More and more people are using web documents in their reports.
This brings up the question of how to cite a web document as a
reference. Unfortunately there is no standard accepted yet for
the APA or MLA Styles of Citation because the technology is still
so new. However some standards are being proposed. Check with
your instructor if they have a preferred method of citation for
web documents. Here are some documents which suggest formats for
citations:
MLA Style of Citation:
