Button Systems developed a web site for the town of Castleton, Vermont. This comprehensive site contains a variety of information about the town including news and events, local businesses, history, photos, and more. It is intended to give web browsers from all over the world a glimpse of what Castleton has to offer. Thousands of people have visited the web site over the past few years. In essence, the web site is a web-based brochure about Castleton.

The site contains other important features such as school information, information about surrounding communities, and is a part of the national Amber Alert network. The web site combines an attractive graphic theme with an easy-to-use navigational structure. The site is informative and aesthetically pleasing. This site has been honored by HometownUSA, receiving its Silver Community award for excellence. This site can be visited at http://www.castletonvt.com.

Button Systems also maintains web sites for many of the area artisans. The Farrow Gallery is one of these sites. The site provides a tour into the works of Patrick Farrow and his art. The site itself is simple in design, intended to let the artwork stand out and speak for itself.

Navigation is performed in a series of recurrent hyperlinks, allowing a viewer to view pages within the site without the need for using the buttons within their web browser. Each piece of artwork is displayed in a series of clickable thumbnails. As each thumbnail is clicked, the full-size image and detailed information about the given piece is shown. This layout is similar to those used by on-line catalogs. This site can be visited at http://www.farrowgallery.com.

Another of the real estate web sites that Button Systems designed and maintains is for Gilbert Realty and Development. This site contains detailed photos and information about the properties listed for sale. It also includes the actual fact sheets used by MLS and other realtor services in PDF document format (requires Adobe Acrobat to be installed of the viewer’s computer).

The site uses a frame structure, with a menu constantly available that makes navigation simple. The site uses the same color scheme as their other marketing pieces. This site can be visited at http://www.gilbertrealtyanddevelopmentvt.com.

Button Systems recently developed a web-based parts order entry system for Kalow Technologies. This web site allows a Sealed Air Corporation sales rep to order replacement parts for a machine from anywhere in North America. It also contains schematic drawings for the machines in which parts can be ordered for. This site is login-based with a user name and password required upon entry.

The parts that are ordered on the web site are periodically downloaded and processed by Kalow personnel into a companion back-office system (not web-based) that we developed. From there, order status information is processed and uploaded back to the web site. This allows the sales rep to track the part that they ordered. Furthermore, the rep can track any part shipped with UPS using an automated interface into UPS’ own tracking web site. The rep may also look at other orders depending on their access level.

The web site is divided into two classifications of processing – user level and administrator level. User-level represents the sales reps and other users who would order parts, view schematics, or run inquiries about their orders. Administrators have additional options that are used to maintain the usage and functionality of the web site such as user maintenance, site statistics reporting, and more.

One of the more interesting web sites that Button Systems has developed is for the Lake Bomoseen Association. This site combines the standard HTML technology used for web site design with some complex Java scripting to provide a comprehensive menu-driven navigational structure.

The site contains a wide variety of information about Lake Bomoseen and the Association’s members. The majority of viewers of this site are members of the LBA. Because of the variety and different degrees of information available, frames are used only when necessary. The site uses a color scheme that is meant to be pleasing but not detracting from the information conveyed. This site can be visited at http://www.lakebomoseenassociation.org.

MDF Systems of Bristol, Connecticut came to Button System to develop an on-line registration system to be used in coordination with Wiremold, one of their customers. This system allows a user to enter information about a particular type of registration card.

Entering the data is done in two ways. The first way requires a user to log into the site to enter in registration cards. Another method allows a Wiremold user to log in to the system directly using parameterized information within a hyperlink. This information is validated and added to the login system as necessary, eliminating the login steps that non Wiremold users go through.

The web site is divided into two classifications of processing – user level and administrator level. User-level represents users who would enter the registration cards. Administrators have additional options that are used to maintain the usage and functionality of the web site such as user maintenance, card type and business type maintenance, and more.

The Vermont Health Record is the most complex web site ever developed by Button Systems. The Vermont Program for Quality in Health Care asked Button Systems to develop a new web site to allow physicians and other health care professionals to maintain a registry of patients with diabetes or cardiovascular diseases. This web site combines HTML, ASP, and JavaScript technology.

The site contains comprehensive, yet easy-to-use, data entry forms that store information about a patient and their subsequent visit information or lab tests performed. Navigation within the site is done using a main menu with various navigation buttons, as well as buttons found on the bottom of many of the data entry forms. The site uses a simple color scheme as well.

The data stored within this site serves as the basis for over 80 different real-time reports that are available. As data is entered and saved in the system, it is available in many of these reports. The remainder of these reports uses data that is updated periodically as needed. Some of these reports incorporate line graphs, a feature not readily available in standard web sites. Some also incorporate programming that generates results in an Excel spreadsheet. The web site also contains a discussion forum. This allows users and administrators to communicate with each other about the usage and functionality of the site, as well as ways to improve it.

The web site is divided into two classifications of processing – user level and administrator level. User-level represents the physicians and healthcare personnel who would enter patient, visit, and lab information or run the various reports available. Administrators have additional options that are used to maintain the usage and functionality of the web site such as user maintenance, database maintenance, and more.

Finally, the web site also offers additional tools and documents to the general public without the need to log in. This site can be viewed at https://www.vermonthealthrecord.com.

The Vermont Program for Quality in Health Care asked Button Systems to develop a new site for peer review. This site contains a series of Word or PDF documents that provide a user with detailed information about agreements and other tools regarding peer review.

In addition, the site incorporates a reviewer search by specialty. This allows the user to view a list of peers within a given specialty. This listing contains the name and location of any reviewing physician matching the specialty selected. This web site can be viewed at https://www.vpqpeerreview.org.
