Services Offered - php / MySQL DevelopmentIn the realm of the internet, relational databases like MySQL
can be powerful tools.
When paired with a procedural software language like php, databases can
be used to serve content, update and store information collected through
a webpage, or a combination of both to create a robust application. Data Collection A database coupled with php can also be used to store data collected provided
by visitors to your website. A simple example would be the contact page
for the Chippy the Clown website.
After performing basic validation, the information is sent to the client via email
and stored in a database.
This information can then be used with several password protected webpages for
promotion tracking and performance scheduling purposes.
Logic can be added to make the action taken dependent on the data collected.
Thus, email notification may be send to different individuals, or the visitor...
or other specific processes may take place, based on the visitor’s input.

Let us know what we can do for you! Database Served Content Database served content can really stretch your development dollar.
It separates the nuts and bolts of the web site from the content.
A single web page can be displayed as a template and used to display many
different pages of content to the visitor. Frequently, this technique is used to display a company’s products in
hierarchal format with distinct functionality for categories, products,
and the product details.
Each may have their own page, or module within a page. Take the Monarch Door Company
web site.
The site appears to have five separate pages (categories) of product offerings,
with category having a variable number of products.
In reality, it is a single page with one module to handle category level
information and another to handle the individual products.
 Both the content and formatiing instructions are retrieved from the database.
This flexibility allows the web site to be easily modified to keep pace with their business. A more familiar application may be an artist's gallery, such as see at the
A.T.Williams Art site, or the
Visionary Fusion Glass Works site.
In both cases, the gallery is a single page designed to display all of their works.
Images and wording can be easily added or modified.
Clients who require frequent changes may wish to add an interface that allows them to
manange the information that appears on their site.
