Re: Read/write file in CGI Perl

Why are people nowadays on Perlmonks being so accommodating to individuals that are posting requirements without any code?

Perlmonks is here to help you write code and fix problems in that code; not to do your work for you. In the future please post your actual code or ask for online links to resources where you can learn more about the Perl language and/or about programming in general.

I don't think this thread is too "accommodating" - the replies so far are pretty much "here's some documentation to read", which I think is appropriate for the level of effort the OP showed, and "online links to resources" is what you suggest anyway, right? I wouldn't require someone to post code to get some initial help. Personally, if the OP doesn't show code, I don't usually post code. If the OP posts a short question, I usually post a short answer. If the OP doesn't show any effort at all, I often don't reply at all.	[reply]

Why are people nowadays on Perlmonks being so accommodating to individuals that are posting requirements without any code? For the same reason they're accommodating to people posting in the wrong section?	[reply]
