    LOL. That just cracks me up, as that kind makes my brane hert two. I've seen his type around on a few different forums. They are all trying to work with something that is way over the top of their heads at the moment, and seemingly mad at everyone because no one can really understand what they are saying as they don't know enough about the subject to even make sense. They also don't seem to have any desire to go read or study on their own either.

    You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink....

    You also need to take on board that English is not his native language.

    Er - PHP can reasonably fall under both programming and scripting. And as it is mostly used for web-pages (which it why it was written in the first place) the third isn't *too* far-fetched!

    What section do you think would be more appropriate?

    I had already figured that part out, Harry.

    His lack of English skills can't be that severe though because he comes here and communicates as well as some native English speakers. He just needs to study the subjects out like everyone else has to do. He needs to start at the fundamentals and work his way into the subject. Instead he just jumps in over his head and then gets frustrated because he can't figure things out. But yet he still doesn't seem to see the need for study. He has been pointed to resources that could greatly help him out, but he ignores them. That failing can't be because English is his second language.

    I'm always willing to help someone out, until they prove themselves to be unwilling to help themselves. Then I'll let them flounder. I have worked very hard to learn what I have learned(and I would imagine you have too), and I'll help anyone else I see who is studying hard but having difficulty understanding some issue, because I've been there and done that too. But, I'll be hanged if I'll give someone something that they are not willing to work for themselves. IOWs, I'll teach a man to fish, but I won't give a man a fish who refuses to fish for himself.... :dry :noway
