are stored in a
common directory of a web server, they become a website.
A website will typically contain a group of web pages that are linked together,
or have some other coherent method of navigation. The most important web
page to have on a website is the index page. Depending on the web server
settings, this index page can have many different names, but the most
common is index.html. When a browser visits the homepage for a website, or
any URL pointing to a directory rather than a specific file, the web server will
serve the index page to the requesting browser. If no index page is defined in
the configuration, or no such file exists on the server, either an error or
directory listing will be served to the browser. A web page can either be a
single HTML file, or made up of several HTML files using frames or Server
Side Includes (SSIs).

12. Frames have been known to cause problems with web accessibility,

Frames". Minneapolis, USA: Beck & Tysver. Retrieved 2009-05-01. navigation,
printing and search engine rankingsFrames Problems - ITC Web Development,
and are now less often used than they were in the 1990s."HTML Techniques for
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 - Frames". W3C. 6 November 2000.
Retrieved 2009-05-01. "In the following sections, we discuss how to make
frames more accessible. We also provide an alternative to frames that uses
HTML 4.01 and CSS and addresses many of the limitations of today's frame
implementations." Steinmetz, Israel (2 November 1999). "Frames Free!".
Retrieved 2009-05-01.Both frames and SSIs allow certain content which
appears on many pages, such as page navigation or page headers, to be
repeated without duplicating the HTML in many files. Frames and the W3C
recommended alternative of 2000, the [[HTML element#Images and objects|
also allow some content to remain in one place while other content can be
scrolled using conventional scrollbars. Modern CSS and JavaScript client-side
techniques can also achieve all of these goals and more.
When creating a web page, it is important to ensure it conforms to the World
Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards for HTML, CSS, XML and other
standards. The W3C standards are in place to ensure all browsers which
conform to their standards can display identical content without any special
consideration for proprietary rendering techniques. A properly coded web page
is going to be accessible to many different browsers old and new alike, display
resolutions, as well as those users with audio or visual impairments.

13. #Website#

14. A website,is a set of related web pages containing content such as
text, images, video, audio, etc. A website is hosted on at least one
web server, accessible via a network such as the Internet or a
private local area network through an Internet address known as a
Uniform Resource Locator. All publicly accessible websites
collectively constitute the World Wide Web.
The pages of a website can usually be accessed from a simple
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) called the web address. The
URLs of the pages organize them into a hierarchy, although hyper
linking between them conveys the reader's perceived site structure
and guides the reader's navigation of the site which generally
includes a home page with most of the links to the site's web
content, and a supplementary about, contact and link page.

15. Some websites require a subscription to access
some or all of their content. Examples of
subscription websites include many business
sites, parts of news websites, academic journal
websites, gaming websites, file-sharing websites,
message boards, web-based email, social
networking websites, websites providing real-time
stock market data, and websites providing various
other services (e.g., websites offering storing
and/or sharing of images, files and so forth).

16. History of the websites
The World Wide Web (WWW) was created in 1990 by
CERN physicist Tim Berners-Lee.[3] On 30 April 1993,
CERN announced that the World Wide Web would be
free to use for anyone.[4] Before the introduction of
HTML and HTTP, other protocols such as File Transfer
Protocol and the gopher protocol were used to retrieve
individual files from a server. These protocols offer a
simple directory structure which the user navigates and
chooses files to download. Documents were most often
presented as plain text files without formatting, or were
encoded in word processor formats.

17. A static website is one that has web pages stored on the server in the
format that is sent to a client web browser. It is primarily coded in
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML).
Simple forms or marketing examples of websites, such as classic
website, a five-page website or a brochure website are often static
websites, because they present pre-defined, static information to the
user. This may include information about a company and its products
and services through text, photos, animations, audio/video and
interactive menus and navigation.
This type of website usually displays the same information to all visitors.
Similar to handing out a printed brochure to customers or clients, a static
website will generally provide consistent, standard information for an
extended period of time. Although the website owner may make updates
periodically, it is a manual process to edit the text, photos and other
content and may require basic website design skills and software.
In summary, visitors are not able to control what information they receive
via a static website, and must instead settle for whatever content the
website owner has decided to offer at that time.

