That's a _quite_ true statement, I think :) I have been reading the list for around a year now but unfortunately Ihaven't really been active. I think maybe we can handle thenewbie-style of threads with a protocol (a stateless one is muchrecommended ;) a) Write a short answer or a pointer to some page about the subject(where an answer could be found. Same applies to the PHP manual)b) Write a pointer to a How-to-ask-questions-the-smart-way-styledocument, gently pointing out what was wrong. RTFMs may be well deserved if the come back doing it again (whichdoesn't happen that often) Regards,Ahmed
