RE: [cobalt-users] Re-Directing users on a 404 error

>>I suppose your flaming me didn't waste any energy then.

Dan, I appreciate what those here who know how to do this stuff do when they point us in the right direction but are you aware of how many answers flow right over the heads of the beginners here (counting myself in that group)

I don't think I flamed you.. I made what was an honest suggestion. Which was, that the time spent in making your point, that being, that it irritates you when people ask questions that you feel are answered in the archives, *could* be spent actually telling someone how to do the process...

I searched the archives... read the directives and am, maybe, a bit closer to being ready to attempt to make the changes to get the stupid cobalt generated "file not found" message changed..

And no, I don't feel my message was wasted time. I felt the need to make a suggestion, you spent enough time in responding to that question with the same sort of answer that I suggested was "less than helpful" than it it would have taken to explain it to those of us who simply don't get it.

I don't think by reading the list and my postings that you will find that I pop a qestion to the group as soon as I think of it. I do spend hours reading the archives and have gotten some VERY helpful hand holding by some of the members off list.

I will, however, stand corrected if that will let us discontinue this back and forth discussion, it will serve no purpose.. 

You are entitled to your opinion and most certainly are free to answer questions in whatever manner you feel is helpful to the list.
