What's the hype with popups? I hate the friggin' things. I fail to see
(exceptions excluded) the benefit of having a popup. If you must, don't
look at PHP for it. Javascript is what you're after.

Is there a project you are working on making you ask a load of questions
about every day? The majority of your posts could simply be answered by:
use google and/or RTFM.

It's quite easy to lose sympathy/support here, it's getting a bit
annoying to see people bypassing the normal route: doing their own
homework and search the net or a manual for answers before falling back
on usenet.

Maybe a good primer on PHP is what you really need most right now.
Don't mean to be rude, but please don't abuse the group just because
it's easy to.
