Background and float issues

I have some side nav items that are not showing the background color. Can't figure out why.
http://www.aptcoweb.com/dev/aptcoFluid/
Also, 3 divs near the bottom with the class of col are not floating. What's wrong there?

Interesting, Nancy. I already had it targeted in .side li a:hover but that wasn't working. Too specific? I moved those selections into simple .side a:hover and it works. Then I disabled the ones in li and it still works. What's the explanation for this behavior?
Its because you have no anchor inside .side li - the anchor is inside .side
<li class="side"><a href="/promo/index.htm">Promotional<br />Products</a></li>
For .side li a:hover to work the structure would need to look like below:
<div class="side">
<li><a href="/promo/index.htm">Promotional<br />Products</a></li>
</div>

Php and float issue

I have created a <div "content"> with inside two divs:
<div "left"> and <div "right">
I want both to be adjacent, so the left div I float. In the left I want some images and text, in the right I want a php form. This form works perfect in a regular division, and also in the <div "right"> as long as I don't float the left division.
This is the php function: <?php include_once("gbcf-v3/form.php"); ?>
The widht of the div is sufficient for the form; the webpage appears properly with the form showing, if I don't float the left div (but then the form shows up underneath to the right of the left div. If I float the left div, to get the form show up adjacent to the left div, the webpage stays blanc. And yes, I transfer the styles directory to my server every time I change a style.
What do I do wrong?
Thanks for any help,
Erik
Here is the link to the page, showing the php form in the wrong place (underneath instead of to the right of my text and image):
http://mysafety.be/inbraakbeveiliging%20promoties%20v2.html

The css errors have been corrected, the html errors are in process. I already have the form where I want: http://mysafety.be/inbraakbeveiliging%20promoties%20v2.html
There are still errors, but I see you've managed to get the form where you want it.
1. I am puzzled by your xhtml comment, more out of ignorance then anything else: when starting up this site I choose xhtml v1.0 transitional just because I was thought to do so in one of the Dreamweaver tutorials. Should I rather use HTML 4.0 transitional straight away in the future?
Since you are just starting out, I recommend learning 4.01 Strict. This will make your HTML documents easier to upgrade to 5.0x when it is eventually approved. Others may recommend using 4.01 Transitional as you develope your skills in HTML. I personally think Transitional is good for those who learned the old, deprecated and/or obsolete versions and need to transition to the stricter versions. (XHTML uses 4.01 Strict as its starting point).
What is the pro and con of html 4.0 transitional vs xhtml 1.0 transitional?
IMO, XHTML is more a fad than anything. It DOES have its place, but it has been, at best, poorly implemented. And if you do not know what it is for, or how to use its features, it doesn't make much sense to use that DOCTYPE. Here are some specifics written by others http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xhtml#Criticism

Background and space issues in IE

A coworker has designed a site. The page looks great in all
browsers except IE. In IE the background behind the text shows up
white. It should have a textured background like the rest of the
page. There is also some spacing issues with the graphics. Here is
the link so that you can see what I'm talking about. Any
suggestions are welcome!
http://www.laurelmanor.net/test/aboutusnew.html

You're missing the "#"
<body bgcolor="1c1a12">
should be
<body bgcolor="#1c1a12">
You have a couple of other issues which would be worth

