Subject: Re: [xsl] How to approach the list From: Mulberry Technologies List Owner <xsl-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2005 14:27:46 -0400 |
Providing small samples is one of the three things I suggest to people who are having trouble communicating with XSL-List.
An off-list message that I have sent to quite a few of you at one time or another says:
You will improve the chances that you will receive prompt and helpful responses by:
- asking specific enough questions that answers are possible. Describe what you are trying to do, how you approached it, what happened, and why you don't like the result you got
- supplying small samples of files that illustrate your question or problem. For example, an XML file, an XSLT stylesheet, the result you got, and the result you want - all in miniature (and remembering that everything posted to XSL-List is archived in public)
- describing the topic of your question concisely in the subject line Good subject lines - those that describe the subject matter of your message - not only increase the chances that you will receive answers to questions or responses to comments, they also make your message and any replies to it accessible in the list archives.
