They are indeed, they product was originally from a company called
GoLive and was called CyberStudio - hence the CS.
IIRR, if your friend chooses to 'Export' the site from GoLive it will
strip out all those tags, they are only there to tell GoLive itself
what goes where in the page, the web browser doesn't need them at
all. It's also possible to have it strip out that sort of stuff
automatically when you upload to a server.
Tell him to read the manual, Page 423 if it's GoLive 5!

I never saw problems myself, but then I usually Export and have those
tags stripped out :)
*No* he won't need to redo the site.
The only down side to exporting is that if you have to re-import it
into GoLive it'll not pick up all those actions again AFAIK, so make
sure you don't modify the HTML by hand afterwards, and make sure he
keeps a backup of the original files, because if you need to make
changes he'll need them.
