Take a local publish and make it a view. - El Forum - 08-29-2007

Hi,
I am new to CI. Starting first project. Not the greatest CSS, XHTML programmer. I like to create websites with more visual arrangement of page components. I can create a page much faster. Currently using Shutterbug and RapidWeaver on the Mac.
I have read alot of discussion on the forums and wikis about the arrangement of views and embedding views in views, splitting up webpages into parts, etc.
Has anybody come up with a way to take a local published directory from one of the visual web designer programs and make it an operational view with proper paths to css, js, images, etc? They work on the local drive. Why not a view?
That would be way cool. The styles and templates would be managed by the website creator tool. Variables could be put into places in generated web pages where controller or model classes could assign code to. CI would basically be a variable filler and page pusher.
Maybe this has already been done. Thanks for your input to my newbie thoughts here.

Hello FastPhoto,
i hope someday, you will be able to read this.
I thought of reviving the topic since it would be interesting for every dev who is working alone and actually is not able to
design a decent look into his/her webpage.
i will try the rapidweaver approach and post my experiences here.
take care
