I have to agree with Phil and Mr. van Ouwerkerk. I am a newbie too, and while we may miss things in the manual that are obvious to more experienced programmers, or ask questions that have been asked and answered in the list over and over again (guilty here!), I believe an attempt should at least be made to find the answer before asking the experts in the mailing list. Newbies like myself should remember that most people who are subscribed to this list are very busy with work and projects and are being quite generous to contribute free advice to those of us who are less knowledgeable. Here are some useful resources I turn to when I'm seeking a PHP-related answer: www.phpbuilder.com www.webreference.com www.webmonkey.com www.devshed.com www.weberdev.com Tom Malone http://www.tom-malone.com On Tuesday 31 July 2001 3:05, you wrote: > I've just looked at his emails for the last week, and he is a helpful guy! > Not only is he helpful, I'll wager he's being helpful in a language that's > not his native tongue, so it's utterly unreasonable to expect the subtle > 'gentle' idioms that you might get from a native speaker who had plenty of > time to construct an email, and plenty of patience for someone who should > have RTFM. > > I say, be grateful he is sparing some time to contribute! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
