You wrote -------------------------------------------------------------- It seems to me that if an employer is hiring a developer to work on a site that's already built, there will most likely be a framework of one sort or another already existing. Or if not a formal framework, then a set of conventions as to placement of different kinds of code, naming conventions.... -------------------------------------------------------------
I'm a big framework fan but I had to laugh at this. We work with other people's code about 40 to 60 percent of the time and mostly with large corporations. Sadly, this is simply not the case. A documented set of conventions and strict adherance (i.e. framework, coding standard, etc) always seems to be superceded by Larry the Cable Guy's "git er done" approach. That's one of the things that keeps people paying our high rate - someone has to slog through the messy code and find the problems and fix them. -Mark ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:240532 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
