Firefox is not receiving POST data correctly from web form.

I am working on a website and I use firefox for alot of the testing and debugging.
Recently I have been having a problem, where in the PHP script I am POSTing some form data to another page to run the script, and my web server keeps getting the error log "PHP Notice: Undefined index: *mypostfield*"
I look this error up online, and it says that it means the POST value for *mypostfield* is empty.
I do the same thing in IE, Chrome, and Safari, and it works fine, data is sent properly and everything works.
I have disabled all add-ons, still the same, reinstall, still the same.
Windows 7 64-bit. Firefox 8 & 9

Not receiving verification pin texts from web services.

I know there are currently issues happening with imessage, but I thought that was for people who switched to Android. I have and always have had an iphone. I did recently upgrade to 5s from 5 and also made some changes to my service with Verizon. I am now having issues with not being able to receive any texts from certain friends. Also, I do not receive any texts from companies trying to send me verification pin numbers such as Google and eBay. Any ideas?

Yep. Verizon fixed it for me. Apparently there were some text blocks set on my line for some bizarre reason.

Question about data extraction from web forms

I am developing a simple web form in DreamWeaver MX for
increased accesibility for users who utilize screen reader
software, as navigating PDF forms is still currently very difficult
for most of the screen readers to navigate. I was wondering if
there is a way to take an .asp webform that a user fills out and
when they hit a print button it would extract the data from the
form and open an Adobe PDF form and populate the data they entered
into specific fields within the PDF form which would allow them to
print an official copy of the form they used the web version to
complete. Any insight into this possibility is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Is this something that can be fixed. Becasue I know that majority of ourpatients have Droids has it is a very popular phone and we are getting numerous complaints!
I will be looking forwrd to a response!

Well what's also weird is I'll send/receive other sms messages and there won't be any problems. But then, out of no where, my phone will get sms messages that are a few days old. I move around plenty in my area for work or other reasons so it's not like I stay in one location all the time. Also, I have Verizon and they have great coverage in my area anyway.

Error adding Sales order via DI-SERVER Posting Date deviates from the defin

When adding a sales order via the DI-API we have started receiving the following error:
Error: Posting Date deviates from the defined range. To complete the operation, define the posting period to match the entered Posting Date. [(----) 131-204]
I have verified that the posting dates within the document exist within the defined posting periods in SAP and that the posting period in question is unlocked.
I can add the document within the SAP B1 interface without any issues.
This process and code was also working up until the start of the new financial year. There have been no changes to the code or the financial periods in the new year.
There is a peculiarity with the financial periods for this company in that they have moved from calendar periods in the past to financial periods. Has anyone come accross any issues with posting dates and the DI SERVER API?
The dates in the XML document that we are trying to add are shown below.
<Documents>
<row>
<DocDate>20100310</DocDate>
<DocDueDate>20100310</DocDueDate>
<CardCode>C9999</CardCode>
The following are the financial period values from OFPR
Posting Date From/To: 06.03.10 02.04.10
Due Date From/To: 01.01.10 01.04.11
Document Date From/To: 01.01.10 02.04.10
Start of Fiscal Year: 01.01.10

Hi Gordon,
Our customer has moved their financial year end from 1 April / 31 March using calendar months to a 4/4/5 financial period model with a year start date from Jan.
This was necessary after the company was purchased by a US firm that wanted to align the reporting calendars.
Under the 4/4/5 model their financial year start date does not start 1st January. Hence the 3/1/2010 being the first date of the January period.
No matter how the periods are setup the financial year start date in SAP Business One cannot be anything other than the 1st of the month.
All posting within SAP appears to be working fine, it is only via the DI SERVER requests that we seem to be having problems.
However, we suspect that the issue may be unrelated to the posting periods due to some other testing performed.

Sean

When I try to use the Vision Acquisition vi, I get an error message saying that " The system did not receive a test packet from the camera."

Error -1074360271 occurred at IMAQdx Start Acquisition.vi
NI-IMAQdx: (Hex 0xBFF69031) The system did not receive a test packet from the camera. The packet size may be too large for the network configuration or a firewall may be enabled.

Bruce Ammons wrote:
Did you try disabling test packets? I know Basler cameras have a "Enable Test Packets" setting buried in Advanced Network settings or something like that. You have to change the setting in MAX to show all settings instead of just acquisition, then locate the setting. I have been told regularly that the setting must be turned off for Basler cameras to work properly. Perhaps your camera has the same setting and the same requirement.
Bruce
A very specific firmware revision for certain Basler cameras had an issue where the test packet would not be sent for certain packet sizes and certain specific conditions, causing a false report of a test packet failure when a normal acquisition would in fact succeed. However, this was fixed in later firmware revisions and I have never seen a similar issue on any other types of cameras.
Aside from this specific case, if a test packet fails, it generally means an acquisition will as well. Given that Pleora's software can acquire, we can rule out networking topology and hardware, assuming you are using the same packet size as the Pleora software is. The only other thing that would seem a likely candidate would be a software issue like a firewall or some other filter driver that is interefering with IMAQdx receiving the data.

