This site is used as a personal exploration of emerging web technologies.
It's hand-coded dynamic html, using cascading style sheets (CSS), and PHP.
I rarely check appearance with anything but the latest version of Safari, so let me know if you find a problem. But first, see if your browser supports CSS.
The calendar is a modified version of Keith Devens's PHP code. The moon phase extensions started with some Perl code that's in the public domain. To correct some errors, I updated this to use the algorithms in Meeus' Astronomical Algorithms, second edition.
When looking for CSS pointers I stumbled on a css Zen Garden which led me to Douglas Bowman's "Stop Design", and Dunstan Orchard's "1976 design."
The right hand menu which appears on some pages is a floating navigation panel. This is generated on the fly using PHP code, which parses the request uri and figures out which information is being requested. The same routine emits that information into the body of the web page.
After some reading, I decided to steal some buttons used for the site. And I had to customize others before I could steal them.
