There are times that there's a clash between the look and feel of a web site, and the need for functionallity - for it to operate correcly in all circumstances. Of course, both are key elements - a web site must work correctly for it to be useful, and it must attract and retain the visitor, and help the visitor through the various steps.

My wife Lisa is our "look and feel" guru. I'm the one who does the programming and gets the thing to operate and - perhaps you can imagine - there are times that we take a different view or approach to what is (or turns out to be,inthe end) the same desire. There are times when I feel (and I know Lisa does too) that a ducking stool in Melksham could be a useful threat ... but then I have to admit (after another day of working on web pages) thatsome of them are looking very much better and we end up sharing a late nite pizza and watching the tail end of the snooker.
