True, everybody does this whether they admit it or are even aware of it or not. But this is a first impression, opposing impressions (such as of the *actual* intelligence of a person) may follow. Nothing interesting about it, just painfully shortsighted. I mean, I'm all for some level of generalization (all Americans are fascist pigs!) because without some level you can never think in terms larger than your immediate environment (unless you're a supercomputer, in which case you should be banned because bots aren't allowed to post), but rejecting someones education of choice because of their appearance is not just generalization, this is blind willful ignorance of an individuals capabilities based on a generalization.

Of course the brutish looking people are stealing all our jobs and women, so I guess it is allowed out of pure spite.

Code: [Select]
Try typing 'str_' and then hitting 'Ctrl + Space Bar', code hint??
Very cool, I somehow missed this part of what you wrote, but I tried it out. Is there a way to make that automatic? ctrl+spacebar is not very fast.

Yes there is, open Notepad++;

Settings -> Preferences

Go to the 'Backup / Auto-Completion' tab.

You can configure your settings from there. I tend to check 'Enable auto-completion on each input', select 'Function completion', 'From the 1th character' and check 'Function paramaters hint on input'.
I like starting my code with session_start();

Code: [Select]
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);

wow i just looked at the results and i'm surprised so many people here use DreamWeaver.

i haven't strayed from vim. i've tried many other editors but vim is still so flexible. it can do anything i want it to.

The poll has been here for over 4 years. It's unlikely to be representative right now.

Maybe you should close it, unsticky, and restart with a link to this? I agree the current value of the results is pretty close to 0.

+1

And possibly advertise it on the phpfreaks homepage? (or one of those "the administrator requires you to read this post before continuing browsing this forum" would get more results) im rather curious as to what the current day result would be.
But and here is the big but... I am dumb... lol
