The Kent Washington Stake Web site is a dynamically generated web site using win/NT for the server OS, IIS (MS Internet Information Server) and ASP (MS - Active Server Pages) technologies. The pages are build on the fly using ASP-xHTML templates. Virtually the entire site use's the same template.

Basically an ASP-xHTML template is like a form the the server use's by filling in some information. This allows us much better control of the entire look and feel of the site. With one change to the template the entire site is instantly changed.

Administration: Besides the admin benifits of using templates our site has an Admin tool. This web application allows us to change ward data, news, and other information dynamically. It also allows us to also upload files to our online file collections that create links dynamically. The tool also deals with report and analysis of collected data. This information shows us what pages are most used, hit count, etc.

The site uses the following: HTML/xHTML/DHTML, Javascript, ASP (jscript), XML, and CSS (cascading style sheets).

If your represent another stake feel free to contact us to get a copy of the code and structure of this site that you could use to help build your own site for your stake.

Our current plans to upgrade the site will include the use of XML and SOAP data services as well as more XML/ASP automation.
