Soccer Philately - The complete resource for soccer stamps

Search Engine and Database Update - May 23, 2008
This weeks update is both a database update and a programming update. The database has now been updated with a complete list of ATM labels that have been issued. To date, 4 countries have issued ATM's related to the topic of soccer: Austria, Portugal, South Africa, and the United States. Because ATM's are variable rates, an infinite number of values exist. In the database, the common values for postage at time of issue have been listed. Pay close attention to the Notes on the Stamp Page, particularly in Portugal. There are quite a few varieties for the Euro 2004 ATM labels. On the programming side, the Search Page has been modified again. First, a new check box was incorporated for the ATM labels. I also added a drop down box that enables the user to select the order of the listings. The default is by country then issue date. I also included by highest value, by issue date, and by date updated to pull up a list of the most recently updated records. If there are other sort orders desired, just let me know and I'll incorporate them. The titles, and by extension the filenames, do not indicate the sort order. I've also continued working on adding keywords to the database and hope to have something to report on that next week. No scans were uploaded to the website this week.

For the next update, I hope to continue to add new keywords to the database for the countries beginning with C. I am also working on stndardizing some of the fields in the database. That's about it for now. Enjoy the website and feel free to contact me if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions.
