Frequently Asked Questions
- Q1: What is a web based application?
-
A good
example would be an online shopping cart. It is
highly interactive and very dynamic. It is
programmed to run within a website. It has a
password protected administrative backend where
products can be added, edited & deleted. The front
end of the application is what visitors use to
search for products, add them to the shopping cart
and finally checkout. There are hundreds of web
based applications written to perform very specific
tasks.
-
- Q2: What are the advantages of incorporating
a web based application?
-
Save on
maintenance costs! Since you have control over
adding, changing and deleting the application's
content, you don't have to pay your web designer
to make these changes. For example, you can add
upcoming events to your Calendar of Events or
add new pictures to your Photo Gallery. The
changes you make will show up immediately on
your website.
-
- Q3: How is a web based application
different from web design?
-
Web
design requires an upfront investment in
specialized software as well as training in
web design principles. In contrast, a web
based application runs right from your
browser and allows you to manage a specific
portion of your website. They are simple to
use and require no special software.

Reservation Calendar |

Problem
As the Springlakes Clubhouse
Manager, Melanie is responsible for coordinating all clubhouse
reservations. With over 650 homes in Springlakes, she
was spending a good portion of her time responding to inquiries
regarding clubhouse availability.
Solution
An online calendar was
incorporated into the Springlakes.org website. Melanie
updates the calendar as reservations are confirmed so that
residents can quickly see which dates are still available.
