Webbed

The Silver Vixen is out at a sewing event in Chichester. The Gorse Fox is scratching a metaphorical itch that has been growing for a few months. The web site he runs on behalf of people from across the world with the same surname as he has been looking a bit jaded. It could do with an update and a bit of a face lift.

This itch, has been combined with a wish to find out more about the Joomla Content Management System. The result is that GF is now working through the old web site, page by page, and copying them into Joomla. It is a lengthy process. Not because Joomla is difficult, but because a) there are a lot of pages to convert, and b) the Microsoft tool he used to build the existing site generated dreadful html-tags which now need cleaning up.

GF is several hours into it, and suspects it may be a further day or two before it is finished and ready for public consumption. (Then it will be time to start on his own family web site).
