  1. Argh! What a crap page - no indication in right list of your current page, no next/previous buttons, descriptions with no links, arghhasfdafsd

  2. Tom, I could comment that your site is entirely dull, but that would be missing the point completely, as would complaining that cocacola.com doesn't seem too hot in Lynx. Why not also comment about the fact that HÃ¥vard's English isn't perfect? The idea of the article is just to give an idea (from a programmer's perspective) of some new features in php5. I saw it a week or so back and thought is was worth looking at for info. Matt. :-)

  3. My site is very dull, and has pretty much no navigation. I've been pondering what to do about it. And yes, the information on the article is excellent. However it is poorly presented to the point that I got totally lost within it.

    And yet you felt it necessary to type it into the comment box and hit the submit button? Hmm.

    As you obviously did miss the point, I'll make it more explicit. It may be a good article, but it's frustrating to read when it doesn't offer the basic interface elements supplied by virtually every other article on the web.
