slug

Nicoline van der Sijs
Slug (disambiguation)

Originally referred to a slow, lazy person, from Middle English slugge (“lazy person", also "slowth, slothfulness”), probably of either Old English or Old Norse origin; compare Norn slug (“lazy, slothful, sluggish”), dialectal Norwegian slugg (“a large, heavy body”), sluggje (“heavy, slow person”), Danish slog (“rascal, rogue”); perhaps ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *sliǵ-ōn, from *sley- (“smooth; slick; sticky; slimy”) or otherwise from the root of Old Norse slókr (“lazy person, oaf”), whence Icelandic slókur (“laziness”). Compare also Dutch slak (“snail, slug”). Doublet of slotch.

inh

Slugs are better than just appending the document ID to the URL, as they are readable and understandable by visitors. They are also an important part of a good SEO. So that we can use slugs, every slug has to be unique.

2016, Fabian Vogelsteller, Isaac Strack, Marcelo Reyna, Meteor: Full-Stack Web Application Development, Packt Publishing Ltd, page 71

(web development, SEO) The last part of a clean URL, the displayed resource name, similar to a filename.


CSS

en-noun

CSS (countable and uncountable, plural CSSs or CSSes)

One needs only to decide upon a series of rules to define the functionality of a CSS and then to decide how to implement that sheet, either directly within their HTML document, or by using an externally linked file.

2009, J.D. Applen, Rudy McDaniel, The Rhetorical Nature of XML: Constructing Knowledge in Networked Environments, New York, N.Y., London: Routledge, page 162

A marked-up document can have a CSS linked to it, but a user may have a CSS on their machine that will override it, which can cause problems sometimes and can need checking where publishers need to be sure the content is accurately presented.

2013, Frania Hall, The Business of Digital Publishing: An Introduction to the Digital Book and Journal Industries, Routledge, page 22

Now, the first thing we will do is to alter our listing page to respect the layout of the original Agendatech, importing the CSSs.

If a device's screen width is equal to, or less than, the screen width defined at the breakpoint, it will have the related CSS applied to it.

A free online favicon editor allows advanced webmasters to create their own favicons and use them during website development or maintenance.

2002, Ejub Kajan, Information technology encyclopedia and acronyms, page 195

You, however, can do better by creating your own customized favicon for your Web site — just the thing you need to add that professional touch.

2006, Richard Wagner, Web Design Before & After Makeovers, page 206

Make sure to create a favicon. Since the browser will request this file anyway, there's no reason to return a 404 Page Not Found error, especially if your 404 handler consumes a database connection or other expensive resources.

2009, Steve Souders, Even Faster Web Sites, page 158

2015, Dan Rose, Responsive Web Design with Adobe Photoshop, page 85

The trade of a web designer; the creation of web pages, especially in terms of layout and presentation rather than functionality.

Clickjacking, however, evades the need for this cross domain reading, and instead directly places the mouse over the target area to click on the link or form that contains the nonce - thereby bypassing the need for client side cross domain read exploitation.

2008 September 12, Robert Hansen, Jeremiah Grossman, “Clickjacking”, in SecTheory - Internet Security Services Internet Security, archived from the original on 2008-10-29

When the user arrives at that landing page the content is not generic (as the home page will be) but specific

infinite scroll

The prime example of this is the so-called infinite scroll pattern. The idea is simple: rather than distribute results across a series of pages, all results are loaded into a single page.

2009, Robert Hoekman, Jared Spool, Web Anatomy: Interaction Design Frameworks That Work, page 96

You want to create an “infinite scroll” interaction that appends new results as the user scrolls down the page.

2012, Evan Goer, Yui 3 Cookbook, page 80

(web development) A philosophy where a website's functionality is enhanced by JavaScript, rather than wholly reliant on JavaScript.


server-side rendering

server-side rendering (plural server-side renderings)

When we talk about server-side rendering of websites, we are generally referring to an application or website that uses a programming language that runs on a server.
