    Get the details before you begin a project.

    If you know that someone else will be completing the site, get details on their expectations for what technology you are using to build it.

    Most companies hire in-house web developers who are cheap.

    Cheap means that they use a wysiwyg, and don't have much experience.

    I'm sure the intuition to get more details about their designer's abilities crossed your mind at some point.

    But you were too excited about using the latest CSS2 properties on this project.

    The 'cheaper in the long-term' rebuttle is null here. Now they have to buy the latest version of DW and/or pay you to change it to tables.

    And their web developer has to spend company time to learn advanced css.

    It's a good thing he's cheap.
