" ï¿½ Kit contains a" Why do I get odd characters on web pages?

I've noticed that different web pages display non-alpha characters. The above example was on Amanzon; other pages on discovery channel pages.

Make sure that you have selected the correct encoding (possibly Unicode (UTF-8)) for those pages.
*Firefox > Web Developer > Character Encoding
*View > Character Encoding

Why do I get popups on a web page I own? The appear when I go directly to the URL. I don't have the problem in IE.

I have several web pages that I own and administer. All of a sudden, when I go to one, I am getting adds that show up around the home page. This does not occur in Internet Explorer. And my anti virus software is going nuts.

Why can't I print a secured web page (https)? Win7, FireFox 5.0

Whenever I try to print a secured web page using FireFox 5.0 nothing happens.
I have to switch to Internet Explorer 9.0 to get the printed secured web page.
I'm using win 7 Pro 32-bit on a desktop machine

I tried the steps you indicated. It brought me to IE which I don't use, unless someone will die due to my decision. I hate monopoly, such as Microsof imposes to its customers. My printer works fine with any application, except with firefox, since I updated to version 5.0

Can't get to links on web pages

I can't get to links on web pages , shrink or enlarge the web page or show the other web pages that are open?The back arrow does work

Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

Why do I get extra characters in unix terminal scripts?

I occasionally use the unix "script" function to save terminal sessions to a text file. I've noticed that if I save man pages, I get repeated characters throughout the text file. Here is an example:
Joes-MacBook-Pro:~ joe$ script ~/Desktop/ls_manpage.txt
Script started, output file is /Users/joe/Desktop/ls_manpage.txt
Joes-MacBook-Pro:~ joe$ man ls | cat
LS(1) BSD General Commands Manual LS(1)
NAME
ls -- list directory contents
SYNOPSIS
ls [-ABCFGHLPRTWZabcdefghiklmnopqrstuwx1] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
For each operand that names a file of a type other than directory, ls
[etc.]
When I open the text file in Textwranger, it looks like this:
Script started on Fri Nov 9 11:05:02 2007
Joes-MacBook-Pro:~ joe$ ls man ls | cat
LS(1) BSD General Commands Manual LS(1)
NNAAMMEE
llss -- list directory contents

DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
[etc.]
Can anyone explain where the extra characters are coming from?

Interesting. I tried to duplicate your results and I find that script doesn't work at all for me under 10.4.10. I just get an empty file, except for the last line that tells me "Script done on (date)".
If you look at your script output using od -c you'll find that there are even more extra characters.

How can I get a Japanese flash web page to display 100% correctly?

I've tried everything I can think of but I can't get some of this web site's font to display correctly. Some of the flash shows in the correct, Japanese, characters, but some of it shows as code. If I log in as a different user, and set that user's International Language preferences to Japanese, the web page displays correctly. But, when I change users, and go back to the English user, the page displays in a mix of Japanese and messed-up code.
Here is the page: http://weathernews.jp/livecam/
If I click onto a different page of that website, http://weathernews.jp/map/
the writing appears as Japanese in the box, at the bottom of the map.
But, if you click on that map, and zoom in 3-times, to the city level, the font in the box under the hourly weather and weekly weather appears as code, and not Japanese.
I'm guessing that it is a problem with the computer booting-up as being English or Japanese, and the browser, then not being able to detect which version of flash to run, the Japanese or English version, cannot display the font correctly.
Why does it happen only on some pages and not all of the pages on that site?
Can it be fixed?
If so, how?
Thanks!

Yeah, I tried Opera and Firefox, but I get the same garbled text. The only thing that makes that page open and display correctly is switching to a different user, and making that user's main language Japanese, in the international settings.
Of course none of this is all that important, I mean, it's about viewing a weather page, but I am just curious why some of the Flash is read or written so that an English language set user can see some of it displayed correctly, but not all of it, where as a user set to Japanese language settings can get all pages correctly.
I know it has to do with how the Flash Macromedia sees the main language setting for the computer, but what I don't get, is how come a user using Japanese as the main language can read English and Japanese Flash pages (pages with English commanded Java come up correctly), but using English as the main language only allows me to view Flash pages written using English commands. Can I change my Flash program to read Japanese pages, without changing my computers main language to Japanese? Or am I stuck with a Flash program that must match the main language the user is using?

I keep getting "Reminders" that some web page cannot be opened, even when I'm not online or on the Internet, and I'd like to stop it.

For days now, a "Reminder" box pops up on my screen every few minutes. It's followed by whatever the date is. It always says that a Web page cannot be opened and to try various things, even though I'm not online or trying to open any page. I can get rid of it by opening the task manager (control, alt, delete), but it comes back in a few minutes. I tried "System Restore" but that's not working, for an unrelated reason. I'd like to stop this annoying reminder. Thanks.

Might be spyware or adware. You could try scanning for that and remove spyware if you find any.

How can I use Automator or AppleScript to get text from a web page and paste it in execl?

I don't know how to make scripts or complexed automator workflows... that's why I'm asking.
I'm trying to make a simple app or script to ask me what text to extract from a web page, like name, address and phone number of a web page and paste each one of these data in the righ cell of excel.
I was thinking to promt a request from automator or an applescript to ask me which text to extract from the page or to look throught the HTML of the page to search for specific html tags, from which extracting text and then importing it, or paste it to the specified execl cell. Name in the name cell, address in the address cell and so on.
Can somebody help me to make this script?
If you know an alternative, like a software that already do this or another language to use, please tell.

Try holding down the alt key as you mark the text to be copied. You can then copy columns to table text.

Getting applets into a web page

I am trying to learn about Java Applets from a book, after having done a little programming at college.
My problem is that the books first example (�Watch�) works fine when viewed through an appletviewer, but when I try to add it to a web page I get a �load: class Watch not found� error in IE. The Watch CLASS file is in the same directory as the Html file, so I cannot see how it is unable to find it.
My only thoughts are that my IE doesn�t support Java2 and that some part of the coding falls into this category. Is it possible to check if my IE supports Java2, and if not, is there a pluggin for it?
As this is a simple program I�ve included all my coding below.
Watch class:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Watch extends javax.swing.JApplet {
private Color butterscotch =new Color(255, 204, 102);
private String lastTime = "";
public void init() {
setBackground(Color.black);
public void paint(Graphics screen){
Graphics2D screen2D = (Graphics2D)screen;
Font type = new Font("Monospaced", Font.BOLD, 20);
screen2D.setFont(type);
GregorianCalendar day = new GregorianCalendar();
String time = day.getTime().toString();
screen2D.setColor(Color.black);
screen2D.drawString(lastTime, 5, 25);
screen2D.setColor(butterscotch);
screen.drawString(time, 5, 25);
try{
Thread.sleep(1000);
}catch(InterruptedException e){ //do nothing
lastTime = time;
repaint();
HTML Page:
HTML>

</HEAD>
<TITLE>WATCH APPLET</TITLE>
<BODY>
<APPLET
     code     = "Watch.class"

normally the Java Plugin is installed when you install
the JDK.
have a look at your Internet Settings (in IE):
in the tab "Advanced" there should be an item called
"Java (Sun)" (normally located directly over the item
"Microsoft VM")Since installing JDK I have upgraded from 98SE to XP, if "upgraded" is the correct word.
Just the "Microsoft VM" options ...... no mention of "Java(Sun)".
Is there some way I can reinstall the plugin?
