Links to some of my professional work

Xpanxion
Careers page for xpanxion. Clicking on any of the "+ View details" links should bring about a modal that contains an acknowledgment form for a prospective applicant to fill out before being redirected to a page containing the application for the job associated with the specific "+ View details" link you had clicked on. I used jQuery extensively on this page in order to accomplish two main objectives: finding the "+ View details" links and iterating through them and for the modal. Originally, clicking on the "+ View details" links simply redirected the user to a job application but the client needed each prospective client to fill out an "acknowledgment form" before applying for their jobs. Therefore, I needed to use jQuery to select the specific link that was clicked on, save the url it was being redirected to, and then forcing a modal which I built using a jQuery plugin called "jquery-confirm" and then only redirecting the prospective applicant to the job applicant for the job they are wanting to apply for upon successful completion of the acknowledgment form.
PDCM
An order form that allows a user to draw their signature on an HTML canvas. Particularly useful on mobile devices. Signature drawing functionality created using "signature_pad".
ISSB Bank
This page contains a form for upgrading your existing checking account. I made extensive use of JavaScript and jQuery for this form, mostly for the purposes of hiding and unhiding certain elements based on particular criteria/selections. Some examples of this are: Displaying an iframe when an account type is selected for the "Desired New Account Type" drowpdown field. Also, there is a different document that populates the iframe based on the account type that is selected. Clicking the "Add Another Account" button unhides the "Another Account" fieldset and changes the button text to "Remove Another Account". Clicking "Remove Another Account" hides the fieldset and changes the button text back to "Add Another Account".
