However, always make sure that the programmer is there and involved from day 0. The designers we work with frequently need to be told "that 3 second feature you just suggested just added 300 hours to the project and destroyed 508 compliance", usually multiple times. That *must* happen before the client sees it, or you're screwed. It's never too early to get the programmer involved in the project, even if no coding happens until far later. -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 larry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ICQ: 6817012 "If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas Jefferson -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
