Services
We offer our clients maximum return on their investment by working with open, standards-based web technologies that result in fast, functional web solutions. And as contemporary websites and web applications often require a mix of client-side and server-side technologies to provide a good user experience, we cover both bases as follows.
Client-side
XHTML
Web pages are coded using standards-based markup with an emphasis on separating structure from presentation. In addition, we meet minimum accessibility compliance. It is our practice to use the W3C's online markup validator to ensure good code.
CSS
Visual style is rendered using external style sheets following current best practices. Visual consistency across modern browsers is the goal with graceful degradtion for older, non-standards compliant browsers.
JavaScript
Where appropriate, client-side dynamic behaviour is handled using JavaScript. Examples of dynamic behaviour include validation of form fields, collapsable and expandable menus, and drag-and-drop manipulation.
Server-side
PHP
Server-side web applications and components is handled using this open source scripting language. Examples include content management systems, shopping carts, search forms, data filtering systems, manipulation of files and directories, and database connectivity.
MySQL
We use MySQL, the open source database management system, for data storage, database design, simple database administration like backups and restores, and creation of accounts and user privilages.
