What's the difference between inTERnet and inTRAnet?


inTERnet refers to the world wide web (www) - a vast interconnection of computers that allows communication in virtually all directions and is accessible to just about anyone (although some sites require a form of membership in order to gain access).

inTRAnet refers to a private network owned by a company and allows access to only their employees and/or only those that are granted a login id and password. This is not a "membership" that you can buy into or sign up for; you are either elgible for access or not. Often a company will grant limited access of their intranet to their trading partners. Intranets allow employees within a company to exchange and share data that aids them in completing their tasks or provides company information such as employee benefits. Generally, the information found on an intranet is not of interest to the general public.

 Photography sites (PHP / CSS / JavaScript / File System):
A list of photographic events is dynamically created based on the directory structure... the event names are automatically retrieved by using the directory names. Once an event is selected by the user, all thumbnails within the specified directory are programmatically retrieved and displayed in pageable format (14-16 per page depending on the site). "Next" and "Previous" links appear as appropriate. The thumbnails are programmatically tied via hyperlinks to their corresponding larger images. File names are displayed on both the thumbnails and detail pages.
 
LK Portraits    LK Portraits
LK Portraits
Professional photography site: User may select events from a drop-down list (implemented via CSS) on the home page. From there a list of pageable thumbnail images is displayed. When the user clicks on a thumbnail, a larger image shows along with ordering information. Checkout is interfaced to PayPal yet picks up the order quantities from user-entered data on the photo site. Watermark is placed on larger photo programmatically. Designed (but not restricted to) to display photos of a uniform size. Photos are placed differently on the detail page depending on whether they are vertically or horizontally oriented. The appropriate watermark image is then laid over the photo. (Layout designed by site owner.)
