In this Months Newsletter...
A Quick Word
Welcome to the October 2004 issue of the Interspire newsletter. As
you may have guessed, this newsletter's a little late, but I
promise that it's late for a good reason: The PHP version of
ArticleLive was released last week!We've already had excellent
feedback from both new and existing customers who have already
purchased ArticleLive and are using it to run their content-driven
web sites. If you haven't purchased ArticleLive yet, then
you can do so
here. To see some sites that are already using ArticleLive,
see this link.
Finally, this month we have uploaded quite a few new web site
and logo templates. If you have an idea for a template or logo
design, let me know.

Have you seen the web site, logo and newsletter templates on our web site? Each week we release new templates which you can download, and use in projects for your clients:
Using Inline Javascript Form Validation
"Javascript alert boxes have long been used for validating HTML forms. For example, if you forget to type your name into a contact form, then a Javascript alert pops up telling you about your error and how to correct it. While this is a lot better than no warning message or validation at all, I find alert messages quite annoying, ugly and outdated..."

Building a Mouse-Over Menu Using CSS
"I remember when I started building web sites. Creating dynamic menu's meant creating a series of images: one for the static image, one for the mouse-over image, and at times a separate image for when a click occurred. After this, I piled on the JavaScript to preload the mouse over images and change the images, depending on which menu button had the mouse cursor over it. Phew! It was a lot of work..."

Does My Workload Ever End? (By Mitch)
"Quite simply, no, it doesn't. Not many of you will know this, but I'm leading development of ArticleLive 2005 (yes, the PHP version will be released as 2005 and the .NET version will have an updated released as 2005)..."

SiteCenter Template Repository (By Joe)
"What's a repository? Well, I summoned the google define: feature and found a few humourous outcomes...
1. a facility where things can be deposited for storage or safekeeping.
2. a person to whom a secret is entrusted
3. a burial vault (usually for some famous person) .. what the?!!..."

Multi-Database Development (By Chris)
"The new application we're working on is going to be a little different than most of the others. As Mitch mentioned before, it's more on the marketing side of things which is different for us. It's coming along in bits and pieces and coming together nicely. We've pretty much got one section done, now we're onto the second section (there are about 4 distinct areas we have to complete)..."

ASP vs. ASP.NET (By John)
"There's a lot of debate on which is the best web development language/technology and the truth is that there is no simple answer. But I will say that while leading development of both the ASP and ASP.NET version of ActiveKB at the same time I've noticed a HUGE difference. It's taken about 3 or 4 times longer to build the control panel for the ASP version than it did for the ASP.NET version..."
