> no such thing as a stupid question... I strongly disagree. Refer to the topic: "RTFM". A stupid question is one that is posted to this message board before the poster bothers to do a shred of independent thinking. I've seen way too many of these questions come through this list. The MySQL list was about the same. It was more of a bother to read than it was a benefit. This list is about the same quality. Every once in a long while something useful comes along, but unfortunately their burried underneath 100 other postings of lazy newbies asking questions like *scrolls about 10 messages down* "How to send url on if statement".
1) if statements are surely covered on php.net 2) It is not a php-specific question 3) If you don't understand how "if statements" work, use that 8lb mass on your shoulders - RTFM Just my $0.02 USD. /bart -----Original Message----- From: Andrew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 4:49 PM To: Nick Wilson; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP] RTFM Nick My personal feelings on this is that there is no such thing as a stupid question... sometimes what you might find the simplest if things becomes very difficult for another person to grasp!

Some of the stuff here is *very* interesting. Unfortunately most of the stuff posted is a little ridiculous in that it's posted by people that clearly don't know where the online manual is located. Don't get me wrong, I'm no expert and I don't object to the 'I had a look but...' posts I just think the list might be a little more interesting if those that *really* know there stuff stopped giving detailed answers to Q's like 'my html page shows the php code' and were just a little less tolerant.
