This unit introduces students to the fundamental concepts involved in creating applications that are Web based. The emphasis of this unit is placed on the technologies that can be used instead of programming theory. Topics will be organised around two technologies programmers can use to create their Web pages. The unit discusses forms processing and how it is handledwith CGI technology in a Unix environment or ASP technology in an NT environment. It exposes students to Web scripting technology that can be used in both environments.

Students gain experience with the basics of how web applications work in a 'stateless' environment. Basic graphical user interface components like buttons, labels, textfields and checkboxes are introduced. The unit will reinforce database concepts in the design of applications and how some integrity rules can be enforced using client side scripting. The students will gain experience in the restricted user interface design by recognising the limitations of a WEB connection. It has been suggested that this unit should be prohibited with the new unit{\uri BUS1042 (ADT) , but I don't think there is real overlap in the unit themes. But I would ask proposers to reflect upon this.}

This unit introduces students to the development of application that are Web based. Emphasis is placed on technologies that are important for commercial applications.
