Technical Information

Browser Support

This web site has been designed for use by modern web browsers. I have developed and tested it using Mozilla Firefox 1.5 and Internet Explorer 6, both running under Windows XP. However, I do not guarantee that I have thoroughly tested all components of this site, nor do I guarantee that you will not experience any errors (in display or functionality) when browsing the site. As noted above, your use of this web site is at your own risk.

I have developed this site using standards-based technologies, including HTML 4.01 (Transitional DTD) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Level 2.1. These technologies are supported by most modern web browsers. This site currently uses JavaScript to display the slide show of images on the home page.

Personal note: I recommend Mozilla Firefox. It is available for most operating systems, and—particularly for Windows users—it is widely considered to be more secure and less vulnerable to many kinds of malicious software than Internet Explorer. Plus, it offers a host of features that make surfing the web easier and safer.

Accessibility Support

I have attempted to make the site accessible to assistive technologies, and to support accessibility features provided by modern browsers. Each page provides the following access keys to navigate quickly to the main content and the navigation links:

• Access key 2: skip to main content.
• Access key 3: skip to navigation.
• Access key 4: skip to information on accessibility support (this text).

While I have tried to make a good faith effort in this regard, I do not have access to most assistive technologies; therefore, I do not guarantee that this site works with any particular assistive technology, nor that it meets any of the requirements, standards, or guidelines in Section 508 or the Web Accessibility Initiative. If there is a specific accessibility issue you would like addressed on the site, please let me know and I'll do my best to accomodate you.
