Inconsistent navigation formatting

I'm trying out .Mac/iWeb and have found a strange inconsistency with the navigation bar at the top. On some pages hovering over a nav link produces a bold effect and on some it does not. Here's the url: http://web.mac.com/macproductive
I'd prefer not to have the bold hover effect because it causes the various links to move around... I'd much prefer to just have the text change color. Regardless, I can't seem to find out the source of the formatting as the navigation bar seems to be set automatically by the template... I see no way to adjust it.
Thanks!

Gordon, I don't mean to burst your bubble or anything, but image based navigation sucks.  It's hard to maintain because you have to recreate your images every time you change the menu.  This gets old in a hurry.  My advice is to take a look at CSS styled menus.  They work for everyone and they are a piece of cake to edit in DW.

  • Inconsistent date formats between Rich Client and HTML client

    Hey All,
    Just wondering if anyone has come across an issue with inconsistent date formats from a universe based on an MS SSAS 2012 database connection in 4.x?
    The value of the date is returned as a string from the query but the object data type has been changed to a Date object meaning BusinessObjects should convert the string into a date if the format is correct.
    The problem in this is that the date being returned in Rich Client is in dd/MM/yyyy format whereas on the Web Client is in MM/dd/yyyy.
    From the Web Client business objects will return a date, however, it is a mix of MDY and DMY format.
    i.e. 15th of March will be displayed as 15/03/2014
    whereas 12th of March will be displayed as 03/12/2014
    All our application servers are configured for English (Australian) regional settings meaning all dates should be in DMY format.
    The date in the database is stored as a non-ambiguous yyyy-mm-dd format so it appears the variation is occurring somewhere between the database and BusinessObjects for the Web Client based reports only.
    I have also checked the sqlsrv.prm file based format and changed this to DMY but this has also not made a difference.
    The same universe in 3.1 and MS SSAS 2008 works correctly but not this one.

    Hi
    The date in the database is stored as yyyy-mm-dd format.
    As per user request.... Set the date format @ the Business layer level. so it will refelct same as in the WebI.
    Please find the below link. how to use custom Display option.

  • CS6: Inconsistent Pica Format Display

    I almost always work in Picas; and I just started using CS6, so I've just discovered that Illustrator CS6 has an annoying habit of occasionally — not always— deciding to display Pica units incorrectly. The only common factor is that it's always a whole Pica value, and the last whole Pica is displayed in Points. For example, 5.5 inches should be displayed as 33p0; but sometimes — again, not always — Illustrator CS6 will choose to display that as 32p12.
    Well, first of all, anything-"p12" is just wrong. It's anything+1"p0," dammit.
    Secondly, even if there was some insane rationale for displaying "p12," why is it inconsistent? Why sometimes, but not always?
    Does anybody know what's causing this stupidity? And how to fix it?
    If not…
    ADOBE: FIX IT!

    Aelfwin,
    Does anybody know what's causing this stupidity?
    Since Illy fundamentally works in points, there is not even any way that it can be some rounding mess up.
    I believe it is one for a bug report, here:

  • Inconsistent navigation headache

    Hi, please help. I have read the guidelnes but do not know if this qualifies as a single question as it is all related. Please advise if I should make more than one post. Or, please answer the first question, and once I have fixed that I will deal with the other questions, unless they resolve themselves.)
    I have created a series of navigation buttons in DW3, a program to which I am new.
    (The relevant code is below the explanation of the problem.).
    Most of the nav buttons work, in FireFox, Safari and Opera when tested using MAMP on my Mac.
    Each button consists of an image and a class.
    The problem button appears to be the one contained in folder 104_mast4_ because it:
    1 - turns to hypertext when the button contained in folder 105_mast5_ is activated
    2 - affects, I think, the button preceding it in folder 103_mast3_ when moving back down the tree. This button works fine when moving up the tree
    Here is the detail relating to the question for the button 104_mast4_:
    A – It correctly navigates to the page in the folder 104_mast4_ when clicked
    B – It is replaced by hypertext when the button next to it for 105_mast5_ is clicked
    C – The navigation to the page in 105_mast5  is correct
    D – But, navigation is frozen until the hypertext replacing button 104_mast4_  is again clicked
    E – The image for 104_mast4_  returns and it is possible to correctly navigate to to pages contained in folders 101, 102, 106 and 107 without the button disappearing
    F – This means, it is possible to navigate up and down the tree, except:
    G – that the button for  folder 103_mast_3 only allows traversing to greater numbers
    H – when pages for 101 and 102 are sought after those for 103_mast_3, the response is that the server cannot find the pages
    I – the server finds these pages fine when the button for 103_mast3_ has not been activated.
    (I have tried both the port settings suggested by David Powers on the forum as well as original MAMP settings, with localhost modified, and the problem is the same)
    Thank you, in advance, for your help, the relevant css, from an external file, and #id div with .classes is below.
    Here is the relevant css
    @charset ‘UTF-8px’;
    .barMicro88iab31 {
        width: 88px;
        height: 31px;
        margin: 5px;

