North Georgia Web Design

Over the past month, I’ve been busier with web sites than I ever thought possible.  I’ve finished my real estate CMS which is a big relief.  The CMS itself works well, and is PHP based.  I used the Prototype framework for it, and I’m happy I did.  They (the Prototype) folks did a really nice job of encapsulating the   XMLHttpRequest object and providing a lot of other nice shortcuts and methods as well.  I’ll be using this new CMS for a Bent Tree real estate site located in North Georgia.  I already have the next upgrade of the real estate CMS in mind:

  1. Polish the user interface.
  2. Improved file upload function.
  3. Incorporate TinyMCE into the project.

The other main project I have in mind is to actually create a website for my North Georgia Web Design company.  This is good case of the cobbler’s kids going with no shoes.  I just need to commit the time and do it.  Another idea I have been tossing around is creating an online database of common mistakes developers make.  I know I can contribute a ton.  For example, I as telling a friend last night I forgot again to set the margin and padding style for a <ul> to 0 when I was attempting to create a nav bar with an unordered list.  I sat there for several minutes trying to figure out why i had space above the <ul> in Firefox.  Duh.  :)
