Big surprise. They guy's sick of programming because he never liked coding in the first place. This is his ideal development model: "I used to do storyboards right in the VB6 IDE asking the business guys what they wanted, 'so you need a form, with a list box and what should be in the list box, and when you clicked ok, now what...' And on it went. In a couple of days to a week, we basically had the front end of the application prototyped. Since it was back in the 'two tier' days all we had to do was hook it up to the database. And if we got really 'fancy', (or had the luxury), we added a third tier of business logic written out as VB6 classes, not in the stored procs, and after a bunch of testing, report writing, etc., boom! off it goes into production." I hate Dreamweaver's design mode. Sure, only writing straight HTML/CSS/JavaScript over the many years has arguably taken more effort. I had to learn the "complexities" of my environment, that the author bemoans, such as browser bugs (found a new one that's IE7-exclusive the other day), but now I can recognize and solve browser bugs almost instantly and can build pages blind. As a result, the finished product is always of the highest quality and very robust.
