So according to your logic I should be asking all my Windows questions
in a C programming newsgroup because Windows was programmed in C.
Horse Hockey.
Sure, I've used third party scripts. But when I need help with those
scripts, I go to the right place - the support structure for those
scripts. And when I am looking for recommendations for those types of
scripts, I go to the right place - somewhere people who actually use
those scripts hang out.
Just because a script is written in PHP does not mean this is a good
place to ask - despite the desires of idiots like you who would like to
make it so.

Or recommend he find the right place to ask - which is a MUCH BETTER
answer.
Where would he get a better answer - a place where MAYBE one or two
people have used a script, or a place where there are dozens or even
hundreds of people who use them every day?

If I had a good answer, I would have told him. But that still doesn't
mean this is the right place to look.

How about Googling some? Just because he (and you) haven't taken the
time to find a better place doesn't mean this is a good place to ask.

He's asking about scripts written in PHP in a PHP programming group.
And asking about Windows in a C programming newsgroup is an exact
comparison. But idiots can't understand such a simple concept.

Which would be best asked in a BBS newsgroup. And followed up in the
support structure for specific bulletin boards to understand how they
can be incorporated in your scripts.

Stop trolling and learn why there are tens of thousands of newsgroups
out there. Just because you're too lazy or too stoopid to search for
the proper place to ask some questions doesn't mean the rest of us have
to put up with your crap.
