Easiest way to add a calculator to a BC site

Just wondering if there's another way - or if anyone has done this before - of having a calculator on a website, not using php.
Javascript? Anyone know sites that have done this?
Just need to calculate energy savings, by entering in number of lightbulbs, wattages etc,
Cheers, Dave

Hi Dave,
I have written one on a site.
Does exactly what you are asking.
Happy to help.

What's the easiest way to add storage to a mac mini. (1TB hard drive but only 32G of real storage). External device, internal or partitioning?

What's the easiest way to add storage to a mac mini. (1TB hard drive but only 32G of real storage). External device, internal or is there some way to partition? I tried doing so but received a message that there wasn't enough free space to partition. Seems like a 1TB drive should have more storage than my Ipad

Its worth confirming what free space you have on your drive:
go to: Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info > Storage
The bar chart shows how much free space there is on the drive:
Please realise that partitioning does not create extra space so this wont help you.
If your free space is less than 20 % you should get extra storage with an external USB or Firewire drive, any make or model will work.

Easiest way to add video? (preferably free)

I have a client with television adds who wants to add them to the website. I don't have any linear editing software, just the DMX Zone free extension which does not look terribly promising...

Which file format are they in? Do they require much editing? If not, you might get away with simply encoding them for Flash Video using the Adobe Flash encoder, RIVA or some other low cost converter.

Easiest way to add a double stroke to text / or object in Illustrator 10

New to the forum and wondered if someone can help me find a solution in adding a double stroke to text or an object? I have illustrator 10 (Mac). Thanks Also, should I be in a different forum section or is this correct?

Go to window/appearance and add as many strokes and fills you want, and reorder as you need
here you can see a movie on how it works, no matter the video is in AiCS3, works the same in Ai10.

What is the best way to add a blog to a flash site?

I am just about wrapping up the construction of my site and I am left with my last small project--a blog. I would like the site and the blog to run on the same parent site and to be as uniform as possible. What would be the best way to do this? I am also looking for RSS and Facebook "Like" functionality as well. Some things to consider would be speed, ease of use, etc.
Here is what I was thinking:
1) I can create the blog in html, but I would like the navigation from within the SWF to be functional as well. Is there a way to create links in an html doc to navigate to a specific page within a SWF? I know how to link outside an SWF. By doing this, I think I could recreate the navigation with XML. If so, I believe I can accomplish my other goals.
2) The other option I was thinking of would be to create the blog within the SWF itself. If I were to do this, is there any way to inlcude RSS, within the SWF?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I am still quite new to development so I figured I would get some "best practices" insight prior to starting.
I published the site if it is of any assistance: http://stephenpappasphoto.com/
Thanks,
-SP

1) You can use frame anchors to link to particular labeled frames in a swf. I've never used them, but it is supposed to work. You assign the frame label and then designate it to be an Anchor in the Label type drop down in the Properties panel.
2) RSS is basically just XML by a different name, which Flash can process directly. Here's a link to a tutorial that might help...

Opinions needed on best way to add a mobile site

We have an existing somewhat older website that does not nicely support mobile devices. While it looks and works fine on tablets, it becomes somewhat unusable on smartphones. We do not have the time/dollars at this point to start from scratch and rebuild with all of the latest bells and whistles. So the question becomes what is the cleanest/fastest/easiest way to add a mobile website. In trying to research this answer, it appears there is no one right answer. I actually have found many possibilities. Right now I have Dreamweaver CS5 and am not going to upgrade any time soon or change tools.
Here are some possibilities I'm considering:
Adding a new "home" page and letting the user decide to either "go lean and mobile" or go wide screen and use the full website. This doesn't seem too bad to me since I'm clearly going to have to maintain 2 websites in the near term.
From there I see choices where the direction is chosen based on the OS or it is chosen based on the screen size. I have seen some based on Javascript and some CSS based. It just gets pretty confusing to know which is best.
We are adding online ordering (pizza place) and want to definitely make it useable for the mobile world. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
As a follow on question, how big of a problem would we run into (how many phone users might we anger) if we used a js based menu on our mobile sit?. Not sure how many devices/OS don't support javascript.
Thanks so much!
Donna

If you go down this slippery slope, trying to identify mobile user-agents is the single biggest obstacle you will face. The list is understandably huge and constantly changing. To make matters worse, many browsers pretend to be other browsers. So sniffing for mobile devices and redirecting them to your mobile only site is not only a major chore, it's not even 100% reliable. And then there's the matter of maintaining 2 separate sites... Oh, don't even go there.
Re-code your current site to make it Responsive. Below are several Frameworks you can use to jump start your new layouts.
Foundation Zurb
http://foundation.zurb.com/templates.php
Skeleton Boilerplate
http://www.getskeleton.com/
Initializr (HTML5 Boilerplate, Responsive or Bootstrap)

