The problem is that people are lazy or just to stupid to look for stuff.
Sometimes yes, we just miss something small or it is under another section.
I have done it as recently as tuesday with implode. But this is getting nuts.
I guess I am frustrated because all the lists I am on are filled with lazy
people
who whine and want someone else to do all their work for them. PHP is not
low level
if you need something simple use iHTML. It is the simplest scripting
language out there.
I propose that the first few sentances of the signup message should be...
READ THE MANUAL BEFORE POSTING!!!!!!
READ THE MANUAL BEFORE POSTING!!!!!!
READ THE MANUAL BEFORE POSTING!!!!!!
if you are confused about this... READ THE MANUAL BEFORE POSTING!!!!!!
SEARCH THE ARCHIVES / FAQ BEFORE POSTING!!!!!
SEARCH THE ARCHIVES / FAQ BEFORE POSTING!!!!!
SEARCH THE ARCHIVES / FAQ BEFORE POSTING!!!!!
if you doing understand then SEARCH THE ARCHIVES / FAQ BEFORE POSTING!!!!!
