Re: Exiting Functions

*sigh* I feel pretty dumb for not thinking to try that.

Anyway, what do you mean "learn to cross-post"?

Cross-post: put multiple newsgroups in the To: line rather than sending
the same message multiple times to different groups (Multi-posting)

Re: Exiting Functions

Okay. What is the difference in effect?

The difference is simple. I'm assuming you posted to alt.?.php and
comp.lang.php. None of these responses are showing up in the other
newsgroup. If you had cross-posted, the responses would have showed up
in all newsgroups, thus helping the denizens of all the newsgroups.

Re: Exiting Functions

Thanks. That sounds very reasonable.

Top posting is what you just did - posting at the top of the message. Most
peopleT consider it proper to post your reply at the bottom, so that people
can read what you are replying to first.

Also, standard filters for news readers can save us having to read the
cross-postings in more than one target group. Not so easy with
multiple postings.

And, Considerate-Posting is working your way thought the article,
adding your comments in context.
.....whilst also trimming unnecessary material.

Then, there's at least 2 styles of (prominent) Clueless-Posting:

1. Where some bonehead does a (R)eply in a running thread to
start a brand new topic.

2. Where some bonehead creates a new posting with the
"Subject: Thanks" and the body something like:
"That did it. It's better now."

And, there's the ever `popular` Lazy Postings that could be
answered with as much, or even less, time and effort spent with
Google:

usenet "top posting" - Google Suche
