Openet

While working as the Lead Web Developer at McCann Erickson, a multi-national advertising firm, I played an instrumental role in the successful build-out and timely launch of the Openet web site. A week after I received the template designs and the technical requirements document, the site was constructed, tested and launched, just in time for a major product announcement at a trade show.

The project’s success led to additional business with Openet. As a result, I was given the Emerging Business Award and a $2000 cash bonus from our corporate head quarters in New York.

 

The web site has since changed, but my work is viewable through Google’s Way Back Machine web site. View Openet.com back in May of 2007.

The web site required the following web user interface elements:

  • two levels deep semi-transparent CSS based drop-down navigation
  • IE conditional statements and browser specific stylesheets
  • embedding Flash elements using the SWFObject
  • a print friendly version of each page
  • template construction and image cut optimization
  • global cascading style sheets
  • contact us form with validation
  • content publishing
  • web site testing in IE, Firefox, Safari, and Opera on Windows, Linux, and Mac platforms
