The It’s your choice! site has been completely overhauled, with extensive backend and front end changes. The aim of the site from a design and development point of view is to enable a simple pathway to getting or giving information.

I’ve achieved this by having a punchy graphical homepage with the importance of each section being denoted by its positioning and colouration. The rest of the site has a simple and elegant format, whose primary aim is to enable the delivery of information.

The “sharing information” area and “directory” both use a custom php / mysql CMS systems. The “sharing information” area enables an administrator to create and edit questionnaires, and gives a great degree of freedom in their structure. There is also a facility for testing questionnionaires without making them live. The information from the questionnaires is automatically outputted graphically in the get information area as bar graphs and pie charts. The graphs are produced using the live database and jpgraph to produce png graph images. The give information area uses a session based log in system to store each users information and keep it secure.
