Web design and maintainance services are available ranging from single page sites through to those with several hundreds of pages, such as the Archaeological Planning Consultancy site.

Sites can be designed according to strict rules regarding accessibility legislation and schemas laid down by the world wide web consortium (W3C), or more fluidly, employing multimedia such as QuickTime, Flash or Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). We also offer database driven site design using MySQL & PHP to deliver dynamic page content and to harvest information submitted via online forms. NB: all links to external sites will open in a new window.

Recent web projects include:

• Council for British Archaeology (CBA) Community Archaeology Forum.
  An interactive section of the CBA web site has recently been launched to allow community archaeology groups to publicise their findings and engage in discussion. This employs a 'wiki' engine using PHP and MySQL to allow users to upload their own material and comment on other projects. The engine chosen for this project was WikkaWiki, an Open Source Wiki engine available from wikkawiki.org, which has been comprehensively adapted to suit the needs of the CBA.
• Mardy Zombies.
  This site for the Sheffield based band uses Flash animated graphics, PHP to collect data submitted by users, a MySQL database to store information submitted, and is linked to the PayPal site to allow direct purchase of albums on CD. Song samples are included in SWF format. Somewhat noisy, but worth a look if you've got broadband...
• Noredco.
  Web site of the Northern Education Consultancy, based in Northern Ireland, dedicated to matching newly qualified teachers from Ireland with job opportunities in England, Scotland & The Isle of Man. This site uses two MySQL online databases, one to house details of job vacancies and a second to house details submitted by teachers / students looking for a job. PHP is used to transmit the data to the various pages and to allow an online search function. The jobs database is updated weekly using phpMyAdmin to reflect changes in vacancies in various local education authorities and schools subscribing to the site.
• The Ferry Inn, Cawood.
  This site for a local public house aims to give information on the pub and its facilities in a clean, simple manner. The site uses separate style sheets for screen and print media, thereby avoiding printing navigation elements and page background textures. Random thumbnails on each page link to larger images using 'lightbox' javascript transitions.
• Angels.
  Florists web site employing HTML and PHP to allow easy updating of images on the site by the client. Images are simply uploaded to the relevant server directory, and PHP automatically delivers thumbnails and full sized images to the relevant page. The image coding was written by Ben Arblaster, who has also written a simple application to enable the client to upload images independantly and without the need for other ftp software.
• The Archaeological Planning Consultancy.
  A large site comprising thousands of individual web pages, designed to provide details of the work carried out by various organisations working for Mike Griffiths & Associates, a York based archaeological consultancy. Since its inception the site has grown dramatically, and is currently being overhauled to allow more dynamic content retrieval. Recent additions include the APC Chronicle section (screenshot to right) based on the WordPress Open Source blog engine.
• Blue Bridge Lane & Fishergate House.
  Archaeological monograph (part of the Archaeological Planning Consultancy site) publishing the results of recent archaeological work undertaken by Field Archaeology Specialists Ltd in Fishergate, York.
• On-Site Archaeology.
  Site designed to provide details of the services offered by a York based archaeological unit, and to allow a search of projects undertaken. This uses PHP and a MySQL online database to store project details and reports. Not updated for some time now.
• Find Me A Uni.
  Currently in preparation, this site is designed to help prospective students, primarily those in Ireland, to find university courses in the UK. Again, this is a database driven site using PHP and MySQL.
