I showed him up on at least three occasions to not have a clue about
that which he spouts. Quoting his beloved manuals that he studies at
night back to him.
Jerry doesn't like to be shown to be an ignorant pompous asshole. If you
grovel at his feet, he will graciously feed him tidbits of wisdom.
If you dare contest his ownership of the group, you are the spawn of the
devil.
It's a psychological condition he has. Right Man syndrome.
He wants desperately to be a Guru, but he's not good enough so he *acts*
like he is one, and hopes no one will come along who can see through him.
Sadly I did.
What pains him worse, is that I don't even want to be a guru. Its
somehow makes his puny ambitions seem like..puny ambitions.
I mean. look at the response above. The guy wants to know how to frame
an onclick statement to call up some javascript in a drupal framwork.
Jerry says 'no one would ever use javascript, and that's typical of TNP'
But sadly the OP wanted to know how to use javascript.
He has to change the subject and set up a straw man to recover his
godlike status. In his own eyes.
to anyone else, he just makes himself look like what he is. From time to
time I goad him a little so everyone with any intelligence can see the
asshole for what he is: the rest still think he wonderful, but then they
deserve him.
I killfiled him years ago.I never even as a PHP beginner found anything
he said was not said better, more helpfully and more politely by someone
else. In my lurking here, he has criticised everybodies code. I never
saw him post a line of his own. He is I believe a one man IT training
consultant. You can look up his company records and see how much he has
earnt in the last few years. Its very sad.
