the star www pages

The STAR www site is written primarily with PHP, a scripting language that is ideally suited for web development due to its cross-platform portability, an approachable syntax, and its broad feature set. PHP also has built-in support for mySQL database tables, and much of the site's content (collaboration, publications, meetings, physics results, etc.) is created dynamically from PHP-based mySQL queries.

As a Collaboration, STAR makes use of the web for much of its daily functioning: communication, documentation, organization, etc. In addition to being a tool for the Collaboration, the web also serves as a means for introducing our experiment, sharing our enthusiasm, and conveying our results to the rest of the interested world. This includes both scientists and non-scientists alike.
