AP-div's acting like tables

I'm building a new website (as beginner). I use AP-div's, but when the text is longer than the AP-div size, it will increase the field vertical, overlapping the AP-div under it. That's not what I want.
In fact, I would like to do this:
ApDiv2
Left: 0px
Top: under ApDiv1
I know this code is not working, but is there any way to move "ApDiv2" down, when "ApDiv1" increases vertical?
In other words, is it possible to connect two or more AP-div's and let them act like cells of a table when they increase (not an absolute, but a relative vertical position)?
If someone knows a way to make it possible / have another solution, please let me know.

As osgood said, APDivs are not a good primary layout method. It's often helpful to make a preliminary sketch of your web pages with notes on where things will be placed, how many columns or grid boxes you'll need, etc... Then find a pre-built CSS layout that meets your requirements. You can learn a great deal from looking at source code.

CSS Styled DIVs that look like tables?

I've just redesigned my entire home web site using CSS div
positioning and I am now about 80% table free. However I have
several pages that I like lined up the way they are in multi
column, multi row tables like this:

Anyone have some good tutorials on how to accomplish this?
Thanks...

I'm sorry but nobody suggested the OP should "do away with
the images or the
matrix and use a UL to display a single column". The one
"column" display
was suggested as an advantage of the UL over the table in a
small viewport.

You can insult people without calling them names and I'm sure
you know that
1. The OP asks a question
2. I answer his question.
3. You say that it would be not logical.
4. I list my arguments for using an UL rather than a table
and politely ask
why it would not be logical to use CSS for layout.
5. Rather than answering my questions (or simply chose to not
reply at all)
you decide to come up with:
"Mr. Semantics, I beg your forgiveness. Now I must go make up
my laundry
list. I'm sure the original poster will have a grand old time
making a list
just for you."
I'm sorry but in my book I find this reply insulting. It's
like when you're
talking to someone and he turns your back on you before
you're finished
answering his question. That's the kind of behavior that
makes me call
people smart *ss. I could have used "Mr" though... ;)

Table rows acting like HTML TD Links

Guys, Anyway to have our Answers Table rows act like HTML Table <TD> Links?
I have not tried it yet but was planning to create HTML links in Table Rows, read those into Answers and see if that will work. Thought i ask people here if they have done anything like that?
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
Regards,

I am not sure what you mean by table link.
If you mean a report with links in one column you can do the following:
1. Create your report and an extra column as placeholder
2. Go into the fx of this column and tick "custom headings"
3. Insert your html link which can be a mixture of static text and values from the report and don't forget in the end of the link to define what text to display for the link in the report
In my case it is a link to google maps which I feed with city and street data from the report and in the report the city is displayed.
'<x target="blank" href="http://maps.google.de/maps?f=q&hl=de&mrt=loc&z=15&q='|| customer.city ||'+'|| customer.street ||'">' || customer.city ||'</x>
Replace the "x" at the beginning and end with an "a" and don't miss the ' at the very beginning
regards

How to make an EditText with CFL act like a system "Item Description" ?

Hello,
I have added an EditText with a CFL linked to "lf_items".
I want the EditText to act like a system "Item Description" EditText, so that when
the user enters a value and presses on CTRL+TAB in it, a CFL event will not be triggered and the focus will simply be transfered to the next item.
Does anybody know how to do that ?

have found a solution.
I wanted to have an EditText with a CFL pointing to
SAPbouiCOM.BoLinkedObject.lf_Items .
In sap's marketing document one can enter a free description to
the "Item Description" column by using CTRL + TAB .
I needed to build a similar solution.
The answer I found was to:
Track a CTRL+ TAB press,
Read the value the user entered from the EditText.Value
Totally stop the CFL event
Do oMatrix.FlushToDataSource()
Write the value to the DBDataSource of the user table
Do oMatrix.LoadFromDataSource()
Allow the CFL event to run as usual.
Cheers

Setting App Div relative to a Table

Hi. I'd like to set an AppDiv relative to a specific Table cell. So its x-y coordinates are 'locked' witin that cell, but the cell - and its table - may float within the page (for example, always in the center). How to?
Thanks in advance...

