Does a useful link page really help

I was wondering if I should scrap my useful links page as it
takes some time to maintain every once in a while. I would like my
site to be as simple as possible. But does a useful links page to
other websites really help your site in its position in search
engines. Thanks.

> Their linking to your pages will
Not necessarily. If they are Microsoft or Adobe, then yes.
But Joe the
Plumber? Not so much. An incoming link from a poorly ranked
site has no
benefit at all. An incoming link from a link farm site can
actually
penalize you.

Does anyone use RH7 for online help on their websites?

Hi,
I'm finding that this product isn't usable for online help
within a website. Using the RH_ShowHelp() JavaScript calling
convestions triggers popup blockers on most of the major platforms
(Windows/IE, FF, Mac/FF). I don't understand why this is happenning
since the help and the page that links to the help are in the same
domain. Requiring customers to manually reconfigure their popup
blockers is not a viable solution.
On the one where it works (Mac/Safari) I'm left with a very
tiny window in the lower right corner. Expanding it shows the help,
but the page in the content pane is the file-not-found page
(clicking items in the navigation brings up the correct page). I'm
also seeing on the Mac (FF & Safari) that the Index &
Search areas aren't searchable like they are in Windows (no input
box to search with).
When we asked Adobe about this the answer was more or less -
"that's how it works" and they gave us a link to the following page
detailing the limitations by browser (notice that it hasn't been
updated since 2004 and the newest IE is IE4).
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=rb_69353b&sliceId=2
I was hoping there would be a new RoboHelp_CSH.js file (it's
dated 2004) Ideally one that didn't rely on browser sniffing but
instead checked for JavaScript capabilitites.
We missed testing this part when evaluating the product and
now it feels like a dead end.
Needless to say we've started moving on to other help
systems, but maybe someone can help save RH for us before we write
it off completely.

Welcome to our community, wjens
Hopefully you realize that you aren't forced to use the
WebHelp API to establish links to help.
Take a look at the following links:

Text doesn't show, scroll bar does? using Flash CS3 Please help!

A little background: I made text box, typed some text, converted it to a movie clip, named etc. Used a purchased and proven scroller component ... followed directions to the letter, including referencing/linking the files. However, when I tried to test the scroll bar .... the scroll bar appears, scrolls and works perfectly except the text does not appear. I have tried making a scroll bar with the UIscrollbar same thing happens. I made an other attempt and put pics along with the text in the movie clip ... this time the pics appeared and scrolled, but the text still would not appear. PLEASE HELP. I am on a deadline and can't get past this scroll bar issue. THANK YOU!

Hi
Thanks for the tip. I did embed the text, but still not showing. Currently, I have the text box set to the following: Dynamic Text, Multiline, Border Around text, Anti-Alias for Animation (but I have tried all choices and embed the text each time).
Here are the original instructions with the FTscrollbar which I followed exactly.
1. Drag the component (FTscrollbar) from the components panel to the stage.
2. Create a new movie clip to be scrolled:
     a. create a textfield on the scene and type in a few lines of text
     b. select the text fields and covert them to a move clip symbol having the registration point top left. (I did top right since my scroll bar is on the right).
     c. give the new movie clip an name in properties panel.
3.Select the component of the stage and configure its parameters in the parameters panel or component inspector panel.
     a. Instruc the component to scroll the new created movie clip as the targetMovieClip
     b. Set the viewAreaHeight and viewAreaWidth
     c. set snapMode to snapToView value
     d. leave rest of parameters unchanged unless you want to adjust.
4. Test Movie (contol/test movie)
On the FTscrollbar, I have the targetMovieClip set to the movieclips name the only other parameters the instructions said to change were veiwAreaHeight=100 veiwAreaWidth=150 which were the defaults. When I change this numbers the scroll bar goes away and the text still doesn't appear? The scroll bar is 16 x 140, the text box to be scrolled is 130 x 143 and the entire flash page is 500 x 550. I am not sure what the viewAreaHeight and viewAreaWidth are for ... or if that could be the problem? I have never had problems with scrollers but I used MX. I just recently purchased the CS3 and I am not sure what I am not selecting or not selecting but if feel it's probably something simple I am overlooking. So any more ideas are MOST APPRECIATED. If you need more info from me to help solve, please feel free to ask. THANKS!

What tool does Macromedio use for on-line help?

Does anyone know what kind of tool or set of templates
macromedia uses for
their very excellent html-based on-line help files?
Thanks,
Keith

As a guess, I'd say that they use RoboHelp:

A cheaper alternative is Help & Manual which I use:

Scrolling down and using links to anchors aren't in sync

This video shows a site I'm creating. I start in design mode. Then I click to preview. As I Scroll down and the page stops too soon. When I use the links to anchors it goes all the way down. How can I get the page to work the same when scrolling as it does when using links to anchors?
I noticed that when I use the links to anchors the bottom portion of the menu gets pushed down a couple of inches. That seems to be the problem. Why does using anchors do this and how can I fix it?

You want to precompose your stills and the track mattes together. The composition should look like the stills with a rounded rectangle border. Then animate the composition.

