    NOTE!!!! You can do things in Indesign that don't translate well to the web... for example, your print designer has total control over font metrics, you don't... so in Indesign multiple text boxes of varying sizes can be made to line up exactly vertically and horizontally at a footer, in HTML that can be done with lots of labor in jQuery, but even then not easily and cleanly.... and it creates a codepile that's hard to maintain and change if the print designer suddenly tweeks something, you have to re-do alot more than they do.... I fought the indesign -> web thing painfully in 2006... jQuery wasn't commonly used then....