First you would insert a relatively positioned <div> container in the table <td> cell (see below)
<td>
<div id="holder" style="position: relative;">
</div>
</td>
Then in the relatively positioned <div> container you would insert your absolutely positioned <div> (see below)
<td>
<div id="holder" style="position: relative;">
<div id="positioned">This is an absolutely positioned container</div>
</div>
</td>
Use some css to style and position the absolutely positioned <div>
#positioned {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 100px;
width: 250px;
height: 200px;
background-color: #FC3;

My 3rd generation ipod touch is acting like it has a ghost. when it is sitting there the screen flips between pages, letters and commands are input on their own.

All of a sudden, my iPod Touch has developed a mind of its own. When it is on, but I am not actively manipulating it, it acts like I have swiped the screen or entered characters on the keyboard, or activated an app. It is as if the screen is picking up capacitive input but my fingers aren't touching it. It happens in all apps or just on the home screen, whether I'm holding the iPod or it is just sitting on a table. I have turned it off, restored the software, but the problem seems to be getting worse.

I use my Ipod Touch all the time for work I am a struggling truck driver and Thursday 4-28-11 my ipod started doing this I cant even listen to music on it I am 8 hours from an Apple store so that is not an option for me its like its going in to apps and has actually sent emails it types and just does what it wants to do my wife bought this for me as a gift last FEb(2/2010) so it is not even under warranty anymore I don't know what to do i have tried restoreing it 2 or 3 times if anyone can please help me

What will be the Structure of itab created with "LIKE TABLE OF sy-ucomm"

Data fcode like table of sy-ucomm
The table thus created will have one column but it will not have any structure.
How can I write a code with this effect:
LOOP AT fcode.
WRITE:/ fcode-????.
ENDLOOP.
This question is just out of my curiosity I undertsand that by altering the declaration like
Data begin of fcode occurs 0,
data ucomm like sy-ucomm,
end of fcode.
I will be able to name it. But out of the academic interest I want to know that without altering the decalation part can we do it

Hello Flora,
There are two points to be noted here -
1. the table you have created doesn't have a header line.
2. The table you have created doesn't have a "structure".
All internal tables declared with reference to a non-structural type / object have got only one field.
for example -
Data ITAB TYPE I OCCURS 0.
These internal tables have certain limitations. They cannot be displayed in an ALV Grid, for instance.
And since they do not have a <i>structure</i>, the hypen operator '-' doesn't really make sense. When you say SYST-UCOMM, you are referring to the field UCOMM in the structure SYST.
Hope that's clear.
Regards,
Anand Mandalika.

I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen. How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

Dear Jean:
It sounds like you are trying to get your external monitor to act as the primary viewing screen. For example it would have your Doc, Icons, Etc. In order to make the external monitor the primary screen you have to:
Open System Preferences.
Choose the Displays Icon
There will be several tabs to choose from pick Arrangement
Drag the toolbar to desired display
Let me know if this helps at all!

I have a Yahoo search bar acting like an App tab that I can't get rid of. There is no option to unpin when I right click on it.

I have a yahoo search bar which was installed during a download and installation of SIW.exe a system information application from http://gtopala.com/. It was the freeware version which is add based software. However I didn't expect that the search function would be such a nusance and interfere with Firefox's functions.
The search bar is acting like a App tab that I can't move or get rid of. Ther is no option to unpin the object when I right click on the bar or to change it in any way using the 'group your tab' function to the right of the tab tool bar.

Reply: Cor-el > Excellent!! Thank You. In Tools, Add Ons, Extensions there was a Default Tab enntry which was the culprit. Am running W7 so the XP Tools, Options, Advanced , Use Hardware acceleration when available, wasn't of much help here, however I did fix a problem on another computer running XP with that same fix. Thank You very much! HD

Force quit the application and try again.
Try a reset or restart of the device, trying the app after each step.

