The brief

DAA's website was unattractive, had limited functionality and was difficult to keep updated. Interaxsys was asked to build a new 'brochure' site from visualisations that had been produced by a third party. The reasons for Interaxsys being asked to complete the build were for two reasons. Firstly - so that it would integrate fully with a new business application that is due to be developed by Interaxsys and secondly - Interaxsys was able to offer full control over the website's content to DAA, to enable the content to be managed effectively.

DAA's previous website

New site, well structured and driven by CSS, PHP and XML.

The Technology

The site is fully under the control of CSS and XML. The transition from content files (XML) to screen representation is fully automatic using PHP and XSLT stylesheets. In this way the client can modify existing content, add new pages or remove pages under their full control.

Data Updates

Further developments are due to come on-line in 2007 which will give a database driven 'News' engine, automatic PDF brochure generation and a Content Management System for maintaining the content in an efficient controlled manner using a GUI based application.

The Benefits

The client has a web site which is dynamic, easy to use and informative to the site visitor. Importantly it provides the client with flexibility on updating and will integrate seamlessly into the look and feel of subsequent developments.

Status
