An On-line Bartender

Frequently Asked Questions.

I get a lot of questions about The Webtender and related issues. I`ll try to answer some of these here.

? How many drinks are there in the database?
! The number is rising every week. The latest information can be found on the statistics page.


? I submitted a drink a few weeks ago, but I can't find it here!
! There are two possible reasons:

  1. I am quite busy, but I try to add new drinks to the database every three weeks. During the holidays and exam periods I usually don't have access to the net or have time, so I'm not able to edit the database. Please be patient.
  2. I decided not to add it. If you really think it should be in the database, mail me and argue. I love a good argument (No, I don't! Yes you do! And so on, and so on, and so on... :-)

? Is it possible to get all drinks in a single file?
! The database is so dynamic now it's hard to make a complete list. You can use the "Favourites" feature to compile your own list of drinks to print. I do plan to make a complete list available in the future.


? What kind of database are you using?
! I have written the database myself. The database is based on a collection of CGI programs written in C. Only a few programs are written in Perl, and they will stay that way. I like Perl, but for heavy work C is better.


? Can you help me to locate.....?
! A lot of people as if I can help them to locate that one special drink they have been looking for. I would really like to help, but I have a lot of things to do, so the best is if you leave a note in The Webtender Forum.


? This drink is WRONG!
! Most of the drinks in The Webtender has been added using the addition form. If someone who did not know how to make a drink added it, it will be wrong. In that case, use the "Suggestions" button to inform me.


? Which browser should I use?
! The Webtender is written using HTML 3.2 tags, but should be backwards compatibe. Look at the copyright and credits to look at a list of browsers The Webtender has been tested with.


? Another question?
! Use the feedback form..


How do I pour? What is 'cl', 'oz' and 'pt'? How should I handle glassware?.
