Alt label on mouseover

How do I ensure that the 'alt' will show when the mouse moves
over hotspots on an image map... I want plot numbers (on a property
development map) to show up as the mouse goes over each particular
plot which has a hotspot.

The title attribute is what you want, not the alt attribute:
<area title="use this" alt="not this"....
DW has no UI for adding these - you must do this manually in
the code.

Problem when Indicator for Alt. labelling for functional location activated

Dear Experts,
In our test system, i had activated alternative labelling for functional lcation for an interface with Locations in ISU.
After i activated it the entire labelling for functional locations got changed to some arbitrary sustem generated number. For a sample -?0100000000000000142. Is there a ways i can retrieve the original names back. We have reactivated it to inactive again.
Please help.
Thanks,
Boby Mathew

Hi,
Once alternative labelling is active, the previous functional location number (IFLOT-TPLNR) and OBJNR become a internal number. The visible location labels are stored in table IFLOS (Field STRNO).
How easy it is to revert to status 1-Inactive depends on the existance of IFLOS records. If there are no IFLOS records it should be possible to just deactivate via OIPU transaction - Uncheck the 'alt label active' flag - Save.
Where IFLOS records exist it means functional locations have already been created while the switch was active. These functional locations must be archived. See the full instructions for this process in note [359186|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/359186]. It's a old note but is still valid for all current releases.

Hi,
Please check the following settings in SPRO:
Plant Maintenance & Customer Service - -Master Data in Plant Maintenance & Customer Service --Technical Objects --Functional Locations --Alternate Labeling of Functional Locations - - Activate Alternative Labeling --
In this setting pls inactive the setting for Alt.Label.Then go to ES55 and try.It will work.

How do I disable the popup "Please describe the image map..." in Dreamweaver CC?

I've just upgraded from CS6 at work to CC and when drawing image maps it's back to popping up this message:
The previous solutions I can find (which worked in CS6) do not work here. When I go into my Preferences > Accessibility I only have this option:
I've tried checking and unchecking Media and restarting Dreamweaver with the same results each time. I'll be going back to CS6 until I can resolve this. I draw a LOT of image boxes, and I do put "alt" labels on them, but having to click okay each and every time is just not practical. Thanks for any assistance.

What this message is telling you is that when you insert an image, you should always enter something useful in the alt attribute like this:
<img src="my_image.jpg" alt="Company Logo">
I guess this is to help people with sight problems who can use voice synthesizer to read out the page for them.
Now I don't use CC version so the best way to enter this is by going in the code view and entering these manually. That is how I normally do even in CS6 or Expression Web 4
Good luck.

AccessControlException in Applet

I've been searching the web for some time now to a sollution to my problem, but none of the suggestions I've seen have worked, so here I am. I'm currently taking a Java programming class in which we are programming applets. I've written a perfectly functioning applet that draws ImageIcons made from .jpg and .png files that are located in the same directory as the .java and .class files for my applet. The applet compiles and executes beautifully when run through my java editor (TextPad). The problem comes when I embed the applet in an HTML document (which is also located in the same directory) and try to open the HTML (using IE 6) I get the following error visible in my Sun Java Console:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission selectupleft.png read)
I have tried other applets, and they work fine as long as they do not read any files into ImageIcons. I've seen numerous posts concerning this error and most suggestions involve modifying the .policy file, which I have tried multiple times but to no avail. Also, I need to be able to upload my HTML file and applet .class files onto a server so they can be viewed remotely. When I do this (and also upload the .png files to the same place) and try to view the HTML file, I get the same error as when I try to view it locally.
Basically, my question is: is modifying the .policy file the only way to make this work? How can I do this so that the applet is allowed to read from files that are in the same directory on the server as the applet is? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

For very good security reasons unsigned applets are not permitted to acess files on the client machine. You can't access files but you can access data from the server that delivered the applet.
The best way to cope with icons it to put the icons on the server with the .class files, and then access it as a "resource". Resources are files accessed via the ClassLoader which loads your classes. Resources really are worth getting your head arround. Any file which is like part of the program, properties files, xml configuration files and images are good as resources.
The resource mechanism gets files from wherever it gets the .class files, whether they are in a .jar file, accessed over the net or both.
Here's the code I'm using:
     * Load an image icon from a resource
     * @param name The name of the resource
     * @param alt Alternative and mouseover text for icon
     * @return The ImageIcon for display
    static ImageIcon createImageIcon(String name, String alt) {
        URL url = FgApplet.class.getResource(name + ".png");
        if(url == null)
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("No such image as " + name);
        return new ImageIcon(url, alt);
    }(FgApplet is the name of the class the code is in. In general you could use any class name whose class file is in the same place as the .png file).

