The list is to help people out AFTER they have made reasonable efforts to resolve their problems themselves. Resonable efforts includes (but not limited to): - RTFM, download a copy for quick reference, for more info refer to the online manual and its user notes (or download the Windows Help version) - Search the list archives - Google And when posting questions, if people can (at the very least) state: - succinctly what they're trying to achieve - what they have tried that (presumably) didn't work, and HOW it didn't work (error messages etc) it would make it easier to get a better response. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* "Ain't that something what happened today.
