No, more PHP would increase the strain on the server. However in this
case since I can do it in the JavaScript it works alright...not
especially relevant since my sites don't work like traditional sites,
I use virtual pages so you never actually leave the same page and so
nothing is ever needlessly reloaded...so unless someone was going to
my site, leaving my site and coming back again 7 or 8 times in a row
it'd be kind of a moot point. That's what I love about you though lil
Richie, you always bitch about the most inane fuckwitted lil things
that don't even really matter...but that's okay, I enjoy using your
over critical analysis for my own personal benefit. ^_^
