| >>so you lied when you said you were redirected just fine...bullshit!

| What are you talking about??? You totally lost me on that one.

"... other than saying that my validation could be FAR more graceful. It
validated fine for me."

you meant that it 'validated' fine for you as long as everything went well.
you cannot say there is any truth to the quote since you obviously have not
prepared anything yet to handle when errors occur. you don't have your
er.htm or error.htm pages yet. 'it validated fine for me' is simply
bullshit. i should have made the context more clear.

| I did, sorry if it didn't make any sense. Did you learn php by solely
| reading the manual?

i get a 'beginning <insert language/activity here>'. then i look at examples
(like the one i gave you). then i look at the functions used in the
examples. i look up the functions used either in my 'beginning <insert
language/activity here>'. if i cannot find them, i look them up in a manual.
the whole point being to learn what they do and to see how someone employed
them.

no, i did not learn php by solely reading the manual. i have however,
learned at least two other languages in precisely that manner...there are
not a whole lot of friendly books or examples for ladder logic for plc's,
nor is there inexpensive materials available for tlc/tk. if you work in
manufacturing, thermal transfer printers and other periferal devices on the
production line have their own languages and even protocols. in all of these
instances, the manual is all you have.

i don't care to whom it refers, i hate its use. to believe it true simply
because you can make the word into a witicism is the definition of
conventional wisdom - always convenient, never wise, hardly ever hinting at
a truth.

| Steve, what is your deal? I'm really beginning to think you need to
| get laid. Come down for a weekend and I'll hook you up with some
| local lady friends. I didn't come on here to insult you, I came here
| for help so please quit with the bashing.

i have different tones here. i can tell when someone has done as much as
they can to understand something, and when they haven't. couple your
'haven't' with complaints that no one showed you, in code, how to properly
validate in your script...well, you leave me with an impression of being
lazy. not only have you been told, in english, why your script is a security
risk, but you've also been told, in english, how to fix it. i even gave you
code (that you did NOT RTFM about) that removes most of the risk. impression
confirmed.

tell you what, you quit being lazy...i'll quit bashing.
