Digital DTG site Screen

This web site is the shop-window for the Digital Television Group, who are the industry body representing the digital television industry in the UK.

The site was designed by the DTG's graphic design supplier (Fifthcorner) and built by ATSF using XHTML, PHP, Perl and CSS.

News is input into the site's news system directly by the DTG's journalists and other pages are regularly updated by the DTG or by ATSF from copy provided by the DTG. The news section is driven entirely from a MySQL database allowing sophisticated keywording and searching. Databases are also used for other dynamic parts of the site.

ATSF also devised and wrote a bespoke database application which runs on the server and allows visitors to enter their post code and find out what digital terrestrial television channels they can expect to receive. Perl is used to drive this database and to automatically build a page of information on set-top-box downloads for retailers.
