oi! Who --reputation my response above? I was thanking and complimenting him...
I didn't see your "response above" (you may have hyperlinked it for maximum reliability and precision!) so in particular I didn't downvote™ it, but I sometimes/often (depending on a wide variety of parameters) do with posts that just "thank and compliment someone..." if I feel that they do not otherwise increase the signal/noise ratio of a thread. OTOH I much more probably downvote nodes like this one, which whine about nodes being downvoted: most people actually do! To be fair, trust me: we all passed through it. You'll learn not to care! But if you're truly, sincerely, authentically interested to know why a particular node of yours is being downvoted - and it happens to me too after some years up to this day, then I suggest you ask so in a clearly marked up update to the node itself: it has worked for me, sometimes. HTH!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
