are u saying you don't know how to use classes and objects? Or instantiate/create references to classes? If yes, then i would recommend reading up on OOP a little...

I.explore.code 5-Aug-13 5:16am View

can you put the rest of page mark-up on here as well? i have just tried with your code and it seems to work..something else must be amiss.

I.explore.code 5-Aug-13 4:18am View

have you tried Googling for this? i would be surprised if you did but didn't get any relevant results. This is a pretty common problem and has hundreds of posts on the matter. Obviously your DropDownList is meant to be "trigger" (hint).

I.explore.code 24-Apr-13 6:50am View

did you put a breakpoint on that line and see whats null? unfortunately, CodeProject doesn't have the feature to put a breakpoint on code posted on here!

generally, MS Office won't be or shouldn't be installed on servers so my solution is independent of Interop. What if you deploy your website to a server that doesn't allow installing office? your functionality won't work. don't make your application dependent on things like interop.

I.explore.code 23-Apr-13 6:19am View

Not sure about this, but can you try this: $("input[attr-identity=fluPhoto]").attr('value', '');

I.explore.code 23-Apr-13 5:46am View

can you explain what exactly you are trying to achieve (perhaps add some code to your question)? may be using session for that isn't such a good idea?

I.explore.code 23-Apr-13 4:47am View

Can you please improve your question a bit? if you are using session for authentication and opening the authenticated page in a different tab of the same browser, then this is the expected behavior as the session cookie still exists on the computer for that browser and is valid. Try using a different browser to open the copy and pasted url and see if that opens up.

I.explore.code 12-Apr-13 18:39pm View

have you been able to make any headway into your problem? if yes, can you please post your code here so specifics can be talked? if not, then we would like to see some code before we can comment.

I.explore.code 12-Apr-13 18:37pm View

did you try moving the @Html statement inside the loop and see if that works?

I.explore.code 12-Apr-13 18:35pm View

well, traditionally silverlight controls are as a matter hosted in an ASPX page if you are making a Silverlight web app. You would generally have one host page that you show various silverlight screens. If you need more specific info, you would have to elaborate on the question.

I.explore.code 20-Feb-13 6:57am View

its obviously an issue with the multi-threading code you have. for some reason, the locking is not working i.e. one thread is trying to read some data that the other thread was meant to write but couldn't get to it due to contention and hence the "no data present" error. IMO atleast.

I.explore.code 29-Jan-13 9:41am View

you would rarely get something thats exactly to your needs, you would always have to customise a little bit to get it to do what you want it to do. I haven't ahd a look at the source code myself but I am sure you can create custom events and attach an event handler that would execute when something get rescheduled. This is the joy of programming, you can create what you want.

I.explore.code 29-Jan-13 8:40am View

cheers! :) makes sense to pick up an open source thing rather than re-inventing the wheel, doesn't it? and then may be you can customise it for your needs.

I.explore.code 29-Jan-13 8:34am View

you can try their open source version here : Open source daily scheduler for some inspiration.

I.explore.code 9-Jan-13 9:43am View

did you set your start page in Visual Studio? right click on the page in your Visual Studio solution and click on "set as start page" and see if that solves your problem.

Looks like that "someone" has never heard of DataSet or List or any other advanced collections .NET has to offer. Unless, you intend to call this code via a service call for an AutoCompleteExtender control but even then the signature would be wrong.

I.explore.code 1-Jan-13 6:26am View

did you try setting the EnablePartialRendering property to true on your script manager control?

I.explore.code 12-Nov-12 8:44am View

I.explore.code 7-Nov-12 15:36pm View

can you post your markup, more importantly your CSS for the relevant page?

I.explore.code 7-Nov-12 15:34pm View

I would check to see if JS is enabled on IE9!

I.explore.code 7-Nov-12 4:40am View

well then, give writing your combo box a go and see where you get. If you get stuck at some point, you can always come here.

