An under the covers peek at the Infopeople web site
The current incarnation of the Infopeople web site was
designed and built mid 2005 by Lloyd Borrett, founder of
Chaordent.
Lloyd also designed the Infopeople logotype.
Tools
Adobe Illustrator CS and Adobe PhotoShop CS were used to
build the graphics for the web site.
NoteTab
Light was used as the text editor to write the content.
Platform
The Infopeople web site runs using the Etomite Content
Management Systems, an open source solution released under
the GNU license scheme. Etomite is a CMS solution built using the
PHP scripting
language with MySQL
for the database.
Several Etomite Snippets were created to generate various
elements of the web pages, e.g. the page crumbs, various menus,
page specific meta tags etc. Snippets were also used to generate
pages from the documents database, e.g. site map, news listing etc.
The DHTML Menu used for the main top menu is licensed from
Milonic.
The web site is hosted by JaguarPC on servers running the Linux
operating system, using the Apache web server.
