What is web design ? how many types of layout and language ?

Web design is the process of creating websites. It encompasses several different aspects, including webpage, layout, content production, and graphic design. While the terms web design and web development are often used interchangeably, web design is technically a subset of the broader category of web development.

There are 3 types of website layout design:-

         

         1.static website

         2.dynamic website

         3.responsible website 

There are many types of language uses in web design

   1. HTML(Hypertext markup language)- The hypertext markup language is the standard way of presenting data in a web browser. which is used to apply content to a website such as text, table and image.

    2.CSS(Cascading Style-Sheets)-Cascading-Style-Sheets, isn't much of a language, but more as a subset of HTML that can be used to style your websites, such as color and image. 

    3.Javascript - simple client-side scripting language. which is  used to add special effects to your page, such as animation, or hover effect. but it has some limitations.

      MySQL Database-it is commonly used with php to make databases, such as mailing list, shopping cart and forums etc.

           

     4.PHP(Hypertext Preprocessor) - a server-side programming language,that can be embedded directly into HTML coding. it is can be used to work with databases, and work with files on the server (things   Javascript can't do). PHP is very similar to the C programming language.It can be used on all major operating systems and supports most web servers.

     5.ASP(Active Server Pages)- ASP is Microsoft's solution to dynamic, interactive web pages. ASP are web pages that contain scripts in addition to the standard HTML tags.Active Server Pages have an .asp extension. ASP is very similar VB programming. advantage of ASP is that it is language-independent and therefore is easy to use across all     platforms and applications.

     6.JSP(Java Server Pages)- JSP is a web design language developed by Sun Microsystems. It is used to control web page content via servlets,which are little programs that run on a web server. These servlets modify the web page on the server prior to it being displayed within a web browser.The JSP technology enables you to combine regular, static       HTML with dynamically generated HTML.

      7.XML(Extensible Markup Language)-XML is a flexible way to create common information formats and share both the format and the data on the World Wide Web, intranets, and elsewhere.XML, a formal     recommendation from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), is similar to the language of today's Web pages, the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). Both XML and HTML contain markup symbols to describe the contents of a page or file.

      8.ColdFusion

         ColdFusion, developed by Macromedia, is used to build and serve web pages. It consists of ColdFusion Studio, which is used to create web         pages, and ColdFusion Server, which is used to display the web pages. One of the best features of ColdFusion is the ability to create web pages 'on the fly' from content stored within a database. Although     it is very reliable, ColdFusion may be better suited for larger companie rather than individuals, as it is fairly expensive.

    9.PERL/CGL-: Which is server-side scripting languages, but PHP or ASP will almost always do what you need anyway. 

      10.RSS- which is used to create subscribable feeds, commonly used for blogs, but also used for websites that update content often.