I.explore.code 6-Nov-12 11:46am View

implement your own combo box by inheriting from the default one. And then use a check-box list instead of the default single selection list. But why go through the pain, when there is already pre-built stuff out there for you to use?

I.explore.code 2-Nov-12 8:42am View

What have you tried yourself? Mind sharing your code?

I.explore.code 2-Nov-12 8:33am View

did you try Googling it? I am sure these kinds of problems are not new and someone must have posted something like that on the internet.

I.explore.code 1-Nov-12 7:44am View

Can you post the relevant markup and code behind too? Also, you shouldn't set ValidateRequest to false its not advisable to do that for security purposes.

I.explore.code 31-Oct-12 9:08am View

just to confirm, did you try putting the toolkitscriptmanager in your master page and see if that works?

I.explore.code 30-Oct-12 9:56am View

within the tenets of n-tier architecture, yes, its an acceptable amount of code to be written in the presentation layer infact, this is the minimum you will need. If you use MVC style, things would be a lot different. Glad I could help mate!

I.explore.code 30-Oct-12 5:58am View

are you getting any errors? or any odd behavior?

I.explore.code 25-Oct-12 17:03pm View

can you please post the markup of your grid view?

I.explore.code 24-Oct-12 6:41am View

ofcourse!

I.explore.code 23-Oct-12 8:30am View

why do u want to do that? You will surely get a null pointer because JS code would run before the server side has a chance to run and would try to populate values in controls that don't yet exist.

I.explore.code 22-Oct-12 7:12am View

Put a break point on the button click event and debug it using "F10" key on your keyboard!

I.explore.code 22-Oct-12 7:06am View

Here you go, full solution! Session Coding complete

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 9:21am View

apparently that will help you understand how to create an instance with inline initialisation of properties? if not then perhaps you need to ask specific question than "I'm not getting the 3rd line of this code".

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 7:12am View

Perfect! you are welcome mate! Happens to all of us, sometimes the solution is too simple to be obvious right away!

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 6:24am View

fair enough then, I have put it back! although there is not a drastic difference from yours.

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 6:21am View

can you put a break point on UploadImage() method and see if the breakpoint hits? if it does, try debugging it and see whats going on in that method.

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 6:07am View

Looks like I can't type fast enough ;) I will remove my solution then. my 5! I would use this.

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 5:57am View

Can you not use List<Task> rather than an Task[]? That way you can populate the List with just one loop.

I.explore.code 19-Oct-12 5:52am View

Put a breakpoint at the start of the method and debug it using "F10" key to find out where is it failing and why! Also as a suggestion, use parameterised ADO.NET queries rather than appending the values as a string.

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 11:17am View

Well, by users I meant companies that might want to use a product like this to schedule posts on Facebook for product marketing of sorts. May be based on certain analytics and stats they might wanna schedule posts for say, Christmas Eve. This would still require the server to spawn "x" number of threads each taking care of one schedule, but the question then arises "how do you make a thread poll for date and time?" is it ok to have a thread run in a while loop checking time every second to see if its time yet and if it is, then post stuff and terminate itself? Would the service need to keep track of which threads have finished and which are still running? I am only assuming that in this case data sharing among threads and hence inter-thread communication is not needed.

I am sorry its not even my question, yet I am intrigued about this problem :)

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 10:50am View

but if there are multiple users using the scheduling website, then you would have to save their schedules in a database, wouldn't you? and then somehow make the service aware that the scehdules are available and then have the service execute all those schedules without a slip. Wouldn't this require some sort of thread spawning for each schedule so that one service doesn't get overloaded with all the requests and running the risk of missing a schedule. May be I am overthinking this one, and may be there is a simpler idea. What do you reckon?

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 8:35am View

Either that or they just wanted to scoop a couple more points.

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 8:28am View

Go to W3 Schools and read about how to use html tables. If you know how to use them, then improve your question to be more specific. Just one suggestion, modern day web development doesn't use tables, use div tags instead.

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 8:24am View

If this is not meant to be a solution, please post this as a comment to solution 1 otherwise, mark your question as "solved" and close this thread.

