Ticker Interface Connection Content Management System
About this Project
Client: PC Connection
Media: Web
Details
PC Connection’s site administrators were looking for an easier method for creating, updating, and deleting posts that are displayed using a scrolling ticker. At the time, the user would have to open a text file on the computer where the ticker was running to make edits. Now they can log into TIC from any location and create, manage and delete posts.
In short, TIC stores all of the posts in a Microsoft Access database, and then creates an individual RSS feed for each site location. The RSS feed is then parsed at each location.
I built TIC using .NET and the jQuery Javascript library, as well as Microsoft Access, XHTML and CSS.
