There's no "page" per se. You are creating instructions for your web
app to assemble components and templates (and maybe data) into what
would commonly be known as a "page". You tell your app to assemble
these components by clicking a link or pressing a button, generally.
This triggers an action in the application server.
I had a discussion with someone who wanted to protect the "pages" of
a WebObjects application by creating a Realm on the folder. I had a
hard time explaining that there is no folder full of pages to protect
in the traditional web site development sense. Are you thinking in
terms of static pages?
So yes, a programmer needs to become involved for any dynamically
added content, whether it's data access, a swappable component, etc.
The designer doesn't add pages. The templates that they provide are
filled by the programmer with the functionality that is required. I
hope that makes some sense.

If your designer adds a page with dynamic content, what effect does
that have on the application? Does a programmer need to do something
to integrate the page? Do you need to rebuild and re-deploy?

In our case, the web designer did all the HTML templates we
needed. We use
them as page wrappers in our WO content. We have no "static"
content, but
there's no reason you can't link from static web pages to full
blown WO
components (or vice versa). The templates are all CSS, so minor
tweaks to
the CSS are usually the only design changes we see. If you need
full on
template changes, you just swap out the page wrapper component and
swap in
the new wrapper. Am I missing something?

Using WO, how does one separate the web designer from the programmer?
