Editing Web page

== Definitions ==

A '''web page''' is 

{{Quote|a [[computer]] [[data file]] that can include names, words, [[message]]s, [[picture]]s, [[sound]]s, and [[link]]s to other [[information]]. Every web page has its own [[web site]], which is its address, similar to a telephone number or street address. <ref>[[Panavision v. Toeppen|Panavision Int'l, L.P. v. Toeppen]], 141 F.3d 1316, 1318 (9th Cir. 1998) ([http://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=18039958431907373662&q=141+F.3d+1316&hl=en&as_sdt=2,5 full-text]).</ref>}}

{{Quote|a location, with respect to the [[world wide web]], that has a single [[uniform resource locator]] or other single location with respect to the [[internet]].<ref>Wash. Rev. Code 19.190.010(13).</ref>}}

== Contents of web page ==

Web pages may contain "graphics and text that contain ‘[[link]]s’ to other pages -- either within the same set of [[data file]]s (‘[[website|Web site]]’) or within [[data file]]s located on other [[computer network]]s.” <ref>[[Lockheed v. NSI|Lockheed Martin Corp. v. Network Solutions, Inc.]], 985 F. Supp. 949, 951 (C.D. Cal. 1997) ([http://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=17999475844602501520&q=985+F.+Supp.+949&hl=en&as_sdt=2,5 full-text]).</ref> In addition, much of the page may not “reside” anywhere, but be generated “on the fly” under the control of [[computer program]]s (written in [[programming language]]s such as “[[Java]]”).

A Web page is accessed by typing a [[Uniform Resource Locator]] ([[URL]]) into a [[Web browser]].

== Viewing the source code of a web page ==

The [[HTML source]] of a Web page is text that defines the [[content]] and format of a page. In addition to the graphical representation provided to the viewer, the page may contain additional information related to its author, programming code, [[metadata]], and other identifying information that may not be [[display]]ed in Web page view. 

Most common [[Web browser]]s allow [[user]]s to view the source of a Web page. To view the [[HTML source]] using [[Internet Explorer]], select “view” on the [[toolbar]], then select “source” on the [[drop-down menu]].

Techniques are available that can obscure the [[HTML source]] while still allowing normal viewing of the Web page in a [[browser]].

== Capturing web page data ==

Capturing the [[information]] from a single Web page or the entire [[content]]s of a [[website]] may be accomplished using [[screen capture]]s, the “[[save as]]” [[command]], and [[website capture tool]]s.