  • Number formats in Excel

    I have an rtf template for AP Trial Balance. All numeric columns are formatted - e.g.
    <?format-number(SRC_ACCTD_ROUNDED_REM_AMT,'##,##0.00')?> OR
    <?format-number(sum(current-group()/SRC_ACCTD_ROUNDED_REM_AMT),'##,##0.00')?>
    When outputting to rtf, number formats look great, but when outputting to Excel, they are inconsistent - sometimes formatted properly, sometimes not. I get a string of numbers like:
    -200
    -180
    -94,500.00
    -445.5
    -1,629.00
    etc.
    Is there a way to get Excel to present numbers properly?

    Yes, but they will not be numbers for Excel any longer. Try doing this:
    ="<?format-number(SRC_ACCTD_ROUNDED_REM_AMT,'##,##0.00')?>"

  • Menu Navigational Buttons

    I have created a DVD in Premier Essentials 12.  The navigational forward and back menu buttons work in the completed movie's "Disc Preview" mode on the computer, but these navigational buttons showed up but did not work on the burned DVD.  Why not and how can I fix?

    I have two main menus with a Play All, Scene, and two other "personalized"  (January and February on the first main menu and March and April on the second main menu) buttons.  Because I needed a total of four personalized "month" buttons, the main menu automatically carried over to a second main menu page.  I have always set up my family videos so that you can play all, navigate to a particular individual movie (scene), or view by the month (multiple "scenes" in each month).  This is how I have done all my previous DVDs when I used the Roxio program.  My family like this setup.  Actually Roxio allowed me to set up my main menus with the months, and when you clicked on the month, you were navigated to a "submenu" that included all the individual movies for that particular month.  Premiere Elements menus do not include this navigation format.  So, I have a Main Menu 1 page 1, Main Menu page 2, and (you are correct) separate scene menus Scene Menu page 1, Scene Menu page 2, and Scene Menu page 3 (which are not organized by month but just chronologically...five to a menu).  The problem is that the forward and back buttons to get both back and forth from Main Menu pages 1 and 2 and all the Scene Menus are not being recognized by either of the two DVD players I tried but are working fine when I put the DVD in the computer and work in "Preview Disc."  None of the forward/back buttons work on any of the menus.  After hours of playing around, I did find that the menus do go forward and back in the DVD player when I use the down, left, and right arrows on the remote to navigate totally off the bottom of the television screen where there is just black.
    Hope this helps.  I will work on trying to burn a DVD with just the preset menus and see if the forward/back buttons work then.  My question is in order to do this, do I have to make an actual movie using my clips in order to get the menus to work?  I don't want mess around with anything on my current "family DVD" (except get the forward/back buttons to work!).

    I do not recall if I asked "When you are not seeing the previous and next buttons, how many menu pages do you have?"
    If you have 12 scene markers and the Memories/Family Memories theme (5 scene buttons per scene page), do you have
    Main Menu
    Scene Menu page 1
    Scene Menu page 2
    Scene Menu page 3
    Are previous and forward buttons not seen any where?

  • How to export/import data of hyperion performance scorecard?

    I have a Hyperion Performance Scorecard Environment which save data in Oracle database. Now I am trying to setup another scorecard environment which has exact the same set of data and use MS SQL Server as database. What is the best way to dump data from Oracle one to SQL Server one? I tried to use HPS Import/Export Utility to export data from Oracle scorecard environment to .CSV file and then import .CSV file into SQL Server Scorecard environment. The exporting process went well despite of some warning message. However, I keep getting trouble with importing. There are a lot of issues such as inconsistency date format, data dependencies, missing comma in .csv file, etc. Could anyone suggest me some easier way to do this data dumping thing? All what I am trying to achieve is a clone of my HPS environment. Thanks a lot.

