Hi,

So I'm pretty new to creating websites. We are about to start a huge project. I was wondering if people can share their stories of unexpected problems they've had a long the way. Things I should look for maybe? Anything that you underestimated, or just didn't think of at al? Anything would be helpful!

What type or project? Custom code? Open source cms? There always seems to be hold ups for me, but they don't take up too much time, i always stick to with deadlines just to get the project up and running. If you're doing the design part.. slicing the page might be a bit tricky.. or cross browser css alignment/style issues. too many possibilities.

If you're working with another person, i'd say to get stuff down on paper, including a contract. I've wasted too much time and money working with partners that blew off the project. Good luck
