I a well funded company.

Designer = responsible for design, graphics, flash content
Sitebuilder = responsible for making sure design does not break html/xslt
code template design based on design
Programmer = create logic or functions and responsible for function
integration
Database Admin = responsible with the uml design of db object realted to the
programming and maintenence of database data and servers
Project Manager = responsibile for the project
Team Lead = responsible for the programmers
Architect = responsible for the design of the overall system.

Carlos,

I don't know of anyone who actually works this way in the real world.  In
fact, we hired a jr individual who had no actual programming background,
including JavaScript, but did know HTML and could really create neat
graphics using Adobe Photoshop, FlashMX, etc.  Trying to teach him how to
write JSP's  and some JavaScript, using only JSP tag libraries and HTML for
the JSP's, has been more effort than it's really worth.  Although he tries
very hard, he has no background or experience by which to be able to "debug"
his JSP's or JavaScript.  And trying to get him to understand basic logic
such as for loops, for each, do until, if then else, switch/case, etc, has
been difficult.  He is GREAT HTML and graphics artist.  But he does not have
the mindset to "visualize" how to "code" his JPS's to produce the "final"
HTML.

I think this theory of using HTML/graphic artist types to create JSP's, and
using only your higher paid developers to create the backend using
servlets/Java Beans, etc, has come from both University/professor types who
have NO real world experience, and MBA/management types than those who are
more technical (with some business background) like us.  In theory it sounds
great, and to a high level manager with no actual technical
background/experience, it's the type of organizational structure that they
would eat up hook, line, and sinker, particularly since they can hire
HTML/graphic artist types at about 1/3 of what a mid level developer costs.
After going through it here with a total of 5 people on this project, I
would never recommend this type of setup in the real world.  Especially if
your a large development shop.

Your suggestion of using JR developers to create the JSP's is more in line
with my experience in the real world.  As they gain experience and knowledge
of the product and the corporate culture, some of them will want to move
into the backend development, while others may want to specialize in
creating only custom tag libraries or deployment/upkeep of websites.  And
for the most part, they have the background and the "mindset" to visualize
what they need to do and how to accomplish that in a JSP page.

Just my two cents worth.  If anyone out there is really implementing this
"model" of using non-programmers to create JSP pages in their development
shops, I would be interested in knowing how well this has worked for you, if
you have any hard "cost savings" data that you can share, and whether you
would continue to use this model on future development projects.

Uhhhm.
Really anybody works this way?

In any Enterprise, the web designers are the responsible of create the jsp�s
with tools such dreamweaver? I hear a lot such situation but i don�t know
anybody that work this way.

I think that usually are programmers (web programers but programmers(usually
the juniors)) wich take the HTML(only html) generated by the designers and
insert all the jsp and java stuff. Really JSP is a java class and is very
dangerous that people that don�t understand java programming touch a JSP(a
designer can understand a compilation error from the tomcat, Jrun, etc?).

If your project is very large is usual that certain programmers, work with
the logic stuff(beans, servlets, taglibs, ejb�s.....) and other programmers
(web programmers) work with jsp or another template engines (velocity,
xsl....).

But if anybody works this way, I�m happy to hear their impressions.

In a perfect world, no Java code would go in the JSP itself, it would all be
in servlets, custom tags or beans.  Then the designer only needs to know how
to insert code for a tag or bean and what information the tags or bean will
return; and which servlet to use as a form action or whatever.  Designers
can also use something like Dreamweaver to help with tag libraries.

Subject: Separation of HTML and Java work in a JSP


Hi everybody,

I'm a bit confused about the way JSPs should be programmed. Which is the
correct way to separate HTML design from Java logic? should a person be
responsible for the HTML and another person should take this result and
program the logic? but the presentation changes depending on the parameters
passed, so all these posibilities should be programmed by the designer?
I think the most practical way is that a person should know about design and
Java. Is this right?

Thanks a lot!

Luis Javier
