Note: For the entire Web site I've personally coded about 25 different different layout references, all using the XHTML/CSS table less formatting.

Web site pages content hand coding

Forms and Surveys pages development using AJAX

Social Networking facility development whereby the 500 top managers could search for their colleagues and add them to their social network, the goal being to make people start to know each other even if they are coming from different departments or plants across the world

The Social Networking facility search function allowed users to search for other members based on certain keywords or on a countries list

The Social Networking facility allowed members to send custom or default invitations to other members to join their network, as well as an approval mechanism on the invitee side, with email notifications to both the inviter and the invitee during the procedure

This project involved programming using the following languages: XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, AJAX, PHP and MySQL.
