Help needed creating consistency across pages

My site is here:
http://www.leaningtowermpls.com/index.php
The horizontal yellow bar at the top is inconsistent across
the pages Home, Menu and Locations. I haven't taken the time to
learn CSS properly yet, and most of the layout is table based. (Not
that I have mastered anything at this point.) This site needs to
get out the door, so if anyone can let me know how to solve this
problem I would really appreciate it.

As discussed - it would be best to base on a simple template
- with
the common items like menu, to yellow bar in the template
etc.
Also you have the css in each file, far better to move it out
to an
external style sheet - so that all pages will behave the
same.

Help needed with consistency across browsers

I know this is an age old problem but I am hoping that
someone can help me make my site look correct across all browsers.
In particular I would like spacing around elements to be
consistent.
My website is boxout.co.uk
If you view it Firefox or Safari on either a mac or pc the
spacing is exactly as I want it. Look at the site in Explorer and
the space at the top and bottom of the divs is missing. I have
linked 2 screenshots to highlight the problem areas.
Explorer -
incorrect layout
Safari -
Correct Layout
This is my css code

Hi Alec
The website is
www.boxout.co.uk
The css is www.boxout.co.uk/boxout.css
If you need to see screenshots these can be found at

Suggestions/help needed creating portal type page

Let me start by saying I am very new to Java. I'm trying to create a portal - a fairly simple web page where each user who logs in will see only those application links that they are authorized to access. User A will see links to applications X, Y and Z and user B will see links to applications R and Q.
I'm running a Tomcat 6 server, and will be using Java 6 (jsp pages, servlets, etc). I've done some research on things like tomcat realms, ldap, ad, jaas, etc. but I'm still not sure what direction I should be going in. My 'portal'/web page will consist of about 20 application links - some are links out to external web sites/applications (public web sites outside of our network), some are internal applications housed on various in-house servers on our network, some are home-grown, others are 3rd party applications, eventually some will be home-grown java applications. Each application currently has it's own login and password.
I know that I can build a table in a relational database, or update an xml file in Tomcat and use Tomcat realms to determine who has access to what. Are there other options? I can certainly build a table, but I don't want to if there are easier ways - can AD tell me what applications a particular user has access to (so I can determine what links to display)? If so, how? (I don't know much about ad (yet)).
I just don't want to end up building something overly complex, and missing out on something that would make this simpler. Any ideas, suggestions, etc on what I could/should be looking at would be most appreciated.
Thanks!

Unless you know what you're doing with absolute positioning, avoid absolute positioning! Absolute positioning actually takes an element out of the normal HTML document flow and positions it absolutely in relationship with it's first parent with a position other than static - for details read the HTML specs at the W3C.
Ideally you should use the normal HTML document flow. Divs are block level elements meaning that they act like blocks that take up a height (determined by children content) and width (the full width of the page or it's parent container, unless you tell it otherwise).
For your CSS try this:
#techlistcontainer {
    width: 75%;
    margin-top: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
    margin-bottom: 0;
    margin-left: 30;
    padding-top: 0;
    padding-right: 0;
    padding-bottom: 0;
    padding-left: 30;
How does that work with your templates?

Help Needed with Dynamic RePort PAges

I've created a link that dynamically will generate a data
report from my db. I have about 30 reports the client needs to be
able to run. Do I have to create a separate page for every single
recordset?? Is there a more efficient way to do this??

You could make a drop down menu with the name of the report
in it and then show that report on the redirect page using an if
statement to determine which sql statement to run. Also you can
have multiple recordset on a page.
Are you using php, asp or cfm?

Help in creating a confirmation page

i have created an application form in asp and would like new
members to receive email telling them they have successfully
registered and another to myself the administrator telling me that
person x has registered. any assistance would be
appreciated.

