In application_top.php put the snapshot date and version in a conspicuous position.

eg:

[code]
/*
  $Id: application_top.php,v 1.264 2003/02/17 16:37:52 hpdl Exp $

  Version: Milestone 2
  Snapshot Date: 14 July 2003

[/code]

Then when people post for help, it would be easy to ascertain which version they are using.

Obviously the details would need updating each time a new Snap is released and uploaded but this is a small price to pay (IMO).

Thanks.
