( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

As long as people aren't going crazy with them, I don't think there's any problems with them, and in fact I rather like them.

To me, if I ask a question and someone responds with a good answer, especially if it is obvious they put a lot of time or effort into it, I generally thank them for their help.

And on the other side, when someone asks a question and I put a lot of work into writing up a thorough and complete answer, or I spend time sitting down and coming up with a solution for them, coding it out, testing it to make sure it works correctly, and then writing up an explanation for it, I greatly appreciate it when someone says thanks.

I don't expect a thank you, but I have to admit that there have been a few times where I put a lot of time into a response and never heard back from the original poster. When you do that and never get any response from the original poster (no thank you, no questions, no anything), it sometimes leave you wondering if they're actually reading it, or if you're just wasting your time.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
