Desperate help needed in understanding SPRY accordion CSS
hello everybody
like many out there im stumbling through some home/self tuition on DW. I've recently checked out the spry accordion. It all went well up to the part where I wanted to improve the outlook of the accordion. I luckily found some templates on the adobe site with an accordion with the general idea as to how I would like an accordion to look, or at least a platform for future ideas. (Design #2 at: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/?view=samples )
I've had a look through the code and have found great difficulty understanding a few of the div classes that are contained within it, i.e. what they are attributed to etc.
Here is the HTML and the Spry CSS docs that I downloaded from the link above:

I'n terms of the <div class="accordion_340_tab"> i'm really not sure what these mean. I know the label title is situated within them (at least i think they are!!) but i dont quite understand what they are doing or mean. There is no reference to them in any of the code/ CSS sheets i downloaded.
Plus, i'm not quite sure what the two <div style="clear:both;"></div> are clearing.
I know these will be really basic questions and I apologise for having to trouble you but any help would be really really appreciated
This is the spryCSS that came with the link to accompany the HTML file...

Thank you to anybody again who may be able to assist me with this. I'm very new to DW (and some may say not the brightest) so any low level explanations will be really appreciated.

Heya, I hope my response will help.
First off, I'd like to say that you are correct in being unable to find the " <div class="accordion_340_tab"> " anywhere in the project. I went through and checked all the code and couldn't find a reference anywhere. Also, I downloaded the project from your link, deleted the <div class="accordion_340_tab"> as well as the </div> right after the TELLUS PROIN EU ERAT" (as the opening div and closing div work together and must be added or deleted together) and it had absolutely no impact from what I could see in internet explorer 8 and firefox.
Therefore, I believe, that it was originally intended to do something or in fact did something but they took that out and then forgot to take out the div. Even within the internal .js file I couldn't find a reference. Maybe they forgot to upload a third stylesheet. Either way, it appears to work just fine without it.
"I'm not quite sure what the two <div style="clear:both;"></div> are clearing."
In regards to this, this div style tag is a less frequently used tag that can divide content. Do you know what the HR tag in html is? If not, try putting a <hr> tag (just like that, by itself) in your web page somewhere. HR stands for Horizontal Rule- it makes a horizontal line across the page. This div style clear both tag is basically an invisible HR that helps separate different divs or content or whatever else is on the page. Think of it as an invisible page break.
"I know the label title is situated within them (at least i think they are!!) but i dont quite understand what they are doing or mean."
You should check out some CSS tutorials for the basics, but in a nutshell I'll go ahead and explain what I believe you are having trouble with.
Let's put it this way:
HTML is the core of your web page. It is the content and substance.
CSS is the style of your web page. It is the color, alignment, and format of your page.
The "div" tag by itself is simply <div>. However, you MUST close a div tag somewhere on the page with a </div> A div tag by itself, however, will do absolutely nothing. How do you get it to do something? By making a CSS rule, the two most common of which are known as a "div id" and "div class".
The differences between div id and div class are pretty small- div id is mainly used for a div tag that will only be used once on the web page. Div classes are used for something that will be repeated, in this case, the accordion tabs.
Therefore, when you see something like <div id="content"> text blah blah blah </div>, then you know that the "text blah blah blah" is your content, and that content is being modified to the specifications of the id "content". Where is this "content" div? This is what you as the designer make (or there will already be one in a template) and can usually be found in an external STYLESHEET, which holds all of your css rules, and is then linked to the main web page's html document (where your content is) with a link tag in the header of the html, usually right after the title and before the end of the <header> tag. You will find <link href="example.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> but with a different name in the part i put as "example.css"
Within that css document you have different things you can do. Let's say I want to make one div id and one div class. I want to name the ID "example1" and the class "example2". It would look something like this (note that you must ALWAYS start an ID with # and a class with a period)
#example1 {
width: 450px;
margin:auto;
color: #fff;
.example2 {
width: 900px;
margin: 10px;
color: #000;
I hope this helped.

