Scientific Fields
The main page for the Scientist Fields category has a table that provides an overview of the three scientistic fields which our website focuses on. Basic descriptions and interesting components are highlighted in this table so as to act as a quick reference on each subject. The six categories include description, history/origin, subfields, impacts/applications, recent discoveries, and prominent scientists. Each scientific field has a link on its name which navigates the user to the page for that specific scientific field. Wherever it is relevant to the individual field, this table also includes links to other sections of the webpage that highlight those topics.
By clicking on the column names of the table, the user can sort the table in ascending and descending alphanumeric order based on the content within that column. This provides the user with ease of finding certain topics. This functionality is implemented using a JavaScript
The table is paginated using a J-Query script which defines the displaying of three instances per page.
The individual page for each scientific field has a detailed account of the categories which were introduced in the main page. This includes an account of the history of the field, major discoveries and who made them. Within the account, links occur to the individual pages of the scientist who worked in the field and to the major discoveries made.
