>Thanks for reminding me of the word "hypocrite". I thought I was just taking your advice & pointing out the potential problems in the solution suggested by someone. If you don't remember your comment to me, then I'll remind you :

You don't seem to know the meaning of the word. You say one thing, do another. I don't.

>Second, we're not operating in a vacuum here. The original poster was not and will not be the only person to read it. Someone else, with less experience and knowledge may someday come along, and take a look, and might some dreadful design decisions based simply on the problem and the solution. It was, and is important to point out not only the solutions to problems, but any potential dangers that might exist with a given solution. In this case, the potential for later problems is quite large.

>All I was doing was pointing out "any potential dangers that might exist with a given solution".

By insulting someone? Sorry, doesn't wash. Rather than saying that there was a mistake or other error or oversight in the code, you indulge in character assasination. Rather, than posting the correct solution, you insult.

>As to the "deliberate errors", do I have to explain the concept of humour here.

There was no indication that you were attempting a humorous jibe at Ed. No emoticon, no < g > or < s >. You don't have to explain humor to me (of all people), but you really need a lesson in appropriate on-line correspondence.
