So am I REALLY the only one in this club who thinks that the html version of the calendar is awful? Just try to find the first WTT event in it , or the dates of the North Carolina Tour, etc.... Don't be shy - Rod wants your comments (and there are other calendar options).
--- and the recipe question --- At some incredibly late hour - Take two 113 g containers of yogurt, 100g of cheese, 250g of rice pudding, three oranges. Remove all lids, skins and plastic wrappings. Sit down and eat while you've got the chance! The digestive system does the rest of the processing... (At least my last meal of the day never gets disturbed by telephone solicitors...) --- and the ignorable techy trash --- Looked like DreamWeaver and had references to Dreamweaver styles. I guess it's really MacroMedia. I see copyright notices for John Ahlquist, you are using his fw_menu.js JavaScript, and I see all kinds of "MM_" prefixes in the Javascript code - It sure doesn't look like it was manually generated by a human... Also you said that SSI's were used so that the same JavaScript stuff which I was seeing in every file wasn't really there. Wouldn't it be a lot less awkward (in terms of being able to actually test the web pages before sticking them on the webserver!) to just use "src=" specs in the script tags to load the appropriate JavaScript??? This is how you're accessing Ahlquist's stuff. As a mathematician, I tend to prefer objective analyses based on measureables rather than subjective discussion. In a technical discussion, the discussion is usually to suggest/contribute/agree-upon/analyze the measurables. For web sites some of the well-known/agreed-upon measurables are signal to noise ratios, hit counts, number of mouse clicks (or menu flyouts - they actually hurt my wrist more than button clicks) needed to get to the desired location, weighted averages of path lengths, minimum path lengths between closely related pages, number of failures in accessing pages (either link or format related), etc. If two solutions are relatively close in these measures, I don't care in the least which is used. Variety is the spice of life, and I certainly embody that motto - but not without thought... Celia Rod Plunkett wrote: > - -- The software used for the website is not Dreamweaver.
