allright... I admit it. I.... well... I use php (http://www.bbspot.com/News/2000/6/php_suspend.html). :eek: Please don't tell my parents about it, they'd be horrified.

lol... what is this world coming to? we can't even teach our kids to read...

as for php, I've experimented with it (shhhh), but I can't afford to pay for it if it becomes a habit.

getting them to run cgi scripts might be a touch harder as i'm finding

intermediate c++ skills should be tought at the age of 7 tho so we can keep pace with technology, a full and indepth understanding of computer architecture and quantum mechanics should be routine by the age of 9.

we need a big effort if we're going to advance the human race any more

Starting C at age seven seems like an okay idea, but that might be a little too early... I'd suggest fluency in BASIC by age six, HTML by seven, and C by nine. :)
