Website Credits

This web-site is powered by an application framework, and a companion HTML-templating toolkit, both written in the Perl® programming language.   This combination of software tools and CSS styles provides the consistent “look and feel” and behavior found throughout the site, including the menu-structure, breadcrumbs, and customized meta-tags.   The XML site-map (used by search-engines) is also generated in this way, so that it automatically reflects the current content of the site and the correct modification-date of all elements.

The web-development techniques used here allow the very-rapid development of fast, robust, professional-grade sites, without limiting in any way how the site looks, feels, or operates.   The sites thus produced are also quite “hacker”-resistant.

This site was developed by Sundial Services for itself, and it is representative of the kind of site that might be required by any on-line business of its type.   (The corresponding administrative site, used to manage this one, is not accessible by means of the Internet.)   This is a fairly-typical example of what might be called a “product brochure” site; probably the most frequently-found type of business web-site on the Internet.   Its primary business purpose is to describe a company's products and services, doing so in a reasonably visually-appealing way that works the same on all browsers, and to provide a fast and secure mechanism for customer contact and feedback.
