At codeHorse, we are committed to establishing and maintaining long-term productive and profitable relationships with our partners and clients. We extend our sincerest thanks to all the excellent companies listed and linked here for the opportunity to work on these fine software projects.
When the town of Branford offered to host the new wwml website designed by Fredi
B. Design, codeHorse worked with the town to add the site to their server and install the necessary software.
Willoughby Wallace liked the idea of being able to keep a separate calander for their
art exhibitions in addition to maintaining general calendars for other
library events.
codeHorse also helped set up a wonderful archive of Stony Creek historical photos and postcards. A spreadsheet was created
to keep track of all the items in the archive, and codeHorse programmed a script to convert it all into static html pages which will be indexed and therefore searchable via normal search engines.
This is a database in a simple, pure and useful format.

Danbury liked the idea of using Firefox to maintain a dynamic events
page, and was delighted when codeHorse enabled them to add pictures to the events.

Westport Public Library was introduced to codeHorse by their website designer,
Fredi B. Design. codeHorse helped them convert an index-card cabinet full of obituary listings into
a fully searchable web-based interface for a mysql database.
Creative Engineering's ftp site
was working perfectly, but every time they added a new client, the client would often need to call
and be walked through the connection process. There was nothing unusual about the settings, it worked
exactly like all ftp sites, but some of the people that needed to use it were not familiar with ftp. Creative
Engineering wanted a browser-based file upload solution that was easier for its clients.
After reviewing the needs, and exploring different options, codeHorse recommended
the simplest (and cheapest) possible solution: make use of the fact that the latest version of internet
explorer has ftp built in, frames can be used to add ftp directly to the web site. A simple login page
to get the ftp information, and one more codeHorse
project was online and under budget.
With this successful mini-project accomplished in a day, it is no wonder Creative Engineering is having
codeHorse help revitialize their backup procedures and get their linux backup server talking to their Windows 2003
server again.

Online T-Shirt Store, 2005
When an
group of artists from Society Feeds the Hydra
wanted to sell T-Shirts online, codeHorse helped them set up a Yahoo
store. Inexpensive, secure, easy, trustworthy, no headaches: it is hard
to beat the value of a Yahoo store.

Pivot Table Accounting, 2005
codeHorse advised Americas
Capital Advisors on a method of organizing construction expenses into
excel spreadsheets so that the resulting data can be displayed in pivot
tables. The result is an efficient method for tracking accounting income
and expense details by project, subproject, material, and category.
Microsoft Excel
Donor Database, 2005
codeHorse helped Princeton
Public Library reorganize and add to their Microsoft Access donor
database.
codeHorse's online surveys for Butterick
Home Catelog and Vogue
Patterns Magazine, both published by The
Mccall Pattern Company, generated more response than anticipated. The
mailed-in versions were entered by secretaries via the same form that
the online participants used so that the results could be compiled together
in the same database. Users completed all the questions and entered long
descriptive and valuable suggestions in the comments field. The backend
administrative pages developed by codeHorse compiled and summarized the
results in presentable fashion.
Manoverboard asked codeHorse
to program the back end for a website which showcases low cost housing
units being developed in Florida. Administrative pages allow the uploading
and rescaling of images as well as updates of the community details which
are stored in an sql database. The settings and programming gives the dynamically
generated pages static-looking urls which makes them search engine
and bookmark friendly.
Bergamo Fabrics needed a database to manage quotes on custom fabric
production for their contract division. They wanted to be able to access
everything securely via the internet from anywhere the world, and they
wanted it simple and done quickly. At their request, codeHorse implemented
the database in Intuit's Quickbase,
a web-based relational framework. Quickbase is one of the most impressive
web-based applications in existence, and combined with codeHorse's database
skills, the result was a truely amazing yet economical system. Quickbase's
powerful built-in features make everything from data entry to reporting
as pleasurable as it can be for appropriate applications.
Princeton's beautiful new website was designed by Fredi
B. Design, codeHorse's partner for full service library website design,
integration, and innovation. codeHorse provided the unix administration
and managed the technical details for a smooth transition to a new server
and multiple new sites. codeHorse's contributions included:
Princeton Public Library uses codeHorse's catelist™ system to highlight
their new
offerings every month.
Princeton's patrons can see the events happening at the library by going
to the dynamic events
page. The staff maintains multiple calendars of programs for adults,
teens, and
children
using standard tools such as Apple's ical or Mozilla's Calendar program.
The events are "published" on the library's web server which then redisplays
them for the patrons adjusting the starting date. Patrons who have these
calendar programs can even subscribe
to the events!
A secure online form allows patrons to apply
for a library card over a secure connection. This is the right way
to do it.
codeHorse also developed a multiuser intranet blog for staff to keep
up-to-date a share links and information among the staff by department.
Everyone sees the same blog entries, but the sidebars and links can be
customized per department. This creates a customizable portal which gives
a one-screen starting point for a staff intranet. The blog allows access
to entries both by date and by hierarchical topic. A blog entry can be
created by sending an email message to the blog's email address.
codeHorse setup online web pages for reviewing Analog web stats for the
Princeton sites.
