RETURN TO PORTFOLIO
 
The Somerset County Democratic Committee wanted their website to be more interactive. In this new design, visitors can sign up for the group's mailing list or volunteer their time. They can make contributions and purchase tickets for SCDC events on-line via ClickandPledge.com. To reduce spam, the mailing forms use Recaptcha which presents a pair of words that visitors must type in.

The website also includes:

The three-column layout is accomplished using Cascading Style Sheets instead of tables. The header features a photo of the Somerset County Courthouse, and the shades of blue were chosen to compliment the color of the sky.

The "News" link includes the date that the page was last updated. I used PHP code to display a flashing red ball next to the link if the page was updated within the past 30 days.

The website has been set up with a Content Management System so that members of the committee can quickly update events, officers, and other news.
