As if anyone would. My point is we cannot legislate around reckless or stupid people. It’s an exercise in futility.
I am an automotive enthusiast. Nearly every fluid or component I buy has a label on it per Prop 65. I have been wearing gloves all along. What’s the intent?
Someone draw the line for me, when does personal responsibility for one’s own health lead to labeling everything a carcinogen?

CakePHP is a server-side framework. Browser incompatibility is not going to be an issue of CakePHP. Either you are too inexperienced to know this or you are making a lame excuse.

I can see where this would go wrong if the developer made a complete rookie mistake and screwing up input on forms, methods, requests, etc. But these are the reasons for choosing and using a framework, anyone using a framework should know this. These types of problems are abstracted and there is not a need to reinvent the wheel. This does not add up with your story.

I am calling BS. I think you stiffed the developer and you trying to save face. You guys were apparently not involved with the development processes of the project, you could have had the developer resolve the problems and thus would not have had a complaint.

In the end, this is basic business, you agreed to pay the developer for their time. You allowed the developer to complete the project apparently without question, pay up and move on.
