PHP Groups.

Where would a good place to go be, to get help on a download manager project.

IE - Help over AIM or MSN.

O but just one thing:

I dun't want to pay a group to make it for me. I was just wondering if there are any helpful people that are around that could be there if I have questions to ask or a script to modify.

(You may say "y not just use this forum?"....well I do use it, but I would like someone right there so that I may ask questions right on the spot, and it's much easier to explain over aim.

a lot of people in the forums here provide aim names.. like me for example see it down there? (i'm not on now cause i'm at work) i'm sure they wouldn't mind your messaging them and if they're busy i'm sure they'll tell you.. i'm not aware however of any aim support for php projects that's online all the time.

I added your AIM name...but havent seen you one. I do realize you could help...(A LOT) but I don't want to be a bug and bother you a lot.

Your so good, and I feel like I would be wasting your time.

i'm usually on AIM around 8:00pm CST or later.. during the weekdays anyway.

Ok I am in the EST timezone. -5 off GST. what is your difference?

BTW I got my first mySQL using script "finished". A guestbook using mySQL. hehe.

Hey guess what Anonymous...

this is how I read your post, you don't want to be identified so you don't register your post, you don't want to pay but you expect instant help. Well, you get what you pay for.

I've only just started looking at this forum but are active on others and I prefer to help the people who are obviously helping themselves.

Have you checked out the scripts at http://sarah.users.phpclasses.org or at sourceforge? There are alot of scripts and systems freely available - which I find so unbelievably generous.

I really have no problem with registering at all. I am thank-ful with all this great help I am recieving. The reason why I was anon. was b/c I forgot my username so I couldn't really find a way to get that emailed to me.

I never really said I wanted instant help, I just wondered if there were places around that had people you could talk to more personally.

Either way, thx for the 2 links Sarah. (And if you didn't notice, I re-registered.)

You can try the #php channel on irc.openprojects.net for more of a chat format.

I'd guess Usenet is out of the question if you want to be able to 'talk' to someone, but comp.lang.php is great for all php-related questions.
