All,
Working on a design doc., some of which will translate into the User's
guide information. My developer's are referring to everything as a
screen. However, I am working in an HTML-rendered environment, so I
would like to use page, especially since (as per MS's Manual of Style
for Tech. Pubs), a screen is defined as the graphic portion of a
visual output device and this definition cross-references display and
monitor. For the pop-ups that may open when a user clicks on an option
on the page, the developers are using the term window. At other gigs, we
have used dialog box, pop-up dialog box, pop-up, and pop-up window, so
obviously, the terminology can be all over the board. Summation - I am
wanting to use the following terms:
Page
Pop-up Window (for the classic pop-up available on a web page)
Tabs (available on the page)
Any thoughts, suggestions, comments, disagreements, comments from
similar experiences?
TIA,
TVB
