Mail Magicians
This class project using Java is a mail service center business application. It allows an employee to enter item data (size dimensions, if heavy, liquid, or fragile), and select a shipper. When the "Box Size and Cost" button is clicked, the program determines the correct box size required for packing (program currently uses a 12x24x36 static size box for shipping), and calculates total shipping costs (including peanuts). When the customer is happy with the pricing information, the employee then clicks the "Pack Box, Print Label" button, which allows the item to be packed (data hypothetically is stored), a shipping label is printed (hypothetically), iterates a tracking number, and clears the input boxes for the next shipment.

Mortgage Analyzer
This is a simple mortgage calculator using client-side Javascript. Simply type in your loan requirements in the top section, then click on the compute button. A new page will display a complete amortization schedule. NOTE: Best used with Netscape browser. Computation is much more efficient (2-3 seconds). Using IE takes an excrutiatingly long time to compute, so be very patient if using IE (count up to 30 or 40 "one-thousands" if your loan amount or number of years are high). Go figure -- maybe has something to do with JavaScript performing better with NN than with IE?

"Between The Lines" Employee Database Maintenance Site
"Between The Lines" Customer Site
Teammate Steve Fretzen assisted in developing this e-commerce "Amazon.com take-off" called the "Between the Lines" bookstore. It features .asp pages (currently non-functional), using Access as the database tool, Javascript on the client, VBScript server-side, and frames. Two applications drive this project:
- The "Employee Database Maintenance Site" prompts employees to sign into this password-protected database, then allows them to perform a number of maintenance tasks (additions, changes, deletions) to the book/title database.
- The "Customer Site" allows a retail customer to start a new (or access an existing) customer account, giving them buying priveledges. They may then perform selected searches for books in the database, and add their selections to a shopping cart. (This project currently is non-functional due to the lack of server .asp support at this time)

Willowell Native Nursery
This project was a contribution to a Portland native plant co-op. (Still pretty rough around the edges)