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 8:20am View

This is not what the OP asked! Their question is specifically for ASP.NET page class.

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 8:16am View

Please don't reply to such old threads! There have been better solution than yours already posted and besides, everytime someone searches for Top Rated questions, it creates confusion to see that someone updated a thread which is actually really old.

I.explore.code 18-Oct-12 8:01am View

You're gonna have to explain a lot more than "refresh my service" to get any meaningful responses!Plus, refreshing service is not the same as refreshing your Facebook page or something. You can only re-call your service to fetch fresh data.

I.explore.code 17-Oct-12 5:36am View

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 9:56am View

I think you should redesign your forms to make the controls and their behavior less coupled. Have a Gridview that will have a Edit button template field to edit a record, a Delete button template field to delete a record and a totally separate form level button to Add new record. That way you can easily separate buttons and behaviors.
Unfortunately, this is not something you can instantly learn on a forum like this, you are gonna have to read up and do it yourself.

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 9:33am View

how do you use these modes i.e. how are your reading them? can you explain a bit more?

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 8:58am View

Create a separate class with singleton instance variable and one readonly property of type SqlConnection. Before returning the connection, check to see if it is null, if it is, instantiate it otherwise just let it return. Make sure this class can be accessed throughout your data access layer. You would need to provide the connection string to the connection instantiation code which you can probably do when the very first time your app runs.

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 8:23am View

should I count down to line 144 and then rectify your error for u? did u try to debug your code? i m sure the answer would reveal itself if u debug.

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 7:30am View

if you try debugging the code, you will find the flaw in your code. Did you? Besides why do you think you would be able to get the bytes from the Image control in ASP.NET? If you are trying to upload an image, don't you think the FileUpload control would be the right way to do it?

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 6:50am View

the simpler the better! +5

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 5:51am View

have you tried anything or something yourself first? or you thought it would just be easier if someone wrote the code for you? If you know you have to use JS then you have a very good starting point.

I.explore.code 16-Oct-12 5:35am View

Use JavaScript for client side validation and alert() JS method to show a message box.

This will give this error at runtime: Showing a modal dialog box or form when the application is not running in UserInteractive mode is not a valid operation.

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 9:50am View

Have you tried finding an idea on your own?

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 9:47am View

yeah I thought so, in that case you will have to download the files to your server/machine first and then update your database. Assuming that these XML files always contain updated data, you can download them anytime preferably at night when you know the data is not going to be used. And once the files are all downloaded then you can kick-off the database update. Does this make sense?

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 9:09am View

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 7:14am View

not something I would suggest! hence my vote of 1. Keeping the image urls in database and keeping the actual images somewhere on the hard drive and trying to synchronise them so that if the image names change it doesn't cause it not to work, is not a good practice or easy to use.

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 7:10am View

Your question is misleading because you have tagged ASP.NET but you are talking about DataGridView and WinForms. You would have to make sure what you are looking for a solution for, none of the solutions posted here are for WinForms they would only work for ASP.NET.

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 7:08am View

I would recommend using an HttpHandler instead of an aspx page. Works better if there is no UI needed to be shown and only backend processing is required.

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 6:32am View

A correction there (i m sure its just a typo): the format string should be "dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm tt". "MM" would display the month. :) FTFY.

There is a component in .NET called FileSystemWatcher that monitors a folder for any changes and raises events if any changes are made. Have a look at this article: FileSystemWatcherEx. Just a recommendation, rather than trying to sweat to update just the changes its best if you delete the previous data (if you don't need it) and re-populating your tables with the new XML files. Since it would be running at zero or low load time, it should be alright.

Also make sure that you have network path access to the folder that you want to monitor, otherwise, the FSW component wouldn't work. If you don't have network path access to the drive/folder, you would have to download the files to your server, read the file data in dataset or something, read the table data in another dataset, compare and then save the changes. This is not the full solution but an idea which you can certainly improvise upon.

