The MyQuestionsMatter website was developed during 2007 and the early part of 2008*. The aim of the site is to improve a patient's interaction with health care professionals (GPs, nurses, etc) by generating a list of questions relevant to their medical condition. This list can then be printed out and taken along to an appointment.
* The original site was developed in 2004 by Cogent Thought.
PHP/MySQL database-driven web site (Europlants)
This web site, which was developed at the beginning of 2007, uses a bespoke Content Management System (CMS) developed in PHP/MySQL to enable the content in specific parts of the site to be easily managed by a site administrator. Other parts of the site, which change very infrequently, use static HTML, formatted using a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS).
When you access the site, you can view existing articles and photos, and, having registered and logged on, you can also upload/create new articles or edit existing ones.
The Computer Nostalgia site provides a repository for articles and photos relating to the history of computers.
The site makes extensive use of cookies, both session cookies and permanent cookies that are stored on your computer. If you have either of these disabled in your browser, you will not be able to create/edit articles on the site.

This is a version of the ITU News that uses a template developed by John Dixon Technology. We produced several HTML and PDF versions of the newsletters. The source files for the newsletters were delivered to us in PageMaker format.
We designed the template and style sheet for the HTML, and created the HTML pages. Macromedia HomeSite was used as the development tool.
PHP/MySQL web utility (user survey / poll)
This simple web utility, which uses MySQL as the relational database management system and PHP as the server-side scripting language, enables users to respond to a poll about which areas of a web site they use. They are then able to view the results of the poll.
Please note that the web area names used in this demo version of the poll are just sample names.
Click here to open a form and increment a few of the poll options.
This simple user survey / poll is available as a FREE download.
PHP/MySQL database-driven web site (notice board)
This database-driven web site uses MySQL as the relational database management system and PHP as the server-side scripting language.
When you access the site, you can either sign in as "guest@dixon.co.uk" (for the email address) and "guest" (for the password), or you can register yourself as a new user. There are already a few sample notice board items so that you can see how the site works. As this is just a dummy site, feel free to add/remove/edit items as you wish.
This application lets you create items and view items that have been created by other users. When viewing items, you can choose to view all the items on the notice board or, alternatively, only those items that fall within a particular category, say, vehicles, household items, or accommodation, or perhaps all three. To create items, you need to be registered and signed in.
