Welcome to the Dale Harris Educational Software Forum

[sysadmin]

This is the place to ask questions and get answers about Software written by Dale Harris.

Things are very new and we are not all used to them, so if you have any problems let me know by email. Expect some changes in the near future as we adapt things to the needs of the community and the users of Dale Harris' software.

Finally, a few notes on why phpbb is the forum in use.
This particular forum package was chosen because I felt if met our needs as well as possible. It supports everything we need and has a large group of users willing to help out if we want to make changes. Finally, this was the only package which I tried that actually did everything that it's documentation said it would, without any problems.

Thanks to the makers of PHPBB for putting together a solid package for us, and thanks to those who helped us test it during the brief test period.


Thanks again,
Jonathan Simpson, Forum Server administrator

Welcome to the Dale Harris Educational Software forum, please follow these guidelines while participating in this service:

- Topics should be relevant

- No abuse/spam/inappropriate content

- If the topic you wish to discuss is being covered in another thread, post a reply in that thread (unlike our old forum, topics are sorted by the last post, so if you post in an old topic - it will move to the top of the list)

- Please don't over-use features such as smilies and formatting. This forum is supplied by Jonathan Simpson and he pays for the costs of running it, if you use lots of smileys in a post, it chews bandwidth.

- As above, please limit use of smileys to a maximum of 3 per post

- Respect other forum users

So come on guys - let's keep it nice and fair for all!

The following was written by Dale Harris and has been merged into this thread...

Let me paraphrase the first note on the old forum.

Hi, Here is something new to this site provide by the swell folk Jon Simpson. If you wish to comment on anything on this site, "Dale Harris Educational Software" this is the place to do it. You can even complain that it is taking me just about forever to finish the network version of the Cash Register program.

I have spent several thousand hours writing the software that I am giving away on this site, how about spending about a minute of your time posting a question, comment, or complaint. A lot of other people visiting here would like to see the opinions of someone besides me.

Dale