I.explore.code 15-Oct-12 6:08am View

I.explore.code 12-Oct-12 10:22am View

precisely! I personally don't even prefer pop-ups, so i would use just a simple label to show that message and then redirect the user. For such a simple behavior doing a RegisterClientScriptBlock seems an overkill. +5!

You are the same person asking about the "Page level cache" problem too, aren't you? :) Anyway, in this case it really depends on how much data you are loading in your auto-complete extender and whether or not the data is coming from just one table or its being joined with several other tables and then returned. And the reason it takes only 0.5-1 secs second time on, is that it caches previously loaded results and uses them if you type in the same query string again (i.e. if you set the caching property to true). Have a look at your DB queries and the query execution plan. Optimisation problems are very specific to the system architecture and overall design, so it is difficult to come up with a general remedy.

I.explore.code 12-Oct-12 3:41am View

Also look at your db queries, see what's the execution plan is like.

I.explore.code 12-Oct-12 3:39am View

Pages load slow because of the following reasons AFAIK:
1. Lot of data that takes longer to get from the db
2. If all that load of data has to be rendered on the page in list based controls which explodes the size of the viewstate and the page thereby making it slow to render.
3. Network connection speed is slow.
Identify what is the problem in your case. Look at the requests and responses using Fiddler or Firebug, these tools can help a lot to identify where its getting messed up.

I.explore.code 12-Oct-12 3:27am View

If the page loading is slow then code is the first place I would look into. Caching is not going to improve anything, what if the cache gets invalidated at some point? You are still gonna have to reload the new page which would still be slow. Look into your code see if there is anything you can optimize there, code, data, design of the page anything. Don't cache just yet.

I.explore.code 12-Oct-12 3:13am View

What happens when you don't use page level caching? Is your page too complicated to not have it cached?

You need to improve your question to stand any chance of help! In its current state it barely makes any sense. Plus, no one here does personal favours by sending customised solutions to you e-mail id. So you can forget that. You need to read up on joins and binding composite data to controls. One hint I would give you though is, "Use extenstion methods for your objects" they are the best fit for this kind of problems.

the problem could be that flash player is not installed on your machine! but then if you successfully can watch YouTube videos, then Flash must be installed. Give it a check and make sure the html tags are well-formed.

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 15:32pm View

be polite mate!

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 15:29pm View

I am not quite sure I understand your question. What do you mean by "control selected index changed event"? Can you please use "Improve Question" to add some details? perhaps your code as well.

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 15:10pm View

Even though I have almost given you the answer (because i m in a good mood :) ). I found this by Googling myself. You should really give a problem a good try before posting on CP.

this is not a solution, please remove it from here!

There is something weird about Response.Write. It screws up the default HTTP response stream when an exception occurrs and the code does a "Response.Write" in the catch block. I try to avoid it anyway.

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 11:20am View

agreed!

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 10:51am View

this is why you should always have back-up of all your projects secured in an external hard-drive synced with cloud and locked away in shock-proof vault with the key embedded in your skin. Anyway, can you search for "*.aspx" first in your solution folder and if unsuccessful then in your drive? If you find them, I would recommend creating a new solution and add all of them into it.

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 10:47am View

what do you mean by "External web site" exactly? can you give an example of what you want?

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 8:49am View

ok this might sound too onerous, but can you change all the tables to divs? not sure if that is causing the problem, but divs are much easier and flexible to work with. Using tables is anti-web these days.

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 8:24am View

you mean the breakpoints are not getting hit when you debug your application? If you are getting a yellow exclamation mark on your breakpoints and if you hover over them it will tell you that it wasn't able to load debug dymbols. Try cleaning your solution and rebuilding it.

Can you check whats the value set on EnablePartialRendering property of the ToolkitScriptManager?

I.explore.code 10-Oct-12 6:37am View

can you post your markup and codebehind please? so we can see whats actually going on.

