Very well said Will...
Most of us who've been around a while are aware of
the links provided but you've put together a "document" that consolidates this
in a very nice way. Excellent advice and a method I've used throughout my
career. It's not only useful to newbie's but the seasoned as
well.
The arsdeveloper site (http://www.arsdeveloper.com) (defaced)
can be gotten around by using this URL.
You'll get the following error page which
provides access to some of the modules.
I could not find the file you
were looking for
Please continue your search at the sites below.
ARSForums.com - ARSPeople.com - ARSModules.com - ARSAds.com - ARSDeveloper.com - ARSJob.com
Please continue your search at the sites below.
ARSForums.com - ARSPeople.com - ARSModules.com - ARSAds.com - ARSDeveloper.com - ARSJob.com
Some of the links (the bottom line of above) work
and others don't. The "back" button comes in handy when they don't
work.
Again... Nicely done Will.
My best regards,
Tom
