Web
browsers have a default color scheme that they apply to the background and text of the pages they
retrieve.
|
|
2.
|
In
most cases, a browsers default color scheme involves gray text on a black
background.
|
|
3.
|
The
style to define the background color is backcolor: color.
|
|
4.
|
The
font sizes in HTML correspond to point sizes that you are familiar with if you have experience in
desktop publishing.
|
|
5.
|
If
you specify red text on a gray background for the Web page body, all elements within the page inherit
that color combination unless you specify different styles for specific elements.
|
|
6.
|
If an
interlaced graphic is large, it might take several minutes for the entire image to display, which can
frustrate visitors to your Web page.
|
|
7.
|
The
process by which you create a transparent color is independent of the graphics software you are
using.
|
|
8.
|

span element is just a marker; browsers do not format the content unless you also add a style to the
element.
|
|
11.
|

|
|
13.
|
The
span element is an inline element and cannot be placed within a block-level element.

Users
do not need to have the Flash player installed on their computers in order to view a Flash
animation.
|
|
15.
|
Changing an images dimensions within the browser changes the file
size.
|
|
16.
|
Because of the way that browsers work with inline images, it is a good idea to specify
the height and width of an image even if you are not trying to change its dimensions.
|
|
17.
|
When
a browser encounters an inline image, it calculates the image size and then uses this information to
lay out the page.
|
|
18.
|
When
a user clicks a hotspot on a client-side image map, the coordinates where the user clicked are sent
to a program running on the server.
|
|
19.
|
With
a client-side image map, because all the processing is done locally, you can easily test your Web
pages using the HTML files stored on your computer.
|
|
20.
|
You
can only have one <area> tag within each <map> tag.
|
|
21.
|
The
shape attribute has three possible values: rect, circle, and
square.
|
|
22.
|
The
coordinates (123, 45) refer to a point 123 pixels from the right edge and 45 pixels down from the
top.
|
|
23.
|
You
can use the value nohref in place of a URL if you do not want a hotspot to activate a
hypertext link.
|
|
24.
|
Two
points define a rectangular hotspot: the upper-right corner and the lower-left corner.
|
|
25.
|
To
create a polygonal hotspot, you enter the coordinates for each vertex in the shape.
|
|
26.
|
You
have to place an ampersand before the image map name with the usemap attribute in the <img>
tag.
|
|
27.
|
Older
browsers support background images for any page element.
|
|
28.
|
If
you need to create a map element using XHTML-compliant code, you should include both the name and id
attributes within the map element, setting them to the same value.
|
|
29.
|
You
should use foreground colors that contrast well with the background.
|
Modified True/False

|
Selecting color with HTML is somewhat more intuitive than with a WYSIWYG
program because HTML is a text-based language, requiring you to define your colors in textual terms.
_________________________

Software programs, such as your Web browser, define color mathematically.

A
decimal is a number expressed in base 16 rather than in the base 10 form we use every day.

When
your browser retrieves a background image file, it repeatedly inserts the image into the background,
in a process called montaging, until the entire display window is filled up.
_________________________
|
|
35.
|
One
approach to retaining the consistency of Web page text is to use absolute units, which express
font size relative to the size of a standard character on the output device.
_________________________
|
|
36.
|
Relative units define a font size using one of five standard units of
measurement. _________________________
|
|
|
|
|
37.
|
The
image shown in the figure above is a nonintegrated image.
_________________________
|
|
38.
|
The
effect of noninterlacing is that the image starts out as a blurry representation of the final
image, and then gradually comes into focus. _________________________

|
Different output devices have different resolutions, which are typically expressed in
terms of dpi. _________________________

|
Hotspots are defined for an image through the use of image matrixes.
_________________________
|
|
44.
|
An
image map lists all the boundaries of all hotspots within a particular image.
_________________________
|
|
45.
|
Client-side image maps can be slow to operate, since every time a user clicks
the inline image, the request is sent to the Web server for processing.
_________________________
|
|
46.
|
An
advantage of server-side image maps is that, when a user clicks a link, the information does
not have to be sent over the network or dial-up connection. _________________________
|
|
47.
|
In a
server-side image map, when a user moves the pointer over the inline image, the browsers
status bar displays the target of each hotspot. _________________________
