As I have said on many occasionsOriginally posted by d000hg View PostYou should be using local, protectionist variables. Global variables allows them to come over here and benefit from our resources.

I'd be more worried about your obsesion with a convicted Peadophile.....Originally posted by EternalOptimist View PostI am beavering away on a new module, whilst checking in at CUK every half hour to browse the latest hot topics. Then I started wondering if my very coding is racialistical.
let me explain.
I use a lot of global variables on this gig and I need to know if I am in add or edit mode
so I use gAdd , which is a Boolean
after gAdd ing all morning I started to wonder if It's subconscious.
What about you ? are you also a racist coder, do you send subliminal messages through your interface"Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

(always makes me chuckle)…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
