    Using Vista as a network hub

    Hello,

    I have a Windows Vista 64-bit machine that has 2 gigabit Ethernet ports as well as a wireless card. I am currently connecting to the Internet via the wireless card. I also have an Ubuntu server machine with only an Ethernet port that I would like to connect to the Internet.

    I'm looking for some hub/routing software (free in price, of course) that will allow my Ubuntu server to connect to the Internet going through...

    in .NET
    I've tried all the TryParse, Parse and Convert methods, but like I mentioned above, they aren't very robust. For example, lets say you have a string like "1.2 seconds" or "16.5 MB" any of the above functions will throw an exception unlike their c/c++ counterparts....

    atoi and atof Equivalents in .NET

    Hello,

    Are there any equivalents to the c/c++ functions atoi and atof in the .NET framework? I'd like to be able to parse a string like these two functions, but I haven't been able to find anything that works near as good. Most of the .NET functions I'm aware of are not very robust.

    Thank.

    in .NET
    Oops, I figured it out...I failed to set the working directory on the process, so my "other program" was unable to find the files to launch. This is why I don't do client programming.

    Problem with process launched from vb.net

    Hello,

    I have a process I want to launch from my application. Here is the current code I'm using to do so:

    MenuProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
    MenuProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = True

    replied to How to highligh textbox?
    I don't think any version of IE supports the :focus pseudo-class, even in standards mode. I think your boss is just going to have to understand this can't be achieved without JavaScript for IE....

    replied to add a CSS menu toolbar (with links)
    You cannot achieve this with CSS, but you could do it with JavaScript. Just create a function in an external JS file that is loaded into the page. In that function, simply response.write the HTML to want to appear.

    For instance,

    Code:
    function WriteNavigation(){
      var theHtml = '<ul>' + 
                            '<li><a href="#">Link 1</a></li>' +

    replied to PNG background-repeat bug in IE6
    This "fix" really only works for simple PNG images that will work when stretched. If that's the case, an equivalent GIF would be a better choice for the image anyways. I don't understand what can't be achieved with a GIF?

    replied to vista is messing with the site...
    I'm so sure your problem is with Vista as it is with the browser. At first glance I didn't see anything inherently wrong with your code.

    Using FF on Vista the ad block is not shown when the ad-block plus extension is enabled. However, when I disable this extension, I get the following:



    I also don't have any problem viewing the ad block in IE7 on Vista:

    replied to jQuery PNG Fix - Not Working
    Na, no error. Is this same occurrence common with other proprietary filter-related PNG fixes?

    I contacted the writer of the png fix and he recommended specifying the height and width of the image in the tag itself. This seems unnecessary, but it seems to fix the problem.

    jQuery PNG Fix - Not Working

    Hello,

    I've used the jQuery PNG fix on a website I'm working on, but the PNG images seem to be distorted "only sometimes" in IE6 and IE7. It seems to happen most often when the page is loaded for the first time, i.e., when the browser does not have a cache of the images yet.

    The website in question is available at http://dev.akeenlabs.com/sharonlaing .

    Has anyone run into this issue with this...

    replied to include code with javascript (?)
    I don't really understand what you're trying to accomplish with this piece of code, but I think I might know what's wrong (or not).

    Unless haxx000r is a variable with the contents you want to compare to you are comparing the password to a variable you've just created which will have the value 'undefined'. Put quotes around it to compare to the string "haxx000r."

  • The reason the page gets redirected is because your if statement is making an assignment instead of a comparison.

    What you have: blah = blah2

    What you need: blah == blah2

    With what you have, as soon as you assign document.URL to something, the page location changes.

  • You don't have to have a link to join tables. There should be something similar between these two tables to join on, correct?

    I think it would help if you gave full, correct SQL statement(s).

  • IE not rendering class styles for dynamically created elements

    Hello,

    I was working on an Ajax-based page when I came across a little problem with IE7. If I create a page element in JavaScript and give it a class (to be styled of course) IE7 does not style the element properly once its added to the page.

    Case in point, I've created a validated test page, http://dev.akeenlabs.com/test_addData.html , that demonstrates what I'm talking about.

    Could someone please help...

  • Your main problem is that Firefox and IE render a block object differently that has a fixed width and padding. Firefox does not include the padding in the width of the element while IE does.

    For example, when you specify a width of 696px for your bodyblock, Firefox adds the padding to this size. IE, however, puts the padding inside the block whose final width will be 696px.

    This same problem is seen in other places...

    replied to GridView Column Formatting
    in .NET
    Thanks for the advice. The first method you suggested works properly. The second method does not work. Both before and after the data bind the grdLogData.Colu mns.Count is zero; apparently the columns aren't registered since they aren't specified manually.

    Thanks Again,
    Justin

    replied to ASP.NET - Set WebStream to Timeout
    in .NET
    Just to update. I was able to change from using the WebRequest to using an HttpWebRequest. New in .Net 2.0 is the Timeout member which allows you to specify an amount of time after which an exception is thrown. The neat thing it that HttpWebRequest inherits from WebRequest so the change was minimal.
