  Custom Development

  It is sometimes necessary to go outside the ‘standard’ features of a website and create customized forms, interfaces, and applications to provide the complete solution for your site. We take a creative approach to solving these challenges – leveraging the broad skill set of our developers … while remaining focused on your business objectives.

  Technologies Used Include	In Our Toolbox
  ActionScript AJAX ASP.net CSS HTML / XHTML JavaScript jQuery LINUX PHP SQL XML	Abobe Dreamweaver CS5 Adobe Fireworks CS5 Adobe Illustrator CS5 Adobe Photoshop CS5 Coda, XCode, and Eclipse IDEs FileZilla FTP / SFTP Firefox / Firebug Mac OS/X Snow Leopard Microsoft Windows XP, Win 7 Microsoft Visual Studio mySQL / phpMyAdmin

  Some of our recent custom development projects have included:

  • a custom project gallery with photos, pop-up modal information windows, and navigation – using the NextGen Photo Gallery as the foundation, with additional information fields.
  • a jQuery-based staff photo directory with pop-up modal windows for biographical info.
  • a large-scale custom application that retrieves every worker’s compensation claim filed in California, compares each claim against a database of client members (over 4 million), and when a match is found – creates a case record.
  • a WordPress plugin that provides geocoding and LatLng calculation and display for a custom sticker manufacturer’s site, based on address information provided by customer.
  • custom forms and form handlers that collect user-defined information, provide validation services, record to the database, and email the customer and client the form data.

  Let’s sit down and talk about the ideas you’ve had for your site and how-best to bring them to life.
