**Custom formatted delivery is a special option that you can add to your maintenance update service. With this option we can apply an HTML template to your calculator pages and their reports before the update is sent to you. You will then receive your calculator pages with all of your site formatting in place, without any rework to include changes that have been made to the HTML documents. If you are interested in using custom formatted delivery, please contact us at (612) 331-2291, or ebertk@dinkytown.net for more information.

All pages will be custom formatted to your site, no further integration or modification of the calculators is required. Please note, if your custom delivery uses Active Server Pages (ASP), Java Server Pages (JSP) or Cold Fusion (CFM) the respective ASP, JSP or CFM pages will be in place of your HTML documents for all calculator main pages. Report templates will remain in HTML documents (these documents are not called by your server, but instead used by the applet the main calculator page).

To access your calculators use the URL: http://www.yourdomain.com/java
(Where "your domain" is the name of your domain.) The HTML document index.html provides a simple menu for your java calculators.
