Newbies: please join a local web guild or user group (or start one by networking with people of similar interest or vocation) so that you can tutor one another. There wasn't one in my city so I *started* one and have contributed way more than I get back from it; but I believe in guilds/SIGs/user groups. Even if you live in Timbuk2, you can join a *virtual* user group; there are communities of web developers to be found on USENET, eGroups/groups.Yahoo.com, and many other places. As we say in Texas, "cowboy up!" :) Monty -- PHP Windows 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]
