In Southern Lent
On 60.52.7 TRINPsite comprises 830 public files, of which approximately
654 different or 'unique' ones: 121 *.htm (not *Txt.htm), 6 *.html,
395 *.HTM, 1 *Txt.htm, 1 *.wml, 6 style sheets, 8 JavaScript files, 81
pictures, 4 ikons and 31 sound files.
Forms of Action and Nonaction, Thought and
Nonthought, the first division of the fifth chapter of the Book of
Symbols, has been given an own nodal document in the MNI branch of files.
Its fourth section, A Funeral Ceremony, contains The Final
Anagnorisis, which has been recorded. The information that The
Final Anagnorisis has been turned into a sound file does, of course,
not belong to the Model of Neutral-Inclusivity itself. Therefore the
division file was created with the data of the sound file and an immediate
link for those who want to listen to it. (Like all nodal files this file
too can be used at any time for additional information about the
division itself or its sections.)
Another *.htm file added was indRight.htm, which is used with
indMult.htm and indLeft.htm in multiple
viewing. It is basically a technical file which will normally not even be
seen by JavaScript users. For non-JavaScript users there is a comment
inviting them to have a look at the
Active Content of Text Files document.
At a later stage indRight.htm may also be used for other technical
purposes.
The third and last file added in this period was Advice.js, which by
definition will only work for JavaScript users. And even for them it should
appear under no other than exceptional circumstances.
The use of the VariViewing and Multiple Viewing features started to cause
problems where the frame or window in which pages were shown had to
be detected first. While browsers used to accept standard simple JavaScript
statements in the past to find the name of a frame or window, they may not
allow this anymore at present for security reasons. On-line this led to
errors and messages such as Access denied, which can be annoying for
someone who does not try to do anything illegal or illegitimate. Meanwhile
measures have been taken to circumvent these problems. One such measure is
the use of the argument VV_T=true in the href string of the
document. However, this new approach in VariViewing has not been finalized
yet.
In Northern Mid- and Late Lent, Equatorial Month and
Southern Yule
On 60.40.7 TRINPsite comprises 827 public files, of which approximately
651 different or 'unique' ones: 119 *.htm (not *Txt.htm), 6 *.html,
395 *.HTM, 1 *Txt.htm, 1 *.wml, 6 style sheets, 7 JavaScript files, 81
pictures, 4 ikons and 31 sound files.
At the beginning of this period the crossword
puzzles were further improved. The pages are not divided into two
frames anymore but use one 'iframe' instead. This is the first use of
'iframes', that is, internal frames, at TRINPsite. As a result of a
different interplay between HTML, JS and CSS scripts and files the general
crossword files Clues.HTM and Crosswrd.HTM were no longer needed. The
presentation and use of the puzzles has become much pleasanter now.
The only new work added to TRINPsite during these months was the short
story Sumati Can Wait. This story clearly consists of two halves, of
which the first half can even be read without the second. Therefore the
story is offered to the reader in two separate documents:
Sumati Can Wait, Part One and
Sumati Can Wait, Part Two (which should only be accessed after
having read the first half).
Apart from the crossword puzzles and the new short story the appearance and
contents of some existing documents were changed. As a new 'note of the
metric month' continues to be shown in
the main document every month and as the
period from Northern Mid-Lent to Southern Equinoctional covers no fewer
than six months the same number of notes was added to the
Notes of the Metric Months
document. Changes in other files were relatively small.
In Northern Late Yule and Equinoctial Month
On 60.16.7 TRINPsite comprises 827 public files, of which approximately
651 different or 'unique' ones: 119 *.htm (not *Txt.htm), 6 *.html,
395 *.HTM, 1 *Txt.htm, 1 *.wml, 6 style sheets, 7 JavaScript files, 81
pictures, 4 ikons and 31 sound files.
In this period the work on Given names for
persons was continued. Not only were many new given names added, but
also the reason and idea behind the use of such names were better
explained. Moreover,
a special crossword puzzle was
developed in which the 'words' to be entered are personal names only. It is
called "Personal given names for everybody (m/f)" and it should in a less
serious way encourage the attention for and use of personal names. The
nodal file
Crossword Puzzles was updated in connection
with this addition.