Background color and float problems

Hello all,
I am having a problem with the background color and the left
float for a navigation sidebar (also with the background color for
the footer). The body color is set to gray, and the main page is
centered with a white background. I set up the pages using mostly
CSS, with a few tables where they seemed necessary. I set up the
navigation side bar as a div with a green background and a left
float. The footer is set up as a div with a green background. All
text is aligned left.
When I preview in Safari, everything looks as expected.
In Firefox and IE5: The background color of the navigation
sidebar has white showing up behind the type that are not links
(e.g., mailing address and subheads). The div does not float all
the way to the left edge of the page. The background color of the
footer should be green but shows up as white. I validated the code
in DW, and it reports no problems (at least, it checked out after I
made a few corrections).
I am not that concerned about the background color for the
footer -- it is either all there (in Safari) or not there at all
(in Firefox and IE). But I would like to see if I can make it show
up. For the navigation sidebar, would putting it in a table cell
make it work correctly in Firefox and IE?
Regarding the left float issue for the nav sidebar IE5: At
the top of the page, my logo banner (it's placed in a div) shifted
to the right (in IE only). When I added a left float to the banner,
the banner lines up fine with the rest of the page, but a white
margin appears along the left side of the entire page.
None of my pages are uploaded to a web host yet. This is my
first website. I am working in DW8 on a Mac.
Thanks in advance,
Kathy (Daylilybud)

Mista,
Here is my home page based on the template I sent previously.
Thanks in advance!

Issue with Visibility Settings for Backgrounds and Layers

I am using Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.10 (Windows) and having an issue with visibility settings for layers and backgrounds. I am attempting to get backgrounds to appear while viewing in Adobe Reader and Acrobat Pro but not be printed and so far have had no success.
When using a background the Appearance Options dialogue has "Show when printing" unchecked, but "Show when displaying on screen" is checked. This results in the background not showing on the screen, and the background will only appear once the box for "Show when printing" is checked. It looks like the option for printing is dictating whether or not the background is able to appear.
Using layers has not worked either. The background layer is set to "Never Prints", but will still show up when printed.
I was wondering if anyone else has run into this and has a solution, or has any recommendations.
Thanks in advance.

Hi setrev2012,
How are you adding the backgroud?
The only way I can think to accomplish this is via a watermark.
The basics...
Open PDF in Acrobat. Choose Pages > Watermark > Add Watermark.
Select a jpg or PDF of your background and adjust scaling options as desired.
Then click the Appearance Options.. and uncheck the Show When Printing option.
In this image the PDF is a blank page with the word "Test" on it. The watermark is the stamp and impression (a stock photo jpg).
If you want a solid color background, just create a flat image of the background color for use as the watermark.
If you have already followed the steps and still facing the issue then please share the file with me at [email protected] so that i can have a look.
Regards,
Rave

My lock screen just shows a black background and a User Name/Password dialog after opening the screen from sleep. How do I get it back to where it blurs my desktop image with the dialog and my account image displayed?

I'm not sure when it began, but now my Macbook Air only shows a black background and a User Name and Password dialog box when I wake it from sleep. It used to show my desktop background blurred with my user name and icon displayed with only a text field for entering my password. I'm currently using Yosemite (OS X 10.10.1) and all updates have been done. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I know this isn't a real problem, just an annoyance since I couldn't find how to change it back in the System Preferences.

I just have to point out that after looking at a related post (https://discussions.apple.com/message/22661092#22661092), it brought to memory that my issue most certainly began happening after I added some DoD certificates to the keychain. This obviously has something to do with it, but it still leaves me wondering what actually causes this to happen. :/

Installation and Other Issues

I recently upgraded from Crystal 11.5 to Crystal 2008. Since then I have been battling a host of problems trying to make this work. This is the latest.
I had a problem running some older reports in a web application. I was getting the Login Failed error, which can mean about anything. So I was going to upgrade the report definition to the new Crystal 2008 format. Since I installed Crystal 2008, I have been having an issue with the report designer. The disoplay would not refresh the background. Whatever was on the screen when you opened the designer was in teh background and if you opened a dialog while in the designer, it remained on the screen even though the function completed successfully. This confusing display made the designer impossible to work with.
So I decided to reinstall Crystal 2008 to see if there was something wrong in the setup. I opend control panel and uninstalled all the crystal 2008 components, which included Crystal 2008 SP2, Crystal 2008 SP3 and one other component. All the uninstalls ran successfully. I still have Crystal Reports XI release 2 installed.
I tried to run the install for Crystal. The install runs fine until it comes to the section to register the dll's. Then it fails. Below is the first message that I get. After that I get the same message for every module to be registered.
Error 1904. Module C: u2018program Files\BusinessObjects\BusinessQbjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ReportConvTool .dll failed to register.
HRESULT -2147024770. Contact your support personnel.
I have every version of the .Net framework on this machine and they are all up to the most current level. I have Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008 on this machine as well. I am an administrator, and I do not have permission issues.
I am getting very weary of dealing with Crystal Reports technical problems. Nothing should be this difficult to make it work out of the box. Can someone help me.

