Then surely the CMS isn't doing it's job? They are coding when the CMS should be managing the work?
I can see your stance but the fact they are now coding ad-hoc (and no doubt the JS will not be checked) they could wreak havoc either deliberate or otherwise. More to the point... Telltales?

Well, the web page they are maintaining is kept inside of a cms, and the site owner's staff needs to input little bits of js into the web pages to provide telltales for exterior systems. They expect to do this entirely for themselves. The CMS is in place specifically to eliminate the developer from the job picture. If the words "javascript" weren't involved it would be mind-numbingly dreary, day-to-day work. Its not developer-level work. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Janitor, The Robertson Team mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/ Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:271804 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
