From Jennifer Kyrnin, your Guide to Web Design / HTML
This week I take a look at servers and how they can impact your design workflow. By placing your designs in multiple places, you not only create multiple backups you allow for different steps in the design process to proceed unhindered. Learn how designers use multiple servers to manage their design workflow. Plus, learn how reading your log files regularly can help you keep your site more secure. Happy Birthday, Bren!

The About.com Readers' Choice awards voting started last Friday and we're already seeing some interesting results. Voting will last until March 8, 2011, and the finalists with the most votes in each category will be named this year's Readers' Choice. What's especially interesting to me is that some finalists that were nominated by YOU - About.com readers - have not yet received any votes. If you nominated a site, you should go vote for them!


Multiple Servers Can be Used in Web Design Workflows
Web servers often play a critical role in the workflow of building a website. While most small and medium sized websites have only one web server (the production server), larger companies may have many more than that for building and maintaining their website. Learn what different types of servers might appear in a web design workflow.

Use Your Log Files to Protect Your Site
Websites are a more and more common thing for hackers to exploit. There are so many scripts and tools out there that are not extensively tested, that it becomes simple for a hacker or script kiddie to find a site with exploits and then exploit it.

Dreamweaver CS5 supports multiple server workflows
One of the interesting new features of Dreamweaver CS5 is the ability to set up multiple servers for more complicated workflows. Now, if you have a testing server in one location, a development server somewhere else, and your production server is in a third place, you can define all three locations in Dreamweaver and use it to connect to them all.

Poll: Do you like the new HTML 5 logo?
The W3C announced a new logo for HTML 5. You can use it to announce to the world that you use HTML 5. You can also specify what other modern technology you use or enjoy, such as: CSS 3, SVG, video and multimedia, offline storage, and so on. But there are a lot of opinions about this new logo. Do we need it? Is it trying to do too much (encompassing CSS 3 and so on)? Should it have a more specific meaning (such as validity)? What do you think? Do you like the new HTML 5 logo? Why or why not? Vote Now View Results
