Some notes about design aspects of this website, which I couldn't find a place for elsewhere.

Scripts

I use a python script to generate the html markup for this site. This isn't quite as efficient as server-side includes, but it works fairly well. For the style-sheet selection and some other things, I use javascript.

I'm especially proud of the javascript e-mail generator. This is what powers the "Display e-mail address" box in my Contact Information section. If you want to know how it works, or use it yourself, check the E-mail display page.

You're welcome to use code from the html, css, or javascript if you want (that's how I learned, after all :) If you end up using substantial pieces without much modification, it would be nice to have some credit, but I'll probably never find out anyway!

Tracking

This site uses Google Analytics to track usage. It provides a wealth of information that helps me make the site better, including information about its visitors and how the site is used.
