        For the second like do you really mean lick? It's people like (not lick) you that are an embarassment to Australia and it's spelling. Or at least to me, when I can no longer take the moral high ground over all them Yanks and Canucks thanks to you. The beer drinking was bad enough. You being capable of 1 has left people like me having to drink 13 (like tonight, when the missus told me it better be a quite one with me in bed early (does 02:45 count)) to keep the Aussie average up.

          WTF Of The Day in coding, a WTF is a really obvious mistake, or really poor logic. I think this is the site that made the term famous: http://thedailywtf.com/[^]

          That's the site-that-shall-not-be-linked. The guy who runs it has a poor opinion of the Code Project, and isn't shy about expressing it.

            When you say quite do you really mean quiet? Aaaahhh the irony ;P Reminds me of a Black Adder quote: Black Adder: Baldric, you do know what irony is don't you? Baldric: Yeah, it's like goldy and bronzy except made of iron :laugh:

              OK. Now you mention it I remember some controversy a few months ago about something on that site about CP.

                Especially database columns, which I'm sure many people have issues with - e.g. row["fName"], which still compiles when someone renames the column to FirstName; which I sometimes avoid by doing this: row[db.Schema.FirstName].

                  I like reading www.dailywtf.com every so often, but I did find Alex's comments ill-mannered.

                    Didn't Steve Jobs say, "We made the buttons look so good you would want to lick them"? So, the Mac has the command "onlick"!;P

                    Cool... so I'll leave my code intact, and all there is to do is eliminate every Windows PC from the world :sigh:

                      But that should result in a compiler error because the variable s is not known outside the loop, shouldn't it?

                      Yes, I'm sorry my Firefox IDE didn't pick that up. Just an example anyway.

                        ok this is mine... I'm embarrassed to post this but here goes: BtnSubmit.Attributes.Add("onlick", "disableSubmit()"); I'm wondering why on hell it's not disabling the button... when I suddenly spot my typo :doh: DOH! Somehow I don't think the button is going to be licked any time soon! :laugh:
