[thelist] HTML test (tip)

[dante]

Think carefully - what are they really testing?
If the computer that you're working on crashes more than once during the
test...
If they tell you that "the spec. that they ask you to work to is obsolete,
but try to follow it anyway (N3.0)."
While you are working, you keep on getting interrupted by the interviewer
"Just seeing how you're going..."
The images for the test site are in a format are on the network -somewhere-
with different names than on the design docs.

Thanks,
