Client-Side Error Handling

In order to reduce the load on the server and prevent against rudimentary malicious attacks I took advantage of both HTML5 form elements and spent some time writing a few Javascript validators.

WhoWhere

WhoWhere is a Local Search tool using the Yellow Pages API, the Yii2 Framework and Leaflet.js. Search results can be viewed in list format or on the full page map.
