Hello,
i have a selection problem with JTable. I want to allow only single cell selection and additionally limit the selection to the first column.
I preffered the style from MS Outlook Express where you can select the email accounts to edit.
It is a table like this:
Account name | Type | ...
--------------|---------|---------------------
Hotmail | POP3 |
GMX | IMAP |The selection should be only avaibable at 'Hotmail' or 'GMX' - not at 'POP3', 'IMAP' or as complete row selection.
Please help me!
Thanks.

How to write selected text in JTextArea in selected location
iam using JTextArea ...

JTextArea.getSelectedText() and

Hi!
I' ve a problem using JTextArea. I'm trying to discuss in a brief.....
I've created an application that is used as a front end for a SQL database application.
There is a text area (JTextArea). Clicking on a button, what I enter in the text area would be saved into the database. As well as, the text area would be used to display the data (a few line) that the database already contains. That is to say, that a user can edit new text to store into the database and modify older text that is already stored in the database.
A line the text area would contain could be as long
as this line.
Or, a line may be long like this.
< There may be a gap / empty line >
A line may be start & end in these positions.
figure: a text area (JTextArea)
Suppose that someone used this text area to edit a few lines as the figure displays.
Now, the next time when he will return here after doing some other tasks with this application or, after reopening the application; the text area should display the entire text the database contains in the format it was edited (See the figure).
But, I failed to do all the things I sated above! (Except the job with database)
I don't have any problem in database connectivity or getting the text (String) a database contains.
Would you please send me a code that explains how to achieve the things I need?
Please........Hellow again !
Your suggestion to use the methd trim() did not help to the problem I mentioned. But you would be glad to know that the method solve the another problem I had.
But !...but I' m still in the same condition.
Well, Canad! I think the another one you said the 'padding' is unable to work successfully as the text area and hereafter the database would contain multiple lines and not only one line. Because, after editing one line if I fill the rest of the space ( space to store string / text in a column of the database ) then where the other lines that would be entered into the text area would be stored ?! (See your suggestion 'padding')
I can not find out anything & I'm getting tired. Would you do something at my request ?
Please...Please...Please... send me a code that helps to achieve what the actually I need and ofcourse, explains clearly. -
Select Problem For 'Back Menus' - Zen V P
Just got the Zen V Plus and tried to set the time/date. Followed the 'guide' and after the time/date screen pressed the 'back button'. Got the Set Alarm/Date/Time (etc) menu but when I selected an option (moved joystick down to desired option then pressed the joystick) the time/date display came up and I was NOT ABLE to set the date. Same thing occurred trying to set the date (tried it several times and it worked once .... then attempted again - several times (4) but it only worked once). Turns out I have the same problem with any option in ANY 'back' menu. Suggestion?
Do I have a defecti've unit (can't be the 'operator' who is defecti've! haha)? Should I return it and try another?
Actually not that interested in playing music .... it's more for playing .wma(DRM) book files.Latest ... updated my firmware (to ZENVPlus_PCFW_P4S_L2___0.exe) and it fixed the select problem for SET DATE/TIME etc however
the SELECT procedure doesn't always work for 'back button' menus. Example: tried to set a bookmark... following procedure in 'guide', pressed 'back button' and held it, from 'NOW PLAYING' screen - works 2 out of 5 times. Most of the time, pressing and holding takes you back to the previous menu - not to the 'back' (or in this case the SET BOOKMARK) menu. Sounds like something for the next version of firmware ... the code doesn't always set an internal timer correctly (am a programmer of 30 years ... part of that time pgmmng firmware). -

