Be careful not to edit the css files etc in the build directory - easily done and very confusing (changes are lost on each build) - if a build fails because the build folder can not ve emptied -check you are not editing any files in the build folder by mistake.

There is no reason why the content providers can not get on with the site before the design is complete (or even started).

When working on the design, particularly editing the CSS files - lift a .html file from the build directory and place it in the design folder, hack it so that it links to the design/design copies of the css files. In this way rebuilds are not required to view the effects of css changes.

Consider making your site complient with Strict XHTML standards and validate it - see http://validator.w3.org/ It keeps your thinking clear and the validation tools may find issues with your formatting you had not condsidered.

Don't forget to test your site design with several browsers (test each change in design!). As a minimum check against Firefox and MS Internet Explorer.
