About lovell-online

What can I say?. It's a website.

Well, this place first appeared back in 2003 sometime on a completely different webhost. Then they started getting things very wrong (wrong-diddly-wrong-wrong) so I ended up at another webhost. It's Spring 2008 now. And I'm thinking of moving again...
The site started with the domain name lovell-online.net. Then came lovell-online.co.uk. More recently came lovell-online.eu. I've pointed .co.uk at the professional parts of my site, and .eu at the main page.

The site has been written with words, using a little editor known as vi (currently at version 7 for vim). I don't do WYSIWYG editors (as you get what you see, plus a load of other stuff that breaks the compliance of the page with the W3C). Some people don't get this, so I just let them get on with things. And then watch them spend days trying to fix their layout or CSS. <evil cackle>.

I also use GIMP and sometimes Paint Shop Pro X for graphics & image editing.

The site has been written by me using PHP on Apache under GNU/Linux (or Linux/GNU depending on your point of view). If I ever get around to it there might even be a sprinking of PostgreSQL or MySQL on here (change of host/pay them more).



This is a version of this page. Since I haven't checked pages into CVS for a while, it'd be pointless to guess at the revision number
