Back to PHP and Web-based Programming
by FrosT

Introduction
Well due to certain circumstances I have decided to start programming again. If you or someone you know needs a program created please contact me at frost [-at-] aeonity [-dot-] com or david [-at-] aeonity [-dot-] com or using the Contact Form. Let's go into what I can do.

Programming Background
I started programming when I was 13 (currently 21). I am a self-taught individual who loves to think outside the box when it comes to a job. I have a 2-year associate's degree in computer programming. While taking all programming classes in college I received a 4.0 in every class, really I was smarter than the teacher so I opted out to just take online classes and never had to read any of the lessons.

I can currently program PHP, Java, JavaScript, AJAX, ASP, ASP .NET, VB .NET, C#, C++ and just about any other language that gets thrown at me. PHP and JavaScript are the ones I am most fluent in.

Database Integration
Ever wanted a website where users can login and be notified of new services, discounts or pay their balance due? Well with my knowledge of database programming and the use of PHP this can be a very real solution to you. I love working with MySQL databases and creating database schemes. All my databases are created in the 3NF (3rd Normal Form) and created for highest optimization.

Creating and working with a database has to be my favorite part about a project, if you get the database just right than everything else will fall into place.

Object Oriented Programming (OOP)
Object Oriented Programming can prove to be very efficient when coding to resolve errors and easily add/remove certain features that are wanted and needed. Coding in OOP or Object Oriented Programming has been very successful for me in creating fast and efficient websites, such as Aeonity.com and various other projects that I have done over the years. My standards for when I program are to make the code so if you decide to go with someone else to modify the code after the project is said and done anyone who knows OOP can easily step in and do whatever they need to do without having to shift through messy code.

PHP Programming
PHP Programming is definitely my favorite language to program in. With enough power and an open help directory at PHP.net it’s the most logical choice for programming on the web. I have created many different with PHP including web-fetching movie listings, blog websites, content management system, articles, and many others. Soon I will have an example of the movie listings web-fetched I created as it will be open source in a couple of days. Check back for a link on how to download that code, I guarantee it is worth a look.

JavaScript Programming
JavaScript programming ties right into AJAX. I love playing with AJAX as that idea came to me years ago and I could never figure out how to make a call back to the server without refreshing the page. AJAX has provided me with the functionality I have been wanting for a long time. Aeonity is currently using AJAX for certain parts of the website, such as the chatbox and online users. I am hoping to expand the AJAX functionality further for Latest Entries, Newest Users and hopefully in the aspect of creating a blog with automatically saving drafts in intervals for those little mis-haps that can happen.

AJAX is paving the path for the future of web based programming and is setting a high standard. Google.com has implemented AJAX and made its name popular to many with its GMail and Google Maps technology. For truly dynamic content and less page reloads for the end user AJAX is the key.

Ending Notes
If anyone is interested I will bill on a project to project basis. Contact me through email or the contact form and I will talk with you and get a feel for what needs to be done and quote you my price for creating that project. I always get half down up front and than the other half after the project has finished.

Come on; let's spruce up your website with database integration for your end-users. I guarantee that will love that functionality on your website.
