What Java is
Developed by Sun Microsystems, it is a programming language specifically designed for writing programs that can be safely downloaded through the Internet without fear of viruses or other harm to computers or files. Using small Java programs called applets, Web pages can include functions such as animations, calculators, and other fancy tricks. Java is a simple, robust, object-oriented, platform-independent, multi-threaded, dynamic, general-purpose programming environment. It is best used for creating applets and applications for intranets, the Internet, and any other complex, distributed network.
The meaning of Anchor
In HTML, anchors mark the start and end of hypertext links. For example, consider this HTML code:
. The first tag, <>, marks the start of the anchor, while the last tag, <>, marks the close of the anchor. The text in the middle, netlingo.com, is what shows as an underlined link when viewed by a Web browser.