Results Tooltip in a report

Hi
When creating a report with navigation link or dynamic sort on the dashboard when you point with the mouse over the link ( not clicking it just standing on the value) it gives a "Results" tooltip in yellow box.
Is it possible to control this tooltip and to give another value instead of "Results" or can it be removed?
Thanks

There's recovered folder in Aperture

Hi
In a folder called recovered folder there are no photos can I deleat it? And just one more thing that is nothing to do with aperture but why do people say hold the option key down when they mean alt?

Hi George,
In a folder called recovered folder there are no photos can I deleat it?
Is it a folder or a project? Usually you should sea a recovered "project". If all projects inside that folder are truely empty and do not contain any invisible images (rejected, hidden by filters), then go ahead and delete it. But I'd check all searchfields, if they are cleared, before you do that.
And just one more thing that is nothing to do with aperture but why do people say hold the option key down when they mean alt?
In all Mac help texts the ⌥-key is called officially the "Option" key, only on many keyboards that key will be labeled "alt ⌥" for "alternate graphics". My keyboard also shows the "alt" label, but many others show "opt".
From the Mac Help:

Alt text mouseover in hyperlink text?

I use alt tag text in Dreamweaver CS4 to give a text synopsis of the content on the linked page. If possible, how do you make alt text in the mouse-over of a hyperlink, for PDF output?External hyperlink text does give the address as a mouse-over alt text, but how do you modify that alt text?
If this is impossible in InDesign CS4, what would be the most efficient work-around solution? Comment boxes in Acrobat? Flash?

There is no way that I know to define Alt text when creating a hyperlink. However, if a hyperlink points to a URL, when you pause your mouse over the hyperlink in Acrobat or Reader, a tooltip will show the URL the hyperlink points to.
What you might investigate is using buttons. A little-used feature of creating buttons (which can be used to trigger actions of various kinds) is that you can specify what you could call "Alt text" which appears as tooltips when you mouse over them. When you define the button in the Button panel in CS4 or CS5, go to the flyout menu in the Button panel and select PDF Options. There is a Description field there which creates the text for a tooltip. So if the button is used to trigger a sound, for example, you could have the Description read "Double-click to Play". You'll see that text in the tooltip.

Target ComboBox label color on MouseOver or RollOver

I am having a hard time figuring out how to change the label color of a combobox on rollover prior to clicking the combobox to make a new selection. I understand how to set the color of the label, how to change the textRollOverColor, textSelectedColor, etc, but setting the current label color for a combobox is stumping me.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure how this could be done using style tag.. if possible then ignore this solution..
Well, you need a custom ComboBox that extends from the base ComboBox.. as below..
package src
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import mx.controls.ComboBox;
public class ExtendedCombo extends ComboBox
public function ExtendedCombo()
super();
protected override function createChildren():void
super.createChildren();
textInput.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, onTextMouseOver);
textInput.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, onTextMouseOut);
private function onTextMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void
textInput.setStyle("color", "0xff0000");
private function onTextMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void
textInput.setStyle("color", "0x0B333C");
hope this helps,
BaBo,

Why doesn't the alt tag work in firefox to open a description of an image on mouseover

In IE, when I roll my mosue over an image, it gives a tooltip description of the image contained in the html alt tag. Why doesn't this work in Firefox?

The "alt" tag is meant to show text when the image isn't loaded, the "title" tag is meant for a description of an image on cursor hover. IE has been doing that wrong for many years, where Firefox follows W3C standards. A properly coded webpage should have both "alt" and "title" tags.

Mouseover popup on comment bubble report

Application Express 4.2.1.00.08

Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
Theme - Productivity - 26
Hi I have a report based on the comment bubble template, what I need is to show a popup on mouseover to show more information. I looked at the packaged applications that come with Apex 4.2 and the Artwork Cataloge application seems to have a region based on plsql and on mouseover a really nice popup appears showing more information. I am wondering how I could do the same for my comment bubble report using this method. I'm not sure how to do it as my report/region is not based on plsql. Can anyone help me, I'm new to Apex so still finding my feet.