The introduction of a new interactive crossword puzzle (the third on this
site) led to some general improvements for all crosswords too. The most
important improvement is that the crosswords are now shown in a left, main
frame, while the clues are shown in the right frame and not in little
pop-up windows anymore. (The clues are also shown at the bottom of the
page, but as long as the crossword is filled in while the page is loading,
it is not possible to go to the bottom of a page in the meanwhile.) With
the introduction of these frames two new pages were needed: Crosswrd.HTM
for the left and Clues.HTM for the right frame. These two files are used
for all crosswords, while the different crossword files themselves are
called
"CrssW001.HTM" et cetera. A page
such as CrssW001.HTM contains the puzzle-specific data and defines the
frames within the window (or the subframes within the frame). By preventing
the 'ENTER/CHANGE WORD' script prompt from being activated during
VariViewing (see below) the crossword puzzle pictures
Game/Pzzl/CrssW001.gif and /CrssW002.gif became superfluous. They have been
deleted.
Altho Game/Pzzl/CrssW003.HTM was the only new document added during these
two months, the content of several existing documents was extended and the
appearance of other existing documents improved. Two such documents are
Questions and Answers and
Search Engine Prominence. The former
document contains new answers to new comments and the latter new TRINPsite
pages which can be found at more or less prominent places in global search
engines. What to think, for example, of the TRINPsite document
The principle of beneficence being
placed fifth by Google on a world list for such a universal word as
beneficence?
While checking how TRINPsite is presented in the browser Mozilla Firefox
some problems were encountered. Like with Netscape Navigator,
the Variviewing feature in the main index
page does not work properly with Firefox either. However, the
interactive crossword puzzles can be accessed with Internet Explorer,
Firefox and, one may assume, other browsers.
In Northern Early and Mid-Yule
On 60.08.7 TRINPsite comprises 826 public files, of which approximately
648 different or 'unique' ones: 119 *.htm (not *Txt.htm), 6 *.html,
392 *.HTM, 1 *Txt.htm, 1 *.wml, 6 style sheets, 7 JavaScript files, 81
pictures, 4 ikons and 31 sound files.
Three new leaves have been added to the Notes and Papers branch.
The main branch itself now carries
Entropy, gravity and electricity in a
neutral perspective, a basic text file, and
Given names for persons, a nodal text file.
The latter document actually functions as a basic one too at the moment,
but it will probably become the node for a new sub-branch dedicated to
names and naming systems for individuals. The Notes of the Metric
Months sub-branch now carries the latest file for this year until the
year 63:
Notes of the Metric Months from 60
aSWW.
The old basic file ShSt/OtherDay.HTM with four fictional legends classified
as short stories has been deleted and replaced by a nodal file called
"The Other Day ..." with links to the four,
partially renewed old legends and to one new legend in separate basic
documents in a new subdirectory:
[Note: With the exception of About dikes and damns these
short stories were later incorporated into Legends of the Future,
Part Three of Triptych of Times, published by Vincent van Mechelen,
66 aSWW.
See http://mvvm.net/Tong/ThL/Fict/Triptych.htm for more details.]
As usual, the present new leaf for the 11th year of TRINPsite's existence
was attached to the Additions and Revisions branch as well.
Normally no mention is made here of the replacement of old formats by the
the latest format. At the moment this format is F6. New text files will
always be in F6, while more and more old text files are converted to this
format. For those using JavaScript there is no visible difference between a
text file in F5 or one in F6 format. Therefore this conversion has no
priority. However, the difference between a file in F6 and a file in a
document format older than F5 may be remarkable.
Until recently text files were listed on
the main index page under Index of Pages and not
on
the page with the lists of files. The reason
was that their presence is required there for the Variviewing feature.
This meant tho that the index page contained technical details, such
as URLs, which should actually be presented, together with new details, in
the Lists of Files. Hence, it has been decided to gradually eliminate
technical details from the index page and to gradually list all text files
in the Lists of Files too. The disadvantage is that text files will have to
be listed twice, but the advantage is that the index page will become
shorter and its appearance greatly enhanced. At the same time there is no
objection against adding more useful information, such as document formats,
on the page with the lists of files.
