Meeting Overview:

Many of us have used HTML or at least heard of using HTML for website development - the well known industry standard. But now, look out HTML, DHTML is coming to town! Dynamic HTML is evolving into a set of Internet technologies that lets developers combine the power of HTML, Java and scripting languages to make impressive leaps in functionality. Some new benefits and improvements include:

• Look and Feel. Designers can create richer layouts and stronger interactivity features.
• Object Models. With the ability to use document object models, users and Webmasters can maneuver objects on a Web page independently of one another.
• Illusion of Speed. More information can be transmitted with the original Web page, freeing up overburdened Web servers and giving the user the illusion of speedier access.

Join us at the next Association for Women in Computing, Puget Sound chapter event, and learn about DHTML. Enrich your awareness and knowledge by attending the Introduction to Dynamic HTML program. Learn how you can use it to make your web sites and web applications richer and more interactive.

April's speaker, Sara Williams is the lead program manager for Microsoft's Internet Explorer, where she is responsible for layout and rendering. Before joining the Internet Explorer team, Sara worked in Microsoft's Developer Relations Group, where she managed a team of evangelists who helped key software developers implement solutions based on Microsoft technologies. Prior to joining Microsoft in 1991, Sara earned a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science/Math from the University of Puget Sound.
