Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to produce server-side scripts for dynamic web pages, using a range of relevant features from different but appropriate languages.

It applies to individuals working as web designers who apply a wide range of knowledge and skills across different information and communications technology (ICT) environments to support small to medium enterprises (SMEs) that require broader, rather than more specialised, ICT support.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Analyse the requirements for web documents requiring server-side dynamic interaction

1.1 Determine the necessary dynamic functionality of the web document

1.2 Determine the appropriate language, to achieve that functionality

1.3 Determine web document requirements

2. Design server-side scripts

2.1 Design the web document and server-side code, to interact with an external data source

2.2 Design the web document and server-side code, to allow an administrator to insert, update, and delete entries to the external data source

2.3 Implement security features in the web document

3. Produce the web documents

3.1 Write the extensible hypertext markup language (XHTML), considering accessibility

3.2 Write server-side scripts to current XHTML standards

4. Test the scripts and debug

4.1 Test the web document against required the functionality and reiterate until correct

4.2 Complete the documentation and submit it to the appropriate person for their approval

5. Set up security

5.1 Determine the necessary permissions to prevent error messages displaying to the public

5.2 Configure server software to minimise potential database attacks

Foundation Skills

This section describes language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills incorporated in the performance criteria that are required for competent performance.

Comments 

Release 1

This version first released with ICT Information and Communications Technology Training Package Version 1.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

  • create dynamic web pages according to all job requirements, using server-side scripting to retrieve information from a web-hosted database
  • create scripts for:
  • the quick upload of data to web-hosted databases
  • inserting, updating, and deleting data from a web server database
  • encoding passwords
  • uploading and retrieving images
  • managing sessions, and creating a secure login.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

  • explain server-side technologies, and the relevant web scripting languages
  • discuss server-side web analysis and design parameters
  • summarise and apply, programming control structures and object-oriented programming
  • outline web-programming concepts including:
  • the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP)
  • stateless programming
  • session management
  • authentication and web security.

Assessment Conditions

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the website technologies field of work, and include access to the:

  • client requirements
  • functionality and scope requirements
  • security policy
  • database server
  • internet and server
  • software development environment
  • web browsers.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
