Building Dynamic Websites (Harvard)

According to Harvard:

Computer Science E-75: Building Dynamic Websites is a course at Harvard Extension School. It is part of the school’s Distance Education Program, which means that students can take this course via the Internet. Today’s websites are increasingly dynamic. Pages are no longer static HTML files but instead generated by scripts and database calls. User interfaces are more seamless, with technologies like Ajax replacing traditional page reloads. This course teaches students how to build dynamic websites with Ajax and with Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP (LAMP), one of today’s most popular frameworks. Students learn how to set up domain names with DNS, how to structure pages with XHTML and CSS, how to program in JavaScript and PHP, how to configure Apache and MySQL, how to design and query databases with SQL, and how to use Ajax with both XML and JSON. The course discusses issues of security, scalability, and cross-browser support. Visit us on the Web at www.cs75.net.
