Final Project The final project for the course will be Monday, May 20, 2002.

Lecture 14: Security and Privacy The last lecture of the course is available. We discuss security and privacy issues.

Assignment 7: Link Checking and Log Analysis This is a fun (and fairly short) assignment on link checking and log analysis. Extensive documentation is available in the assignment itself as well as in the lecture notes (Lecture 14). Remember that your lowest assignment score will be dropped (6 of the 7 assignments will count toward your final course score).

Lecture 13: Webmaster Tools The penultimate lecture of the course is available via streaming media. We will discuss various software tools that should be in a webmaster's toolbox -- especially those involving link checking and log analysis.

Assignment 6 Extension: Due Monday, May 6 A class-wide extension for the due date of Assignment 6 has been given. Assignment 6 is due Monday, May 6, 2002. If you already have it done, congratulations, and enjoy the weekend!

Lecture 12: The Apache HTTP Server The twelfth lecture of the course is available via streaming media. We will finish up our discussion of the Apache HTTP server.

Assignment 6: HTTP and the Apache HTTP Server Assignment 6 is now available. The assignment has two major parts: the first is using HTTP; the second is using .htaccess files to customize the behavior of the Apache HTTP server. This assignment is very different from previous ones -- take a look at it now and begin it early! A careful review of the lecture notes should be a tremendous help in completing this assignment. It will be due Monday, May 6, 2002.

Lecture 11: HTTP and the Apache HTTP Server The eleventh lecture of the course is available via streaming media. We will look at the underlying communication between a browser and Web server (HyperText Transfer Protocol -- HTTP), and also we begin our look at the Apache HTTP server.
