... 61 years young, living in Johannesburg, I've been "doing computers" since 1969 (Woodstock Generation!) - operating, programming and now web stuff.
I'm enjoying life and keeping my hand in, by designing and developing websites.
I've always had an artistic flair and hope that it reflects in my design.
There's a small visual portfolio going around below, which will allow you to link to some of the sites that I have built - if you can catch and click on a thumbnail!
... My elder Brother, of indeterminate age (I think he's either Cliff Richards or Peter Pan, or both), living in Shropshire, U.K. He's the Business Manager!
Martin puts up the money for this site and co-ordinates with the northern hemisphere client's.
He's semi-retired and has a B&B - Summerfield - in Shropshire.
He was a career soldier with the Queen's Dragoon Guards (SSM) and enjoys travelling the world, visiting old friends!
HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the main markup language for web pages. HTML elements are the basic building-blocks of webpages. HTML is written in the form of HTML elements consisting of tags enclosed in angle brackets ("<....>"), within the web page content. HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like "h1" and "/h1", although some tags, known as empty elements, are unpaired, for example "img". The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag (they are also called opening tags and closing tags). In between these tags web designers can add text, tags, comments and other types of text-based content. The purpose of a web browser is to read HTML documents and compose them into visible or audible web pages. The browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to interpret the content of the page. HTML elements form the building blocks of all websites. HTML allows images and objects to be embedded and can be used to create interactive forms. It provides a means to create structured documents by denoting structural semantics for text such as headings, paragraphs, lists, links, quotes and other items. It can embed scripts in languages such as JavaScript which affect the behavior of HTML webpages. Web browsers can also refer to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to define the appearance and layout of text and other material. The W3C, maintainer of both the HTML and the CSS standards, encourages the use of CSS over explicitly presentational HTML markup.[1]
PHP is a general-purpose server-side scripting language originally designed for Web development to produce dynamic Web pages. It is one of the first developed server-side scripting languages to be embedded into an HTML source document, rather than calling an external file to process data. Ultimately, the code is interpreted by a Web server with a PHP processor module which generates the resulting Web page. It also has evolved to include a command-line interface capability and can be used in standalone graphical applications.PHP can be deployed on most Web servers and also as a standalone shell on almost every operating system and platform free of charge.A competitor to Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) server-side script engine and similar languages, PHP is installed on more than 20 million Web sites and 1 million Web servers. PHP was originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1995. The main implementation of PHP is now produced by The PHP Group and serves as the formal reference to the PHP language. PHP is free software released under the PHP License, which is incompatible with the GNU General Public License (GPL) due to restrictions on the usage of the term PHP. While PHP originally stood for "Personal Home Page", it is now said to stand for "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor", a recursive acronym.