Hello,
PLEASE don't post the same question in multiple forums.
Install SP3 and test again and then search this for forum as well as Microsoft's site for the 1904 error. It's an MSIExec error code. Typically it's missing Windows dependencies or your PC needs to upgrade the MS Installer program.
Usually when dll's fail to register is because the OS is missing windows dependencies and likely the C++ runtime package.
Thank you
Don

How to change color of background and font in Message Boxes

I have a req, where I have to display a warning message for certain condition. I did that using pagecontext.putDialogMessage(msg).
But the business wants to have the displayed message in a more bright color. I didn't come across any documentation on how to change the background and font of a Message Box. Can you please help me out in solving this issue ??

user597481 ,
Here are my responses:
For displaying a warning message, putDialogMessage takes only an OAException bean.
OAException is a java class and not a java bean.I'm not clear on how to use a OARawTextBean to display a warning message. I tried looking thru dev guide but still am not clear on how to do it.
>>
1)Add a raw text bean in pagelayout region at the top.
2) Now in ur code whenever u need to throw exception, set some page parameter say xxx=true and then, use pageContext.redirectToCurrentPage
that will redirect the flow to process request.3)In process request based on page parameter xxx=true, u can get exception message and use setValue in raw text bean to show it.
I hope this is clear

Email and Contact Issues

My emails are not coming through to my phone unless I manually refresh. I have three accounts setup (Yahoo! and 2 school email accounts). Both school accounts, when I sign on from a computer says something about Outlook: one says Mircosoft outlook and the other says Outlook live.
I contacted my school and got the correct settings for each account. They work because I get the emails as long as I manually refresh. I initially had my phone set to check for mail every hour but after realizing it was not automatically doing this, I set it for every five minutes. That still didn't help.
Out of frustration, I called Verizon who told me they knew nothing about such an issue. They connected me to Samsung who said the same thing. Apparently they were both lying as I have Googled this issue and see that it has been posted since Sept 2010. I just have not noticed a solution (possibly overlooking it).
The solution that they gave me was so a hard reset (didn't work), delete then re-add the accounts (didn't work) or use a workaround. My response to their last suggestion was that I did not feel it was necessary for me to do that when the phone I purchased was supposed to handle email. This has been an issue since I got the phone in Nov 2010 when I switched to VZ. I didn't really notice it until this month because I was having text messaging issues which they didn't fix until this month.
Samsung ended up telling me to send them my phone and they would troubleshoot it but I had to contact VZ about getting a loaner phone as they were going to have it for a week. When I called VZ back, they told me they would just send me a replacement phone and to not send the phone to Samsung because they could have given me a defective phone. The order wasn't placed because their system was down that Friday and the guy was supposed to call me back. He never did so I called VZ a third time.
The tech support rep told me that she was positive that if I got a brand new phone I would still have the same problem because its a known issue that Samsung has yet to fix. Also she had the same phone and also some other people she worked with. She told me to make sure I deleted junk mail, sent stuff, kept the inbox down, and empty the trash and that should help. She was supposed to call me back and see if it helped (which it didn't). She never called back....that was Monday and today is Friday.
Now I'm feeling like they are lying to me because they don't want to replace my device. Then on top of that they told me it would more than likely be a refurbished device instead of a brand new device even though I still have a warranty. Should I push for a new phone or is this really a known issue with Samsung that they have yet to fix? If it is a Samsung issue, what's the workaround until they actually fix it?
By the way, Gmail works almost instantaneously. They told me to forward all of my mail there but that didn't work for my two school accounts. I don't like that anyway.
As for the contact issues, I just noticed two weeks ago that my Facebook and Twitter contacts are unsyncing themselves. I don't have all of my Facebook friends or Twitter followers in my phonebook but those whose phone numbers I have, are linked to their Facebook and or Twitter accounts but I notice that both of these accounts unlink themselves. I have no idea why this happens. I keep having to go back into my phonebook and relink about 30 people to their Facebook and or Twitter profiles. Any idea why?

