Some options as a fallback.

For a different track of topics, I could do a presentation on HTML and CSS 
basics. 

I think most people these days have idea of HTML or do they? (I am curious 
because there are many good tools out there that hide the details of what's 
happenign in the code from the user.) Knowing HTML coding basics can be 
helpful in debugging Web pages.

Cascading Styles Sheets have been around for a while but many Web developers 
still don't avail of them. I can show some of the reasons why they are a good 
tool for Web sites. 

I believe that either doing CSS alone (if the audience already knows the HTML 
basics) or doing a very quick HTML basics with most of the presetnation on 
CSS would work. Of course, this will be done in a Linux environment.

An alternate would be Linux Web approaches in a world where it is assumed 
"everybody uses IE." This might be trickier to pull off. Maybe I can better 
handle it within the other presentation by noting poor Web design practices 
that assume "everybody's using a particular proprietary browser."
