    Abstract
    Introduces a new 'How do they do that?' feature dedicated to explaining Web developer tools. Begins with CGIs, using the example of Web site visitor counters to explain key concepts. Provides background on how the Web works, with a high level overview of protocol stacks, TCP/IP, HTTP and HTML. Contrasts the differences between programs and scripts, scripts being executable files that are not compiled. The addition of CGI scripts to a Web server can pose security risks if not handled properly. The Web offers many downloadable CGI scripts for basic functions, including counters, timers, guest books, image maps, and server-push animations

    Abstract
    The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has worked well in the rapid establishment of HTML standards but it has been criticized for not assuring compliance and in June 1998 a new organization, the Web Standards Project (WSP) was formed. Membership is free to individuals and at present consists of Web designers and W3C members. Describes the stages in the implementation of standards and focuses on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). A style sheet is essentially a template that can be used to create a consistent appearance across documents. 'Cascading' means that a single page can use multiple style sheets. Explains how style sheets can replace HTML tags, using the example of fonts, and why CSS is a greater attraction to designers than to Web users. Outlines the current state of the CSS standard and predicts that Web users will be adopting it sooner or later

    Abstract
    This article examines the entry of the major academic publishing houses into the WWW publishing. The study identified that during 1997, traditional academic publishers made significant commitments to putting tables of content, abstracts, and the full-text of their print journals on the Web. At the same time, new services and organizations emerged that could ultimately compete with, or eliminate, the need for certain segments of the industry. The authors suggest that these early experiments in Web publishing began unevenly with areas that needed improvement. The article concludes with a discussion about the implications of the traditional academic publisher's presence on the Web
