Kitplanes Columns

George Patterson took the task on and has done an absolutely splendid job
translating the first article.

To have a looksee a George's handiwork, www.rstengineering.com/kitplanes and go
to the bottom article (July '02).

George, the gang owes you one, and so do I.

The August '02 raw data is posted in the usual place.

Jim

-Again I ask...is anybody fool enough to take my Kitplanes column raw data and
-put it into downloadable format for the rest of the gang?

There's two mismatches between the KP0207.htm file and the other files: the parts
list file and full test PDF are Kpparts.pdf and Kptext.pdf on the webserver, but are
KPparts.pdf and KPText.pdf in the URLs in the KP0207.htm file (note the case
difference in the "P"s). So the real URLs to the full text and parts list a

http://www.rst-engr.com/kitplanes/KP0207/Kptext.pdf

I imagine that the above to references will break here shortly when Jim fixes the
KP0207.htm file or renames the PDFs.

George...

In terms that any competent history major can understand, can you tell me how
you want me to fix this type mismatch?

Well, the fastest way to fix it is to rename the two files to match the URLs.
Alternately, I can change the URLs in the html file and resend that. If you go the
first route, rename "Kpparts.pdf" to "KPparts.pdf" and rename "Kptext.pdf" to
"KPText.pdf". The difference in names also exists on my computer; the reason I didn't
catch it is that the link still works for me. It didn't show up in testing.

I'll double-check for that sort of thing with August.

This marriage is off to a shaky start. The groom just asked the band to
play "Your cheatin' heart", and the bride just requested "Don't come home
a'drinkin' with lovin' on your mind".

Easiest in the future to use all lowercase for filenames and URLs. It
avoids problems with Win/DOS being case insensitive.

I am now FTPing the files up to a directory on my web site for testing. Since most
web servers are UNIX boxes, I expect that any problems in this regard will pop up
immediately.

Some web authouring software (Windoze based) will use upper/lower case in
the program and html files then safe the respective files in all lowercase
which works ok if your ISP uses a Windows based web server, but with a lot
of servers running Linux OS and Apache web server it will not work if you
use FTP to upload your files but probably will work if you use their
program to "publish to the web".
I have 3 web sites I maintain and I have to manually edit the HTML files
each time I update to correct the case problem.

Please... keep all file names lower case. Also, please, please be really
pedantic on URL filesnames:

Only:
0-9, a-z, _ - .

No other characters. No !@#$:;%^&*()+|\/ {I swear I must have seen
each one in some URL sometime.}

Yea, you may get away with it for a while, until you start getting
into cross-platform situations. Then you have a mess.
