Study Notes
Introduction to the Internet
- A connection of computers using the Internet Protocol (IP)
- IP is the method by which data is sent from one computer to another on the internet
- Key aspects include decentralized control, open standards (anyone can create a new internet device), and everyone can use it with simple software.
Internet Layered Architecture
- OSI Model Layers: The internet uses layers to organize and process data in a structured way.
- Physical: Hardware for sending and receiving data (ethernet, modems, coaxial cables)
- Data Link: Handles data transfer between physical links on a network.
- Network: Determines the physical path data takes to its destination.
- Transport: Ensures data delivery reliability and error correction.
- Session: Manages the setup and termination of connections between communicating endpoints.
- Presentation: Transforms data into a format that the application layer can use (e.g., encryption).
- Application: Layer interacted with by web users (e.g., browser, email, ftp).
Internet Protocol (IP)
- Specifies the format of packets (datagrams) and addressing scheme.
- Local IP addresses are identified by commands such as
ifconfig
oripconfig
.
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
- Adds multiplexing and guaranteed message delivery to the IP protocol.
- Multiplexing allows sending different data types across a single communication channel.
- TCP uses ports to assign each application a unique port number on a device, enabling multiple services to run simultaneously.
- Multiple programs can use the same IP address on a given device.
World Wide Web (WWW)
- Part of the internet that is accessible through websites.
- Evolution through time from the 1960s-2000s, including the development of notable browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer.
- Integral part of modern life
- Web servers are computers serving web pages.
- Web Browser software is used to locate, retrieve and display content.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
- Protocol that defines message formatting and transmission for web requests.
- HTTP has methods for various tasks such as reading, creating, updating and deleting resources (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH etc.).
- HTTP response codes show server status after handling a request(e.g., 200 OK, 404 Not Found, etc).
- Mime Types help specify data types and content formats (e.g. text/html, text/plain).
Other Web Technologies
- HTML : HyperText Markup Language - used for basic webpage structure
- CSS : Cascading Style Sheets - used to style webpages
- Javascript - used to control the behavior of web pages
- PHP - Server-side language used to dynamically create web pages.
AJAX
- Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) makes it possible to update portions of a web page without refreshing the whole page.
- XML, JSON used for representing data for fast and efficient exchange between computers.
- SQL (Structured Query Language): a relational database language for asking, retrieving, or updating data in a structured way.
Javascript Basics
- Types: Number, String, Boolean, Object, and Function.
null
andundefined
are special values. - Operators: Arithmetic, comparison and logical (e.g. +,-,==, !=. ===, !==, &&, ||)
- Control Structures:
if/else
,while
,for
loops. - Arrays: Ordered collections of values. Include operations such as
push
,pop
,length
to manipulate arrays.
Objects
- Allows storage of values with named keys.
- Access values using dot notation (object.key) or bracket notation (object["key"]).
Destructuring
- Syntax that unpacks values from arrays or objects into distinct variables.
HTML
(Basic and important elements)
<h1>
to<h6>
: Headings of varying importance<p>
: Paragraphs<img>
: Images (with attributes likesrc
andalt
)<a>
: Links for navigation<div>
and<span>
: Generic containers for grouping content
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
- Used to style HTML elements. Includes selectors, properties, and values to control appearance.
- Types of selectors include element selectors, id selectors, class selectors and pseudo-selectors like
a:hover
.
Layouts and Positioning
- Normal flow: The default layout where each element takes its normal position.
- Positioning:
position
properties (relative, absolute, fixed) allow for precise positioning of elements usingtop
,bottom
,left
, andright
Flexbox and Grid Layouts
- Flexbox lays elements out along a single axis.
- Grid lays out elements on a two-dimensional grid(rows and columns)
HTTP Requests/Responses
- HTTP is used for communications between web clients (browsers) and servers.
- GET (for retrieving data), POST (for submitting data), and other types of operations like PUT (to update data) or DELETE.
PHP
- PHP is a server-side scripting language used to create dynamic websites.
Database Management Systems(DBMS)
- Relational database management systems (RDBMSs) organize data in tables with rows (records) and columns (fields).
- SQL (Structured Query Language) is used to query, insert, update, and delete data within these systems.
SQL Queries
- Select statements: retrieve data from tables (e.g.,
SELECT * FROM table_name
). - Distincts clauses: filter for unique values.
- Where clauses: filter rows by specific conditions (e.g.,
WHERE column='value'
).
SQL Joins
- Combine data from multiple tables.
INNER JOIN
,LEFT JOIN
,RIGHT JOIN
are different types of joins
Web Application Security
- Issues such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), and SQL Injection, need to be considered.
- Methods like using parameters in queries, escaping user inputs and checking for input types are ways to reduce risk.
Sessions
- Used to maintain state across multiple web page requests.
Security Principles
- Trust nothing and nobody
- Assume worst-case scenarios
- Apply defense in depth
- Principle of least privilege
Web Accessibility
- Design for different user types, use WCAG standards, and ensure web content is usable and accessible for everyone.
