Greg already made a good point that impressing developers might be
the easiest by giving them access to become their own webmasters...

You might have them "publish" in the APACHE account, but it might be
even better to tell them to create a ./public_html subdirectory in
their MPE home group, open it up for read access across accounts and
then access their own little web site as "http://your3k/~USER.ACCT",
which enables them to help you build a "spiffy" or even useful site.

You could hyperlink the best contributions from the main home page.

I personally prefer simple web pages, plain HTML, as few images as
possible (or reasonble). Better have useful info than e-fluff ;-)

However, you might be able to impress people by adding Java Applets
from one of the large sites collecting them (eg a crossword puzzle
on your "leisure corner" page...) -- one of the interesting ones is
the Java Telnet Applet, which brings up an VT320 emulation inside
your web browser... Not an HP emulation like Minisoft Javelin or
WRQ Enterview, so don't try running VPLUS programs, but it is very
small (quick download and launch) and Open Source, i.e. free :-)

See http://www.first.gmd.de/persons/leo/java/Telnet/ for download.

Remember that Java Applets run inside the web browser and thus do not
need any Java on the MPE side of the game. For the web server an applet
is just another file to be sent to the browser, like a GIF or JPEG.

Oh, and consider putting some of your frequently used Word docs or
PowerPoint presentations (eg Org Charts) up via "Save as HTML"...

PS... Make sure to educate your developers to only use bytestream files!

PS/2: Borrow ideas from other web sites by using "View Source" in browser.
