How to download and install skyBuilders timeLines

How to download and install skyBuilders timeLines webWare.

Download skyBuilders timeLines today and check it out. You can use it to run demo databased web sites for your favorite organizations. You may then qualify as a skyBuilders developer, share in timeLines sales, and possibly earn royalty income.

The current beta version is 0.98 and runs on WindowsNT/2000 with IIS 4 or higher. Later this year we will release PHP, JSP, and Perl versions for Windows and Unix/Linux.

You should be familiar with running Internet Information Server and ASP with VBScript. It helps if you have some experience with databases. JavaScript is a plus since all the browser/client-side code is in JavaScript.

You should spend some time working with our sandBox installation. You can log in as a guest, and then join as a member. Or log in as an administrator and try out all the timeLines administration pages. You can change the new member's privileges, etc. Then log back in as the member to get a feeling for timeLines from the user's view. It's all available at sandBox.skyBuilders.com

Basic steps are:

Read and accept our Open Source License
Choose a site to download the timeLines file including 200+ open server pages and the ODBM database.
Expand the self-extracting zipped file inside a directory (or virtual directory) on your web server.
Check that your web server settings are appropriate for running a web application behind the server, and timeLines in particular. (timeLines needs some special settings, e.g., an Application Mapping that sends html files to asp.dll for processing.)
Make the directory a web site.
Navigate to http://yourwebsitename.com/timeLines and log in as Admin with password Admin.

skyBuilders does not sell to developers. We are hoping to sell through developers, splitting the income from a sale. You can earn consulting income supporting your sites. skyBuilders will provide Help files on the web and email tech support.
