But that is a very short-termist POV - since you'll waste a tonne
of resources in the long term supporting the 'easy' / 'quick'
solution. The real trick is probably finding one of the very
few web designers who actually recognise the beenfits of CSS, for
who doing it 'the right way' is just as easy as with nightmare
weaver :-)
