RE: [PHP] javascript type cast OT
[snip] Since the accepted method to generate browser interaction with server side PHP, is to use Javascript, it doesn't seem any more off-topic than dealing with database questions about MySQL. [/snip] Actually the accepted method to generate browser interaction with server side PHP is http requests, JavaScript is a little more off topic. Just picking nits, but we all know that I am an arse! ;) And many MySQL (or plain old SQL) questions get flamed too. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] javascript type cast OT
[snip] I have been on a number of lists over the years, as what ever technology I'm using at the time has demanded. I would have to say that this list is one of the most curt and condescending lists I've ever been on. [/snip] Hmmm, you should see the C++ newsgroup(s). Actually I would have to say that when it comes to lists (I myself and many others here are on several) that this one and perhaps the MySQL general list get more OT posts. Since PHP can be a entry point for first time programmers it also ramps up the number of posts where the user has not been familiarized with terms and actions such as RTFM, STFW or STFA. Common and well established list courtesies established years ago are expected to be suspended herewhy? Having said that I suppose that those of us who are curt and condescending (of which I am one) can shut up or go somewhere else, which we have been asked to do several times. I was just here to learn and to help where I could. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] javascript type cast OT
Hmmm, you should see the C++ newsgroup(s). Point taken... Common and well established list courtesies established years ago are expected to be suspended herewhy? Nope and that's wasn't my point. My point was temperance. Having said that I suppose that those of us who are curt and condescending (of which I am one) can shut up or go somewhere else, which we have been asked to do several times. I was just here to learn and to help where I could. And I will be the first to admit that you have been one of the people on this list that has answered every one of my questions, no matter how stupid they have been. (And there has been some real boners) However there is a difference between list courtesy and blatant aggression. I understand that there are going to be more newbie's to programming here than on most language lists. Does this mean that they don't get the same consideration that those get who it is apparent that they have been hacking code for a while?
