Challenge: Design an elegant and intuitive promotional website which can be easily updated and maintained.
Solution By separating all the sites major components (header, left side navigation panel, contact tags, etc.) into individual files that are then incorporated into each page via PHP 'include' statements, updating an item that appears on several pages only needs to be done once at the source location. This allows major additions and/or changes to be made to the site very quickly and cost-effectively. This sites stylishly simple design and navigation structure makes surfing the site for the information you need very straightforward.
The North American Elevator & Escalator site features an expanding navigation panel on the left side of every page, as well as a contact form that not only requires specific information before a successful submission can transmitted, it also checks email formatting and requires that a "valid" email address be entered. Each form text field is also programmed to search for data commonly used in "email form hijacking", preventing the sending spam email messages through the form.