I would not want to "share my life" on CP, thanks very much! :)

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 10:14am View

Add some error logging in your catch block and write the StackTrace to a file on your server. That should give details of any server side errors that might be happening, although, this error is a JavaScript error which probably is happening due to something not rendering properly. Make sure you don't any unterminated string constants in your markup or config file.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 10:01am View

Have you tried anything yourself? Can you show us your code? This is very basic stuff and internet is littered with basic tutorials that teach you how to connect to the database in ASP.NET and retrieving and updating data. Because for your problem, that's all you really need.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 9:58am View

Thanks for that quick tutorial on "How to use Code Project"! Except that it would have done you some good if u had read that tutorial yourself and tried something yourself first before posting your question here and expecting someone else to do your work for you. No wonder you haven't recieved a real solution yet. Good luck finding one with this attitude.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 8:20am View

I am not sure the question is really clear. Do you mean you want to send the html markup of the registration page to another page? if so, why? What exactly you are trying to achieve?

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 8:18am View

1) Press "Print Screen" to capture a screenshot and save the image file to your computer
2) upload this file to the server and then read the bytes from that file to render on your web page.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 7:56am View

what have u tried so far?

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 5:06am View

Config seems fine. Can you also check your IIS settings (authentication related) for me? Make sure that's set to Windows as well.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 4:12am View

do you have Firebug installed or Fiddler? If not, i recommend installing them and see what is happening with the request and response cycle. Most likely it would be a 500-Internal Server Error. You can also set the <customerrors mode="Off"> under <system.web> section of your config file to render the error on page. Also, there is a maximum limit default set by Microsoft on how many controls u can render on a page.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 4:05am View

can you post your web.config settings here? I think the error is quite self-explanatory, the credentials i.e. username and password are wrong. DO make sure that's not the case.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 4:02am View

what do u have against jquery? it IS javascript afterall...only much easier to work with. You can easily use toggle() and slide functions to achieve the desired effect.

I.explore.code 9-Oct-12 1:09am View

Awesome! You are welcome!

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 17:30pm View

I know its probably not the best parallel, but I am thinking the way chat applications work say on facebook. Basically, its a server socket program that's sat listening at a specific port, clients (aka gamers) connect to that server address and start sending messages i.e. playing game.

The server socket creates a tunnel directly with each client and also keeps a track of which clients are still in the game. Thinking of Texas Poker on Facebook. Once you have a sessioned tunnel created, you can use customised commands sent over TCP/IP to cause a certain action to happen. I would really love to see what others have to say on this.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 16:49pm View

Precisely! Even though its a hell of a lot easier to just use the tool that you are comfortable with but when faced with a problem of a greater scale that tool might just not work. So yes you've got to adapt! :) Its amazing, how many programmers read about Zen and Samurais.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 16:28pm View

Perfect! thanks!

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 16:25pm View

Thanks! Well, I believe in "best tools for the job" so its my moral imperative that I am as all-encompassing as possible. As a 16th century Samurai warrior once said, "fixation is death, fluidity is life". :)

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 15:55pm View

looks like I am the only one who gave a more balanced approach! :) Although Sergey, my views on PHP sort of resonate with your previous comments on PHP, if you remember.

EDIT: Just waiting for a PHP guy to pop up and start hurling grenades at the .NET camp.

That ladies and gents, is called parametrized replying! :) "would it be better to learn {0}"...Brilliant!

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 15:47pm View

hahaha! that sounded like such a marketing for ASP.NET!

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 15:10pm View

You are missing this: ClientIDMode="Static" property for textboxes and the button. What this property does is tell the server to use the ID that has been provided for e.g. "btnFU" rather than generating its own at runtime when the page is rendered. Since you have not included that property, jQuery cannot find btnFU because its been rendered with an autogenerated ID that looks something like "ctl001_$blahblah". If you put this property back in both the text boxes and the button, it should work.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 14:35pm View

can you post your code in the comments? i will take a look.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 13:20pm View

:) you're welcome! Glad could help! i just noticed code project seems to have added "xmlns:asp:#unknown" to my ASP.NET markup. I hope you haven't copied that too, that just seems to be some gibberish. If indeed you have copied that too, try removing it and see if it works then.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 10:31am View

are u getting any errors or exceptions?

