I mean, it's > not like that's ever happened to *us*. ;-} I've been studying PHP for at least 2 years straight now, after dabbling in it for about a year 6 years ago. So even though I've had my nose to the grind for a good 2 years now, I don't think I can call my mistake a "rookie mistake". Thats what's frustrating to me. LOL -- Blessings, David M.

I got some great advice early on from tedd sperling... When I have a problem that I can't fix... I sit down and write the e-mail to the list... Thinking through all the info that might be helpful to help debug it... What I've tried, what I"m expecting... Things of that nature... Usually by the time I'm done writing the e-mail I'e figured out the problem... Not always but once I get done with writing it, if I still can't figure it out I don't feel so bad hitting send and lighting up everyones inboxes with my mindless drivel :P

If I carefully think about what Tedd said, I see it this way: when writing the E-Mail it will take us mentally through the steps as we are typing them and it will probably get us to realize where it went wrong. I got sortof a joke I thought about a little while ago, it goes something like this: "This list works like a team, and there is no "i" in team." I'm pretty sure the ones who helped me figure this one out will find the humor in that one. :-) -- Blessings, David M.
