No worries, you didn't post this in the wrong area of the forum. We just like to get to know everyone around here so all newcomers are encouraged to stop by and introduce themselves.
As for the comment about the search, a basic search will usually yield some results in the way of your question - giving you some basic understanding. If, at that point, you're still confused or want to ask some follow-up questions you'll almost always get a very positive response.
I'm rather new here myself, and I've found everyone to be very polite, patient, enjoyable and kind. It's just a matter of getting to know the rules. Check out the sticky-ied posts at the top of each forum, you'll find a wealth of information there as well.