IMovie - How do I change the sports team editor labels such as players age, height and weight?

Cannot find a simple (or any) solution to this problem.
Does anyone know how to change the player label headings on iMovie Sports Team Editor? I don't want to display the players weight, height and age and have no idea how to change the labe headings.

Instead of posting HTML here, which the board is not really designed to handle, could you edit your post to clear that out and provide the URL to the page that has the problem?
When I look at the home page at http://www.falmouthgoatrace.org/ I don't see a problem.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies. Save any pending work first.
While viewing a page on the site, you can call the dialog to remove the cookie using either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Apex Page Input Item Label Conditional Style at run time

Hi,
Apex version 4.2.1.00.08
We have an issue after migrating to apex 4.2.1. We have a select list and use another couple of dummy items to be used as its label instead of giving the text value to the LABEL control. Only one of the dummy items is shown as a label for the select list conditionally based on another value. It was working fine with the earlier versions upto 4.1, but with the introduction of grid in 4.2, its now displaying the select list on a new row (ie the lable in one row and the select list on the next row).
However, we really would like to solve this by having a way to display the label of the select list either in "required format style" or as an "optional style". The display style should be determined only at runtime.
Example. Say P100_MY_SELECT_LIST is the select list
The label for this item is "My Select List Label"
I have another dummy item P100_DUMMY
if P100_dummy = 1 then the label "My Select List Label" should be displayed in red and with an * *My Select List LabelOtherwise it should be in black and without * My Select List LabelPlease help how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Natarajan

Well, I deviated with the various other things, and finally needed to get it fixed now. I find my own solution by having a Label Template which creates an ID for every label of the input item and calling a couple of javascript functions thro dynamic action.
1) Create a label template "FormFieldDynamic" as follows
In the template definition "Before Label"
<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#requiredicon_status2.gif" alt="Required Field Icon" /><label for="#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#" id="#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#_LABEL" tabindex="999" class="itemLabel">in the "after label"
</label>Note, I am having the image for the * always with the laebl and creating an ID for the label with id="#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#_LABEL" .
I have created a couple of javascript function to show the label dynamically as required or optional.
function setLabelRqd(item) {
     var v = item+'_LABEL';
     var pid = document.getElementById(v);
     if (!((pid===null)||(pid===undefined))){
          pid.style.color = "red";
          $('#'+v).prev().show();
function setLabelOpt(item) {
     var v = item+'_LABEL';
     var pid = document.getElementById(v);
     if (!((pid===null)||(pid===undefined))){
          pid.style.color = "black";
          $('#'+v).prev().hide();
}Use the template if the input item (label) is dynamically set as Required or Optional at runtime based on a value of another item.
How to:
1.     Select the template FormFieldDynamic for the input item.
2.    Create a dynamic action triggering on the change event of the page item which holds the conditional value to set the input item label as required or as optional.
Under the When Section
a.     Event => Change
b.    Selection Type => Item(s)
c.     Item(s) => PXXX_ITEM_NAME (The item that holds the conditional value to set the label for the input item
d.    Condition => equal to
e.     Value => Enter the value for which the label needs to be displayed in Required format.
f.     Set True Action
                                                          i.    Action => Execute Javascript Code (Identification)
                                                         ii.    Fire on Page Load => checked (Execution Option)
                                                       iii.    Code => setLabelRqd(‘PXXX_ITEM_NAME’); (Settings) /*Call the javascript function to set the label as required*/
                                                        iv.    Selection Type => Item(s) (Affected Elements)
                                                         v.    Item(s) => PXXX_INPUT_ITEM1[,PXXX_INPUT_ITEM2]…
g.     Set False Action
                                                          i.    Action => Execute Javascript Code (Identification)
                                                         ii.    Fire on Page Load => checked (Execution Option)
                                                       iii.    Code => setLabelOpt(‘PXXX_ITEM_NAME’); (Settings) /*Call the javascript function to set the label as optional*/
                                                        iv.    Selection Type => Item(s) (Affected Elements)
                                                         v.    Item(s) => PXXX_INPUT_ITEM1[,PXXX_INPUT_ITEM2]…It finally works for me :) and hope this will be helpful to others too. I will greatly appreciate anyone to mention it here if this helps for him.
Thanks,
Natarajan
