I used to work reasonably well with designers until CSS came along. Now my writing is supposed to be a soldier in the fight for Web "standards." Help. My work has to look great in MSIE, and I can't wait for the other browsers to fix their bugs. So I'm going to use paragraphs and breaks and old unbuggy stuff like that where I need to. I think of designers as people who make me look good, not as political advisors. They mostly aren't even very good at the politics. Look at it this way. We're all locked in a trunk. You can't get out of the trunk by smearing ketchup on my tie. It won't make the guys driving the car lose any money. They can't even see into the trunk. It's locked, from the outside.
