As a web designer it is always good to have some software in the arsinalthat makes the development process easier and faster.  Why spend time on programming when someone else has already done a great job and the software in reasonably inexpensive.  In working on a re-design for Labadie Toyota’s website they wanted more menu items on the home page.  The problem is the website is a template that is very limiting.  I have no server-side ability to put scripts or programs on the account.  So I needed something that would work from another server, can be changed whenever necessary, and easy to train someone to use that has limited or no programming abilities.

Doing a quick search on Google I found the applications available at www.flashdevelopment24.com.  This stuff looked good and was well written.  They gave me a free sample to test on the website to make sure that permissions were going to allow pieces to pull from different domains.  The sample worked!  This is very inexpensive applications that work great and made my development time for implementation less than 24 hours.

First sample after purchasing software (the offers may be expired but the links should still work).
