what do you think we can do with your second post? pure code without any explanation ? cancel it ?

[josri]

Hi,

First of all would like to Thank the Testlink Community for providing this wonderful tool and that too opensource.

I realize that I didn't write any explanation in my second post. I was so excited it worked and thought of sharing my code in the forum late in the night. In my first post, I have explained what wasn't working. In my second post, I have marked it as "SOLVED" and have put out the code that I used to make it work. I think, it's self-explanatory.

I feel the response to be a little rude. People come to this forum to get help and share their knowledge. I didn't spam. You can very well see that the code is related to testlink and it has comments in it too as to what the code is doing. If you feel that you needed more explanation, you could have asked that politely. I see that you are one of the administrator and you need to respect people who are trying to help. You also have to understand people using forums are from different background.

Canceling the post is not going to do anything other than killing the forum's purpose.

Thank you
Jo

We can start a long an useless discussion and is OK.,
I respect people, and I have just asked what do you think we can do with the post you have done.
I've no time to guess what the code is or a diffe bewteen two posts.
Then do just one thing:
remember that you do not write for yourself but for other people => code without any kind of clear explanation is useless.
