They will never learn HTML 4.01, CSS or accessible page Whilst most of what you say is probably true, this attitude is normally considered a management virtue, and it is the technical people who have to be kept from exceeding the literal specification. This was particularly true when (before HTML) I worked for a big software house, in which case succcess on a fixed price contract depended on doing as little as possible whilst still complying - their ISO 9000 definition was "compliance with specification", by which they meant comply with the specification but no more.