    Hi Yang,
    i had your Query regarding Hyperion Performance ScoreCard. I feel that you may have some idea regarding this tool, so i was asking you. I need Some information Regarding that tool, implementations, Current& Future market, and any prerequisites to work on that tool. Also if you have any idea on Hyperion Essbase & planning plz let me know the implementations of this HPScore card when compared to them.I would be thankfull to you if you let me know what ever you know about that.

  • How to make netflix go full screen with multiscreen on chrome

    i have not touched my netflix since i got mavericks installed because every time i fullscreen the video it never covers the screen entirely.
    when i make my chrome window on my other monitor fullscreen there is always a small sliver that seems to be reserved for the IOS toolbar even though with flash and HTML5 video on youtube it envelopes the screen completly.  i have no idea why it does this. my only solution i found was to make the individual tab in chrome go fullscreen which hides the searchbar like fullscreening hide's IOS' toolbar but unless i am doing somthing wrong i can barley make that happen on purpose as it always seems to be a graphical hiccup that happens on accident.
    i heard of netflix switching to HTM5 which works wonderful on mavericks but i seem to be stuck with silverlight. i can easily remedy this by going out of multiscreen mode but it is a hassle as i must shut down everything i am doing to log out and log in again and while it will make netflix play fullscreen i will still get hit with the inconsistent youtube format that switches form HTML5 to flash at random which the fullscreen html5 will get rid of my main screen which defeats the purpose of dualscreen. so unless there is a way to make silverlight fill the entire screen or make mavericks accept HTML5  or even how to get chrome to fullscreen a single tab on command i am wasting $8 a month because of crappy hardware.
    and while i heard netflix works bets on safari and firefox i cant use them because netflix never seems to remember my passwords for other browsers which forces me to change the password every time i want to login elsewhere which is also a hassle.

    use the shift key in what way? as i click the fullscrene icon on chrome? as i hit the fullscreen button on netflix? or when i hit silverlight? or when i use it in conjunction with another hotkey you did not mention? please be more explicit and detailed in your solution.
    i have had this problem since i got mavericks in October 2013 and have been looking for a solution myself for the past 4 months and have found nothing. maybe i was searching wrong or asking the wrong questions but i doubt i found nothing because i was the only one with the problem. i figured that more experienced mac users and chrome users would have faced the same problem and came up with a solution already using their ingenuity and hopefully would offer me their solutions  if i asked directly.
    since you responded within 3 minutes of me posting this question and as vague as your reply was you mention the solution requires the shift key in some way i was right in assuming i was not the only one with the problem and that others have found the solution already. no hours or days required to troubleshoot this alien and unheard of technical issue on my behalf since you have done that for yourself in the past 4 months and would only require 5-10 minutes in writing out  8-16 lines of text to explain the solution. possibly 24 lines if you write out the steps as a list.
    i would not ask for help here if i found the solution myself but sadly i could not and have to turn to the community for guidance and cooperation in solving the problem, just like how humanity has solved every problem it faced and made the modern world the marvel it is today,though this sharing of information and labor that a social species such as humans would excel at.
    so how exactly do i use the shift key in expanding my chrome tab which would make my netflix go full screen with no gaps?

  • Session not replicated in a different machine

    Hi Everybody,
              I have an interesting problem related to session replication on a different machine. We have two managed servers in two different machines. When we stop the managed server in the machine where we have admin server, request goes to the second managed server. However the existing session is not replicated, instead a new session is created.
              We have used in-memory replication. Any pointer to the problem will be appreciated.
              Thanks in advance,
              Dev.

