I think you've misunderstood chap

My initial issue didn't have a syntax error, it just hung in the code until I pressed Enter/Return.

I then tried Bartc's solution when I changed my code, which I then replied "it doesn't work", which as you pointed out was unhelpful.

You now seem to be on some sort of rampage as I've already recognised that it was short, and said I got a syntax error upon attempting the new code that Bartc provided. I then said thanks to you for pointing it out, if you want to call that sweeping it under the carpet, then so be it, but the issue was resolved.

That's really the end of the matter, whether you're fishing for some sort of recognition or brownie points I don't know, but try relaxing and taking a step back; the issue is resolved, I'm moving on with the program, I appreciate the replies from everyone (including you) so chill.
