Calling someone a twat is not going to persuade anybody to change how you think a proper reply should be. If I dont understand someone's question, should I not let them know that if that make themselves a little clearer a better answer may be given instead of 12 people shooting in the dark giving answers to problems that are not the issue the person is having? : skips comment on RTFM :) Yes the list is about helping people out, but we (those who help people) arn't here to write someone elses code. If and when that is done people become too lazy and rely on the list to have their problems solved, instead of the user doing research himself to find out if this is a common problem. Like for example, when people are asking for examples a simple google search for '<functionname>' example', usually results with some good examples. cheers, Curt -- "I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure." -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
