Have you checked PHP manual? All the questions you asked are answered
in it one way or another. Most of them in first introduction chapters.
Most of basic PHP tutorials would also solve your problems.

Nope. The group is for both.

Nope. Most parse errors are easy to find if you know basic syntax of
PHP, so you should not ask about those. There may be occasions when they
are harder to find (I haven't seen such one) and then you probably could
ask about them here. In that case you should first narrow down the search
field by cutting your code to minimum which still causes the error and
give this code to the group.
Your syntax errors were very simple errors (easy to find).

Nope, but it's tempting.

Nope. But asking repeatedly same simple questions even when they were
answered is also insulting and it's insulting the whole newsgroup readers
(or at least the people who answered your questions).

If the PHP is Open Source or not is irrelevant. Yes, this group welcomes
questions, but it's not for learning/teaching basics of PHP. There are
pages and books for this.

So what? Your code sometimes tells me more about you than you would like
it to. So what?
You think that our answers are not good. You can. I think that your way
of reading answers and learning PHP is not good. I can.

This group is not for this. You may ask if PHP is better for this or
that task in this or that situation. The best way (in my private opinion)
is to ask about some PHP solution of a problem in here and about ASP
solution of the same problem on ASP group and make the decision on your own.
I wanted to write something which could be considered PHP related answer
for your PHP related question, but haven't found anything that hasn't
been already answered (in many ways) here, so I'll pass.
