That's a _quite_ true statement, I think :) I have been reading the list for around a year now but unfortunately I haven't really been active. I think maybe we can handle the newbie-style of threads with a protocol (a stateless one is much recommended ;) a) Write a short answer or a pointer to some page about the subject (where an answer could be found. Same applies to the PHP manual) b) Write a pointer to a How-to-ask-questions-the-smart-way-style document, gently pointing out what was wrong. RTFMs may be well deserved if the come back doing it again (which doesn't happen that often) Regards, Ahmed
