Thanks for all your efforts and your explanations, Stan. There's another type of Notes-client-only developer that you don't mention. The ones who have done non-Domino web development and who use many of the features of Lotus including LotusScript, but don't use Java or JavaScript.

I fall into that category. I've done web development, and even attempted it in Domino, and trying to figure out all the myriad places finally made me throw up my hands in frustration.

When I can pick up something like Ruby on Rails and develop a functional (if not elegant) website in less than a day, but the same thing in Domino has me beating my head against a wall a week later, there's a problem. I won't disagree that part of it is me, but I will say that I have never found any good tutorials on how to go from the basic "Hello World" website to something like CSS Zen Garden.

I appreciate your efforts, and those of the people you link to (whom I never would have known about otherwise), and hope to one day be able to claim to understand how all the pieces of a Domino web site fit together. Keep the knowledge coming, I'll try to cram it into my pea brain somewhere. :)
