Yup - I meant per day. $500 is approx £300 = £37.5ph based on 8hr day. Which for an experienced web app developer with Java/XML/XSLT and experience of Cocoon is reasonable from an employers perspective. Having said that the best the same could hope to get at the moment in a perm role would be around 35k per annum and they would be expected to do a lead role for that. There is such a glut of coders, lack of roles and tight belts in the UK at the moment that even good guys might have to settle for less than 30k - the best could easily get twice that a couple of years ago... <snip/> jez __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