Whichever menu system you choose, it needs to be user friendly for desktops as well as touch screen devices. CSS styled lists are the foundation to build on. Then you can add jQuery MeanMenu to make it mobile friendly. I have a working example of it below (resize your browser viewport):

Best way/easiest way to Watermark using Aperture 3

I was just curious the easiest way to add a watermark to my pictures in Aperutre 3. I've used Pixelmator in the past , and was happy with it, but can't download the trial again. I was just curious if anyone knew an easy way to create the watermark (like on what program) and then transfer it on to my Aperture pictures. Any thoughts? Thank you

This has been discussed here in the past so searching for 'watermark' in the forum will turn up some useful info.
Briefly to create a watermark file you need to be able to produce either a psd file or a tiff with a program that supports transparency. Again a search of the web will turn up many suggestions. Some possibilities are Photoshop (expensive), Gimp (free) and I've even done it using Keynote which is part of iWorks.
Hope this helps.

How do I add a blog to my Muse site?

Is there a widget or something I can throw onto a page and have people post comments?
Or more importantly, can I just allow my customer to post "News" through In-Browser editing? (Do I just throw a text block on a page and title it, "News" and let them add to it)?
What if they wanted to add photos to their "News" or "Blog" page?

You can absolutely insert a blog into your Adobe Muse site. Most instructions for doing this involve creating a WordPress hosted blog, then embedding that into a Muse page with 'Insert HTML', which creates an iframe with your blog inside.
While embedding an existing blog with an iframe within a Muse page works, it isolates the blog's content from being considered in the main site's SEO, since it's pages are not actually on the site's server.
The simplest way, and it's very simple, is to install a WordPress, or any other, blog into a folder in your site named 'blog'. Pick a theme that enables you to mimic your main as closely as you care to. Then create a link in your main site's menu to link to the blog folder. Here's an example...
http://creativeillusions.biz
You can also use a blank WordPress theme with no header or footer at all - only the blog posts and sidebar(for categories and recent posts, etc.). Use that theme with a locally installed WordPress blog, them embed that blog in an iframe, and you'd have a very functional blog that can perfectly fit your Muse site's theme, since it's header and footer will actually be the ones on your main site. Plus, since it's actually hosted along with your Muse site's files, it's available for the site's SEO.
For SEO purposes, you'll need to add your blog folder manually to your sitemap.xml. This is a bit of a hassle, since you'll need to add the blog's entry into your sitemap.xml each time that you re-upload your site, since that actually writes a new version of the sitemap.xml over the existing one. Still, it's a very simple way to add a blog to your Muse site.

What is the easiest way to access the router from an iPad? I have no problems accessing it from my laptop. Even though I am entering the address in the left address box, not the Google search box, it wants to do either a search, or add www to the beginning of the IP address.
I usually can eventually access the router, but it is way to much trouble. However, I use my iPad hundreds of times more often than my laptop.

Are you typing http:// in front of the IP address of the router? e.g. http://192.168.0.1
Sometimes, and with some routers it doesn't seem to like it if you miss off the http://

Web - What is easiest way to implement User Security and User Profiles

Hi, I am new to these forums and kind of new to Java. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum!
Bit of background to my experience with java
I have been playing about with java for a number of years and have created a few basic programs such as a screen shot tool that allows you to capture to default locations and look at previews first etc. I am now venturing into web related stuff. I work in IT doing systems testing and have done bits of basic development on various things.
What I've done so far
I am using Netbeans IDE 6.7 and MySQL 5.0
I am trying to learn more complex java and have decided to try build a basic web / database system that basically implements adding / amending / deleting data from a MySQL database through web pages. I am now trying to implement basic user access and profiles. I have so far got the following:
- MySQL table with user info - username / password
- JSP page with usual login stuff
- Servlet that validates the username and password - if correct forwards to main menu page.
Its as simple as that - there is nothing stopping you just typing in the URL of the main menu page and going from there.
What I want
I am wanting to eventually get the following:
- User authentication so that you have to logon before you can access anything else
- User profiles that determine what each user can or can't do, restricting the pages / services / options available (i.e. normal user can't delete etc)
- Would it need some sort of session manager to allow multiple users etc?
I appreciate this is a fairly open question but what is the easiest way to start implementing this? Not after specific code as I would prefer to try figger things out myself, but a point in the right direction would be great. It doesn't have to be extremely secure as this is just for me at the minute.
I have spent all day looking at things like session data / url rewriting / security settings in web.xml / bespoke servlets and am now in java overload!