Slow Loading On iWeb Pages - Really in Need of Help! (Thanks!!) :o)

Hi Everyone!
I have been a lurker here, learning from reading other's posts. I am in serious need of help, as I have been struggling with this issue for over a week and I can't move forward to other things until I get it resolved...
Here's what's up: I am creating a single-page website as a landing page for a product I offer. (These are very common now in product marketing). The page is here: http://www.howtogetamazingrelationships.com.
The page that is there is about the 4th iteration of the page in the quest for a faster-loading page. Everytime I test it - no matter what I do - it ends up being about a 24 second load time. Here's a sample test for review: http://tools.pingdom.com/?url=howtogetamazingrelationships.com&treeview=0&column =objectID&order=1&type=0&save=true
Here are the things I have done to try to speed this baby up:
1. Took my youtube video off auto-play.
2. Optimized the site using Web Site Maestro. 27% decrease in size; no load time difference.
3. Took out shapes and graphics.
4. Rebuilt the site on a blank template - now it is actually a little worse!
5. Took out the website.js file - totally messed things up.
6. Eliminated the navigation.
Nothing is even showing the least bit of difference in speed...and it is driving me crazy.
Here's the thing - I have also contacted Web Site Maestro's support for help, and they said that the problem was the size of the site and the length of the page. But here's the thing - I checked the load speed of a page that is about double my page size and length, and it loads in like 4 seconds: http://tools.pingdom.com/?url=http://www.wealthbeyondreason.com/page2.php&treevi ew=0&column=objectID&order=1&type=0&save=true
Anyone have help/advice for me? I am so frustrated with this, as the iWeb is crazy-easy to build, but I can't have a simple one-page product page load that slow. No one is going to stay around for 24 seconds!
I just am at the end up my rope and don't know anything else to do. I really don't want to rebuild the site again and still not see results, so any help would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks so much in advance, and I hope you are all having a beautiful day -
:o) Tara

Okay, more info -
I checked my site on a different web analyzer, and it does seem to be loading quickly - 15.66 seconds for a 56 k, but only 3.6 for T1. So that is good -
One thing I noticed in the recommendations is that there are 6 scripts that are running, that can slow things down. I don't really know how to change that (I am pretty web-savvy, but far from a developer) Here's what they recommended on the page -
Analysis and Recommendations from webanalyzer.com:
TOTAL_OBJECTS - Caution. You have 18 total objects on this page. From 12 to 20 objects per page, the latency due to object overhead makes up from 75% to 80% of the delay of the average web page. See Figure II-3: Relative distribution of latency components showing that object overhead dominates web page latency in Website Optimization Secrets for more details. Consider reducing, eliminating, and combining external objects (graphics, CSS, JavaScript, iFrames and XHTML) to reduce the total number of objects, and thus separate HTTP requests. Consider using CSS sprites to help consolidate decorative images.
TOTAL_IMAGES - Caution. You have a moderate amount of images on this page (10 ). Consider using fewer images on the site or try reusing the same image in multiple pages to take advantage of caching. Using CSS techniques such as colored backgrounds, borders, or spacing instead of graphic techniques can help reduce HTTP requests.
TOTAL_SCRIPT - Warning! The total number of external script files on this page is 6 , consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Combine, refactor, and minify to optimize your JavaScript files. Ideally you should have one (or even embed scripts for high-traffic pages) on your pages. Consider suturing JavaScript files together at the server to minimize HTTP requests. Placing external JavaScript files at the bottom of your BODY, and CSS files in the HEAD enables progressive display in XHTML web pages.
HTML_SIZE - Caution. The total size of this HTML file is 60492 bytes, which is above 50K but below 100K. With 50K of images and multimedia this means that your page will load in about 20 seconds. Consider optimizing your HTML and eliminating unnecessary features. To give your users feedback, consider layering your page or using positioning to display useful content within the first two seconds.

Hi. Does using the cover lock help battery life?

Hi. Does using the cover lock help battery life?

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
The issue your having is with the way Keynote takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
If you want to show a wesite or another app on either display, use application switcher:
press the the command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command > tab to return to Keynote.

How to invoke a jsp page from java which does not use Servlets?

Hello,
I am working in Documentum. I am trying to invoke a jsp page from another java page which does not use Servlets.
I tried doing this by just instantiating the java class related to the jsp page from my present java class.In my java class related to the jsp page, I have defined onInit() and onRender() methods.
Now, I am trying to call the jsp page from my present java class by just instantiating the java class related to the jsp page. This throws a java.lang.NullPointerException.
Any comments or suggestions on this.Any help would be appreciated.

Why does safari display empty page when localhost service are requested using https?

Why does safari display empty page when localhost service are requested using https and port 37542 (https://localhost:37542/), but displays page properly when regular port is used (https://localhost/).
Both links return the same json response and work properly in other browsers. Certificate for localhost service was installed to the storage.

Problem solved.
I added headers for localhost service response and page displayed normally.

Does thread pool really help

Friends,
I wanted your opinion on whether thread pools really help. Some people are of the opinion that thread pools don't really make much difference. On what basis should I make a decision whether to go for a pool or not? Is the reason that I want to limit the number of threads spawned a valid reason for pooling or it depends on the fact that for how much duration each of the threads is going to remain busy?
Can anyone please comment?
Thanks,
praddyB

I have run into a similar question.
The answer is, as usual, "it depends".
One delegates work to worker thread if things to be done are too long to wait for completion. This is a true sentence.
I have found that it is worth to use pool of worker threads if I need to spawn multiple, but not concurently accessing resources, lengthy tasks which should not wait for each other.
That applies to threads. It provides no basis for pools.
If tasks are to access same resource there is no point in getting a separate thread for each of them. One may get into many deadlocking troubles.
Not sure what you mean by that. If you are actually deadlocking on a single resource then you are doing something weird. Deadlocks result due to multiple resources (and incorrect access).
[http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-10-2001/jw-1012-deadlock.html]
Blocking on the other hand occurs with a single resource. Obviously if a single resource is used exclusively or primarily in thread processing then either don't use threads or re-arch to split it up.
Worker thread/pool is usually an application wide resource where one does throw "things to be done in background" or "things which can't hold current thread code flow".
Threads, pooled or not, can be the primary focus of the application. I would suppose that when someone considers using a pool that in fact in almost all cases the work tasks to be done are either the primary or a substantial part of the processing.
