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?
