Web Coding Workflow<br />

ommend, or enforce, the usage of the element to include flash animations<br />

or applications in Web pages. is not part of any standardized<br />

version of HTML, and this practice produces invalid markup.<br />

• The validator complains about “&” or other symbols in code: You will need<br />

to replace the & and other complaint symbols with the HTML character code that<br />

stands for it. For instance, & = &amp;<br />

For other common errors, be sure to check the http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/<br />

problems.html and the http://validator.w3.org/docs/help.html#faq-doctype pages.<br />

Errors vs. Warnings<br />

Validation warnings must be corrected before the web page code is considered valid<br />

to HTML standards. However, you may get the full validation and still have warnings.<br />

Why?<br />

W3C Validator notes and warnings highlight missing or conflicting information which<br />

caused the validator to perform some guesswork prior to validation, or other code affecting<br />

the output below the warning item. If the guess or fallback is incorrect, it could make<br />

validation results entirely incoherent. It is highly recommended to check these potential<br />

issues, and, if necessary, fix them and re-validate the document.<br />

Uploading Your Page<br />

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) program will allow you to upload your files from your<br />

local computer to the Web host you choose. Each FTP program has interface differences,<br />

but here is the gist of the process:<br />

• Open the FTP program.<br />

• Input your web host, username, and password that you received or set up with<br />

the Web host you chose. Example: Host = mydomain.com, Username= mylogin,<br />

Password = mypassword.<br />

• You can likely ignore the Port unless your web host informed you to choose a<br />

specific one.<br />

• Choose the connect option (button or on the toolbar of the FTP program).<br />
