We implemented the design provided by aartvark Communications for Mammoth Productions Inc, a video production house. The salient feature is that different cascading style sheets are loaded depending on the user's screen resolution. Spanning resolutions from 800x600 to 1600x1200, these sheets change, for example, the font parameters for maintaining easy legibility of the text information.

We did the complete e-commerce implementation for Western Drug Distribution Center Ltd. With large annual sales, this co-op site services mostly veterinarians for all of Western Canada. We set up twin web servers, both Red Hat Linux boxes running Interchange. The Interchange code is enhanced with Javascript & Perl code in order to meet the customized requirements. We also configured an auxiliary server, running Fedora Core 4, to generate all the data tables, barcodes and thumbnail images required by the web servers.
      Personal
       
   
Our personal, private web site called the Virtual Railroad serves up well over 16,000 HTML pages. The site is mostly CGI driven. There are over 3,000 lines of Perl code for the page scripts and cron jobs. The locomotive data files are simple text files storing the rvalue for a hash of complex records. Scalability and ease of management are major factors taken into consideration.

Check out our Software Corner where we present complete, annotated Perl scripts. For example, there's a mosaic program to filter an image into a mosaic of opaque tiles and generate the corresponding assembly instructions. You'll also find a photo puzzle script that dices an image and generates all the required HTML, JavaScript and CSS elements to play the resulting game.


For "The Lake File" section of my wife's web site, we've written a Perl script to generate KML files to launch Google Earth "Fly-To's" to the various lakes documented.
    United Nations Online Volunteering
     
 
We do pro-bono work through the United Nations Online Volunteering Programme. We have assisted various NGOs with the development of their web sites. Our contribution has involved writing HTML, CSS, SSI and JavaScript code. In addition, we have written various Perl CGI scripts to interact with MySQL tables.

We designed and coded a web site for The Gazelle Trust in East Hendred, Wantage, Oxfordshire, UK. Moreover, we remain involved as their webmaster.

We re-designed the site for the International Organization for Chemical Sciences in Development (IOCD) and continue to act as their webmaster.
