Portfolio
Below is a listing of my recent design and development work.
Mobile Armor
My most recent project was mobilearmor.com. Development is primarily in PHP, in a Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP environment, along with HTML & JavaScript. The site integrates with multiple internal and external tools (i.e. Salesforce, Sharepoint), and involves object-oriented PHP. Portions of the site are maintained via a custom CMS-style backend. The backend authenticates against Active Directory.
Design Development
These are sites that were developed by a separate designer, that I coded. Sites are actively maintained by clients and a separate department, but all validated when originally delivered. Also, some links go to development copies of site.
Sites are optimized for download, as well as search-engine readability.
Web Development
Many of the DHTML elements in the sites above were developed by me, while others had to be adjusted/updated for validation purposes. Additionally, I developed the perl based form processing script, that includes a HTML-based email delivery with embedded images. Below is a listing of notable development projects:
- Javascript based custom scroll-bar: this allows designers to have complete control over the look of the scrollbar within a page, and includes scroll-wheel support. This was developed without viewing competitors' code (pay versions that do the same thing).
- Javascript based fades: Various fly-out menus, as well as other elements exhibit fading characteristics were developed.
- Large galleries automatically generated: I developed custom php scripts to scan select directories and automatically build gallery structure
- Time Tracker: Javascript based time-tracking system developed to track project development times: Timetracker. For security purposes, all times are stored in cookies.
- I also developed an internal php-based client feedback tracking and reporting system, as well as a client site asset submission script.
- Developed script to assist with site validation. Launched from the bookmarks toolbar, this script opens a new tab (in Firefox, window in other browsers) with each linked internal pages' validation results. Script: Validate Internal
CMS Managed sites
Sites listed below will not validate, due to the in-house content management system (Image Café). Also, some of these designs have been modified by the client via the content management system. I have attempted to document any noticeable changes. All sites listed below were initially developed before August of 2007.
