This trimester will be focused on the Internet / Web. We will cover fundamentals concepts of the web (Hypertext, HTML, HTTP, CSS), while making connections to scripting, using Python when possible, and other scripting languages (such as JavaScript) when appropriate.
Possible topics

- Form Basics (including GET vs. POST, HTTP)
- File Uploading (via a form)

- Image Maps
- Auto-refresh & Redirection
- Connecting to a database in Python
- MySQL/Database Basics
- Vector Graphics / SVG (+ scripting!?)
