CGI work
Here are some of the CGI programs that I've done. They are programmed in
Perl, which is a language which
lends itself nicely to this kind of work.
My term project
As part of the computer science study, the students shall complete a major
programming task, usually working two and two. I wanted to do something
related to the web, so together with
Reidar Agasøster I
worked on a system for
presenting exam results on
the web. With this system, a student can get a list of his exam results
either from the most current semester, a specific semester, or from his
whole period at the school. Each student must supply a number which serves
as an authentication, so the results are rather private. The system
was developed in the spring of 1996, and was put into use here at HiS in
June, as the first such system in Norway.
The web page search form
To facilitate the lookup of specific items of information, I wrote a
program for
searching the contents of my web pages. The
search can be in all pages, or be confined to specific sections (ie. Enigma,
Sandra, personal pages).
Mailing list archives search
This is a program that
searches the monthly archives of the
Enigma mailing list. These archives contain all communication that have
taken place on the list, and is an excellent source of information. The
search program makes it easy to consult these archives.
Display individual archive messages
Working in conjunction with the above program, this program displays
individual messages from the archive files. After the search program
has produced a list of messages that contain the search expression,
this program retrieves each message the user selects. Any URLs in the
original text message is linked up.
Miscellaneous
In addition to the above, there are various programs in use around the
web pages to take care of things like imagemaps, virtual paths and
other "behind the scenes" tasks.
