My plan for Khaled was for him to just produce a clean, from-scratch, mock-up of his designs. I'm not sure if he did the current work in CSS/HTML or Photoshop. I think making the "from-scratch" CSS and then filling in the actual PHP logic will produce cleaner source rather than the alternative. I am planning on putting in the actual PHP logic into the HTML source and adding Ajax along the way. This is the best method I've found for my sites. If you do the reverse you end up killing yourself trying to fiddle w/ the css AND code rather than just the reverse. I think the current HTML source is dead, long-live the HTML source. :) If someone thinks this isn't the right way to go, please speak up.
