Cool - a good bit of detective work there. Thanks for the heads up. Now with the BBC Iplayer I can also see it without having to invite myself round to a TV owning friends house

Thanks 
Yes. God bless Iplayer!
And wow... I didn't expect anyone else to be up at 4.30am! You work with computers right? Hehe. I don't know what it is about working with computers that makes me stay up late... But I know I'm not the only one!
As of the 23rd, I'm a Web Applications Developer. Woop!

Well done SBT - what languages are you proficient in? Are you freelance? I find the internet so much quicker at this time of the day so uploads that take hours are done in about 15 mins. I think us computer people tend to suffer from insomnia! I also run backups at this stupid hour - at least we have the light mornings.

Thank you
My main language is PHP w/MySQL. I dabble in JavaScript, Bash, C and the occasional bit of VBScript too. I'm not freelance - but I have done a few little projects for people in the past to tide me over.
The net is a lot faster at this time. I always get close to my full 4mbit at this time, provided the server is question is up to it. Although, to be fair, I live in an area with quite a high population of pensioners who don't "get" the internet: so my contention ratio isn't bad during the day.

This site is PHP/MYSQL - I do javascript too with a bit of Ajax. Not tried C VBScript or Bash yet though. I'm getting 7.5 mbit at the moment - it crawls at around 1.5 at peak times!

staying off topic im not bad i get around 5mbit at silly oclock and during the day 3.5 slowing down to around 2.5 at peak times ( tiscali class this as 5- midnight ) which im happy about as had an argument with them a few months ago as they cut me right back to 1mbit. then tried to tell me i was only on a 2 meg line. a few settings changed i was suddenly getting 3-4 and he was saying its impossible you are only on a 2 meg line. yet BT told me i could get 6.5 mmm
Congratulations sbtUK

It just gets on my nerves when you have to locate an error in the coding, or you write a huge command and miss the semi-colon off the end!
As for Top Gear...result!! | |

Runs your code through php-cli when you hit F9, and jumps the cursor to where the error is. Absolute magic! 
Hurrah for Top Gear and hurrah for gPHPEdit!

She is a bit handy with a transit van. Let's hope she's as brutal with a Carrera | |