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 10:26am View

I generally try not to be arsy about such questions but some times questions are worth just that. LOL.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 10:13am View

funny, i don't even get the "open link in new page" option in my right click menu. I only get it when i change the href of the rendered tag in Firebug to point to the page I want it to open from the original __doPostBack() that is the default that happens when u click a button. Can you show your markup and server side C#?

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 10:02am View

just found out that it is.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 9:58am View

is that a MySQL driver property? i.e. using ? instead of @?

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 9:43am View

try using something like GIMP or Photoshop?

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 9:42am View

WOW! how very convenient, right? Just slap on a barely sensible statement instead of a specific problem and the command the CodeProject minions to write the code for you and paste it up. Fantastic! I would recommend sending this as an offshore project to either China or India or try vworker.com. Unless, you show us what you have done yourself to solve it and are stuck with something specific.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 9:32am View

if you are asking about snail-mail then yes, its possible. The postal department won't ask for a username and password. If you are asking about e-mails, the no. For sending an e-mail you would need your own username and password to login to the e-mail client and send an e-mail.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 9:29am View

never ever again do this, asking code to be e-mailed to you. This is not a place where we do your homework for you. You have got to try things for yourself first and then come back here with specific problems with code that you tried and it didn't work. Above all, always try Google first.

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 8:56am View

u can try using jQuery selectors to read height and width from the controls and then use the css function to apply that width and height to the image. See if that works, coz its been a while since i last used something like that so its really just off the top of my head. Give that a go and i will see if i can find something better but don't count on it :)

I.explore.code 8-Oct-12 8:46am View

can you not render the image in a default sized div first and then let the user resize the image/div? I suppose that will be easier to achieve and would not really need any server side interactions.

I.explore.code 6-Oct-12 19:47pm View

JSON is just a data format which would need to be parsed by DOM processing that you would then display in a grid view.

I.explore.code 4-Oct-12 10:47am View

by coding it! :)

I.explore.code 4-Oct-12 8:40am View

generally ASP.NET, IIS and SQL Server handle all such issues internally i.e. simulatenous updating of database. Unless, a really fine grained control over the timing and sequencing of operations is needed in which case you would have to lock the resource being updated so that no one else can change it during that time. Unfortunately, thats all I can say from the limited information present in your question.

I.explore.code 3-Oct-12 13:53pm View

You have been the top expert on CP for a quite a while mate, it will catch up with you at some point. ;). Unfortunately, its not a code problem but more of a website configuration under IIS problem.

I.explore.code 3-Oct-12 4:21am View

Fair points. I just like to use whatever tools are needed to get the jobe done and get it done right. Anyway, I was wondering if you could take a look at this question of mine that I posted a day ago but there hasn't been any response yet. http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/468988/Error-in-ASP-NET-website-set-up-as-a-virtual-direc. It will be really awesome if you have got any ideas on it.

I.explore.code 3-Oct-12 3:02am View

My answer remains the same. You can't. Why would u even want to do that? C# is a brilliant server side language, use it!

I.explore.code 2-Oct-12 17:55pm View

true. I have never worked with PHP professionally but only in hobby mode so I really can't comment on whether or not you can write well-layered structured code. One of my mates who has his tech start-up uses PHP professionally and does work with MVC which is sort of a nice way to structure code (I am not sure how well PHP lends itself to such a pattern though). But yeah, I personally don't have an affection for that language merely because of its disconnectedness and lack of type-safety. But then, its not the sword that matters but who swings it that does ;).

I.explore.code 2-Oct-12 17:43pm View

@Rich: LOL :) was just browsing through the questions and found this thread.

@Sergey: you know you are probably offending dozens of PHP fan-boys out here *nervously looks around and speaks in a hushed tone* ;). I am not one of them btw.
