and implement an HTML server or client browser.Once a server is set up, almost everybody can create web pages. From top managers to employees are all able to create web pages with the use of HTML, which is the World Wide Web universal language format. Converting documents into HTML format is getting easier and easier with the use of new programs that do everything for one. This is considered another big advantage of using web technology because fewer programmers are required to maintain it therefor reducing the expenses of a company. Intranets allow the programmers to make one copy of any information and run it anywhere, even across both client and server platforms.But why is this internal web so popular? There are typically three main reasons. First, all internal webs contain text and non-text items, for example recorded speech, graphics and even video clips.

Companies are able to make pages referring to the employee's payroll, to company sales, client contracts, and many others without limitation. Finally, each Intranet web server can be cross-linked to others, by means of hypertext links, whether they are located around the world or just down the street. It is the ability that gives the Intranet its power, and its attraction to many corporations.Intranets are easy to implement, unlike most other types of networks Intranets don't require the replacement of all of the existing system, databases and applications. They embrace the already existing infrastructure investments, including desktop computers, servers, mainframes, databases, applications and networks. Other types of networks would not allow an organization to have different types of machines or operating systems on the same platform. For examp...
