There are a lot of guides like this on the Internet, but if they were from the web hosting company, we'd know if magic quotes were on or if we could use mysqli vs mysql, things like that.    Report

Also, 'magic quotes' has been deprecated and removed as of PHP 6.0.0. However, I agree that Webhost4life should improve the customer support and useful documentations and hints are part of it. This would also have a remarkable impact on server performance because of fewer bugs in web applications coded by beginners. I <3 WebHost4Life.com    Report

However, there is already a ton of stuff for beginners on the net, so it is hard to justify taking the time to rewrite all of that.  A good idea might be to "digg" a top-10 list of places for beginners to start, such as w3schools.com.    Report
