IP

Internet Protocol
TCP/IP overview
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the most popular network protocol, and the basis for the Internet. Its routing capabilities provide maximum flexibility in an enterprise-wide network. In Windows XP TCP/IP is automatically installed.

IT

Information Technology is a term that encompasses all forms of technology used to create, store, exchange, and use information in its various forms (business data, voice conversations, still images, motion pictures, multimedia presentations, and other forms, including those not yet conceived). It's a convenient term for including both telephony and computer technology in the same word. It is the technology that is driving what has often been called "the information revolution."

J

Java

A program language used in many aplications from software development, consumer electronics like your cell phone to internet solutions such as a online shopping and data base update. Many companies use Java because it is platform independence meaning it can run on any computer from the PC, Mac to huge mainframes.

JavaScript

A program language used within an html. <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> JavaScript and Java are not related. they are two different types of languages.

jsp

JavaServer Pages (JSP) is a Java technology that allows software developers to dynamically generate HTML, XML or other types of documents in response to a Web client request. The technology allows Java code and certain pre-defined actions to be embedded into static content.

The JSP syntax adds additional XML-like tags, called JSP actions, to be used to invoke built-in functionality. Additionally, the technology allows for the creation of JSP tag libraries that act as extensions to the standard HTML or XML tags. Tag libraries provide a platform independent way of extending the capabilities of a Web server.

JSPs are compiled into Java Servlets by a JSP compiler. A JSP compiler may generate a servlet in Java code that is then compiled by the Java compiler, or it may generate byte code for the servlet directly.

"JavaServer Pages" is a technology released by Sun.

Julian calendar

The Julian calendar was introduced in 46 BC by Julius Caesar and took force in 45 BC (709 ab urbe condita). It was chosen after consultation with the astronomer Sosigenes of Alexandria and was probably designed to approximate the tropical year, known at least since Hipparchus. It has a regular year of 365 days divided into 12 months, and a leap day is added to February every four years. Hence the Julian year is on average 365.25 days long.

Before the new calendar took effect, the start of the calendar year (1 January) was realigned to the tropical year by making 46 BC 445 days long. The Julian months were formed by adding 10 days to the months of the regular pre-Julian Roman year of 355 days. Two extra days were added to January, July and December, and one extra day was added to April, June, September and November. Macrobius states that the extra days were added immediately before the last day of each month to avoid disturbing the position of the established Roman fasti (days prescribed for certain events) relative to the start of the month. However, since Roman dates after the Ides of the month counted down towards the start of the next month, the extra days had the effect of raising the initial value of the count for the day after the Ides.

L

LAN

A Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network covering a small local area, like a home, office, or small group of buildings such as a home, office, or college. Current LANs are most likely to be based on switched Ethernet or Wi-Fi technology running at 10, 100 or 1,000 Mbit/s (1,000 Mbit/s is also known as 1 Gbit/s).

The defining characteristics of LANs in contrast to WANs (wide area networks) are: a) much higher data rates, b) smaller geographic range - at most a few kilometers - and c) they do not involve leased telecommunication lines. "LAN" usually does not refer to data running over local analog telephone lines, as on a private branch exchange (PBX).

lock file

.lck file. A file that can be updated by multiple processes must be locked to ensure that only a single process can update it at any given time. Lock files are a simple locking technique that associates a data file with another file serving as a lock. When the lock file exists, its associated data file is considered locked and other processes are not allowed to access it. If the lock file doesn't exist, a process that wishes to update the data file first creates a lock file and then updates the data file. When the file updating is completed, that process deletes the lock file.

M

MAC address

Short for Media Access Control address, a hardware address that uniquely identifies each node of a network. In IEEE 802 networks, the Data Link Control (DLC) layer of the OSI Reference Model is divided into two sublayers: the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer and the Media Access Control (MAC) layer. The MAC layer interfaces directly with the network medium. Consequently, each different type of network medium requires a different MAC layer.

mp3

MPEG1 Audio Layer 3. Audio file compression format with CD quality. A standard on the Internet.

