Uhm, no. I wouldn't ask this question in alt.strawmen. But, since web developers of all sorts will inevitably use javascript

I don't.

and since I'm using php, I thought it better to ask in this php ng rather than, say, alt.lang.asp (but would be just as likely get a correct response there as well).

The correct newsgroup would be <news:comp.lang.javascript>. Here it is
totally OT.

That's why there are different newsgroup for different purposes - because here we want to talk about PHP and not put up with all of that javascript.
Let me clue you in, Jerry...

"I know this is not a php question. If that bothers you, don't respond."

In the first two sentences of my OP, you should have put your blinders on and gone on to a post you *prefer* to answer...unless, you really prefer to waste time in such a manner as you've done in replying to this thread. :)

You know that it's OT and still post it? Maybe you should close your OE
for a while and learn something about Usenet and the netiquette first.

Oh, and by "we want", I think you're only speaking for yourself and a narrow margin of others..who still may be a bit reluctant to have you as their spokesperson.

When I want javascript help I got to a javascript newsgroup.
Yep. Me too. But when I don't 'got' a response there

... then ask again and rephrase your question.

I don't exclude other alternatives for fear I may get inane flames...as is evidenciarily proving itself out here, now.

What makes you think that you'll get answers to a JS problem in a PHP
group? Would you also ask PHP question over in clj if you don't get an
answer here?

Micha,

Actually, I think I know why he doesn't get answers over there. He's probably made such an ass of himself that everyone there has plonked him (or maybe just ignore him).
