MakeHTMLMap: Update version 4.017 to fix some errors
Roland Heyders Shareware-Program MakeHTMLMap is update to
version 4.017. The software createds Picture-galeries and online-shops.
The Systemrequirements are AmigaOS 2.04 and 2 MB RAM.
This update fixed some errors during naming of PHP-files.
Statement of Roland Heyder (in german): "Ja, ja, da hat Murphys Gesetz mal wieder
voll zugeschlagen. Kaum hab' ich die brandneue V4.000 von MakeHTMLMap
veröffentlicht, da entdecke ich eine Woche später den entscheidenden
Fehler, der auf Grund seiner 'Offensichtlichkeit' bei allen Tests
bis dahin unentdeckt blieb.
Selbstverständlich sollte natürlich bei jeder Datei, wo PHP-Code
drin ist, auch PHP drauf-/dranstehen. D.h. daß solche Dateien
in der Form #?.php? gespeichert werden und nicht als #?.html;
anderenfalls kommt es zu unerwünschten Effekten, wenn diese
Dateien auf einem Server abgelegt werden, welcher in HTML-Dateien
kein PHP interpretiert (hängt von der Serverkonfiguration ab).
Hier ist nun also das entsprechend korrigierte Programmarchiv,
kein großartiger Bugfix aber um so mehr ein wichtiger, um die
Funktion der generierten Galerien bzw. Online-Shops auf allen
Servern (mit PHP-Unterstützung) sicherzustellen."

Laser inscription with Amiga motifs, Part III
amiga-news.de reader Gernot "Gerry" Stühn had already made promotions multiple times, where Amiga users could get individual laser engravings on (for instance) stainless steel cups. Because of the surprisingly good response at that time, he would like to submit such an offer again. Stühn writes:
"As you still surely know, some time ago I had started an attempt to revive the Amiga and its corresponding remaining spirit again. In collaboration with my company, I had offered some products for laser engraving.
The response for this spontaneous promotion was amazingly good. Unfortunately, or, put another way, thank God, I am now no longer working at my former employer, "Lasertechnologie Winter." But in a short time I will consult four local laser companies, among others, about my new concept (am now self-employed). Thus, another chance to bring up some things, also in the Amiga domain again, arises of course, which could go in the direction of stainless steel unicums in matters of laser inscription.
But for this, I must necessarily know if there is still interest at all. Please use the contact form on my page for this (alternative link). I would be glad if we wangled it one more time.
AMIGA rulez..
Greetings,
Gerry ;)" (cg) (Translation: cad)
