We have a team of developers here and we just launched a beta of a site re-design. We are just too busy dealing with site fixes and updates. Production is something which we feel belongs firmly in the designer's domain (HTML is not programming no matter what designer's say - they should know how to make their design work in HTML. In fact, a knowledge of HTML should inform their design process - the example of the login form is a good example of what happens when they don't understand that). -- Aj. _______________________________________________ New York PHP User Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
