Creating your own Software CD HTML pages

I use this CSS style sheet

If you would like to see the HTML I use on the CD goto art.wilderness.org.au/software/.

NOTE: None of the install links work becausee they relative links and are designed to work only from the CD. I don't keep versions of the Software on our server I download the latest version to my computer and edit the HTML to match the new software versions just before I compile the CD.

If you are lucky enough to have access to a web server that allows you to use server side includes

I use the following code as for the head and foot of my pages

software_inc_head.html

<!-- server side include: software_inc_head.html -->

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="software.css" type="text/css" />
<meta name="author" content="Evan Wills" />
<meta name="description" content="Open Source and Free software to replace unlicenced or poor quality proprietry software on Windows computers (and some Mac software)" />
<meta name="keywords" content="open source, software, Windows, XP, 2000, NT, 98, 95, Mac, amaya, CDex, FileZilla, Gimp, Jabber, eXodus, Gaim, Psi, Mozilla, OpenOffice.org, open office, putty, WinSCP, Xenu's Link Sleuth, ZipCentral" />
