Re: [Phptest-users] An Idea for extra answers

[Tom Wilson]

Hey, I think you got it. Good thing I asked before I spent a day figuring 
this out.
I certainly wouldn't mind helping out with PT although I am not a scripting 
genius at anything, I'm actually a network tech with a programming hobby. 
I'm just an average joe who can get the job done, lots of hair pulling 
sometimes, but I eventually get it. This is my first 'real' php project I am 
doing, I usually work in Perl and then really only in a network tech, need 
perl script to do this/do that sort of way although I like to dabble :) 
hence the effort I'm putting into PT. I have some Perl stuff if you want to 
look at that. I am learning as I go, as we always do, and eventually want to 
convert all my wonderful Perl stuff to PHP just for something to do and 
maybe learn something along the way!

Cheers!
