iii. Abstract
I have family and friends in different parts of the world, like Australia,
England and Kenya, and many of
them have access to the Internet. For the purpose of staying in touch and
keeping up, and because phone
calls can be difficult at times because of the huge time differences, I
think it will be useful to have a
personal website where my friends can go to and catch up on what I have been
up to. A personal website can
be accessed at any time.

iv. What
For the project, all the information displayed on the website will be
fictitious.
There will be a home page. The home page will have several links as follows:
link to a page that displays
a weekly blog; a link to a page that displays media files that have been
taken on trips or on other occasions
like birthday celebrations; a link to a page that displays a map of places
visited - the locations will be
hyperlinked to various media so that viewers can view the photos, videos etc
taken at those locations; and
finally a link to news items of interest.

v. Why
I have family and friends in different parts of the world, like Australia,
England and Kenya and many of
them have access to the Internet. Since we don't see each other often
enough, and phone calls can be
difficult at times because of the huge time differences, I think it will be
useful to have a personal
website where my friends can go to and catch up on what I have been up to.
With a personal website they
can access it at any time they wish.


vi. How
This project will use the following resources and more (basically all the
tools we have used up to now in Projects 1 to 4):
XML; XHTML; XPath; JAXP; XML Schema; Cascading Style Sheets; Firefox,
Internet Explorer, Netscape - ideally the website should work in
all browsers. If not then it should at least work in IE; JDK 1.4.2; Java
Advanced Imaging (JAI) 1.1.2; and JIMI Software
Development Kit; Tomcat 5.5.16 and it's compatibility package; Java Servlet;
DTD; SVG; Java will be used.
I am going to have to research all the topics mentioned above in more detail
especially Java Server Pages, Servlet, XML,
XHTML, XPath, DTD and CSS.


vii. Questions
As in project 2 are there grids, similar to Great Britain’s grid for the
U.S. ad other parts of the world, like Australia?
