It's actually pretty normal and can work really well.

Especially if the HTML person also did the graphic design and KNOWS how to make it work as a web page. We let them build HTML files, which are then turned into Smarty templates with the necessary blocks of Smarty code to work through whatever PHP hands to the template. The PHP app developer can then focus on the application logic...with the app's output going to the appropriate Smarty template. It's a pretty good system compared to the one person doing everything model that I worked under for a long time. Even a one person team can use that approach by separating the tasks and then maintaining discipline to work on the separate tasks, separately. John Corry