Help needed to understand business process irrespective of SAP
Hello all,
I am an engineer with specialization in electronics and telecommunication. The topic of RFID is thus fascinating for me hence,I have been reading SAP AII for some time now. The components of RFID like tags, readers and communication between them is known to me upto some extend but the business process that SAP AII supports/ implements/ automates are new to me because of which I miss the big picture of SAP AII.
The material I have been reading on SAP AII describes many such process e.g. goods issue, goods return, slap and Ship, logistic process etc. I find it difficult to comprehend these business processes as I think they are described mainly in jargons/ terms (jargon for me) like "delivery processing", "delivery document", "Shipping document", "handling unit", "outbound and inbound process", "goods posting" and numerous similar terms. Moreover I think the explanation is SAP specific.
I feel I should take a top down approach to understand SAP AII and for this I first need to understand the business process in generic/ standard terms. Once they are clear I guess I would be able to understand SAP RFID solution.
I request you all to guide me. Am I taking the right approach? If yes please help me understand the basic business process. Pointers to some good douments or any other resource explaining standard business process will definately help.
Thank YouHi Gaurav,
You are very correct that being a technical person you find difficulty in understanding jargon terms of SAP.
Let me explain you the scenario:
There are two sides to SAP
1) Functional - Understanding of Business Processes
Here there are two parts:
a) Business Process With Respect To SAP AII - These processes generally deals with RFID technology that happens in warehouses, disribution centers and are close to technological world. These deal only with SAP AII
b) Business Process With Respect To SAP R/3 - These processes deals with SAP AII when integrated with backend systems like SAP R/3, SAP WM or other systems. These talk about the end to end scenario of RFID. Like you pointed out, delivery processing, etc.
Understanding of Core that is part a above and a bit basics about b will be very helpful.
2) Technical - Understanding SAP AII
Here also two parts are there:
a) Understanding RFID as a technology with SAP AII - Deals with understaning technological viewpoints on RFID and mapping it to SAP AII. Example Devices, Tags, Device Controllers, Middlewares and their representation in SAP AII.
Most important is above part
b) Understanding Technological part of SAP itself - For example, ABAP, BAPI, BADI etc.
So this is how it works. You are going very correct and follow above things.
Please revert if you have any specific questions.

Help needed to understand JLS �15.14
Can someone please help me to understand JLS �15.14 (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/expressions.html#15.14), it says:
Postfix expressions include uses of the postfix ++ and -- operators. Also, as discussed in �15.8, names are not considered to be primary expressions, but are handled separately in the grammar to avoid certain ambiguities. They become interchangeable only here, at the level of precedence of postfix expressions.
PostfixExpression:
Primary
ExpressionName
PostIncrementExpression
PostDecrementExpression
Questions:
1. According to documentation above, "Primary" & "ExpressionName" are also considered as "PostfixExpression". Can someone please explain with some grammar examples?
2. The statement "They become interchangeable only here, at the level of precedence of postfix expressions." What is exactly interchangeable? Where can I find the level of precedence of postfix expressions?
Thank you for your time.Well I wouldn't consider myself any expert in language grammars and thus I don't really want to take any position considering this spec. Even though I know how to use the ++ and -- operators, this kind of documentation always remains cryptic :)

Help needed in understanding the code.
Hi All,
I am just trying to understand the Java code in one Self Serice page. However, I am having tough in understanding the CO code. In the prosessRequest class, I have the below code.
oapagecontext.putTransactionValue("AddAssignmentInsertRowFlag", "N");
oaapplicationmodule.getTransaction().commit();
As soon as, oaapplicationmodule.getTransaction().commit();
gets executed, its calling some other class. Not sure what is being called, but i can see the log messages that its executing some other class which actually does the calls to DB APIs and inserting data into main tables.
Can you please explain me what is being called to make DB API calls. I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks in Advance!

