in thread "Sticky" nodes

A) You're missing the whole point, BUU. The idea is have less nodes, not more. In the specific case of perl editors we would shrink from nine nodes to one. In the modules case probably more...

B) As I already said, Q&A should be used in another way, if my idea "sticks"...

my ($author_nickname, $author_email) = ("DaWolf","erabbott\@terra.com.br") if ($author_name eq "Er Galvão Abbott");

    And you missed my point. Sure the number of repeated nodes would theoretially shrink, but where are all these sticky nodes going to be displayed? At the top of each section? Thats my point. If we have thirty sticky nodes at the top of each section, it would take a while to get to the non-sticky nodes, ya? And 30 nodes is small, I could easily see 100+ nodes being 'sticky'. And of course everyone has their own ideas on what should be sticky. Which is why we have the Q&A.
