For which I do not know the reason.
It has been suggested I do my own work. I did and presented it for further
suggestions. I tried the @URL suggestion and got no results back (I had the
content type wrong). I downloaded wGET and cURL and experimented passing
arguments to them but couldn¹t see how to intergrate this with witango. I
even dabbled in BASH scripts but couldn¹t see the relevance. I confess I
didn¹t look at RealBasic.
I don¹t rely on this list. I work out my own problems on a day to day basis.
When I get truly stumped I come here and post my enquiry. More times than
not just formulating my problem as a coherent question allows me to solve it
before hitting send.
As for no one defending me, maybe no one agrees with me. Maybe everyone here
thinks I am a jerk for asking for help. Burning bridges? Damn I can¹t even
ask for help with a stupid transaction problem without getting a mouthful.
Do you honestly think I will make that mistake again.
Another theory says that their are a whole bunch of people who don¹t want
to get involve¹ or don¹t see the value in this list if you can¹t ask a
stupid question. It¹s certainly a different feel here to 5 years ago. That
would be sad.
Seriously, before replying to this post, have a look back at my original
question and follow ups. Is it really that heinous a crime?