Help needed in understanding the concept of hierarchical queries
I really need help in this matter. I have a flafile containing about 4000 rows. It is from my supplier, it's structure is as follows:
create table Flatfile
(Pgroup varchar2(30),
Pclass varchar2(30),
Manufacturer varchar2(30),
Article varchar2(30),
Price Number(6,2));
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Application Software','Database Software','Oracle','Oracle 10G',115);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Application Software','Database Software','Microsoft','MS SQL Server 2000',200);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Application Software','Spreadsheet Software','Microsoft','Excel',100);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Monitor','15"','Acer','Acer 15"" TFT superscreen',199);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Monitor','15"','Sony','Sony R1500 flat',225);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Monitor','17"','Philips','Philips Flatscreen',250);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Monitor','19"','Viewsonic','Viewsonic PLasma Monitor',275);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Processor','AMD','AMD','FX-55',600);
Insert into Flatfile Values
('Processor','Intel','Intel','P4 3 GHZ',399);
My goal is to make a hierarchical query with the start with and connect by clauses. From what I have read is that I need to normalize the data of the flatfile.
How do I achieve a table which I can query so that the query will represent the hierarchy that exists. Namely
Pgroup
++Pclasse
Application Software
++Database Software
++Spreadsheet Software
So a 2-level hierarchy. I'd like to understand this simple concept first. I built on the knowledge that I gain. So the questions are:
1.What do I need to do to make the table so that I can use a hierarchical query on it?
2. How should the query syntax be?
3. Is it also possible to get the data in the hierarchical query sorted asec?
I would only like to use the simple structures of the start with and connect by clauses first. I've read there are some new additions to 10G. The problem with the examples used by the tutorials is that the tables are already made so that they are suitable for hierarchical queries. I hope to understand it by this example. And take it a step further.
Sincerely,
PetePrimarily hierarchy query serves to process tree-like structures which RDBMS simulates using through parent-child relation, often in a single table (see famoust
EMP table where employee can have the manager who is an employee at the same time).
In your case it could look like:
SQL> select pgroup, pclass from flatfile;
PGROUP PCLASS
Application Software Database Software
Application Software Database Software
Application Software Spreadsheet Software
Monitor 15"
Monitor 15"
Monitor 17"
Monitor 19"
Processor AMD
Processor Intel
Application Software
Monitor
Processor
12 rows selected.
SQL> select decode(level,1,pclass,' ' || pclass), Manufacturer from flatfile
2 start with pgroup is null
3 connect by prior pclass = pgroup
4 /
DECODE(LEVEL,1,PCLASS,''||PCLASS MANUFACTURER
Application Software
Database Software Oracle
Database Software Microsoft
Spreadsheet Software Microsoft
Monitor
15" Acer
15" Sony
17" Philips
19" Viewsonic
Processor
AMD AMD
Intel Intel
12 rows selected.The hierarchy syntax is described completely in the documentation including
LEVEL and PRIOR keywords.
As for the ordering question you can use siblings ordering:
SQL> select decode(level,1,pclass,' ' || pclass), Manufacturer from flatfile
2 start with pgroup is null
3 connect by prior pclass = pgroup
4 order siblings by 1 desc
5 /
DECODE(LEVEL,1,PCLASS,''||PCLASS MANUFACTURER
Processor
Intel Intel
AMD AMD
Monitor
19" Viewsonic
17" Philips
15" Acer
15" Sony
Application Software
Spreadsheet Software Microsoft
Database Software Oracle
Database Software Microsoft
12 rows selected.Rgds. -
Desperate help need with Document Listener
I'm working on a very cool freeware Java text editor, that is working beautifully, except for the code used to change the color of reserved words, etc, on the fly...
At the moment, I use a documentlistener. When text is inserted, I need to color some of that text automatically. However, when I try to call setCharacterAttributes in DefaultStyledDocument, it causes a runtime exception, Illegal State Exception (Attempt to mutate in notification)>
I understand how this exception is caused, but how do I get around it?Thanks for the replies. They were very helpful, and I have now managed to sort the problem, although in a different way that involves using the key listening class you can add to containers...
The java editor is called j-Scribe, and is a text editor dedicated to java. I've designed it to be more user friendly than other text editors, with a useful interface. The code dispplay is all highlighted, and clicking on a brace collapses that section of code, to make larger classes easier to work through... There are also some nifty filemanagement windows, including a history pane similar to IE6, and one click access to all open files, and one click access to all of their save and close functions... There are wizards to automate creation of certain elements of code, and eventually a number of intelligent features will be added. The program makes extensive use of xml to store all of the information generated by the program.
I'm working on the alpha version right now, for release in about two weeks. The beta will be out three - four weeks after that, and the release should be late September / early October time...
If you're interested, e-mail me and I'll add you to the list for the alpha and beta test releases...

