Most of the unfinished calculators and data pages have been
uploaded, however I am at the limit of the space allotted to me
by my ISP,
so there are a few new files that will have to wait until I can
free up some space. I had planned to leave the Javascript code
uncompressed, so it would be easy to understand for others
wishing to see how the scripts work, but, compressing these
scripts will allow more content to be made available. The
G.I.F.T. Sourcerer will decompress and re-format the scripts, but
it will not be released until later this year. Until then users
wishing to view the scripts will have to use another editor to
re-format (decompress) the scripts. PS Pad is a great freeware
editor that will reformat and compress HTML / Javascript code.

Some of the data pages containing related data have been
merged, so if you have created a bookmark to a page that is no
longer available, use the "Site Search"
to find the new location of the data.

Global Site Update:
Another major revision of the site with a considerable
increase in the Data section. There are too many changes to list
individually but the paragraphs below provide an rough
outline.
- Modified:
- Colour of all page backgrounds have been
changed to white, to reduce ink usage when pages are printed on
colour printers.
- Styles of top navigation tables changed to
simulate 2 tabbed folders.
- Nearly all formatting is contained within style
sheets and class names have been shortened to reduce overall
download time.
- All unit converters have been converted to
external Javascript files so they can be referenced from within
other data pages.
- Unit conversion pages have been reduced to 2
pages. (Linear formula [eg length, area], Non linear formula [eg
temperature]).
- HTML Data pages containing lists of properties
have been renamed to "Interactive data" and incorporate unit
converters and property lists within the same page.
- Additions:
- Cookie Clipboard (stores data from calculator /
conversion / data pages).
- New Data categories, Lists (related lists of data
in a "tree" type structure), and Interactive (calculators which
include selectable data from external files, and pages which use
a graphic interface to display information).
- Site Search Engine has been enhanced with twice
as many keywords per page.
- Framed / Non Framed interface.
- Removals:
- All medical software (and specific medical
data) has been removed to provide more space for general HTML
data and calculators.
- Combined:
- Many HTML Data pages containing related information have been
combined to reduce their size.
- Uploaded:
