Web Services for Web Services
Plaster Student Union 315
We will discuss and show the various Web services that Xavier University has created to increase productivity and reduce the stress within the Web office. Some tools include:
• A smart 404-error page that uses a single XML file to redirect the user and an anonymous 'report this broken link' button. The broken link reports are processed using a tool that allows the Web services team to manage broken link reports, and returns quantifiable statistics.
• A Web standards and style guide for Xavier University’s content management system. CSS styles for font sizes, colors, tables, and feature boxes are defined on a demo page for campus web updaters to reference.
• Web services request form for handling incoming Web design/development requests.
