It should be obvious that I referred to this discussion!

Again, if you arent of any help, whats the purpose of your postings?

Wasn't obvious to me, but I get your point now.

I don't need a purpose to be posting here, but if you need a reason
for my postings: they may have been of help to people who don't read
alt.html and would give you the same answers as you've been given
there already.

If you want to ask the same question in a new group, it's nice to
actually refer to the other thread, so that whoever is interested, can
read up on what solutions have already been given/tried/dismissed.

I am sorry, but your postings were rather complaints than actual
"responses".

Again, if you dont know an answer then its perfectly okay, but
complaining doesnt help.

That might be true.

Complaints? I was only clarifying what Barbara already mentioned,
namely that there was already a thread active on this subject in
alt.html.

I didn't complain, but even if I felt like complaining, it doesn't
matter that it doesn't help.

This is not a helpdesk. Pay me about two thousand euros and I'll help you. I'll
even call you 'Sir' for that money. Laugh behind your back, but call you in your

face what ever you need to be happy and feel all superior and all.

Posting contents, questions and all remotely related, get discussed in here by
who ever feels a need to bud in. If you have a question and it does get answered

somewhere in the dynamics of the ongoing discussions, well, lucky you. But
answering to your specific demands is not why people participate in this
newsgroup.
