In theory, establish a clean content / presentation split between
HTML and CSS is a pleasing idea.
In practice, it's a bunch of starry-eyed crack-smoking idealism.
My $0.02.

I agree with Gavin's sentiment that, in general, you want to do your
presentation work in CSS. However, in order for that to be
effective, you
really need to have good mark-up to style.
The edge that I think Tapestry has here is that it makes it easy
for me to
produce the mark-up, rather than relying on the knowledge/
experience/tastes
of the JSF component developer. In order for me to have control
over the
mark-up in JSF, I have to write my own components - which seems
unnecessarily complex for what should be a reasonably simple task.

PS - I'd also recommend the Javaposse podcasts, as they cover some
good
material. For those that have not listened, it's probably worth
stating
up-front that the presenters all met each other through developing/
using
Sun's Creator product, so there does tend to be some leaning
towards JSF...

Subject: Gavin King's comment about presentation code and CSS in
Javaposse
podcast
Hi, just recently listen Gavin King making a comment about JSF in the
javaposse podcasts. He points out tapestry ability to separate html
templates from component logic and definitions, but he also
justifies that
this shouldn't be an issue in jsf because all the design should be
done in
css.
I personally disagree, since there are little things easier to do
in the
.html, but I thought it might be interesting for people to listen, the
javaposse podcasts are very cool and they interview important
people in the
java community.
