Usually, it goes like this, from what I've seen on this list over the past few years: 1. An experienced user answers a FAQ 99 times. 2. The 100th time, the question just gets deleted and the experienced user gives up answering those questions ever again. 3. A new generation of listers finally get it, and approach `experienced user' status. 4. GOTO 1 So the majority of the people that know the answers don't answer FAQ questions unless they're really bored out of their mind, or _feel like learning, themselves_. I'm not trying to be sarcastic, I'm just speaking the truth. And, the PHP manual /is/ a Fine one. -- Brian Clark | Avoiding the general public since 1805!
