Over time, I have encountered the same problem(s), and varying results. But...
Now my web designer & I have reverted to WHAT'S IN THE TABLE ROW is H::T related. Sample, which I am working on right now = http://ipnhosting.com/master/catalog/catalog_template.html
An exception, A tag outside the work area. In most cases, I just assume I have to check and/or fix it afterwards.
To date, I have been successful in training a Web Content Consultant and one Client - Content Developer, to work within some confines of these reasonable rules. Right now, I am training my understudy in Perl + HTML, and he quickly grasped it all. ( a real bonus for me).
Closing comment: You'll never win the battle, we just have to learn to live w/it.

Hi there, I've been using H::T for some time now, and I've conviced the team here that H::T is a better tool for our needs than other modules in a similar genre.Here, as at many places, we split the coding and the HTML design between programmers and web-designers. We've hit upon a small problem though. Although the syntax for H::T is simple, and we're not asking the web-designers to add any H::T tags (yet). We'd just like them to not trash the tags we insert into the html and pass back to them. I'm not asking for a technical solution for this. There isn't one for stupidity/laziness as far as I know. What I was wondering was if there are any guides in existence along the lines of "H::T for web designers". An intro, example of some simple tag usage (so they can spot thos hard-to-find H::T tags :-) - you get the idea. I know there's not a hell of a lot to it, but I'm just wondering if there are other points I might want to cover in the document I'm going to be writing later this week. Is H::T syntax too close to HTML tags for someone to understand? Should we be using tags in a different format, and then using a filter? I don't know - I'm just fishing for ideas and comments to give me something to think about before I knuckle down to write something for our web team. Regards, Chisel
