NSC - Web Support Team
Description
The NSC Web Support Team is entirely made up of volunteers. It is composed of the Web Team as such who administers the site, and those who directly contributes to a specialized area, as described in the NSC Web Team and Webmaster Terms of References.
Anyone is welcome to apply to join the Web Support Team. To be selected as an active member, you should be a full NSC member in good standing, have a working knowledge of HTML coding standards (W3C - V4.01 Transitional), and be available most of the time to respond to simple requests (additions and changes to existing files) within 48 hours from the time of receipt. Expertise/ experience in one or more of W3C Standards, JavaScript, ColdFusion, SQL, Perl, Web design and Web Graphics is definitely sought after.
Web Contributors are members who look after one or more web pages or focussed topic (e.g. racing) without being actively involved with the management of the site.
The NSC Web site currently implements HTML version 4.01 Transitional with CSS Positioning (CSS-P), DHTML, JavaScript (level 1 and 2), ColdFusion, and PERL. We are actively seeking new Web Team members with expertise in one or more of these areas, and/or in web page design and web graphics.
If you are interested to join the Web Support Team or become a Contributor in any
capacity, please contact the the Webmaster.

Email Anti-Spam Measures
All emails submitted via a user form (when the user clicks the SUBMIT button) are sent via the FORMAIL Perl Script, a secure, protected script.
ALL Email addresses on the NSC web should be "coded" by means of a PERL script.
Do not use the tag <a href="MAILTO:user@host.domain"> to start your browser's mail with an email address, and do not write an email address as user@host.domain anywhere on the web site, unless the address is dynamically generated (as in the BlueBook scripts).
Instead, for NSC.CA emails, code the email in a PERL script as follows:
for Email addresses within NSC.CA domain:
You only need to specify the username part of the Email address. The PERL script will automatically add the "at nsc dot ca" part:<a href="http://www.nsc.ca/cgi-bin/nospam.pl?username">username</a>example:
<a href="http://www.nsc.ca/cgi-bin/nospam.pl?nsc-webmaster">nsc-webmaster</a>
Note: these NSC.CA email addresses must be entered in the form mailer processing script to be active.
for all other Email addresses:
For privacy and security reasons, you may only list personal Email Addresses in plain text.
example: use
Send comments to Joe.Blogens at home dot cominstead of
Send comments to Joe.Blogens@home.com
Send a note to Webmaster to have an NSC.CA email alias created for for a volunteer personal email address.
