What is J and APL Ring

How to Join

1. Make sure your site meets all of the following criteria:
   • your site has something to do with J or/and APL
   • the page that you register must be the page that is J/APL-related
   • if you have more than one J/APL page, you may register them all or only register one, or just a "main" page
   • you are offering something of value to the J/APL community

2. Copy the graphics to your local server. Do not reference them off of someone else's server without their permission!

3. Register your page. This inserts you into the queue, not the ring, makes your site known to the WebRing program and gives you a Site ID.

   Site URL
   Site Title
   Your E-mail
   Your Name
   Password	(see warning below)
   Keywords
   Description

   Make sure to write down the Site ID that is returned! WARNING: The password you enter for this or any other WebRing is visible to the ring maintainer (me, in this case). Please use caution to ensure that nothing is compromised.

4. Add the HTML fragment below to the page which you have registered. The purpose of the ring is to link J/APL pages together, not to force people to go through many pages or screens before they can proceed. Please put the HTML fragment as high up on the page as is feasible given your layout (some folks have been remarking that it is not easy to link from site to site).

   Note the following:

   • make sure to replace YOUR-EMAIL-ADDRESS with, well, your email address.
   • replace YOUR-SITE-ID with the Site ID which was returned when you registered.
   • make sure the fragment points to images on your own site
   • if placed on a page with frames, add TARGET="_top" to all references. Remember to add the J and APL Ring code to your no frames section, if you have one.
   • if you move the page or change your email address, please remember to update your J and APL Ring code and the J and APL Ring database (see Maintenance below).
5. That's it! You should now be able to navigate the entire ring until you make it back to your homepage. An easy way to make sure that you got added correctly is to go to the homepage of the person before you in the index and see if their next button takes you to your page.
