Requirements
Spanning its network across the globe, the History Channel Network stepped in India, with the launch of the History Channel for India. The Channel is purely dedicated to exploring the historical past and presenting it to Indian viewers. As part of the channel’s promotion strategy, its online presence was imperative and a strong online presence was required for extensive coverage of TV program schedules, along with features to add value to the basic channel subscription.

The History Channel Network has its Websites for various regions and DevelopmentIndia was required to design the Website in-sync with the global templates followed by other regional Websites.

Customized Online Presence In-Sync with Global Standards

The History Channel Website has been customized for the Indian realm. After studying the global template design for History Channel Websites, the DevelopmentIndia team developed the Website with high-end graphics, flash animations, online games, along with regular maintenance of TV program schedules. We coordinated with the other teams involved in maintaining the History Channel Websites for different regions.

The site uses SQL Server 2000 as the backend for scalable database management. The front-end has been developed in ASP 3.0 along with SSI pages and extensive use of JavaScript. Interactive features are developed using a combination of JavaScript and ActionScript (Flash).