Desperate Help Needed re CS6 Activation/Installation Problem
A few months ago, I purchased the full retail version of CS6 (Design Standard) for Windows. I installed it on a new clean computer running Windows 7 and activated and registered it. The installation, activation and registration process went smoothly, and initially everything seemed OK.
A little over a month ago, the nightmare started. Since then, each time I try to run any of the CS6 components, I get a message telling me it "thinks" I have the trial version installed (even though I actually installed and activated the full version) and asks me if I want to "start the trial" or "license this software." If I choose "license" it asks for my serial number (which has already been entered numerous times) and it then seems to be OK -- for a while. However, within a short period of time, the problem is back, and the cycle starts again.
I have tried on numerous occasions (and spent countless dozens of hours) attempting to resolve this through Adobe support, both via telephone and via "chat." Each time, I wind up telling the same story to several different people, re-explaining it until they apparently understand it, and then getting transferred around to several people until I finally get to somebody who, supposedly, can help. Then, that individual walks me through the same things that have already been tried several times before. Finally, I am assured that the problem has been fixed, and am also assured that they will keep the case open. Each time, the problem has not been fixed, and I find that the case has been closed (so that the only way I can try to communicate is by starting all over, wasting more hours trying to get through, and ultimately again getting to somebody who has no idea what to do other than to tell me to do the same things that have already proven themselves (several times) not to work).
The result of all this is that I have a $1200 piece of software which is totally useless.
Perhaps somebody from Adobe can help me with how to take this to the next level so that it gets to somebody with the knowledge to figure out how to fix the problem. If anybody other than from Adobe has dealt with a similar problem, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Robert Rothman (a very dissatisfied customer)
Edit: To be clear, this was not purchased via download; I installed from physical disks.Rob you may find this interesting...Adobe Customer Care sent me an email today in reguards to the problem I (we) have all been having...entering serial number numerious times in order to launch the CS6 program. This is what they sent me...
"With this response, we believe your issue is resolved and have therefore closed your case 0183753409. If your support case has not been completed to your satisfaction or you should need to contact us on this issue again, please reference your case number. You can reopen your case up to 14 days after it has been closed."
Then they continue with...
"Thank you for contacting Adobe technical support.
Thank you for updating the dependency information. We discussed this case again with our development team and they have informed that we do not have a solution for this issue at this point in time. You need to enter the serial number and activate the software each time you launch a 64 bit CS6 application. I would like to tell you that this is a rare incident and we are extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. We are closing this case now. We will get back to you once we have a fix for your issue.
I request you to contact us back via Live Chat for further questions."
So basically they are telling me (us) there is no fix and they do not have a plan for when there will be one, and that this problem is a rare incident. I'm not buying the rare incident statement what about you? I would be very interested to know just how many people out there are having this problem?
I am very disappointed in Adobe. How can they close my case saying the issue is resolved when infact it is not? I am also wondering why they have not already fixed this problem as it seems to have been around for quite awhile. Not really sure what else to do as Adobe seems not to be very concerned about customers spending hundreds of dollars for a program they know has this crazy annoying problem.
I've entered my serial number so many times I almost have the whole number memorized! What a pain to have to enter it about every other time I want to access my CS6 program! I'm a Very Very Unhappy Customer!!!
Good Luck Rob I hope you have better luck than me! I'm going to keep checking back to this posts discussion so if you do find a fix please post it here so we will all know about it. Thanks...
Jeff, Thanks, I did finally find a browser that would let me actually access my open (but now closed) case but I had to try three different ones before it worked. Google Chrome worked, Internet Explorer and Foxfire did not! FYI
Chesterr, I will try the steps you suggested but I do not have high hopes in them working to solve our problem. Thanks... -

I am at a complete loss as to what to do. Flash will not download on my PC windows 7 computer no matter how many times I try. I click on the link and go through the whole process of downloading the installation file but then nothing happens just a big black box popping up with no prompts and nothing being installed. I am at my wit's end and am in desperate need of what's wrong. Is it my anti virus software? Is it my firefox? I am in desperate need of help. Please advise ASAP.

