While I understand the distinct skill sets, job titles, and prime focus between 'designers' and 'programmers' I'd like to make a plug for the possible integration of these two roles in VERY SMALL sites and applications. I'm hoping to learn enough about both aspects to create a successful site (ok..we're a research group, not needing to attract users, and not focused as much on look and feel as we are on functionality - but we've gotta get a better interface that what comes directly with Zope). Wonder if an introduction of using a designing editor (ok.. i'll suggest DreamWeaver) and integrating it with a simple Zope site might be a good start? This might be a way for a senior, advanced Web Designer (with javascript experience, etc) to grok the divide, and see how Zope could become another took in their kits. And it also might be a way to get Zope folks to bring together their experiences (and frustrations?) in getting pure zope sites to integrate with a more traditional site. ZPT be a good thing to include in such an introduction?? rich Jason Cunliffe wrote:

I'm looking for an introduction to Zope for web-designers. I'm having a bunch of people with lots of knowledge about html, javascript,... and such, but know nil about zope , dtml or python. Is there a documentation out there that I can give to them for a good start into zope?
Good topic for a new Zope book. Much needed imho.
Can you be clearer about what kind of introduction you are looking for. Do you expect them to program Zope themselves, or merely be part of a team using Zope.
Thinking Zope vs. Using Zope vs. Designing Zope vs. Understanding Zope etc..?
