You came for the same reason many others of us came to these groups... To
LEARN.

It's hard to listen to the pros (as most believe themselves to be) slap you
down, but if you learn a little bit from those actually trying to help
(without the slap), and ignore the slappers (unless they actually give some
help), you can make your site better and easier to manage. I found that some
newsgroup people can be quite ... nasty ... to newbies and those they
believe are wrong.

Give any of the methods offered a try. The first time you have to make a
change TO ONLY ONE FILE rather than all the pages on your site, no matter
how few they are, and it works, you will know why.

And remember, elitists, not all people know or find it easy to learn the
things you've been doing for years. From 25 years of programming, I know you
never know it all. Many people don't have the time or money to take classes,
and it seems few read books any more (it's easier to find answers on the
'net). There will always be rookies. If you want to make the web
"standard-compliant", quit calling people names on their first few posts. I
know many people have very satirical and biting humor. Wait until you get to
know whether they really are dumb-sh-ts, a--holes, or some of the more
sophisticated names I've seen, before you call them on it. And, make sure
they know if you're joking. Try being a little lighter for a while.