In your email app, have you tried going into each account, pressing the menu button, account settings, and setting email check frequency to the desired time?
If that's not the issue, then perhaps pressing the menu button at the home screen, going into settings, accounts and sync, and clicking the background data option is the issue.
The reason why Gmail works well is that instead of polling (which is what the email app uses, where it queries the account to see if there's anything new), it pushes your email through meaning that it's virtually instantaneous.
With regards to the Twitter and Facebook issue, try going into the accounts and sync area that I mentioned before. There, you will be able to set the SNS sync interval and sync the contacts, birthdays, and whatever else it allows. You'll probably have to click on each of those accounts to check various options before it will autosync.
My frequency is set to every 5 mins. That hasn't worked.
The background data sync option is clicked already.
The Twitter and Facebook SNS syncing is set. I have noticed though that sometimes when I go in there, the sync arrow is red by Twitter and Facebook. I uncheck the box and recheck it and then it turns green again. What I don't know is why it randomly turns red in the first place. I'm assuming this is the reason the Facebook and Twitter stuff unsyncs itself.

Some PDF Files Shown with Black Background and White Text - Annoying

Hi All,
Recently some of my pdf documents, stored on my phone, are displayed with a black background and white text. This is quite annoying. A few weeks ago I didn't have this problem. All of my pdf documents had a white background with black text.
I'm a new iPhone user without much experience with the device. I have the 4.3 version of the software and update when prompted. I use Files Pro, FileApp Pro and QuickOffice applications in conjunction with DiskAid.
If there is something I can do to correct the situation, please let me know. If the problem is with Apple, they need to fix the situation. My phone, which used to be a great device for storing documents, has turned into an annoying bug.
Thanks,
Mike

Can't export versions and other issues

Background.
I installed a SSD inplace of my Mac HD. Moved the Mac HD to the superdrive bay.
I have the OSX operating system on the SSD and my home folder on the Mac HD.
I used system preference to point the operating system to the new home folder location.
Everything seemed to be OK untill I started looking deeper.
In Aperture I was able to open all of my libraries. Everyting looked ok. Testing further thought I discovered that I can't create a new library or export versions.
In mail I can't attach files.
I also can't log onto this forum. I know the username and passowrd are correct. Even before this I could never sign in on another device. So I doubt this is related to my self inflicted issues.
I have deleted plist, ran some mainetence items with ONYX, and repaired permissions. No joy from any of those attempts.
I created another user and Apple ID ( that's how I got back on here) .
Using the new user every issue seems to be resolved.
Because things are ok with the second user I am thinking a re-install ( Mtn Lion or Aperture ) may not help. That was going to be my next move.
I could move my home folder back to the startup volume, but the Aperture libraries would be too large to fit, even though the libraries are referenced I seem to have a lot of GB for each library, like 35 GB for 10,000 pictures. My thumbnails are set to very near max quality and the resolution is more than 1920 x 1080. ( I am not sure right now what my 27 " Cinema Display is )
If I were to move the Aperture libraries out of the home folder first, then relocate the home folder back to the SSD, would I be able to access them if they are outside the normal structure?

