We are compiling a list of frequently asked questions about our web site and the various links that are included in them.

Please E-Mail Us below with any question.  We will attempt to add the question and our answer to the list on a timely basis.


WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS PROJECT?

The Buckner Chamber Of Commerce, The Fort Osage Fire Protection District, and the City of Buckner felt it was time to make our presence known on the "WEB" (World Wide Web) and to provide a informational center for our community.

This project would include serious content about our community and a starting point for other links on the world wide web, as well as some fun items for casual enjoyment.

Snead's Safety Sales, a local business,  already had several pages on the web and some knowledge about internet connections, designing web pages and the HTML coding language so they joined the project to help get things started.

The project is going well, however we need more information from everyone in the community so that the information can be added to the various pages within our site.


I UNDERSTAND THERE IS BACKGROUND MUSIC BEHIND SOME OF THE PAGES.  WHY CAN'T I HEAR IT?

Your computer must have a sound card, speakers and be running at least Windows Version 3.0.  This can be a elaborate subject.  Click on the link below to get some of the answers.

THERE'S LITTLE BOX'S ON SOME OF THE PAGES WITH A X IN IT AND SAYS IMAGE .  WHAT ARE THEY?

Most of our pages include pictures or animated images.  If you are not seeing pictures you need to upgrade your computer to a Windows version, preferably Windows 95/98 or better.

 If you are on American On Line you will need to upgrade to AOL version 3.0 or later for animation.

Microsoft Internet Explorer version 3.0 or higher or Netscape version 3.0 or later are also highly recommended as your browser for maximum viewing & listening pleasure.


CAN I PUT MY WEB PAGE ON YOUR SITE?

Sorry, the answer is no to this question.  We are not a internet service provider or a web hosting service.

We are limited on space for our project pages, however we will provide a link to your page through one of our index links.

Your will need your own internet service provider, (ISP) and a host server.  There are many ISP's that are providing free web space to their subscribers such as American On Line, Netcom, and Compuserve.  There are also several local ISP's such as Sunflower and Discovery Net.

There are other services that are not ISP's but provide free web page space for non-commercial use such as 100MEGS.com, Tripod, Angel Fire & Fortune City.  As long as you have a ISP you can use these free web hosting sites to store your web pages.

There are also many professional hosting services for commercial accounts.


WILL YOU PROVIDE A LINK TO MY PERSONAL WEB PAGE ON YOUR SITE?

Yes!  We will review your site before we provide the link.  The only stipulation is that it be rated for "all ages" and not provide any links to "adult content" sites.  E-mail us with your URL (Uniform Resource Locator) address.  For additional information about rated pages for "all ages" see our Kids Page.
