Conventions Used in This Book
It’s all organized; I promise. Even though it’s rather plebeian compared with finding free content for your site, lots of people worked very hard to make sure that this book follows some straightforward rules and typographical conventions.
Code listings, of which there are plenty, look like this:
<HTML> <HEAD> <SCRIPT> ... </SCRIPT> <TITLE> ... </TITLE> </HEAD> ...
HTML elements in this book are in uppercase, and their attributes are in lowercase, as in this example:
<INPUT type="hidden" name="answer" value="yes"> If the value of an attribute is in normal type, you enter it exactly as shown. If it’s in italics, it’s only a placeholder value, and you need to replace it with a real value. In the following example, you replace myownimage with the name of the image file you intend to use:
<IMG src="myownimage"> Whenever you see the URL for one of the top sites I’ve tracked down, it appears in a special typeface within the paragraph, like this: www.dummies.com. Or it may appear on a separate line, like this:
