CALL@Hull website

This website has been developed on the basis of the CTI Modern Languages site, which was redesigned in 1998 by Kylie Baxter, and redesigned again in August 2002 by Fred Riley, the current site administrator. Content was developed by all the staff who worked for CTICML over the years, including:

June Thompson (Centre Manager)
Kylie Baxter
Jo Porritt
Jenny Parsons
Claire Cartlich
Julie Venner

Content is currently maintained by Fred Riley.

Accessibility

Every effort has been made to ensure that pages on this website are at least compliant with WAI Priority 1 checkpoints, and ideally compliant with Priority 2 checkpoints. To this end, representative site pages and the site templates have been validated by Bobby, WAVE, and Vischeck, and have been tested in the text-only browser Lynx. If you come across any section of the site which is inaccessible to users with disabilities, please let us know.

Technicalities

The site is hosted on a Windows web hosting account at Titan Hosting. Pages are coded in XHTML, and stylesheets conform to the CSS2 specification. Every effort has been made to comply with W3C standards, and to render the site visible in all browsers. To this end, the site has been tested in Mozilla 1.0, Internet Explorer 6, and Netscape Navigator 4.7 and 3.01.

The new software database was developed in Microsoft Access 6, and is queried online by ASP scripts written in VBScript. Both database and scripts are hosted on a dedicated Windows NT server located in the Language Institute at the University of Hull. The old software database was also developed in Access, but is hosted on the Hull University multi-user Unix system and queried by Perl scripts.
