Why be so harsh on people who are on their way to learning? Why assume, automatically, that new people are lazy and selfish? When I first came here in 2002 I knew almost nothing about coding, and several of the 'smarter' members here were very kind and polite to me, and helped me out, and I was very grateful. A little kindness and patience goes a long way.

That is me. I knew nothing when I came into this. I thought I did; but I didn't. But I learned. I read books and studied. I'm by no means an expert on PHP but I can figure some stuff out.

I think the problem is people wanting to be walked through it instead of being helped to learn it.