Rates being redetermined. Form not received for delivery 0040008146 from 00

Hi ! All,
I m creating a Export Proforma Invoice ( It is a copy of Billing Type JEX ) with respect to a delivery , I am getting the following error-
Rates being redetermined. Form not received for delivery 0040008146 from 0000000012
Message no. 8I642
Diagnosis
Excise rates are being re-determined. This is becuase you have not received the Concession form for the delivery document & yet from the customer &
System Response
System will apply the normal excise duty rates and generate an excise invoice
Procedure
In case you have forgotten to record the receipt of the Forms please do so in Forms tracking for the Sales order and delivery.
Please analyse and let me know what is possible solution.
Regards,
Ashutosh

I feel the process what you had narrated itself is wrong.
It seems some zee table is developed wherein, the users should maintain data related to some concession forms which I feel should be applicable to domestic sales.
Apart from the above, for exports, I dont know why you were generating proforma copying billing type JEX. You were supposed to copy F5 (order related proforma) or F8 (delivery related proforma).
Since in your case, you have indicated that you have generated against a delivery, you should copy F8 billing type and maintain copy control accordingly in VTFL.
Last but not least, the message number also seems to be not a standard one.
thanks

Clients not receiving DHCP IP address from HREAP centrally Switched Guest SSID

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in a newly deployed branch site where the Clients are not receiving DHCP IP address from a centrally switched Guest SSID. I see the client status is associated but the policy manager state is in DHCP_REQD.
The dhcp pool is configured on the controller itself. The local guest clients are able to get DHCP and all works fine, the issue is only with the clients in the remote site. The Hreap APs are in connected mode. Could you please suggest what could be the problem. Below is the out of the debug client.

TS4002 Not receiving emails w/ attachments from a few of my existing contacts

This is a problem I just started having in the last couple weeks! I am not receiving emails w/ attachments from two of my every day mail contacts. Both of these people are with different organizations with different email accounts. If they send me an email without an attachment I receive it, but when they send one with an attachment, I don't even get a notification that they TRIED to send it! I have missed multiple emails from important business clients and my realtor! I have received hundreds of emails from these clients over the last 3 years. The attachments are simple PDF files so I know they are not exceeding the limit. They do not show up on the iCloud site, in my Mail app, or on my iPhone.
I have had several other contacts send me attachments which I receive as expected.
I have an @me.com account. Have had no complaints until now.
Any help?

Station is not receiving an IP address from DHCP

Hello guys,
I have an ASA 5505 functioning as a router to connect to the Internet. Also, it is my DHCP server for my clients, and APs. When I connect my laptop to the ASA, I get an IP address and able to configure my WLC. The APs also receives an IP address from the ASA. However, when I connect to the AP wirelessly as a wireless client, my laptop is not receiving an IP address from the DHCP which is my ASA.
Here is my topology:

Hello jsnyder81,
I have another question. This is still related to the same network.
I am able to connect to the wireless network now, and receiving IP address from the ASA 5505; however, I can only ping my wireless gateway. I also don't have access to the Internet.

That is a problem with an extension that tries to install a search bar. The tnt2toolbar should give you a clue about which extension. You didn't add troubleshooting information with the list of installed extensions, so I can't give a suggestion about which extension is causing this.
You can check for problems with preferences.

Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

Uninstall the Inbox Toolbar, following steps here:

Then retry opening Firefox.
You can also try opening Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] (use Continue in Safe Mode first).
If that works, reopen Firefox Safe Mode, but use the dialog option to '''Restore default search engines''' as shown at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode#Safe_Mode_window and press the '''Make changes and restart''' button.

Firefox could not download the search plugin from

I have installed Firefox 24.0 recently and I am trying to install youtube Search Engine by opening www.youtube.com and clicking the Add "YouTube Video Search" in the search toolbar , but I get the following error message:
Download Error
Firefox could not download the search plugin from:
http://www.youtube.com/opensearch?locale=en_GB
Is it a Firefox problem, or a youtube error?

Thank you for your reply.
I don't want to install addon for youtube search. I just wanted to know if I can install the youtube search engine as before.
After some reading on the internet I found that search engine is described by a small XML file that is available through a link on the page. All other pages with working search engines like Wikipedia or IMDb generates XML content or refers to XML file. But the link of youtube opensearch descriptor points to an opensearch.osdx file.
I don't know if it is the extension, or if there is unsupported tag in it but Firefox is not willing to handle it and add youtube to the search engines.
I found this page: http://www.tobtu.com/customsearch.php I copied the relevant tags to the input fields and added YouTube Video Srearch. Now it works fine.
But the question remains: is it Firefox that cannot handle youtube's sandard opensearch descriptor or is it youtube.com that provides a faulty descriptor?

Firefox is not receiving POST data correctly from web form.
