Web: DELL Store Locator and CMS

Dell Content Management System

These are two applications I developed for Dell while working at Young & Rubicam for a two week project.

The first application is a global customer centre locator for Dell, allowing users to browse Dell's offices around the world, retrieve information and make appointments with contacts. The second application is a content management system which allows the administrator to modify the cities and contact information within the map.

In the content management system, cities can be added by clicking on "ADD CITY", and the location can be modified by dragging the blue dot around the map. The city name, country and contact information can be edited in the form on the left hand side. Clicking on "SAVE" saves all of the information (via ASP & XML), and each city is also added to it's proper location in the "SHOW LIST" view.
