Hi, Chris.
Really, thanks for the suggestion. I'm with you 100% and approached this
product with a TON of trepidation. I knew I was looking at a host service
that had to have something called "FrontPage extensions" installed and read
the online manual for the server I chose where they said I could easily
corrupt these extensions and that there'd be a fee to rebuild them.
Yes, I truly love open-source because of the support from folks like you and
others and because of the flexibility across a wide variety of platforms.
But, let's face it, if you have a new job and the whole corporation is using
FrontPage, you can't change their thinking until you've mastered their own
art and then shown them some tricks that simply can't be done with what
they're using.
This is where I am now. I taught myself PHP and MySQL so well that I was
able to impress people working in an entirely different field than where I
am now. Heck, I'm just a customer service rep, for crying out loud! I'm now
poised to make the big bucks like you all!
Now, to be smart about this, I have to infiltrate. I have to weasel. I have
to beg for some cool software. But before I can gain credibility, I have to
use what they're using now and that's FrontPage, believe it or not.
So, bottom line? Thanks for bearing with me and thanks to those who help me
meld the open-source PHP with products that aren't quite designed to handle
it because of their vested interests. THIS is where the value is for groups
like this and folks like you and I thank you so very much.
Yours,
Murph