Is there a way to make the NAS200 act like a drive in my computer

Not sure if this has been discussed here yet.
I have a NAS200 connected to my router and I can access through my web browser no problem.
I was wondering if there's a way to make it act like a drive that's in my computer. i.e give it a drive letter and have it show up in the "my computer" area.
I am running win 8 pro desktop hard wired to the router with the nas200 connected. Is there a way to "mount" the nas200 as drive on the computer.
Thanks,
Bob
Solved!

Yes, you just need to map the drive on your computer. You need to make sure first that the network drive is detected in the network. You can click on the following link to know how to map the drive:

Mobile account setup stops syncing and acts like a network user

Mobile account setup stops syncing and acts like a network user system under ODM
Setup: Mobile laptop users authenticating against an ODM. Every user has a networked home directory on an Xserve. The whole setup is 10.4 (client and server). All systems run a standard image. Most effected systems have been re-imaged since the onset of the issue.
Issue: Some of the users are not syncing properly every time. It is as if the system forgets it is a mobile system and reverts to using the User's network home (instead of saving to /Users and syncing). If the user is effected, the system will not even accept cached credentials if they are off network. This forgetfulness does not seem to follow any pattern and does not effect all of our mobile users.
In mucking about trying to find a cause to this issue I ran across an oddity in all effected systems Netinfo database. The users are each listed twice. Each entry has the same username, short name and UID. Also, In each case one record looks wrong... this varies somewhat from user to user, but in each case there is marked difference in the record's contents. Deleting the incomplete record in Netinfo manager seems to solve the issue (seems, as we are very early in testing this).
Anyone have a clues as to where this double came from? The only lead so far is that it looks like the users having issues pre-date the use of mobile accounts. At some time they all had local accounts that authenticated against the ODM but never synced or had networked home directories. The pool of users who just got laptops (and thus never had a local account) seem unaffected so far.
Also, what is the best way to browse the ODM master to find these duplicates?

I have a similar issue with computers bound to Active Directory. Users occasionally have a problem logging into their computers even though their account is fine. Logging in as Admin and running netinfo manager always shows duplicate user accounts. Deleting the one that says disabled always clears up the issue. I'd like to find a startup script that would delete the disabled account, thus preventing the issue.

How do I return functionality of my bookmarks menu before Firefox update 23.0.1? I don't LIKE internet explorer, now my firefox is acting like IE; gee thanks.

How can I restore the functionality of the Bookmarks shortcut. I DO NOT LIKE internet explorer, it is cumbersome and slow. How can I modify the bookmarks shortcut to act like a menu again? I do not like the bookmarks and history pop-out... Firefox was above the bar, now I have 2 copies of internet explorer on my computer, one with an icon that looks like an E and one that looks like my old firefox browser.... This was a result of the update 23.0.1 this morning, it was perfect when I went to bed last night.... Maybe I should use Chrome?

does it work as expected when you launch firefox in safe mode once (to rule out the interfering of any addons)?

Yesterday iTunes worked - today, it acts like it's newly installed (won't show any of my music or playlists) - what could have made it forget everything it knew yesterday and how can I fix it without having to redo all my previous work?

The title says it all. iTunes was working fine last night. I added some more music to my playlists and synched my iPod last night, then shut down. Today, when I start iTunes it opens up a welcome to setup screen and acts like it wants me to answer questions to configure it for the first time. When I cancel out of that, it opens up a normal iTunes screen that's completely empty of music and has none of my custom playlists (all the playlists it does show are empty) and it's asking me if I want to have it search my PC and add media files, as if it's newly installed and that's never been done.
Has anybody seen this behavior before, and is there some simple way I can fix it so it remembers all the stuff it knew last night, without having to start all over again and rebuild all my playlists and stuff?

For general library squiffiness following an upgrade the easiest thing is to restore your last backup, but I guess if it were that simple you wouldn't be here.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
