Agreed - but who are you to decide what the right tools are? I signed up to this list expecting inteligent debates and information about PHP, not a mass willy waving exercise by yourself (and Mike Robinson) over who knows best.
Any developer who needs mom to tell them what to do still is on the wrong list - or am I mistaken and this is really [EMAIL PROTECTED]? To get the job done fast you do it the way you know best using the tools you work with day in and day out. Who is to say there is a better way than the way that Joe Bloggs is doing it? Sure there may be easier ways to you, but are those ways as easy to Joe? Sure there may be quicker ways for you, but would those ways be as quick for Joe to traverse? Advice is most welcome in many cultures in this world - but your not offering advice. Your bitch slapping down any idea / concept / way of doing things, other than the way you are doing it. Stop. This message isn't designed to cause a metaphorical debate, nor is it to twist the knife. With a little hope, its aim is to remove the bitching that inside of 3 days has made me reconsider the maturity of some of the people on this list, and also my place as a member of it. I have already found much help in a socket based issue, and also found must aggrovation over my inbox being filled with smarmy know-it-alls like our friend Ken. Would it not be more constructive just to get along, work as a team to solve and extend PHP's core problems and value? -- Dan Hardiker [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ADAM Software & Systems Engineer First Creative Ltd > You are completely avoiding the issue here.
