What sort of website do I need to
have a WebWindow?
A WebWindow will work on any site that uses HTML. Basically
this means any website!

Do I need to know any programming
to use a WebWindow?
No. You can use a simple editor like Macromedia
Dreamweaver or Microsoft
Frontpage. The code to make a WebWindow consists of 2
lines of code that is simply copy and pasted onto your page.
Easy as 1-2-3!

How does a WebWindow work on my
site?
A WebWindow is essentially a dynamic JPG or GIF that is hosted
on our server. This GIF updates dynamically to reflect the
fuel price changes accross the areas we survey. You include
this image directly on your site from our server as a <img
src> tag. When users click on this image it generates a
Javascript popup Window. This 2nd Window is also hosted as
a page on our site.
This Window contains more detailed information about the
prices contained within the smaller Window. The technologies
used include HTML and Javascript - two very simple and widely
accepted 'languages'. For a more detailed process analysis

What software can I use to edit
my pages/install a WebWindow?
The easiest way to install a WebWindow is to copy and paste
the code we send you using a text editor like Notepad (Notepad
comes free with Windows). Other applications that we recommend

Do I need to update the WebWindow
manually?
No the Window will refresh automatically each time our price
database is updated. There is no need to change anything.

How much data does a WebWindow transfer?
Our WebWindows are optimsed to minimise size. A Window will
typically add around 5 or 6 kilobytes to your page size.

Will a WebWindow slow my page down?
WebWindows are hosted on premium dedicated servers at WebCentral,
arguably the fastest hosting service available in Australia.
This has been done to ensure that your site receives the fastest
response time possible. It is
highly unlikely that your pages will be slowed by the presence
of a WebWindow."

What happens if your server goes
offline?
Our downtime on our servers is nil to minimum. In the event
that the WebWindows server becomes temporarilly unavailable,
the space should remain blank where the Window would normally
be on your site.