Hi,
I use CDOSYS to send email from my ASP. You will first need
to check that your host allows this. It's the default now on
Windows servers so there should not be an issue here.
For more info look here:
http://www.powerasp.com/content/new/sending_email_cdosys.asp
You will then need to build your form, add validation as
needed and build a 'thankyou.asp' page which you redirect to when
the form has been submitted.
The 'thankyou.asp' will include your various SMTP gateway
authentication requirements and also the field names of your form
so as to build your E-Mail.
Something like this maybe:
<%
Dim objMail
Set objMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Set objConfig = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")
'Configuration:
objConfig.Fields(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServer)="auth.smtp.hostname.co.uk"
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServerPort)=25
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPAuthenticate)=cdoBasic
objConfig.Fields(cdoSendUserName) = "mailbox_username"
objConfig.Fields(cdoSendPassword) = "mailbox_password"
'Update configuration
objConfig.Fields.Update
Set objMail.Configuration = objConfig
objMail.From = Request("email")
objMail.To = "[email protected]"
objMail.Subject = "Details from My Form"
objMail.HTMLBody = ""
objMail.HTMLBody = objMail.HTMLBody & ""
& "Contact Name " & "" &
Request.form("name") & " " & " "
objMail.HTMLBody = objMail.HTMLBody & ""
& "Telephone Area Code " & "" &
Request.form("telcode") & " " & " "
objMail.HTMLBody = objMail.HTMLBody & ""
& "Telephone Number " & "" &
Request.form("telnumber") & " " & " "
objMail.HTMLBody = objMail.HTMLBody & ""
& "Email " & "" & Request.form("email")
& " " & " "
objMail.HTMLBody = objMail.HTMLBody & ""
& "Message " & "" &
Request.form("message") & " " & " "
objMail.HTMLBody = objMail.HTMLBody & "Sent at " &
Now() & " " & " " & ""
objMail.Send
If Err.Number = 0 Then
Response.Write(".")
Else
Response.Write("Sorry, There was an error processing your
questionnaire. Please try again. Code: " & Err.Number)
Err.Clear
End If
Set objMail=Nothing
Set objConfig=Nothing
%>
Hope this helps some

Help in creating a OAF Page

My requirement is to create a page and in that I need to have the fields like date, employee number, batch number, person type, group name and below these fields I need to have an advance table with other fields. User can enter one batch# and employee number and date and for that employee, user should enter the rows in advance table and all these values should store in a single VO including the fields above the advanced table. I am not sure if this will work as we are entering the above fileds one time and multiple rows in advanced table.
If you see any similar page in any of the module, please let me know the responsibility and function, I will check the page and code behind that.
Thanks,
HC

it is not recomendated to have both header master and line child in same table.
But you can create such page. Oracle will not have such page.

Help Needed Created Standalone Network for iTunes DJ

I use my MBP to manage backing tracks for a band. I would like to use iTunes DJ for requests from the audience via wireless connection via *iPhone/iPod Touch Remote app*. I would use this option in conjunction with a printed song list and small request cards (for those who don't have iPhones).
I can't connect to an existing network as most venues do not have wireless. I would like to set up my MBP as a wireless base station that can be accessed via an iPhone/iPod Remote app. Besides, I would prefer to have a network that echo's the band's name.
I know I have to use the "*Create computer-to-computer Networks*", but I am unsure of what settings I need to get the network working.
I will use Locations to quickly activate the MBP as the base station.
Any help or suggestion setting up my MBP as a wireless base station would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Agreed. I'd keep at it yourself. I guarantee it will be something simple.
what are the benefits of a switcher? (never used one before) any recomends?
A switch is just like a hub, except that instead of always sending packets to your entire network, it only sends them where they need to go. The benefits grow with the size and speed of your network. Switches used to be much more expensive than hubs but not any more. Normally I'd recommend almost any Linksys device, but in this case dlink seems to have a better one:

Again, I don't think your dlink hub is responsible for this dramatic bottleneck though.

