Join Jon Whitener as he walks through some of the ways he used Cascade Server in conjunction with Flash, JavaScript, and PHP during a "Meet Our Faculty" Web Project at the University of Detroit Mercy. Topics will include:
- Setting up Asset Factories so that partners in another state could input content
- Use of index blocks and stylesheets to sift through all the profiles and select them for display in different ways, including random sub-sets and JS-animated cycling
- Use of PHP through Cascade and transformation of index block XML into a PHP data source
- Use of structured data definitions
- Inclusion of Flash video in Cascade-published pages
