Why would anyone not use a template system in web design in the first place. It cuts down on time of repeating arbatary tasks and increase your development productivity When is a template system not nessary? when a site consist of only a few pages where there is few to none changes based on a month to month updates.
Now i am an advicate of adobe products and dreamweaver is a turifice wyswyg editor but i’m not a fan of there template system few minor bugs and unessary nussances that aren’t required. So when i develop a mediam to large scale site i think about how to make the site scaleable for furture changes, one of the ways i do that is by cutting out time wasters. Time wasters like imputing the same menu on 10 to 100 pages that all look the same a template helps reduce my develpment time. So I use a modual template system, making all the repeatable parts into there own blocks and stacking them where i need them.
