www.macromedia.com; IP addresses, such as 132.96.219.3; and localhost to signify
the computer that you are currently using.
PNG
Portable Network Graphics. Type of image file (.png) that has a small file size but less
detail than the JPG file. PNG files are perfect for images that need to download
quickly onto a user’s computer. They are smaller in file size and of higher quality than
GIF files, but unlike GIFs they do not support animation.
project
In ColdFusion Studio, a project organizes the files in a Web site or Web application by
grouping them in a central location. (This location can be physical or virtual.) Using
projects simplifies deployment and maintenance tasks such as link verification and
extended search and replace.
property
Tag attribute. Property is a term used in TopStyle Lite CSS Editor.
RDS
Remote Development Services. Proprietary protocol that is built into Studio. RDS
does everything that FTP does, and also enables developers to browse server
databases, debug remote applications, and use server-side source control. The RDS
server also manages security. The RDS server is always the ColdFusion Server.
RGB value
Code for a color, in hexadecimal (
[0-9A-Fa-f]
)
notation. The code is comprised of
three pieces, which signify the level of red, green, and blue in the color. Each of these
pieces is either a 2-digit number from 00 to 99, or a 2-letter combination from AA to
FF. Absence of a color is 00 or AA; the maximum concentration of a color is 99 or FF.
For example, pure red can be denoted as 990000, 99AAAA, FF0000, and so on. Green
is 00FF00 and blue is 0000FF. The Web has several great resources for getting the RGB
value of colors; for example, see www.hypersolutions.org/pages/rgbhex.html.
schema
Structure or model for a database. A schema can be a graphical representation or a
formal text description.
selector
Page element, or tag. TopStyle Lite CSS Editor uses this term in its user interface.
server
A computer or software program with the role of serving. For example, a database
server (or
transaction server
) receives incoming requests from client computers and
responds by “serving” either the requested data or an error. A Web server such as
Apache or IIS returns HTML pages in response to requests, such as when a user
enters the Web page’s URL. An application server such as ColdFusion or JRun Server
handles the business logic of a Web application and can process all sorts of Web
languages beyond HTML; for example Perl, CGI scripts, servlets, ActiveServer Pages,
