This is how to deal with 17 calls a day.
Reminds me of my favorite method of dealing with calls pertaining to appeals for money for charities: "The welfare office disapproves of my spending my allowance that way." The caller usually says they're sorry and hangs up quickly.

Somewhat related, at least in my little mind:
Whenever I sign up for something on the web that I think is likely to end up sending me spamlike sales messages, I like to use funny fake names, like "Professor Chumwright." It tickles me to see messages come to me addressed as, "Dear Professor..." |

I just read the whole thread, found it hilarious. Glad to hear that Zinc was pleased with the end result.

At last, I found my personal holy grail!
My grail quest was how to accomplish inline updating of database table rows with Classic ASP through the use of Ajax. I was very frustrated by lack of examples that were sufficiently dumbed down enough for me.
This is no doubt very ho-hum stuff for benj, but he has kindly humored me about this stuff before, and I think Baffy will understand how satisfying it is to solve a problem like this.
I kept returning to the problem off and on over the past year, because it fascinated me so much. I came up with a half-way satisfactory solution, but wanted more/better.
Finally, with my son's help, we got this solution: Inline Edit for Classic ASP with Ajax.
At last, I am content! I shall fall asleep with a big grin on my face. |

I would be the same way about the Flash you work with. But, one of the reasons I like Classic ASP is because it seems so similar to English. benj has assured me that it will likely continue to be supported by IIS for perhaps another ten years and by then I plan to be retired from web coding. I wonder what technologies we'll be using by then? |

Yeah I think that's because a lot of Westerners struggle to understand that some people/cultures are quite happy to put a lot of extra effort and time into making something look good. I.e, it's beyond their comprehension that people would make something like rice field pictures unless there was money involved, therefore it must be fake. |