    Also check if the session replication is indeed on. You can see if this is on by looking at cookies (either javascript like alert(Document.cookie) or through browser like navigator; format for replication should be <session id>!<primary server hash>!<secondart server hash>

  • Format issue causing iBook navigation problems

    Hello!
    I created an iBook for a client, but some of the default functions of an iBook aren’t working when it’s previewed on iPad. My question is: since the file format seems to be the issue, what can be done to alleviate it?
    Problems
    When previewing the iBook on the iPad...
    Framing features such as navigation bar, book info, bookmark tool, etc. are missing
    The pages lack animated page turns
    Right and left page edge riffles are missing
    When the iPad is turned vertically…
    Pages scroll top to bottom instead of left to right as they should
    All images disappear
    Basically, the iBooks works mostly well in landscape mode but not so much in portrait mode. The client checked other iBooks to compare and the iBook I created is the only one with problems with the interface functions.
    Steps Taken To Save & Preview File
    Saved the iBook file as an IBA file. I also Exported it as an iBooks file.
    Sent IBA and iBooks files to the client to preview on his iPad (I don’t have one so I can’t preview it myself).
    The client opened the IBA file using iBooks Author then clicked the “Preview” button.
    The IBA file cross-loads to the iPad and the problems can be seen.
    The client also attempted to load the IBA and iBooks files on the Book Proofer application (this application does accept IBA and iBooks files), but that didn't work either. The client told me that are some file format issues unrelated to content, leading me to believe that it's a format issue.
    Technical Specifications
    iBook Author version I used to create iBook
    1.1 (the latest)
    iBooks version client used to preview iBook
    iBooks version 2.1.1 (April 16, 2012 release)
    iPad version the iBook is being previewed on
    1st Generation 64GB iPad
    File being used to preview on iPad
    The IBA and iBooks files for the iBook
    Could it be file format incompatibilities? Has anyone had this issue before? I hope the information I provided is useful. Any insight about these issues is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Catrina

    Again, sorry, a 'Shared' .ibooks file has the same format as what users download from the store.
    You don't need to be in the store to circulate that file. 'private' as defined depends on you. Email that file if possible and/or put it on your own server/dropbox and share the link to trusted individuals.
    If you're sending the .iba file to someone that then uses it in iBA, they need to use the 'Shared' menu to generate an .ibooks file, then drop that into iTunes and sync to their device.

  • Af:table filter date format : task-flow navigation issue

    hi
    When trying to use the date format configured on the Entity Object, with Format Type as Simple Date and Format as "dd-MM-yyyy", there seems to be a problem when using task-flows.
    The approach involves an explicitly configured attributeValues binding to use in f:validator and af:convertDateTime components in the af:inputDate in the filter facet, as discussed in the forum thread "af:table filter date format"
    at af:table filter date format
    I used JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0 to create the example application
    in http://www.consideringred.com/files/oracle/2010/TableFilterDateFormatIssueApp-v0.03.zip
    - The page filterEmp.jspx shows expected behaviour, the filter uses the configured date format and there is no problem when navigating to another page and back.
    see the screencast at http://screencast.com/t/CtQ9rsVFH3k
    - The page menuBTFPage.jspx allows for some navigation after using the filter resulting in the filter showing a date in the wrong format, using scenario (sc1)
    -- (sc1-a) : run menuBTFPage.jspx
    -- (sc1-b) : on "menu-btf : menu", click the "do go-filter-emp-btf" link
    -- (sc1-c) : on "filter-emp-btf : filterEmpFragment", filter on HireDate using "10-03-2005"
    -- (sc1-d) : click the "do goReturnSuccess" button
    -- (sc1-e) : back on "menu-btf : menu", click the "do go-filter-emp-btf" link again
    -- (sc1-f) : back on "filter-emp-btf : filterEmpFragment", see the HireDate filter value in the wrong format as "2005-03-10"
    -- (sc1-g) : click the "do goReturnSuccess" button again, which results in an error "The date is not in the correct format."
    see the screencast at http://www.screencast.com/t/ORHauBd3oQ
    questions:
    - (q1) Can the behaviour in scenario (sc1) be reproduced?
    - (q2) Why is the filter value in the wrong date format in step (sc1-f)?
    - (q3) What can be done to have the filter value consistently in the configured date format, so that errors as in step (sc1-g) can be avoided?
    many thanks

