There is a .Net list on House of Fusion where .Net questions are on topic. http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/44
Lets move the tech question there and the discussion about posting etiquette to one of the non-tech lists (CF-OT, CF-Community, etc.) Thanks > I'm actually not the self appointed "gate keeper". It's more of a > community effort. Lots of people complain about the off-topic and > stupid (lazy) posts that get put on this list. I myself have been > reminded when I was being lazy to do a little work myself. For > instance, your request was quite simple if you did a google search for > "asp.net pagination". I got tons of results and got the info needed in > about 15 seconds. > > I'm also into classic cars and do lots of stuff with hot rods and such. > I'm sure that someone else on this list probably has knowledge/expertise > in this area, but that does't mean I'm going to ask the list about that. > There are times when OT questions are posted and nothing is said, but in > general, the list as a whole tries to remind everyone to stay on topic. > > If you want to see examples of how these reminders are stated, look at > the responses to last week's firefox arguments. I was trying to be > civil and just send it to you as a reminder but it appears that I > somehow hurt your feelings by doing so. I'm sorry to hear that you're > easily upset and hope you find your answers to your questions. > > > John Burns > Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX Developer > AI-ES Aeronautics, Web Developer > > -----Original Message----- > From: Eric Creese [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, December 16, 2004 11:58 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: OT-ASP pagination > > That is cool with me.