Help needed in understanding conversion alghorithm from byte to hex
Hi, I'm studying the following code:
public static char[] byteToHex(byte[] data) {
char[] retValue = new char[data.length * 2];
int value = 0;
int highIndex = 0;
int lowIndex = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < retValue.length; i++) {
value = (data[i] + 256) % 256;
highIndex = value >> 4;
lowIndex = value & 0x0f;
retValue[i * 2 + 0] = hexTable[highIndex];
retValue[i * 2 + 1] = hexTable[lowIndex];
return retValue;
}There are few things (the most important) which I don't understand about the above code.
I understood that what's returned has got double size related to what's passed in because a char takes 16 bits while a byte takes 8.
1) I don't understand why each byte must be first added 256 and then % with 256 (returning the same value - Is this to eliminate negative values?)
2) I do understand that each byte is transformed in two hexadecimal values: one is the highIndex (first 8 bits) and the second is the lowerIndex (last 8 bits) and that each value is tranformed in its hexadecimal value from the array of hex values.
3) What I don't really understand is why the highIndex is calculated as: value >> 4
and the lowest index is calculated as value 0x0f (is this last also to eliminate negative values?)
If someone could clarify this for me, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks.
MarcoSo, does this mean that we add 256 to eliminate the sign?No. You need the whole line to convert a signed byte into an int between 0 and 255.
A simpler way to do this would be
value = data[i] & 0xFF;
This moves down the higher bits so that it turnsinto lower bits. i.e. we need it to >be between 0 and
15.
Is this shifted of 4 because Math.pow(2, 4) = 16.0?Doing in this case, x >>4 is the same as x / 16
This leaves only the lowest 4 bits.Is the following what happens?There are no char values produced. Using 0000 as an example is not a good idea as you can change it in many ways and it is still 0000
>
Received as initial value:
byte: 0000 0000
What we need to obtain:
char: 0000 0000 0000 0000
The first 4 bits of the above byte are shifted of 4
positions to find the hexadecimal equivalent (if from
2 I want to get to 16 I have to do the opposite of
powering a number by 4); The last four bits of the
byte are extracted because of the '&' operator with
0x0f (which in binary is 1111 - Therefore all the '1'
are kept)?Yes. -

But....Power gone?;-)
Okay back to topic: I read this from somewhere: SAP SRM enables the full range of supply and procurement activities, closing the loop from strategy stage to execution. SAP SRM will help you optimize operations and put together a world-class supply and procurement operation, with a scalable platform and an easy-to-use business user interface that enables processes in the following key areas:
For switching in SRM you must have basic knowledge of SAP enterprise buyer and SAP solution manager where as few basic knowledge of MM would also helpful. The must is Domain knowledge towards Management skills not towards MM configuration.

Automation Problem - Desperate Help Needed
Hi
Was wondering if anyone can help or has had the sameproblem?
I have nearly finished a remix project in Logic and I amcoming to the final stages of automating effects etc.
All of a sudden, my automation is not recording on certain tracks.
I am simply trying to automate the cut-off on the Filterplug-in, but have subsequently realised that it is also happening with volume and any other type of automation.
I thought it might be something to do with the massive synth– but the same is happening with the EXS and ES2 etc.
I have done a lot of testing and opened up a new project andcopied over the settings and midi-regions and automation records absolutely fine!
I even tried to get round it by sending the output to a bus and effecting the bus then trying to automate the bus once adding to the arrange! No Joy! Still failed?!
It seems that it is a bug within my project?!
A black line appears and even if I try and manually drawautomation the line just disappears.
It is definitely not what I am doing, as I have replicated the process in a fresh project and it works fine.
Are you only allowed so many channels of automation?
Funnily, during my testing when I try and delete the trackto start a fresh – it says – 'Do you want to delete automation'! but there isclearly none on display and I am not hearing any!
It feels like a bug – but wondered if anyone else had any issues?
It is only affecting certain tracks, but I cannot see a correlation between them?!
I am about to start replicating everything in a new project! Huge job – but I need to automate forthe final mix and its due by Friday – I am really frustrated by this!
Can Apple help me?
Thanks in advance
SteveSteve,
I haven't seen this behavior before, but it sounds like a corrupted file. It doesn't happen often, but it does, and can happen.
If you are not having similar problems in a new template, than moving everything over to a new session would be advised, at this point.
Logic 9's new track import feature will make this A LOT easier than it ever was.
Read up on how this is done, but you should be able to copy EVERYTHING over to a new session in one swoop -

