I think that the route that one takes into this job and the learning process you go through have an enormous influence on how one believes the job should be done.
For example. I started off using table layout, maybe for a year. I switched over to CSS layouts because of an OU course I did laying emphasis on W3C standards. So that was the basis of everything I did from a very early stage - HTML and then XHTML strict plus CSS layouts. Then about a year ago, for reasons I forget - probably Alistapart, I got into the Accessiblity issue which added a further layer of "rules" to the way I did things.
Since that point I've started messing with PHP and mySQL and I've managed to implement them on top of the XHTML, CSS, Web Standards, Accessibility etc etc.
What I'm trying to say is that the order of learning effects my views now. If I'd started out learning C++ or Java or ASP.net and then tried to add CSS and standards into the mix I might have different order of priorities.
