I use this page to save some samples of web page tools I have used.
It provides me a good quick reference to handy facilities such as:
JavaScript, CSS Style sheets, forms processing, transparent and
animated GIFs, hit counter, cookies, tables, fonts and more.
These are for the most part intended for use with Internet
Explorer 3 (or later) or Netscape 3 (or later).
This will take you to another page which will prompt for your name.
This just stores your name as a cookie on YOUR computer
for later use in greeting you in a nice friendly way.
Nothing is sent back to me so I cannot see what name you entered.
Subsequent invocations of this will display to you the answer you
gave before.

JavaScript is used to verify the required fields name and phone have

support Java or if it is disabled then this will submit the form

Here is a little animation I created of a kayak roll. I even did the drawing myself...
Click on the following image for a short movie of Mauro and I. We
we're doing a trick where one canoe drives over top of another one.
While there were several failed attempts at this as Mauro will attest
we did, in the end, manage to do it without dumping. (Don't try this at home!)
If you want to stay here without jumping in Explorer just omit the
href=. For Netscape the actions will not happen without the href so
it must be there.
Perpetual Motion:
When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is
dropped, it always lands buttered side down. It was proposed to strap
giant slabs of hot buttered toast to the back of a hundred tethered
cats; the two opposing forces will cause the cats to hover, spinning
inches above the ground. Using the giant buttered toast-cat array, a
high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.
These fonts may only be available if you are running a Windows operating system.
Note that if you use these the client viewing your site must also
have the font installed.
