Although easy to implement, round robin DNS has problematic drawbacks, such as those arising from record caching in the DNS hierarchy itself, as well as client-side address caching and reuse, the combination of which can be difficult to manage.

Dynamic HTML, or DHTML, is an umbrella term for a collection of technologies used together to create interactive and animated web sites by using a combination of a static markup language ( such as HTML ), a client-side scripting language ( such as JavaScript ), a presentation definition language ( such as CSS ), and the Document Object Model.

# With mutual SSL / TLS, security is maximal, but on the client-side, there is no way to properly end the SSL connection and disconnect the user except by waiting for the SSL server session to expire or closing all related client applications.

Notification of mail arrival is done through in-band signaling, which contributes to the complexity of client-side IMAP protocol handling somewhat.

Netscape is credited with developing the Secure Sockets Layer Protocol ( SSL ) for securing online communication, which is still widely used, as well as JavaScript, the most widely used language for client-side scripting of web pages.

This is due to the adoption of heavily client-side technologies like Ajax and Flash, which are themselves strongly driven by the highly interactive nature of Web 2. 0 applications.

When employed for client-side web development in Microsoft Internet Explorer, VBScript is similar in function to JavaScript.

A static web page may still have dynamic behaviour, provided that this is handled entirely client-side ( i. e. within the browser ).

The latter is not a requirement of a SOAP endpoint, but it is a prerequisite for automated client-side code generation in many Java and. NET SOAP frameworks ( frameworks such as Apache Axis2, Apache CXF, and Spring being notable exceptions ).

The client-side classes that can be generated from WSDL and XSD descriptions of the service are often similarly tied to a particular version of the SOAP endpoint and can break, if the endpoint changes or the client-side SOAP stack is upgraded.

Radio UserLand is a client-side weblog system that hosts blogs on UserLand's servers for an annual software license fee.

* Single Page Application, a web application that is entirely contained on the client-side typically using a combination of HTML, JavaScript, and Cascading Style Sheets

In these scenarios, there is no direct client-side access nor multiple client software systems to support, everything goes through the programmer-supplied HTML application.

The language is widely used for client-side scripting on the web, in the form of several well-known dialects such as JavaScript, JScript, and ActionScript.

QuakeWorld's most important feature is its rewritten networking code ( for client-side player prediction and delta compression ).

Cross-site scripting ( XSS ) is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found in Web applications, such as web browsers through breaches of browser security, that enables attackers to inject client-side script into Web pages viewed by other users.

Operations may be performed client-side because they require access to information or functionality that is available on the client but not on the server, because the user needs to observe them or provide input, or because the server lacks the processing power to perform the operations in a timely manner for all of the clients it serves.

The client then analyzes the data ( a client-side operation ), and, when the analysis is complete, transmits its results back to the server.

It is in theory possible to mix both of these solutions, for instance testing the browser for a client-side XForms implementation and serving native XForms in that case, and defaulting to a server solution in other cases.

* Curl-another multi-paradigm web content functional language which is also expression-based but only for client-side ( There is no server-side module as of March, 2008 )

Also called a " client-side self-service installation " CD, it can cover the entire process from modem configuration to setting up client applications, including home networking devices.

JavaScript and JScript let web developers create web pages with client-side interactivity.

The Legacy DOM enabled client-side form validation and the popular " rollover " effect.

This includes pages created by client-side scripting, and ones created by server-side scripting ( such as PHP, Perl, JSP or ASP. NET ) where the web server generates content before sending it to the client.

Many IMAP clients can be configured to store sent mail in a client-side folder, or to BCC oneself and then filter the incoming mail instead of saving a copy in a folder directly.

Many web design tutorials also point out that client-side redirecting tends to interfere with the normal functioning of a Web browser's " back " button.

Using client-side encryption will only protect transmission from the mail handling system server to the client machine.

To improve the quality of online play, id Software released QuakeWorld on December 17, 1996, a build of Quake that featured significantly revamped network code including the addition of client-side prediction.

With the help of client-side prediction, which allowed players to see their own movement immediately without waiting for a response from the server, QuakeWorld network code allowed players with high-latency connections to control their character's movement almost as precisely as when playing in single-player mode.

Following the success of QuakeWorld, client-side prediction has become a standard feature of nearly all real-time online games.

Server-side scripting differs from client-side scripting where embedded scripts, such as JavaScript, are run client-side in the web browser.

Programs that run on a user's local computer without ever sending or receiving data over a network are not considered clients, and so the operations of such programs would not be considered client-side operations.

This means that where client-side scripting and cross-browser compatibility are required, developers usually choose JavaScript over VBScript.

( Some newer protocols, such as Kerberos and Active Directory use DNS SRV records to identify services by name, which is much closer to the AppleTalk model.

The Domain Name System ( DNS ) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network.

A DNS name server is a server that stores the DNS records for a domain name, such as address ( A ) records, name server ( NS ) records, and mail exchanger ( MX ) records ( see also list of DNS record types ); a DNS name server responds with answers to queries against its database.

BIND was widely distributed, especially on Unix systems, and is the dominant DNS software in use on the Internet.

An authoritative name server is a name server that gives answers that have been configured by an original source, for example, the domain administrator or by dynamic DNS methods, in contrast to answers that were obtained via a regular DNS query to another name server.

This flag is usually reproduced prominently in the output of DNS administration query tools ( such as dig ) to indicate that the responding name server is an authority for the domain name in question.

In practice caching is used in DNS servers to overcome this problem, and as a result, root nameservers actually are involved with very little of the total traffic.

The combination of DNS caching and recursive functions in a name server is not mandatory ; the functions can be implemented independently in servers for special purposes.

* A non-recursive query is one in which the DNS server provides a record for a domain for which it is authoritative itself, or it provides a partial result without querying other servers.

* A recursive query is one for which the DNS server will fully answer the query ( or give an error ) by querying other name servers as needed.

The time for which a resolver caches a DNS response is determined by a value called the time to live ( TTL ) associated with every record.

The TTL is set by the administrator of the DNS server handing out the authoritative response.

A reverse lookup is a query of the DNS for domain names when the IP address is known.

It is represented as a DNS name in reverse order like this: < tt > 2. 152. 80. 208. in-addr. arpa </ tt >.

* E-mail Blacklists: The DNS is used for efficient storage and distribution of IP addresses of blacklisted e-mail hosts.

** E-mail servers can then query blacklist. example through the DNS mechanism to find out if a specific host connecting to them is in the blacklist.