    hi
    First a short summary of relevant aspects of service request 3-2190488381:
    - development has reviewed bug 10193260
    - development identified some code where a pattern was not applied and started fixing the problem
    - out of the blue, development asked "Will clearing out the filter field completely when moving out of ataskflow be an acceptable behavior ?"
    - I pointed out some concerns (even in a phone call with development), but development did not see any alternative not "perceived to be very risky because of the current design", so the question whether the clearing-all-filter-fields approach would be acceptable became superfluous.
    - following this, bug 10193260 suddenly became an enhancement request (for reasons I still don't understand)
    - a workaround was suggested (for behaviour not perceived as a bug), "Clearing the search fields during taskflow exit in the backing bean (in the app)." for which I also received a modified version of my example application TableFilterDateFormatIssueApp-v0.04.zip with an implementation of the suggested workaround
    As an exercise to try an understand the suggested workaround (an because my example application seemed to have been modified using the currently yet-to-be-released JDeveloper 11.1.1.4.0) I re-implemented it in the example application
    at http://www.consideringred.com/files/oracle/2010/TableFilterDateFormatIssueApp-v0.05.zip
    It has a filter-emp-workaround-btf task-flow with a method-call activity on a managed-bean method, responsible for clearing the search fields, resulting in behaviour where the error "The date is not in the correct format." does not occur,
    as can be seen in the screencast at http://screencast.com/t/Nq7TkkRQ
      public void clearFilterFields()
        BindingContainer vBindingContainer =
          BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
        DCBindingContainer vDCBindingContainer = (DCBindingContainer)vBindingContainer;
        DCDataControl vDCDataControl = vDCBindingContainer.getDataControl();
        ApplicationModule vApplicationModule = vDCDataControl.getApplicationModule();
        ViewObject vViewObject = vApplicationModule.findViewObject("EmployeesVOVI");
        ViewCriteriaManager vViewCriteriaManager = vViewObject.getViewCriteriaManager();
        vViewCriteriaManager.clearViewCriterias();
        vViewObject.clearCache();
      }Because the managed-bean method requires access to the ADF Model binding layer to get to the View Object instance used for the filtered table, the method-call activity has a page element configured in DataBindings.cpx referring to the same usageId as the page element for the page fragment showing the filtered table. So that both the method-call and view activity depend on one and the same Binding Container (e.i. PageDef file).
    The method-call activity, responsible for clearing the search fields, would need to be called before each task-flow-return activity.
    As there can be multiple view activities with multiple filtered tables in a bounded task-flow, would that result in multiple method-call activities responsible for clearing search fields (all to be called before each task-flow-return activity)?
    It looks like a more general/generic approach is desirable for the suggested workaround to be feasible.
    - (q5) Does the suggested workaround imply (as bug 10193260 is not a bug) that all bounded task-flows with filtered tables should implement it to avoid errors about formatting?
    thanks

  • Navigation on Date - Format

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement as follows:
    On One page/tab(Tab1), I display the dates for which I have my data. On Click of a specific date, it should take me to a different tab(Tab2) passing the selected date value as prompt to Tab2.
    I have implemented this using the Navigation on Column properties.
    Implementation works fine but when the Tab2 opens up, the prompt holds some thing like " date '2010-03-01' ".
    Is there any way to remove this text and just display the date alone ? It looks really bad :(
    If I select a new date from Calendar, I see only date but when I navigate to this page using Tab1, I see the text and date selected.
    Any pointers wud be great.
    Thanks in advance.

    Just change select the column and change format of the entire column
    columns($A:$A).NumberFormat = "dd-mm-yyyy"

  • Date format mask failure stops navigation

    I'm trying to allow users to enter dates in multiple formats.
    My date items already have format mask 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
    I have added ON-ERROR code that handles errors like FRM-50003 so that users can enter '29-APR-2011' and the error handler fills the date item with '2011-04-29'.
    However, when users enter '29-APR-2011', then tab out of the item, the format mask error stops navigation to the next item. The user needs to tab a second time to actually leave the item.
    There are no FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE exceptions in my code that would stop navigation to the next item.
    How can I allow users to enter data in formats other than the one I've specified for my format mask, but not have to tab twice to exit the item?
    I know that I can add a KEY-NEXT-ITEM trigger like the following. Unfortunately, I would have to re-write much existing code.
    enter;
    next-item;
    I know that I could remove the format mask and let WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM handle things. But then I have to add validation code to all my date items. I really just want to write one piece of code that is called from ON-ERROR so that I don't have to re-write all existing code.
    Suggestions?
    Thanks,
    -Ken

    With FORMS_USER_DATE_FORMAT you can specify different allowed input masks without having code in your form. Heres some more info Re: Date field in 10g Form
