Answers

  1. Your opening page has a javascript error saying that "popup" is undefined. Can't you get rid of these messages?
    The error "popup is undefined" is due to the way that my web space provider operates and the error cannot be removed. Please bear with me and simply close the dialog box that appears. Do not run the debugger if you are using Internet Explorer 5 with Office 2000 as it may severely slow down your system for some time preventing further browsing
  2. I cannot see any menu on the top. All I can see is a note saying that I'm not using Internet Explorer. What does the message mean?
    The menu on the top will be visible only if you use Internet Explorer 4.x or above. If you are using Internet Explorer 3.x or Netscape, Opera etc. Please visit the site designed for Netscape. Sorry for the trouble.
  3. I am unable to see any headlines on the first page. What is the problem?
    The headline on the first page is a javascript and will be visible only if Javascript is enabled in the browser.
  4. How is that you page's alignment is so poorly done?
    This page is best viewed 800*600 resolution or above. In case if your monitor is set to a lower resolution., please change it. Your resolution can be found by clicking here
  5. I am using Opera. I am unable to see most parts of your web page. What is the problem?
    Opera as it is does not support Javascript or Java applets and the Javascript engine and the Java Virtual Machine have to be downloaded. Therefore I would recommend you to start using Internet Explorer 5.x as it has an inbuilt support for all these and is also free.
  6. I'm using Lynx. All I can see is a bunch of links and some text. What am I to do?
    Sorry buddy. No chance. Lynx being a text only browser, you cannot view most parts of my page. I would recommend you to change your ISP to one which supports TCP/IP and use other great browser like Internet Explorer. I will soon be releasing a text only version of this site. Give me your e-mail and I will notify you then.
  7. Is it safe to enable Javascript and Activex to view your pages?
    Yes it is safe as far as my page is concerned as I don't write or store cookies to your Hardisk or take any personal information from you. But I would advise you to turn off activex as soon as you leave my site.
  8. What in the world is DHMTL and why isn't my browser supporting it?
    DHTML stands for Dynamic HTML which allows you to dynamically change the content of your site without refreshing. Most command used in DHTML is supported only in IE5 or above and mostly not supported in Netscape. Incase you want to see the beautiful DHTML effects on my site, then be sure to use Internet Explorer 5.x or above.
  9. Your page is verrrrrry slow. What are you going to do about it?
    I know my page is slow and that it takes about 20 -30 seconds for each page to load on a 28.8 kbps line. I shall soon be shifting to a faster server and maybe the acess time will be less. Only the initial page will be slow, some section like the education and the games sections will be very fast.
  10. Are the content of your site copyrighted? Where do you get the content from?
    The content of my site is not copyrighted. Any information or content that you like can be obtained by asking me only. This site is a collection of the best content available on the web. The content is displayed as it is without any modification from the content provider.
  11. Who are your sponsers? How can I setup my own page like this?
    You can view my sponsers in sponsers page. Constructing your own site like this is pretty easy but beyond the scope of discussion in this forum. Incase you want more information, mail me.
  12. Where can I contact you?
    Get my complete contact address at the contacts page
  13. Sorry no answer here
  14. I'm using Netscape. The menu on top is not visible. How am I to navigate?
    Incase if you are using Netscape, then on the first page, double click anywhere to get menu. You will have to come back to the first page every time you click on a link. The link to the previous page on the top can be useful, or click the back button
  15. I'm using Internet Explorer 5. Is there anything special for this browser on this site?
    IE5 can use a specially designed page that is enriched in DHMTL and Java. Other browser users cannot view this page properly. Why don't you all upgrade your browser to IE5?
  16. What does IE, NS, DHTML, JS etc. mean?
    IE     stands for Internet Explorer(followed by a number denoting its version)
    NS     stands for Netscape Navigator(followed by a number denoting its version)
    DHTML     stands for Dynamic Hyper Text Markup Language
    JS     stands for Javascript (a scripting language)
  17. Why do games in the applet section do not work. It says Java machine is required
    The games in the Java section are designed using Java and uses the Java Virtual Machine. I recommend you to download it as it may be useful in viewing other sites also.
  18. The education section is very informative. Can I rely on the information given?
    I do not stand responsible for the crediblity of the information and not liable for any wrong information given. Enough of scaring you. The information is mostly correct though I would recommend you to go to the respective websites to check the information. The URL can be obtained by contacting me
  19. The Maps
    The maps are a service provided by Yahoo! maps. For more detailed maps go to their site.
  20. What are the programs used in creating the site?
    I use Macromedia Dreamweaver 3, Microsoft Frontpage 2000, EVRsoft's Firstpage 2000, and the good old Notepad. The site is co hosted by Angelfire, freeservers, IIT Madras (Aerodynamics Dept.), Satyamonline and Workspot
