Freelance Web Developer, Cold Fusion, PHP, SQL

Web Design and Development Custom Programming Development ColdFusion Programming

I've been programming ColdFusion websites since 1998, well before it was bought from Allaire by Macromedia.
ColdFusion is a server scripting language used to create rich dynamic web pages. It has connectivity to enterprise level data and powerful built-in search and charting capabilities. ColdFusion enables web developers such as myself to build and deploy dynamic web sites, content publishing systems, self-service applications, e-commerce sites and more.
ColdFusion is server side technology meaning it's processed by the web server. ColdFusion allows me to build and deploy powerful web services in less time and fewer lines of code than ASP, PHP or JSP.


PHP Programming

PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.
PHP is mainly focused on server-side scripting, so you can do anything any other CGI program can do, such as collect form data, generate dynamic page content, or send and receive cookies. But PHP can do much more.
Since php is a free product, there are thousands of programmers for it. What sets me apart is leveraging intelligent programming methods acquired from over ten years experience in 6 other programming languages.


Credit Card Processing

Accept credit card payments from your customers. It is the most popular and convenient payment method over the Internet and ignoring it means losing many potential customers. Most payment gateways have a sophisticated fraud protection mechanism. The process is fully automated so you can save vast amount of time over using a virtual terminal. I can get your site accepting credit card payments in many currencies and in real-time.


Real Time Shipping Calculation

It is convenient for consumers of the ecommerce store to be aware of shipping fees on the stage of adding products to shopping cart. Generally, shipping cost depends on customer's location, distance and characteristics of the package. I can combine real time shipping calculations with your manually defined shipping rules, markups, etc.


Javascript Programming & DHTML

JavaScript is a script language - a system of programming codes, created by Netscape, that can be embedded into the HTML of a web page to add functionality. In general, script languages such as JavaScript are faster to code than more structured languages such as Java and C++.
There are many javascript websites with seemingly 'drag-n-drop' scripts. Seldom do they work without modification. And they're usually very bloated, causing them to load and behave slowly.
With me you'll get a custom client-side program that is lean and efficient, something that's very important since you'll never know the power of you viewer's machine.


XML

The Extensible Markup Language ("XML") allows us to create special-purpose markup languages, capable of describing many different kinds of data. Its primary purpose is to facilitate the sharing of data across different systems, particularly systems connected via the Internet.
Using XML I can create for you pages that display real time data from various other sources, i.e. broadcast messages (RSS/news feeds) and generic shipping rates.


SOAP

SOAP is a protocol for exchanging XML-based messages over a computer network, normally using HTTP. One network node (the client) sends a request message to another node (the server), and the server immediately sends a response message to the client.
With SOAP, I can build pages that display pages based on user input, including specific weather for a region or shipping rates based on to/from addresses. SOAP commonly uses XML, but in an interactive or user specific way.


AJAX

Asynchronous JavaScript and XML ("AJAX"), is a web development technique for creating interactive web applications. The intent is to make web pages feel more responsive by exchanging small amounts of data with the server behind the scenes, so that the entire web page does not have to be reloaded each time the user makes a change. This is meant to increase the web page's interactivity, speed, and usability.
Ajax allows me to perform the same operation as SOAP, above, except without having to reload the web page. Two widely known examples are Google Maps and gMail. When done very well, an Ajax application will seem to work more like Flash or a desktop application.
