My PAW site
Hi all, After putting my last couple of PAW images up, I decided to set up a script-based site to make it easier to add pictures. I'm getting lazy and editing HTML is boring :) I'd appreciate it if a couple of people could take a look at the new pages to make sure they work for you. Here's a direct link to one of them: http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/cgi-bin/paw.cgi?date=26-Feb-2004 Down the bottom of the page is a link to the PAW index. Or you can navigate there from my homepage (URL below). Problems I already know about: 1) IE5 seems to render the title strip right across the page (probably a technical fault on my part), 2) The title wraps if its too long (design fault on my part). Cheers, - Dave http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/

It works perfectly, Dave. I love the propeller effect... At first, I thought there were something falling off the plane...

Re: My PAW site
David, It works perfectly and looks great to me on IE6 at 1024 x 768 pixels and text size = larger. I like your choice of a grey field to display photos on. regards, Anthony Farr

Works fine with IE 5.5 and Firebird. I glanced at the source code. Your scripting software seems to produce very clean code. What are you using? -- David Mann wrote: Hi all, After putting my last couple of PAW images up, I decided to set up a script-based site to make it easier to add pictures.

I couple of years ago I wanted to build a photo database, and I also wanted to learn about cgi-bin programming. So I married the two ideas: I wrote my own cgi-bin database from scratch, for the purpose of creating a searchable online photo library. The executable itself doesn't generate the HTML: that comes from a script file. The cgi-bin program just fills in the fields. In fact, the scripting is the only thing I actually like about my database. It's extremely limited otherwise. I am pretty sure that the HTML is entirely hand written, apart from what the server fills in. I've been editing in Dreamweaver lately, as that is convenient and keeps my local and remote files all up to date. But I can't use the wysiwyg view very easily for this stuff - I'm just using it as a text editor. At the moment I'm desperately wanting to convert the whole lot over to PHP and MySQL, but that involves persuading the owner of my host to install MySQL :) Otherwise I'll need to add some features to my own database, which is going to require a fair bit of effort. BTW thanks to everyone for the feedback. It must be about time I put another picture in. Cheers, - Dave http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/
