Heh. Documentation kind of varies. But generally, we provide the following:

1. Functional specification (we never show a design spec to our clients, if
we can avoid it)
2. User's manual, if there is a content-management back end or other
administrative functionality
3. Suggested 'moving forward' plans for site expansions, extensions and
changes in the coming year

Hope this helps,

I'm interested in knowing what kind of documentation everyone provides their
clients as well since I'm delivering my first product on Monday morning.
Since no one has replied to this post, I'm wondering if anyone PROVIDES
documentation??
