TimeTable is unlike any other project I had taken on. TimeTable is an application, not just a website. The user interface behaves exactly as you would expect from a desktop application though.

There is always a tradeoff between functionality and ease of use. For the client they have a very simple interface to add and manage the inventory. For the user the are able to navigate the site with ease. This case was almost an exception to the rule, where the functionality and ease of use are both ranked very high.

I set out on a mission for this site. I wanted to make something for my client that I would want to use. I was blessed with a representative that was just as tech savvy as myself. This means I could provide a more complex interface in certain areas but still provide the ease of use that I would want. This allowed the user all types of flexibility without having to have the knowhow of creating a website. I am very proud of my finished product.

This was the first website which I used a template file. This would make it easy for me to change the template of the website if we ever chose to. Figuring out the basics of that wasn't too straight forward. Remember: I was just starting out with commercial development at this point!

There is a great deal of content provided on Lazy Oaks Farm; however, not enough to justify sub categorizing some links. The dual line navigation has never set well with me before in the past, but I think it works very well in this situation.

When creating a large website the key is easy navigation. StarTrek4u covers a vast variety of content, including information which is categorized, then subcategorized, along with multimedia with the same categorization. This creates a great deal of complexities. I believe I have solved the problem of difficult navigation my making the website accessible and providing several different means of navigation.
