Thank you Ross. I have started e-mails to them but ended up never
sending them. That was probably a mistake!!

If I were you I'd politely decline to continue the project on teh
grounds that it is incresing difficult and costly for you to operate
with such internal conflict on what this project is supposed to
entail. Their decision-making process is beyond your scope as a
developer and until such time they can approach you with a fixed and
definitive brief then it is achieveing nothing except waste your time
and money, a cost of which, naturally, you have no choice but to pass
on to them.
Furthermore the design choices being made, irrespective of your
PROFESSIONAL advice, will ultimately serve only to destroy any
professional image and credibility this company may have already. As a
developer you must deliver what the client wants. Should that client
make choices that will be of a determent to them, you take pride in
your work and have a professional and personal responsibility to
inform them of these facts and provide your expertise. At the end of
the day, if the client knew what they were doing they wouldn't have
hired you.
So put the ball back into their court: either recoup the wasted time
and inform them that you will continue to do so while they in-fight,
stand your ground and let them they're going to make themselves look
ridiculous if they continue down this route, or pull the plug on the
grounds of professional disagreement.
Unless they're willing to keep paying you for the time and energy
they're wasting here, this job and this client are not worth the
headaches and associating yourself with what will end up as a 1998
high school Frontpage job.
