Today a search on Google with Joomla would return four millions English sites. Including other languages this number would be much higher.

I have been thinking for some time for making a guide to EOT creation detailing all the steps. I have met a number of users having problems in creating EOT or facing performance problem after creating one. They couldn't find the clue. This inspired me to write this tutorial. I had to create EOT while developing the voter list web site. I had taken a number of screen shots for now. We are going to create an EOT from SolaimanLipi font. This tutorial has been written by Syed Ziaul Habib Roboon. |

After being frustrated by the poor screen quality of available Bangla fonts, we have taken initiatives to produce high screen quality Bangla font. Boishakhi is undoubtedly the best screen font released ever. However, it does not support Unicode and the vendor Alpona portal has gone out f business. We picked the freely available Lohit font from Ekushey group and added true type hinting so that it looks very good on screen. The new font has been renamed AponaLohit. Below is the joomla.org.bd home page viewed with our hinted font. The font can be downloaded from the download section. Please read the licensing conditions before you download.

A dynamic website has many benefits apart from its dynamic behaviour. PHP has now become the de facto standard for dynamic website. A huge number of PHP scripts have been written by different individuals and are available for free or price on the Internet. Popular Content Management Software (CMS) like Joomla has also been written in PHP. Another common practice of dynamic website is to store the content in a database, commonly MySQL one. A full featured website or forum now runs PHP scripts backed by an MySQL database. Apache is the predominant web server program that common web developers don’t need to bother about because it is usually setup by web hosting providers. Some websites may also use Perl scripts that need a Perl interpreter software on the server. |
