Technology
On this page will be a reference to every technology used in Newanz.
Tom de Bruijn made the first version of the website, not counting interruptions, in about 3 to 4 months. Now the latest version of EPT, EPT 4 is build in about two months.
The website of Newanz is optimized for Opera en Firefox and we tried to pay attention to Internet Explorer, but it really came thirth place after Firefox. So if you are having trouble reading this website or others properly switch today to the other FREE alternatives.
But we now have our own system. It easier to customize and we don't have to make a different layout just to fit that particular system.
The Website
On the website the EPT, Every Page Technology, is made in PHP. Why PHP? We choose for PHP since it's free, supported by most webhosts (including ours) and is very easy in use. The website is supported by a database. This allows to save information better and give more dynamic content.Tom de Bruijn made the first version of the website, not counting interruptions, in about 3 to 4 months.

Optimizing the Website
Most people who 'surf' the Internet use Internet Explorer from Microsoft. But there are alternatives. For example we use the Opera Webbrowser because it's fast, easy in use and reads the HTML and scripts of the websites correctly, something in which Internet Explorer sometimes fails.The website of Newanz is optimized for Opera en Firefox and we tried to pay attention to Internet Explorer, but it really came thirth place after Firefox.

The Forums
The forums are since EPT 4 integrated into the website itself. The previous forums were in a different layout not fitting the website. We used the Simple Machines Forum.But we now have our own system. It easier to customize and we don't have to make a different layout just to fit that particular system.
