That posting style is known as "Interleaved style", described by Wikipedia: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Interleaved_style> c.l.js FAQ has some good guidelines for asking questions: <http://jibbering.com/faq/#ask> The c.l.js guidelines are intended for helping the poster get the best possible reply. They're not strict rules. The archives are going to be better than Google Groups' archives and search. One sore point of c.l.js is that searching the archives is such a pain in the back. Of course it would be hard to do worse than what has been done with GG search. -- Garrett _______________________________________________ JSMentors mailing list [email protected] http://jsmentors.com/mailman/listinfo/jsmentors_jsmentors.com List Archive: http://jsmentors.com/pipermail/jsmentors_jsmentors.com/
