Actually This paricular can of worms has been discussed *WAY* too often already. Check the archives. We've already split off a half-dozen lists, to varying degress of success... For sure, there are far too many INSTALL and WINDOWS questions here in GENERAL, when there's perfectly good lists for those questions! What *DOES* work well in my limited experience is regional lists set up by PHP User Groups... Anybody else experience this or have an alternate experience? Respond off-list please. I'll summarize. Frequent Posters of questions that are in the manual usually figure out how to work the manual sooner or later. If you can't handle the volume, consider using news://news.php.net or set up some filters in your email client to weed out the crap. PS Once upon a time, a long time ago, I was just as bad as the people being publicly berated. Cut them some slack, email them off-line to explain how to work the system to their advantage, and let's get back to work :-) -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out?
