About this website
|
 |
|
|
This website consists mainly of pages written in pure HTML.
Whenever possible, we've tried to avoid the use of special
features, such as Flash, Frames, Java and JavaScript. The
main advantage of pure HTML code is that everyone, regardless
computer, operating system and/or browser, can view these
pages. Pages in pure HTML will generally load much faster,
which is a real bonus when accessing the website via Packet Radio.
We therefore support the world wide campaign 'Best viewed on any browser'.

How is this website conceived?
|
|
|
|
People often ask us how this website is created and maintained.
It may or may not surprise you that for the maintenance of the
site we are not using Windows PCs, but
an IYONIX pc using
the RISC OS operating system instead.
|
|
|
|
The IYONIX pc is an Brittish computer.
It is the successor of well known Acorn computers, such as the
Risc PC and the BBC computer.
The IYONIX pc is build around the latest generation ARM/Intel RISC
processors and stays completely 'cold' during operation (no fan!).
The powerful and complete operating system is only 4MB in size and
resides in a flash-ROM, allowing a start-up time of just a few seconds.
RISC OS has a full GUI (Graphical User Interface), TCP/IP and is not
prone to the common virusses.
For the site maintenance, the in-house written package WebXpress is used.
WebXpress, which is now also used for commercial applications, ensures that
all information is presented in our 'house style', without the need for the
webmaster to worry about this.
All graphical objects on these pages have been processed by a combination
of the following programs: ArtWorks, Paint, Edit, Draw,
WebGif, ChangeFSI and Photodesk.
Once a page is changed, it is put in a queue which can be uploaded to
our website automatically at any time. For the transmission of pages
we use the application FTPc. All software runs under RISC OS.