Help needed, Createing Dynamic User input

Hello,
I am attempting to create some dynamic user input by "predicting" what the user requires in a text box.
For example if the user enters "Smi" I have a select list pop up which gives the user all options that begin with "Smi".
I am able to achieve the popups but the interface is quite jerky and not terribly responsive I am trying to solve this by using a thread which starts and stops when new input is received but it is still not quite right.
The program uses a Sorted TreeSet to hold the data (I thought this would give me a quick search time) and a simple interface at this stage.
Any help would be fantastic
Thanks in advance :P

Help needed to introduce a page break

I have created the subforms structure also and working fine.
I want whenever the state changes i want to go to the next page .
I have tried setting all the options like Place and After but the designer geenrates the blank pages either at the top or at the last .
a. How do i get rid of the extra blank page
    OR
How do i acheive the page break whenever state changes.
Please help me asap as i have wasted lot of time int his.
Many Thanks
Mohit Gupta

I believe the new Conditional Break feature in Designer 7.1 can help you solve this problem. It'll let you specify an expression which compares the previous value of the section_name field with the value of the current instance of section_name and, if they're different, insert a page break to the top of the next page.
Assuming the basic structure inferred by the Data View palette when you drag & drop the options node onto the form, make the page subform Flowed (using the Content property Object palette's Subform tab), make the options subform repeatable (using the Object palette's Binding tab) and then go to the Object palette's Pagination tab on the options subform. There, you'll see a middle section labeled
Conditional Breaks with an Edit button that'll be enabled. Click on that to set an expression like this (in FormCalc):
options[-1].section_name ne options.section_name
where the Break property is set to
Before and the To property is set to
Top of Next Page.
The result will be a form which lists each section on its own page without have a superfluous blank page.
I've attached a sample form based on your sample data which breaks whenever the state changes.

Help needed creating Web Service Proxy with SSL

Hi All, I really need your help. I need to create a Web Service proxy for a web service which is SSL enabled and developed in Netbeans.

Basic help needed creating a trigger

I'm completely new to SQL programming altogether, and I'm trying to set up a trigger that will make some checks before adding a new row to a given table. I am trying to do this because I need to enforce a CONSTRAINT that checks whether the dates entered for 'deadline' and 'startDate' are greater than sysdate and less than (sysdate + 365), and I found out that you cannot reference sysdate from a CONSTRAINT. Therefore I am now attempting to do this using a trigger, but I don't really know how to do this. Here is the sql code used to create the table:
-- PLACEMENT TABLE
DROP TABLE placement;
CREATE TABLE placement
contactId Int,
placementId Int,
position VARCHAR(60),
description CLOB,
lengMonths Int,
salary Number(7,2),
deadline DATE,
startDate DATE,
addrLine1 VARCHAR(120),
postCd VARCHAR(10)
And here is my attempt at creating the trigger that will only allow the deadline and startDate to be entered if they satisfy the following check: (sysdate < deadline/startDate <= sysdate+365)
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trg_deadline_low BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OF deadline ON placement
BEGIN
IF :deadline <= SYSDATE THEN
ROLLBACK;
END IF;
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trg_deadline_high BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OF deadline ON placement
BEGIN
IF :deadline > SYSDATE + 365 THEN
ROLLBACK;
END IF;
END;
If possible, I would like for these triggers to display an error rather than just using ROLLBACK, but I'm not sure how! At the moment, these triggers do not work at all; I get an error message "Warning: Trigger created with compilation errors." when I attempt to create the triggers in the first place.
Can anyone tell me why I am seeing this error when trying to implement the triggers? And if anyone could also improve on my amateur attempt at coding a trigger, then that would be great! Thanks for any help!

Oops!
Nicolas, Thank you for correcting my mistake.

On the contrary, I think that OP want an error instead of rollback : "I would like for these triggers to display an error rather than just using ROLLBACK"Ah, I had misread additionally. Sorry.

