Confusion between "Your's and Yours*

Some grammar rules (and embarrassing mistakes!) transcend the uniqueness of different regions and style guides. This new International Grammar section by OnlineBookClub.org ultimately identifies those rules thus providing a simple, flexible rule-set, respecting the differences between regions and style guides. You can feel free to ask general questions about spelling and grammar. You can also provide example sentences for other members to proofread and inform you of any grammar mistakes.

Yes that's so true and the other one is based on possession. People tend to mix the two up not because they sound the same I think it is because they lack the understanding of their origin.
