How often do you search for source code example while coding?

How often do you search for source code example while coding? And what I mean is not when you search for tutorials to learn a concept before you start programming it, but actual source code to use in your programs.

Usually by going to a reference such as PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor or W3Schools Online Web Tutorials.

For syntax and examples of things I don't work with frequently, I often Google for examples.

I like to put a "Thanks to: <<<URL>>>" comment in the source code for nifty solutions.

Every time I'm not sure about something in PHP, I'd search for a code sample. But after coming across a few years, I myself have coded many personal libraries that address pretty much every problem I've ever encountered and don't have to search for code examples that frequently any more.

I use Delicious.com If a script works the way I want it to, (after spending the time filtering Google results), then I'll tag it and bookmark it on Delicious.com Saves me a bunch of time clicking through search results.

Takes a while to build up a nice library of tagged bookmarks, but worth it for me. I'm not organized enough to maage a local copy of code snippits.

I search for source code for syntax, seems like Im always putting in a stray ' where there shouldn't be one, or vise versa.

Keep on reading if you want to use this approach to backlinking. Whether you’re creating links to your 300 internet marketers internet site or any other website, you must focus on using whitehat strategies to obtain long term results.
Use Forum Posting: When dealing with whitehat link building, you should always remember to use forums and discussion boards. Numerous available forums are okay with you placing your website link in the signature of your forum post. If your website is about one particular subject, the chances are high that you can find and post on a forum that focuses on the same subject. However, in order to make forum link building really work for you, you should only select forums that are active. This is because active forums are considered to be valuable by the search engines. So, you must focus on the amount as well as the value. In addition, when you first start out putting your links in your signature posts, you will get new people to your website because they clicked on this link to your blog.

Each time I'm not certain about somewhat in PHP, I'd look for for a rules taster. But after coming across a few years, I myself have implicit many personal libraries that address attractive much every problem I've ever encountered and don't have to search for code examples that frequently any more.
