PDFmyURL Generates PDFs from Any Web Address [Conversion]
In: Coding
19 Jan 2010
We’ve covered online file converters, browser extensions, and psuedo-printers that convert web pages into full PDFs. For a simple, no-software-required solution, PDFmyURL spits out PDF files when you plug in a web address. And, yeah, there’s a bookmarklet.
If you just want a PDF of a given URL at a certain time, PDFmyURL gets the job done with no fuss, no muss. You can also grab the bookmarklet from the front page to pull off the conversion at any time.
Click the “Advanced Options” on the right, though, and you’ll learn how to pull off PDF production without even visiting the site, embed advanced options, and even run PDFmyURL from your own server. Neat, free stuff, and a great public service.

Its usually called Multimedia and Web design or may be called Interactive Multimedia.
Computer Science will teach you web design along with other theory relating to computers. It can help to understand this theory as well as it will give you a bit of background knowledge to the subject area.
You would also learn programming concepts on a computer science course which would also help you.

I checked in my (Mac) version, but the PC version should be similar. There is a group of plug ins for Adobe Acrobat that is installed into Safari. I found it listed under the "Help" column. If you don't have the complete plug in set, you may need to go to the Safari download site or Adobe's site to get it.

What you need is a pdf reader for your mobile phone. This helpful article 'Mobile PDF Reader – View PDF on Mobile Devices' may give you some tips.
You can have a try and sincerely hope it can do you some favor.

You're a bit confused.
Cross site scripting is not a browser function, it is an abuse of JAVASCRIPT in web sites.
So what you probably have there is too high a level of security, or Javascript is disabled. In Internet Destroyer, this is called "Active scripting."
Try
From the main menu select Tools->Internet Options->Security tab.
Click "Custom Level."
Scroll almost to the bottom and locate "Scripting"
Select buttons as follows:
Active Scripting:Enable
Allow Programmatic clipboard access: prompt. (this means something on the web site is "copying" to memory – generally harmless but could be a virus attempting to populate memory via clipboard, so you should definately set to prompt so you can know about it and cancel if necessary)
Allow status bar updates via script: you can do either, but generally, leave disabled. This is the bar at the bottom of your screen and is used to show link locations when moused over. Javascript can write stuff to this bar; enabled is harmless.
Allow web sites to prompt for information using scripted windows: Also choice, this is the little prompt bars that come up, you may need it on this web site so I'd say enable it.
Scripting of Java applets: Applets are rarely used any more, you can disable this but it's no threat with it on (except for sites with malicious Java – and note that Java is NOT JAVASCRIPT)
OK out of everything, restart I.E.