Help needed creating vertical bullet list using div tag and css

Hi,
I think there is something quite fundamental that I'm missing when using div tags - I seem to keep running into problems with them.
I'm trying to create a vertical bullet list. It works fine when I try the code on its own as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">

</style>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div id="techlistcontainer">
<ul id="techlist">
 <li>Java Messaging Service (JMS)</li>
 <li>Message Driven Beans </li>
 <li>Remote Session EJBs with multi-threading</li>
 <li>Message Oriented Middleware(MOS) such as Websphere MQ series, Mercator with SAP/ERP</li>
 <li>XML messaging</li>
 <li>CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture), RMI (Remote Method Invocation)</li>
 </ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
http://www.pa-solutions.co.uk/vertical_list.html
When I insert that into my site template page, its all over the place:
http://www.pa-solutions.co.uk/development.html
I've put the css code into a seperate file http://www.pa-solutions.co.uk/pas.css - I get the same results when its embedded into the html doc.
Please help before I pull all my hair out.
Thanks,
Phil.

Unless you know what you're doing with absolute positioning, avoid absolute positioning! Absolute positioning actually takes an element out of the normal HTML document flow and positions it absolutely in relationship with it's first parent with a position other than static - for details read the HTML specs at the W3C.
Ideally you should use the normal HTML document flow. Divs are block level elements meaning that they act like blocks that take up a height (determined by children content) and width (the full width of the page or it's parent container, unless you tell it otherwise).
For your CSS try this:
#techlistcontainer {
 width: 75%;
 margin-top: 0;
 margin-right: 0;
 margin-bottom: 0;
 margin-left: 30;
 padding-top: 0;
 padding-right: 0;
 padding-bottom: 0;
 padding-left: 30;
How does that work with your templates?

HELP NEEDED CREATING VI WITH POTENTIOMETER

Hi Everyone,
I have a DAQ 6009, linear potentiometer and a spring.
I want to measure the displacement of a spring using the linear pot and correspond this displacement into a force by multiplying by spring constant k. (F=-k.x)
F=force, k = spring constant, x = displacment
I need to create a VI that will,
Take voltage readout of potentimeter and correspond it to 0-110mm displacement of spring. ie 0V=0mm, 5V =110mm.
Multiply the displacement mm by k (which is 25).
Record values into excel file and display when stop button is pressed.
Record peak force (amplitude).
When the pot is fully extented it would correspond to 0mm/0V.
Please find attached current Labview VI and linear pot.
As you can see it is multiplying the voltage reading by 25, I want to correspond this voltage to a displacment and then multiply by 25 so I will have output in Newtons.
Thank you for your help,
John

I am fairly new to Labview, so excuse my lack of knowledge at the moment.
I didn't use a custom scale. Can you inform me of what to do?
I multiplied voltage by 20 to correspond it to mm then by k (25) to convert it to a force, is this correct?
I reversed the ground and 5V supply on the 6009 so it will be reading 0 when pot is fully extended?
Below is DAQ Assistant and Block diagram/front panel.
Also my read from measurement file graph is only generating a somewhat straight line instead of an actual waveform??

Help needed creating a linked list program

I have been trying to create a linked list program that takes in a word and its definition and adds the word to a link list followed by the definition. i.e. java - a simple platform-independent object-oriented programming language.
the thing is that of course words must be added and removed from the list. so i am going to use the compareTo method. Basically there a 2 problems
1: some syntax problem which is causing my add and remove method not to be seen from the WordList class
2: Do I HAVE to use the iterator class to go thru the list? I understand how the iterator works but i see no need for it.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction im a little lost.................
your help would be greatly appreciated i've been working on this over a week i dont like linked list..........

add(toAdd);this is in the dictionary class
generic messageThat's because there is no add(...) method in your Dictionary class: the add(...) method is in your WordList class.
To answer your next question "+how do I add things to my list then?+": Well, you need to create an instance of your WordList class and call the add(...) method on that instance.
Here's an example of instantiating an object and invoking a method on that instance:
Integer i = new Integer(6); // create an instance of Integer
System.out.println(i.toString()); // call it's toString() method and display it on the "stdout"
