Preliminary Course Information
TDDB64 Webbprogrammering och interaktivitet, 3 poäng
For C3, CII, CS1, D3, etc.
Period 3, 2006/2007
General Information
The course covers an overview of general Web architectures, HTML, DHTML, XML, JSP/PHP, and
basic/intermediate Java programming. The course consists of a number of lectures and a series of
programming assignments, where students practice Web programming techniques. The course
TDDB69 Advanced Web programming is a project course that builds on this course.
Goal
The goal of the course is to learn the principles for interactive Web programming. After the course,
the students should be familiar with current techniques, such as CGI-scripts, DHTML, XML, JSP/
PHP, and various aspects of Java programming. Moreover, the students should know the state-of-theart in terms of the Java language, available development tools, and library packages, and should have
practiced the implementation of a Java-based system.
Prerequisites
An introductory course in an imperative, functional, or object-oriented language, such as TDDA 11,
TDDB 92–93, TDDB 25, TDIU 10, TDDB 33. Familiarity with C and C++, including network and
distributed systems, is advantageous but not a strict requirement.
