Mark, my post was really not intended to be discouraging, as others
have pointed out. Folks on this list can correct your mistakes for
u--the key is do u know *why* we quote something as opposed to when
quoting isn't necessary, for example.
I'm just sayin I think you're tryin' to do calculus when u haven't
yet passed algebra, as it were. Every house has to have a
foundation--that also applies to learning. I can't speak for all on
list, but I think most of us on this list would love it if u wrote
something like:
I'm in chapter x of the basics of scripting manual. My assignment is
y, & I'm struggling w/the following code. Having those on list correct
your code only serves to foster continued dependence, *until* u learn
the basics--at which point u can then say, "o, yeah--it's a string--of
course it would have to have quotes". At that point, it serves as a
learning tool. See the difference?
I personally really want u to learn. I think others on list share that
sentiment. But start on the first stair--don't try to take 5 at a
time. Get the foundations down, & b4 long, you'll be helpin others on
this list.

Blame the computer--why not? It can't defend itself & occasionally
might even be the culprit
