Description
Lottery Central was developed in-house by Resolva. Building on the success of previous versions Lottery Central, we have totally re-written all of the code used to run the site, allowing us to take advantage of the latest programming developments and ensure that your experience is as fulfilling as possible. Throughout the production of Lottery Central we were focussed on two key principles: the site must be easy to use and services which we provide must be helpful to our users.

If you have been visiting Lottery Central for a long time you'll have no doubt been with us through a number of different site designs. Lottery Central started in 1994 with the launch of the UK National Lottery, at that time Colin Riddle had simply dedicated one page on his personal site to publish the lottery results, as time went by more pages were added and the lottery section of his site became more popular than the rest of his site. It was then when Lottery Central was made into a site in its own right. Colin, a student at the time, subscribed to an American hosting company, Simplenet (now acquired by Yahoo!), in order to keeps costs low. The site continued to grow in popularity and Colin was finding it more and more work to keep the site updated. Up to then all pages on the site were manually edited and uploaded to the web server, with this no longer a practical method of maintaining the site Colin developed a number of batch scripts which automated the generation of the html pages and the uploading to the server. Now after each draw all he had to do was enter the results and everything would be done automatically.
