Latest News
As you can see, we have recently updated the Webmaster Toolkit. These tools are a set of scripts and modules that are designed for webmasters who are relatively proficient at HTML, but want to increase the power of their alumni site using the Dartmouth Name Directory to authenticate users, manage news and events and even a photo-gallery, and otherwise take advantage of Dartmouth.org's powerful PHP and MYSQL servers. We hope you're as excited as we are!

SPAM-Proof Email Links
This is the one project that is so simple and yet so necessary that we recommend
it to all webmasters with alum sites, even those that don't live on Dartmouth.org.
Click here to get rid of all email addresses on your site, allowing people
to send you emails without SPAM trollers ever getting their paws on it!
Creating Emailforms
This project is a bit more advanced, however, at its base level, it can
be done using cut and paste! It lets you create mail forms so that users
can send emails on your page without ever seeing your email addresses. It
is the more advanced version of the Spam-Proofing page.
Site Viewer
One of the most important aspects of our web community is that we share our various skills and ideas. This page should facilitate the work of seeking out how other pages look. Click here to view all of the class sites from one page.
Site Statistics
Knowing how many people are visiting our sites is an important evaluative tool. Log in and see if your class site is being used extensively, or if it's just ignored, forgotten, and probably lonely. Updated nightly. Statistics starting 19 Sept 2004.
