Maybe they just wanted to make it look more impressive than it actually is, so they could charge more? :sigh:

And this agency is now wondering why we aren’t giving a redesign project to them…

Nope, I’m doing the redesign instead. They worked out that if you have an in-house web developer and designer, you might as well make use of her. 🙂

I think the design agency are going to be losing one of their big clients. Whoops. 🙂

Actually, I did last week. They’re discussing it with HR. 🙂

Although I think my demand of £35K might be a little too much for someone my age who’s only ben here 6 months… 🙂

35K bp’s would be about 55K dollars. I’m getting paid only 30,000, which is abotu 20,000 pounds. That’s cause I didnt know how much to ask for when they hired me. I just found out that I could be earning around 60K, at least. That’s about 38k pounds or so. You should ask for more. (but I dont know how the standard of living is over there, I know your government taxes the hell out of gas)

They tax the hell out of \<i\>everything\</i\> :sigh:

Most of my money goes on my house. Got a joint mortgage and a lot of decorating. 🙂

yeah, I dont know why taxes are so high over there… and are you guys EVER converting to the euro? I heard things are cheaper in euros than in pounds over there…

Most of the country is against the Euro. We like our pounds and pence. I think it was a big enough problem getting us to go metric. 🙂

Blair wants it, Brown (Chancellor) doesn’t, and it’s going nowhere fast.

Gotta love PHP 😉 _lol_…

CF… Haven’t even dived into it… I never found a use for me to dive in it yet… I’ve been happy with the way PHP has been treating me… Then again when someone will want a CF enabled front I’ll have to learn it _lol_…

I’ve been wanting to learn CF… but as mentioned, a CF enabled server costs extra dough. PHP floats my boat just fine…

> ASP is far better Dynamic server content my friend… you need to do some reading!

LOL what a quote. I cant’ believe you are comparing the two. One is better at some things, the other is better at others. They are like comparing apples with oranges. hehe. but anyway, i dont want to get into an arguement about the two, to be honest they are miles apart in technology and also in applicability to a situation.

Ok back to the question. most have answered exactly right. The PHP code is Server Side, and HTML is Client side is the most relevant comment. If you know the power of Server side as opposed to client side you can see where PHP is miles ahead of HTML.

However as said by others, it may be over kill for your own site. Whatever the technology… Php, Asp, Html. Dhtml, Flash, Java, whatever… dont use technology for technologies sake. Use what gets the job done. Know your objectives and then customise your solution around those, not around a technology.

That’s excellent… I’m going to be repeating this to others in the future if you don’t mind.