MX record

An MX record or Mail exchange record is a type of resource record in the Domain Name System (DNS) specifying how Internet e-mail should be routed. MX records point to the servers to send an e-mail to, and which ones it should be sent to first, by priority.

When an e-mail message is sent through the Internet, the sending mail transfer agent makes a DNS query requesting the MX record for the recipient's domain name, which is the portion of the e-mail address following the "@". This query returns a list of host names of mail exchange servers accepting incoming mail for that domain, together with a preference number. The sending agent then attempts to establish an SMTP connection to one of these servers, starting with the one with the smallest preference number, delivering the message to the first server with which a connection can be made. If no MX records were present, a second request is made for the A record of the domain instead.

The MX mechanism provides the ability to run multiple mail servers for a single domain and the order in which they should be tried, increasing the likelihood that mail may be delivered and providing the ability to distribute the processing of incoming mail across multiple physical servers.

The MX mechanism does not grant the ability to provide mail service on alternative ports, nor does it provide the ability to distribute mail delivery across a set of equal-priority mail servers by assigning a weighting value to each one. As of 2004, some MTAs, most notably exim, now support the use of SRV records for publishing the IP addresses, ports, priority, and weights of mail servers.

The Original & Best. Genuine Freeware Site - Since 1995

Nonags is the safest place on the Internet to download free software from. Before we list anything here we check for viruses, trojans, spyware etc. And even if we find something clean, it still has to pass our special "cheesetest" which for obvious reasons we do not publish exact specs. NonagsPlus is even safer, downloads are from our server and files can't be switched after we list them. Sure all this means a lot of work for us, but it's what brings our visitors back for years... and that's how we like it.

OLE

Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) is a distributed object system and protocol developed by Microsoft.

OLE allows an editor to "farm out" part of a document to another editor and then reimport it. For example, a desktop publishing system might send some text to a word processor or a picture to a bitmap editor using OLE. The main benefit of using OLE, next to reduced file size, is the ability to create a master file. References to data in this file can be made and the master file can then have changed data which will then take effect in the referenced document.

Its primary use is for managing compound documents, but it is also used for transferring data between different applications using drag and drop and clipboard operations. The concept of "embedding" is also central to much use of multimedia in Web pages, which tend to embed video, animation (include Flash animations), and music files within the HTML code.

Perl

Perl, also Practical Extraction and Report Language (a backronym) is an interpreted procedural programming language.

Perl is a general-purpose programming language originally developed for text manipulation and now used for a wide range of tasks including system administration, web development, network programming, GUI development, and more. The language is intended to be practical (easy to use, efficient, complete) rather than beautiful (tiny, elegant, minimal). Its major features are that it's easy to use, supports both procedural and object-oriented (OO) programming, has powerful built-in support for text processing, and has one of the world's most impressive collections of third-party modules.

PHP

PHP, which stands for "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor" is a widely-used Open Source general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML. Its syntax draws upon C, Java, and Perl, and is easy to learn. The main goal of the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically generated webpages quickly, but you can do much more with PHP.

pixel

A pixel (short for picture element, using the common abbreviation "pix" for "picture") is one of the many tiny dots that make up the representation of a picture in a computer's memory. Each such information element is not really a dot, nor a square, but an abstract sample. With care, pixels in an image can be reproduced at any size without the appearance of visible dots or squares; but in many contexts, they are reproduced as dots or squares.

png

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) PNG was created to both improve upon and replace the GIF format with an image file format that does not require a patent license to use. PNG is supported by the libpng reference library, a platform-independent library that contains C functions for handling PNG images. PNG files nearly always use the MIME media type image/png.

Robots

The Robots Exclusion Protocol is a method that allows Web site administrators to indicate to visiting robots which parts of their site should not be visited by the robot.

