Moin Goetz,
Joseph J. Lowery hat den Sinn und Zweck von Templates mal in einem Buch (zu Macromedias Dreamweaver) so beschrieben:
Let‚s face it: Webdesign is a combination of glory and grunt work. Creating the initital design for a Web site can be fun and exciting, but when you have to implement your wonderful new design on 200 or more pages, the excitement fades as you try to figure out the quickest way to finish the work. Enter templates.