In Tiger, all mobile accounts synchronize by default. WGM allows you to change the current settings only. To turn off sync, manage both background and periodic sync "Always" and then use a empty table of sync items. Syncing is thus stopped.
To stop syncing an unmanaged mobile account, delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.homeSync.plist and ~/Library/Mirrors/*.
Simutaneous login prevention is really a per-home directory feature so it does not work for mobile accounts. See http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1733887#1733887

Problems with .chart-plot-background and event handlers

Hello. I'm trying to add event handlers to my chart so that the user can be allowed click within the chart itself to perform certain actions like dragging, zooming, etc. To avoid having to deal with handling mouse clicks that lie outside the chart itself (for example on the axes), I've found that:
.chart-plot-background
is the Region that gives me the entire chart and nothing else. However, when I attach mouse listeners to this Region, the event is only registered on half of the cells in the chart. If you've seen the default JavaFX Chart background layout, you know that it contains alternating rows of cells with slightly different coloring. I've found that only the rows with the lightest gray coloring actually register a mouse click on them, which makes me believe the dark grey cells are not part of the .chart-plot-background, but something else on top.
To me, this feels like an oversight in how the regions of the chart are defined. Why can I not get a listener to work on the whole chart and nothing else? Currently the only workaround seems to be to take the Region:
.chart-content
instead, and compute the difference between this region and the .chart-plot-background in order to manually suppress mouse clicks that lie outside .chart-plot-background.
Anyone have suggestions? Is this worth issuing on the JavaFX Jira?

Hello,
I'm not an expert on controls, but here is my guess based on your description: when you register an event handler on a "background" node, it is called only when the mouse hovers over the background node - I suppose the light gray is the background with the light gray cells being transparent and dark grey cells being filled. So the behavior seems correct - you can't expect the events to be delivered to background when it is covered by other nodes. I think you really should register the handler on the entire chart and filter out the events you don't want to handle. This however should not require much of computing the difference between the regions, it should be possible to do just something like
if (!background.contains(event.getX(), event.getY())) {
return;
Provided that the background doesn't reach under the axes as well. Note that if there are any different transforms between the background and the node with the handler registered on it, you may need to recompute the coordinates by
background.sceneToLocal(event.getSceneX(), event.getSceneY());
And use the contains method on that.

Very interesting and quizzical issue in JNI COding.

HI All,
i've been facing a really frustrating, interesting and mindwrenching issue in my native code. Here is a background.
1. I was given a thirdparty ACtiveX OCX file that needed to be called through JAva.
2. I wrote a C++ JNI wrapper to call the methods of the activex object.
3. I first initialize the object, set the relevant parameters (sent from java) and then call the method I need.
4. For every record, I need to perform step 3. NOw, I am ryuning batch loads. THE code works fine for 9500 records. BUt, once the record count reaches 9885, I get a pop-up error from the activeX OCX control. I've not coded that pop-up. It comes out of the blue.
I initially thought that it could be a memory issue, but even after doubling my VM Memory allocation, I get the error. Its not a data issue, because the reocrd that causes the issue, if I run the code just for that single record, it works fine.
Below is the implemetnation of the C++ code. LEt me know if I'm doign somethign wrong or if someone has seen something like this happen before. WHAt is baffling is that it works smoothly for less records. When the pop up appears, no exception is caught on the native side also.!!!
Does java set aside some memory specfic for native libs and that is exhausted after 9885?
I'm running on windows, so is it possible to trace the internal malloc and release within the dLL?
ANy thoughts and ideas will help. I've been struggling for about three days now. ALso, do you know of a good C++ forum that i could post this question?

          return NULL;
     __finally
          tpptr->Release();
          tpptr = NULL;
          //Release memory - java specific
          env->ReleaseStringUTFChars(encryptionKey, encryptionKeyc);
          env->ReleaseStringUTFChars(ink, inkc);
          env->ReleaseStringUTFChars(fileName, fName);
     }

Well you have now demonstrated conclusively that it has nothing to do with JNI.
It is either a bug with that component and/or you are using it incorrectly. Solutions to either of those would come from the source of that component, which would be somewhere besides here.
If it was a bug then you might find a way around it by doing one of the following
1. Try variations of use (options, parameters, whatever.)
2. Determine if you can solve your problem by only processing 5000 entries at a time (where 5000 chosen just to be significantly lower than the limit you have already found.) If that works then you can solve the problem by using a restartable executable that wraps the component.