The Robots META tag
The Robots META tag allows HTML authors to indicate to visiting robots if a document may be indexed, or used to harvest more links. No server administrator action is required. Note that currently only a few robots implement this.
In this simple example:
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">

RSS

Really Simple Syndication - RSS is a family of web feed formats, specified in XML and used for Web syndication. RSS is used by (among other things) news Web sites, weblogs and podcasting. Web feeds provide web content or summaries of web content together with links to the full versions of the content, and other metadata. RSS, in particular, delivers this information as an XML file called an RSS feed, webfeed, RSS stream, or RSS channel. In addition to facilitating syndication, web feeds allow a website's frequent readers to track updates on the site using an aggregator.

Aggregators reduce the time and effort needed to regularly check websites of interest for updates, creating a unique information space or "personal newspaper." An aggregator is able to subscribe to a feed, check for new content at user-determined intervals, and retrieve the content. The content is sometimes described as being "pulled" to the subscriber, as opposed to "pushed" with email or IM. Unlike recipients of some "pushed" information, the aggregator user can easily unsubscribe from a feed.

SEM

Search Engine Marketing - Search engine marketing is any legal activity intended to bring traffic from a search portal to another Website. The term search engine marketing, therefore, covers a lot of ground. Wherever people search the Web, whatever they search for, and wherever the search results come from—if you’re trying to reach out to target visitors, you’re undertaking search engine marketing. The goal of SEM is to increase the levels of high-quality, targeted traffic to a Website.

SEO

Search Engine Optimization - The function of SEO is to improve a Website’s position within the organic search results for specific search terms, and to increase the overall traffic the site garners from crawler-based search engines. This is accomplished through a combination of on-page content and off-page promotion (such as directory submissions).

SMTP

An SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server is the server that is used for your out going mail

SMTP is a relatively simple, text-based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are specified (and in most cases verified to exist) and then the message text is transferred. It is quite easy to test a SMTP server using the telnet program.

SMTP uses TCP port 25. To determine the SMTP server for a given domain name, the MX (Mail eXchange) DNS record is used.

SQL

(Structured Query Language) the language that allows us to join tables together in a relational database.

SSID

Short for service set identifier, a 32-character unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that acts as a password when a mobile device tries to connect to the BSS. The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. A device will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. Because an SSID can be sniffed in plain text from a packet it does not supply any security to the network. An SSID is also referred to as a network name because essentially it is a name that identifies a wireless network.

summation

The act or process of adding or totaling: addition. A concluding statement containing a summary or principal points.

SVG

This specification defines the features and syntax for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).

SVG is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics in XML [XML10]. SVG allows for three types of graphic objects: vector graphic shapes (e.g., paths consisting of straight lines and curves), images and text. Graphical objects can be grouped, styled, transformed and composited into previously rendered objects. The feature set includes nested transformations, clipping paths, alpha masks, filter effects and template objects.

SVG drawings can be interactive and dynamic. Animations can be defined and triggered either declaratively (i.e., by embedding SVG animation elements in SVG content) or via scripting.

Sophisticated applications of SVG are possible by use of a supplemental scripting language which accesses SVG Document Object Model (DOM), which provides complete access to all elements, attributes and properties. A rich set of event handlers such as onmouseover and onclick can be assigned to any SVG graphical object. Because of its compatibility and leveraging of other Web standards, features like scripting can be done on XHTML and SVG elements simultaneously within the same Web page.

tables

sample:

cell 1

cell 2

Code:

	
<TABLE CELLPADDING="4" BORDER="1" WIDTH="50%" bordercolor="#6699CC">
    <TR><TD>cell 1</TD>
        <TD>cell 2</TD>
    </TR>
</TABLE>

You do a lot with tables as far as graphic design (Example 1). Tables can have background colors or images with no borders. I think that they were first created for the porpose of, hense it's name tables (Example 2), but then artists took it to the limit on graphics before the birth of CSS (Cascading StyleSheets)
Tables have rows <TR> and coloms <TD>. I don't know why they didn't name this tag <TC> but anyway it stands for table data colum.