Hi everyone,
I've now actually gone back to the tutorial that I linked to above and implemented that using form login and j_security_check.
Agree with Saish, and although I don't know enough about the other options to give a good reason, using realms and j_security_check just seems to be a bit cluncky and messy. I would also prefer something a bit more generic, that doesn't rely on setting users in glassfish, hence why I started with my own user table.
Anyway, I will leave it as is for now and maybe come back and try one of the other options.
The only problem I can see now is that to add users i will need to go through all the steps of adding users in glassfish and web.xml... Is there a way to do this through a servlet or something so I can have a jsp page to add users that also creats all the other bits for it to work?
Thanks everyone for your help

What is the easiest way to create and manage very big forms?

I need to create a form that will contain few hundred questions. Could you please give me some advise on what is the easiest way to do that? I mean for example is it easier to create everything in Word (since it is easier to manage) and than create a form based on that?
My concern is that when I will have a very big form, containing different kinds of questions and with many scripts, managing it during work will be slow and difficult, for example adding a question in the middle of the form which would require moving half of the questions down which could smash the layout etc.
What is the best practise for that?
Thanks in advance

Try using Table and Rows for this kind of forms. These forms will have the same look throught with a question and and answer section..
In the future if you want to add a new section, you can simply add rows in between..
Thanks

Easiest Way to Move Media from One External Drive to Another?

My MacBook Pro only has a 500GB hard drive and I currently have all my movies on a 1TB external hard drive. Everything works fine through iTunes, but now since the 1TB is maxed out, I'd like to use my new 2TB external hard drive going forward. I understand that I need to re-route where iTunes finds the movies, but what is the easiest way to make the conversion from the 1TB to the 2TB?
I have copied all movies from the 1TB to the 2TB. Is the only thing left to do is re-route the location to the 2TB? Or do I need to drag and drop all movies into iTunes (they're all already in there)? Just didn't know if I needed to add them into iTunes again so they know to point to the 2TB drive. (sorry if I didn't explain that good!)
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks Limnos! Really appreciate the help!
To clarify:
- I currently have only movies on the external 1TB drive (which iTunes points too). The downside is that I ALWAYS have to have my external drive plugged in, in order to play on Apple TV (or view on MacBook). I have appx. over 500GBs of movies on my external 1TB.
- All music (appx. 200GBs) is currently on my internal hard disk, but with a 500GB internal hard drive, that's going to fill up quickly (just so you know - I already have about 125GBs of pics in iPhoto AND work in Photoshop regularly so PSDs lessen my internal 500GB space quickly).
Eventhough I HATE having to keep an external drive plugged into my MacBook, I'm just going to have to suck it up and get used to it so I will have more space and my MacBook will run faster.
With that in mind, I was thinking about moving my music (200GBs) onto my 2TB external drive (along with the movies). So that would leave roughly the photos and Photoshop files (and random other things that are small in size) on my internal drive.
I could start all over and delete all movies that are in iTunes (the application - not the folders) and then drag and drop them into iTunes from the new 2TB, but I wasn't sure all the metadata (really the cover artwork) would be attached when I did that? Going that route really doesn't bother me since I've already copied all movies files from my 1TB to my 2TB. Basically, I would be starting over from scratch as if the old 1TB never existed.
Trying to run this through my mind and come up with the best/easiest way. What I don't want to do is try and find cover artwork for the almost 300 movies I have (and all the cover artwork for the CDs I have too if I decide to keep my music on the 2TB external drive).
Hope that helps and makes sense? Thanks again!

What is the easiest way to create alias email addresses in exchange 2013?

For example my official domain is [email protected]
Within my company i want to make it look like certain departments are sending from bicycles.com skateboards.com
and skooters.com and receive to those addresses even though the emails are really going through the
[email protected] domain. but it appears to be coming from three other domains.
appearance is everything. What is the easiest way to accomplish this.
Step by step with examples if possible. I am not well versed in exchange server 2013 yet.
Droid Hacker

In Exchange 2013 you can use the ECP to add additional email addresses to mailboxes. In order for a mailbox to send using an address, that address needs to be set as the reply address. One mailbox cannot send as multiple addresses. Doing that would require
a mailbox for each address. To set a new primary address on a mailbox log into the ECP and choose mailboxes under the recipients option on the left. Then search for the mailbox you want to add the address to and click the edit symbol. Navigate to the
Email Address tab on the left. To set a new primary address you will likely need uncheck the box for "Automatically update email addresses based on the email address policy applied to this recipient". Then click the plus button, enter the new address,
and check the box for "Make this the reply address"
Before you do this you should ensure that the proper MS records exist for these other domains, and that they are properly configured for mail flow. Once you set this as the reply address for a mailbox, that is the address external users will use for replies.