Hello. I feel your pain and frustration with the print selection problem in safari, especially in Snow Leopard. I have spent hours trawling help pages and forums etc. BUT YEE HAA (sorry got a bit excited, but it really was hours) I found the answer. So here goes.
Click on Safari
Scroll down to services then slide to right
Scroll down to services preferences and click
Scroll down to the Text section
If you Tick the Text box it will choose all options for you. Or if you don't want all options in the Text list, then untick Text box and tick options you do want.
BUT for your print selection problem make sure you tick NEW TEXT EDIT WINDOW CONTAINING SELECTION.
Then when you want to select something in a web page you want to print (including pictures etc) then highlight it, then Right click. And low and behold, in the list is NEW TEXT EDIT WINDOW CONTAINING SELECTION. Click that, Then press cmd+p and your printing.
I really hope that helps with your problem

pls help me in this issue,
Thanks in advance,
Premnath.You need to set a "Hide" after the write... I suggest you also set your own dialog PF-STATUS too so you can have just a PF2 "pick" button and a Cancel button ( this will look better to the user).

Weird BGP path selection problem
Hi, all,
I am seeing a weird BGP path selection problem on 4948 switch running cat4500-entservicesk9-mz.122-46.SG.bin code, this switch has two uplinks to the same ISP's different edge router, one circuit is primary the other one is strict backup, only default route is accepted from ISP. I am setting both local preference and weight to the default route advertised over backup link, however neither one is taking effect, BGP still thinks the backup link is better, what could be wrong?
rtr#sh ip bgp 0.0.0.0/0
BGP routing table entry for 0.0.0.0/0, version 105

ThanksHi,
On cisco routers , weight is having highest preference to decide best path. By default for received route, weight is 0 but you are setting weight 90 to backup path and that is why it is getting preferred (higher is better). Please remove weight and let local preference be 90 (lesser than route on primary path)

Selection problem in rendered JtextArea.
I create a jtable by rendering one column using jTextarea. While selecting the row, color of selection not geting to the rendered Jtextarea. How can i solve this problem.
please help meDo you include code in your getTableCellRendererComponent method to change
the color depending on if the row is selected or not? You'll need something like
if ( isSelected ) {
setForeground( table.getSelectionForeground() );
setBackground( table.getSelectionBackground() );
} else {
setForeground( table.getForeground() );
setBackground( table.getBackground() );

Select part of jtextarea content over a button click
Hi,
i would like to do something quite simple, but i don't manage to do it and don't understand why my code doesn't work :s
Actually, i would like to select a part of the text contained in a jtextarea when the user clicks over a jbutton ; here is my code:
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTextArea;
public class BasicFrame extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private JTextArea jta;
private JButton b;
public BasicFrame() {
this.setSize(400,400);
this.getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout(2,1));
this.getContentPane().add(this.jta = new JTextArea());
this.getContentPane().add(this.b = new JButton("foo"));
this.b.addActionListener(this);
this.setVisible(true);
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
this.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
// this.jta.select(2, 5);
this.jta.setCaretPosition(2);
this.jta.moveCaretPosition(5);
public static void main(String [] args) {
BasicFrame bs = new BasicFrame();
bs.jta.setText("this crap won t work");
}notice that this solution doesn't work, but if the "select" (or setcaret+movecaret) instruction is put directly in the main, it will work
Suggestions? Advices? Answers?
Thanks in advance!the code does work, problem is the textArea needs the focus to show the highlighted (selected) text,
but when you click the button, focus goes to the button.
run the code then tab (not click) to the textArea, you will see the text selected
simple fix is to add this line at the end of the constructor
b.setFocusable(false); -
Clipboard Problem in JTextArea
I am writing a text editor in swing and when i used the system clipboard for my JTextArea, the pop-up menu of cut,copy,paste delete and select all that normally appears in TextArea didn't appear. What could be the possible solution? Please note that when i use TextArea instead of JTextArea, my menubar goes behind the text area, and thus creates problem.
Could anyone give me a hand please? I would request you to be elaborative and give me some lines of codes if you can find the solution.
ThanksJTextArea by default does not show the drop down menu. You have to trap the right click on the JTextArea and show the JPopupMenu. Also, to enable cut, copy, paste etc.. you have to call the JTextArea.cut(),copy(),paste() and the selectAll() methods on the action event occuring during the menu item selection of your popup menu.