18. content and HTML markup are manipulated
directly within the editor program
●
●WYSIWYG offline editors, such as Microsoft
FrontPage and Adobe Dreamweaver (previously
Macromedia Dreamweaver), with which the site is
edited using a GUI interface and the final HTML
markup is generated automatically by the editor
software
●
●WYSIWYG online editors which create media
rich online presentation like web pages, widgets,
intro, blogs, and other documents.
●
●Template-based editors, such as RapidWeaver
and iWeb, which allow users to quickly create and
upload web pages to a web server without

19. Types of websites

20. Type of Description
Website
Affiliate A site, typically few in pages, whose purpose is to sell a third party's
product. The seller receives a commission for facilitating the sale.
Affiliate Enabled portal that renders not only its custom CMS but also
syndicated content from other content providers for an agreed fee.
Agency There are usually three relationship tiers. Affiliate Agencies
Archive site Used to preserve valuable electronic content threatened with
extinction. Two examples are: Internet Archive, which since 1996 has
preserved billions of old (and new) web pages; and Google Groups,
which in early 2005 was archiving over 845,000,000 messages
posted to Usenet news/discussion groups.
Attack site A site created specifically to attack visitors computers on their first
visit to a website by downloading a file (usually a trojan horse). These
websites rely on unsuspecting users with poor anti-virus protection in
their computers
Blog (web Sites generally used to post online diaries which may include
discussion forums (e.g., blogger, Xanga). Many bloggers use blogs
log) like an editorial section of a newspaper to express their ideas on
anything ranging from politics to religion to video games to parenting,
along with anything in between. Some bloggers are professional
bloggers and they are paid to blog about a certain subject, and they
are usually found on news sites.

21. Brand building A site with the purpose of creating an experience of a brand
online. These sites usually do not sell anything, but focus on
site building the brand. Brand building sites are most common for low-
value, high-volume fast moving consumer goods (FMCG).
Celebrity A website whose information revolves around a celebrity. This
sites can be official (endorsed by the celebrity) or fan made (run
website by his/her fan, fans, without implicit endorsement).
Click-to- A website that allows the visitor to donate to charity simply by
clicking on a button or answering a question correctly. An
donate site advertiser usually donates to the charity for each correct answer
generated.
Community A site where persons with similar interests communicate with
each other, usually by chat or message boards.
site
Content site Sites whose business is the creation and distribution of original
content
Corporate Used to provide background information about a business,
organization, or service.
website
Dating A site where users can find other single people looking for long
range relationships, dating, or just friends.
website
Electronic A site offering goods and services for online sale and enabling
commerce (e- online transactions for such sales.
commerce) site

22. Forum website A site where people discuss various topics.
Gallery Website A website designed specifically for use as a Gallery, these
may be an art gallery or photo gallery and of commercial or
non-commercial nature.
Government Site A website made by the local, state, department or national
government of a country. Usually these sites also operate
websites that are intended to inform tourists or support
tourism.
Gripe site A site devoted to the criticism of a person, place, corporation,
government, or institution
Gaming website A site that lets users play online games. Some enable people
to gamble online.
Gambling website
Humor site Satirizes, parodies or otherwise exists solely to amuse.
Information site Most websites could fit in this type of website to some extent
many of them are not necessarily for commercial purposes

23. The Difference Between
Website and Web Page

24. This is incorrect as web page is just a subset of website and a
website may be anything from a single web page to hundreds of
web pages linked together through navigational links. A simple
definition of a website is a collection of web pages.
When we talk of a website, we refer to a huge amount of
information spread over many pages but when we talk of a web
page we are referring to a screen shoot which is a small subset of
the website and can be used for a particular purpose. The
differences between a web page and a website can be
summarized under these criteria.

25. A webpage is what you see through your browser by scrolling the
window up and down. A website is composed of a group of
webpages linked together. A complete website is usually fairly self-
contained, with pages created and maintained by the same authors
and often stored on a single computer. The pages may link to other
pages that are not part of that site. We'll take a look at how to find
out more about websites later in this section.
As with libraries, websites vary in size and complexity. For
example, the Valley Library's website is a distinct site, but is also
part of the larger OSU website. This tutorial is a separate website
with links to various pages on the Library's site (and elsewhere). As
you'll see, both this tutorial site and the Library's site link to many
other pages on other websites.

26. A website is a collection of one or more web pages
designed to convey information on a particular
subject or theme to a web user. (e.g. a company
will have a web site providing structured
information about the company, designed to inform
particular groups of its stakeholders - investors,
customers, technical support, sales, employment,
news items etc.)
A web page is one screen full of information (from
a web site) that may contain links to other pages in
the web site or links to external information. The
web page will normally be written as (or rendered
as) an HTML document

27. Examples
A website is a company, or association, for
ex: google, yahoo, facebook ... etc..
A web page is one page od the web. for ex.
this page infront of you is a web page, a
website could contain millions of web pages.
