Maybe, I dunno... I tend to think it's more backlash to FrontPage and
the early versions of DreamWeaver which resulted both in a ton of
spaghetti code which wouldn't validate on its best day and a ton of
really awful websites that all looked the same.


Yeah.  It sucks to have to come in and properly clean up a website that
was built some "guru" with a sorry excuse for a WYSIWYG tool and
absolutely no understanding of the fundamentals of web design.  (E.g.,
the masthead on your page should never be 4788x1962 1.2MB graphic that
you crammed into a 700x250 space only by specifying width and height
attributes).  Please see http://afrotc.osu.edu/ for an example (beware
if you are on dialup).  If people did this sort of stuff building
houses or bridges, they would be incarcerated for criminal negligence.
