Scope of works: Software development

Whilst developing a new interactive kiosk product a requirement arose for web browser functionality that included an automatic timeout to a default web site on inactivity feature, filtering web pages and allowing navigation to specific web sites only.

I could not produce this functionality with any of the existing web browser applications, even using some of the multitude of rich and varied web browser add-ons currently available, so I had to develop my own software solution.

Using Visual Basic 6 with Microsoft Internet Controls, I developed a web browser with an automatic timeout feature, web address, mySQL database integration, content filtering and comprehensive administrative logging.
