Tools

Any web site requires a huge number of tools to build and maintain it. Sure, there are packages out there that will do everything for you. Where's the fun in that? ralongalumni.org is built with a number of commercial and free tools. Some of the tools are listed here.

Browsers

Web sites, including this one, will display differently in different browsers. This web site has been tested with the browser listed below. Everything works, though not necessarily as I might like. If you use another browser and have problems then let me know; I will see what I can do to solve the problem.

Versions	OS	Comments
6, 7	XP, Vista
1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0	XP, Vista
8, 9, 9.5	Windows XP, Windows Vista, Fedora 4
3.1	Windows XP, Windows Vista, iPhone, Mac OS X	On the iPhone the Lightbox effect for the Merchandise and Gallery images may not work correctly if the iPhone has not downloaded all of the images. Depending on your internet connection, download could take a while.
8.0.4	Windows XP	Netscape Navigator has ceased development.
3.4.0-5	Fedora 4	It should also be fine on other Linux distros.
	Windows Vista	Google's new browser. This is still a beta browser and is only available for Windows.

Standards

I strongly believe in standards and adherence to the standards. That is particularly important for applications that are intended to run in many locations. Web sites are really nothing more than special types of applications intended to run in browsers. This web site has been built with that in mind and every page on ralongalumni.org should validate to the standards below.