I'm a beginner in using LabView programming. Can anybody help with implementing Labview 6 and Keithley 2400 SourceMeter for data aquisition? I've wired up the hardware and have problem coming up with the software.. Any idea how to get started?Hello giam,
I made wrapper vi's for the standard GPIB Read/Write functions to
handle errors (using green icons to distinguish them better). The "send
mult" handles simple strings (like standard GPIB Write) and array of
strings (you often need to send more than one string to a device). But
generally those icons have the same main functionality like standard
GPIB...
To send an array of strings you put the GPIB Write into a for loop and
connect the array as input with autoindexing enabled (as standard).
Maybe a small delay will help for some devices, the K2400 should do
without.
Edited: The greenish delay icon is just a standard "Wait ms" with
additional error cluster in/out to allow dataflow programming...

Desperate help needed to configure WVC210 for remote access?
Hi, I'm new and desperately need some help on setting up my WVC210 for remote access.
I manage to setup and see images from my WVC210 using my home LAN via both wired and also wireless.
I have 2 questions:
(a) for wireless connection, i only manage to get connection to my WVC210 if i disable the wireless security from my router. But that means i'm opening my wireless LAN to everyone. How can i still get connection to the camera if i enable the wireless security from my router. (FYI: my router is 2Wire ADSL from Singnet Mio)
(b) how can i get connection to my WVC210 from outside or in my office? I type in the camera Fixed IP address (displayed on the front screen) on the web browser, by it shows a error page. Is there some setting that i might need to adjust ?
Pls kindly help me
Thank you.Bernard,
For Item (2) is there any difference between the camera built-in dyndns updater versus the software updater? I am under the impression that the software updater is easier to manage.
The biggest difference for you is that the camera always stays at the same location, and the laptop goes with you. Every time you access the internet from a different location with the laptop the software updater is sending the new IP address to dyndns.com. This causes you to lose access to your camera because the FQDN doesn't point to your home IP address anymore. Once the dyndns credentials are in the camera (or router) there is no management needed. The device will automatically update dyndns.com with your new IP address as it changes, and you do not need to do anything.
For Item (3), are you saying port forward 1025 is it for the 2nd camera only or for both? Or is it 2nd camera use 1025 and first camera use 8080?
Here's an example of what I mean:
Camera 1: 192.168.1.210 port 1024. In router, forward port 1024 to 192.168.1.210
Local Access: http://192.168.1.210:1024
Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1024 (Example)
Camera 2: 192.168.1.211 port 1025. In router, forward port 1025 to 192.168.1.211
Local Access: http://192.168.1.211:1025
Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1025 (Example)
Camera 3: 192.168.1.212 port 1026. In router, forward port 1026 to 192.168.1.212
Local Access: http://192.168.1.212:1026
Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1026 (Example)
to access the 2 camera outside, do i have to have another dyndns host name or can i use the current one for both camera?
As you can see in the above example, the dyndns name remains the same for remote access to all three cameras. The only change is the port number at the end. Your router will translate the port number to the IP address that the port is forwarded to, allowing you to select the camera that you wish to view by changing the port number in the address.
I was actually thinking that the camera web browser can show 2 camera at the same time. Is it possible?
No. Each browser window will display a single camera. You can however opens multiple instances of your browser to allow viewing of more than one camera simultaneously. A better solution is to install the Video Monitoring Software that is included with the camera which allows you to view multiple cameras in the same window. -
Help needed in understanding GridBagLayout situation
I have a JPanel with a JInternalFrame and a few JPanels inside of it. The JPanel is using GridBagLayout.
When a user moves the JInternalFrame inside of the panel what is happening exactly? How is it moving the frame with relation to the Layout? It doesn't appear to be bound by the Layout. When the user drags the frame to a new location what methods are being invoked?Having looked at the JXMapViewer which extedns XJPanel and XJPanel extends JPanel.
so if you want to get notified you need to add ComponentListener to the instance of JXMapViewer to get notificed when the following happens
The below is a copy from java tutorial for internalframe and I have added the MyComponentListener just to give you some ideas.
Hope this could help
