Classes of WWW documents

There are several different kinds of WWW documents which we like to distinguish

  • Static documents

    • Authored in a markup language - bound at edit time

  • Generated documents

    • Translated from another language to HTML - bound at translation time

  • Calculated documents

    • Generated from a program - bound at document access time

  • Dynamic documents

    • Partly generated from a program - bound at browse time

In this seminar we will primarily be concerned with generated documents, and secondarily with calculated documents.