[SOLVED] LXQt: Black Background and File Associations Ingored

Hi,
I switched from Razor-qt 0.5 to LXQt 0.7 (both from AUR) recently, and I encountered two problems:
1. After login, there is only a black background and no right-click context menu works on the desktop (see linked screenshot below).
2. "Removable media/devices manager" opens mounted filesystems with filesight instead of dolphin.
http://i62.tinypic.com/abt56s.png
Both issues worked fine in Razor-qt 0.5. I guess the black background problem relates to the lxqt-session-git package. LXQt 0.7 ships an own file associations dialog. I changed the default application of MIME type "directory" and "mount point" to dolphin, but obviously it is ignored. Usually, I manage MIME types with KDE's setting control panel. There, MIME types "directory" and "mount point" are associated with dolphin.
Maybe, anybody has a clue how to narrow down the problem.
Thanks.

Thanks, Chazza.
Package pcmanfm-qt-git solved the issue with the black background.
However, "Device manager" still ignores the MIME type assocations, even when creating a section for removed associations in ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list (like described in the wiki):
[Removed Associations]
inode/directory=filelight.desktop
inode/mount-point=filelight.desktop
I will investigate this problem further when I have enough time (maybe LXQt uses another MIME type for mounted devices). Nevertheless, I mark this thread as SOLVED.

Wifi, power and cooling issues with my MacBook Pro.

I've had my MacBook Pro for about 2 years and I've been really pleased with its performance from work I've thrown at it. I initially got this MacBook Pro refurbished from the Mac store and it has a Apple Care protection plan. Although this past year I've noticed several issues that are probably hardware related. First, my MacBook's WiFi does not receive WiFi signals from the great distances it used to anymore. The times I can pick up WiFi are within like 5 yards from my wireless router. Second, I'm having an issue with the power. This past week, it seems my Macbook Pro does not run off the battery anymore. It only powers on when connected into the power supply. If I unplug the power supply, my Macbook turns off. It does not revert to the battery which is strange. Third, cooling seems to be a problem. The Macbook Pro is getting very hot. It burns my lap when it is holding there. The cooling problem has lasted since I got my Macbook back in January of 2007. I thought it was normal since I would load the CPU with some graphics intensive games. Now the Macbook Pro gets hot to doing some less CPU intensive tasks like surfing the web or word processing. I have noticed, a decrease in performance, longer boot times, loading of web browsers, and word processing applications. Would this be the best time to consider taking my Macbook Pro and for repair with apple care? I'd like to trouble shoot these issues to know exactly why these problems are happening. I have a feeling it could be due to the Macbook Pro getting hot. As for cooling I go by the manual and place it on a table or hard surface, or my lap. I pretty much want to know what is wrog and how to prevent issues like this in the future.
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
It sounds like you have several issues:
I don't know why your MBP can only receive wireless signals from 5 feet away. Unless possibly the antenna has worked loose. But I'm just guessing.
Regarding the power, is your battery still good? Have you tried resetting the SMC?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411?viewlocale=en_US
Regarding the heat issue, have you tried running the extended version of the Apple Hardware Test? If you check your fans with iStatPro, are both running at an appropriate speed for the heat?
Also, have you checked in Activity Monitor for any out of control processes which might be running in the background and hogging the CPU?
A good place to start would be with the AHT. Since you have Applecare, you should also have a Tech Tool Deluxe disc, and you can run that too. Should anything turn up in the form of an error code, that would indicate a hardware problem. Write down the code and call Apple to arrange for repair.
If you have access to an Apple Store, you could also just take your Mac in for evaluation.
Good luck!
