| Prerequisites/Audience | This series is for anyone who needs to understand how JavaScript is used to develop pages for the World Wide Web. |
| Requirements/Materials Included | The following are the minimum user system requirements necessary to enjoy maximum access to the HTML-based courses: 200MHz Pentium with 32MB Ram. 640 x 480 256-color video (800x600 is recommended). Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, or XP Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher required. An Authorware plug-in is used for course simulations but is not required to run the courses. It can be installed the first time you take a course by following the instructions shown on the Web page. The Macromedia Flash Player is used for course introductions and activities, but is not required to run the courses. It can be installed the first time you take a course by following the instructions shown at login. Netscape and AOL browsers are not supported. We do not formally support our courseware on the Macintosh platform. If you choose to try to use the courses on a Macintosh, you need to be aware that they will not have full functionality, specifically within the Authorware simulations and the supplied files. However, if you are a Macintosh user and make use of a Windows emulator, Authorware simulations and supplied files may function. Since we do not test with Macintosh or Windows emulators, we cannot guarantee our courses on the Macintosh platform. The courses play well through 56 KB modems. Of course, play is faster as connection speeds increase. The traditional HTML-based courses are designed for highly efficient, real-time presentation with an average page size under 20 K. The Business Skills Video courses use streaming media at a rate of 15 Frames Per Second. The media is sent in a continuous stream and is played as it arrives rather than waiting for the complete file to download. |
