Lol. Good theory even if it's not right. It probably is right, they didn't keep it as that for long. Which one did you get wrong?

Someone else to put Karl in his place. See! I'm not turning schizophrenic, nor have I got alexia 'cause Wikipedia is definitely with me on this! That said though, I should have known because at college, when me and Andy were doing a piece on PHP, Andy stumbled over what PHP stood for, and after a little giggling, I corrected him :) !

You always gets show-offs - don't you? Gibou?

The PHP acronym is totally on its head, isn't it? They should have left it as Personal Home Page, at least then the acronym would have still been in the right order. Instead they have go with the fancy, I-don't-know-what-this-acronym-means, way.

I rulezzzzzz and this quiz is the hardest I've ever tried. Zend should inspirate themselves from it... :D

Excuse me for the provocation (flood ?) in an english forum but it was just a joke, answering to theWildhoney's post :)

Ah you know! I like messing with people ! trmbne2000 got 20 out of 20 as well - too many smart people we have here! We'll have to start inviting featherbrained programmers to make me look smarter.

Just had a go at this quiz and got 80%. Ach!

80% too

I didn't know that OOA and OOD were existing and that you can interact with php by the .htaccess. Interesting :)

I knew you could interact with PHP via HTA but I put the syntax was right. Clearly it wasn't! The OOA, OOD thing got me as well. What? Just what? I stared at it blankly and then picked a random answer.

Yes, me too for the random answer... and I confess that I've picked "Britney Spears" at the "Who has invented PHP ?" question. I really thought it were her. What surprize were mine when I saw it were wrong. This news will make me feel veeery sad :(
