Help required to understand interactive SWF appearance on various browsers and pc's

I have created an interactive newsletter for global distribution.
My work machine uses a resolution of 1280 x 1024
However, my company uses different browsers and laptops globally, as we have approx 150,000 employees.
The Indesign pages are 1000 x 800 px
When I sent out a few test files, I received various issues from different people.
Some using IE6, IE7 and IE8 complained that although their resolutions were 1280 x 800, or 1280 x 1024, the top and bottom of the swf files were either cut off or the file was presented with text too small to read.
Using Firefox, some of the people also said that the file presented with the top and bottom cut off.
My own PC using either IE8 or Firefox @ 1280 x 1024 presents the file perfectly fine.
Now, with IE 8 and firefox, by either using the CTRL + middle mouse wheel, or CTRL and + or - the SWF file resized correctly by zooming in and out.
For IE6 the user would need to right click and choose Zoom in or Zoom out.
Most users are, and I am not being patronising here, not computer savvy, and would not generally know how to perform this option. They simply use the computers to do their job and panic if a java updated is presented.
I need to avoid this if I am to pursue the interactive SWF file approach.
Has anyone else experienced this and can you offer a solution that, no matter the resolution ot Browser used the SWF file will present correctly all the time?
thanks

The usual approach is to assume the smallest pixel dimension for a desktop is 1024x768, so you set the flash stage at around 900x650. If you are coding in Actionscript there is the option to listen for a browser resize and rearrange the objects on the stage to fit the space, but that's not an option saving out of ID. The best approach is to setup your ID page to 900x650, and make sure the text is readable at 100% view.

Thanx in advance........

Annotations can also be processed at run time using the core reflection API (java.lang.Class & java.lang.reflect.*), so you might want to explore down that path. I have no idea how JBoss actually does it, but annotation processing at build time and core reflection at runtime are the two most obvious possibilities.

Help required in understanding of static blocks in java

Hi ,
Can some one help me in understanding the difference between static blocks in java....also what is the difference in declaring some static variables in a class and and declaring some variables in a static block? From an architecture viewpoint when should one use static blocks in Java?

Static blocks are piece of code that can beexecuted
before creating an instance of a class.static blocks are executed once, when the class
itself is loaded by the JVM. They are not executed
before creating each instance of a class.
For example whatever you include in the mainn method will be
executed without you having to create the instanceof
the class using the new operator. So you can saythe
main method is a static block.main is not a static initialisation block but a
static method. a special case static method at that -
it is only executed when the containing class is
specified as a parameter to the JVM. (unless you
specifcally call it elsewhere in code - but that
would be bad form).
in answer to the original post, static variables
belong to the class. each instance of the class share
the same static variables. Public static vars can be
accessed by prefixing them with the class name. A
static initialisation block can be used to
initialise static variables. Variables declared
within the static initialisation block exist only
within the scope of the block.
e.g.
public class Foo {
static Bar bar; // static member variable
// static initialisation block
static {
// variable declared in static block...
String barInfo =
arInfo = System.getParameter("barInfo");
// ... used to initialise the static var
bar = new Bar(barInfo);
So is the only purpose of static initialization blocks is to initialize static variables? Does the initialization of static variables inside a static block make any difference in performance? If yes , then how ?

Help required with understanding References and finalizers

Background
I have an online Application which has been developed over 6 years now. It is a Website CMS and runs 300 simultaneous sites per webserver. For the first time I am experiencing capacity / performance issues. I switched from SUN Java to JROCKIT in 2006 which speeded evertything up by 200% but now I have periods of the day where The memory fills up and I get Swapping which leads to 100% cpu utilization - mainly in I/O. I have upped the RAM in the server as a solution and now I want to see if I can do anything to reduce my memory footprint.
Specifically : The question
I have captured stats which I can view in Mission Control and it shows that the number of Weak References increases continuously over a 4 hour period (also the number of Phantom references shows similar behaviour). Therefore I suspect a memory leak - Also I suspect that this is of my own making since I have not realy had to deal with this before. The thing is I cannot clearly see how to proceed and identify what my error is.
I have spent a couple of weeks reading loads of docs about weak / stong etc.. references but I realy need a bit of help with zeroing in on a starting point. I know that I release objects by setting them to null but I now expect that this is not realy good enough.
Anyway - before I ramble too long, If there is anyone with relevant experience and a few minutes I would be very gratefull to hear from them.

Hi Jonathan,
Reference objects and finalizers are a frequent cause of performance issues. The reason is that 1) objects tend to be kept alive longer, leading to an increase in live data and more frequent GC and 2) processing of these objects during GC is expensive, which leads to more time spent in GC, i.e. long pause times.
There are various ways you can approach your issue. One is to use -Xverbose to see what you find. If you are using JRockit R27.2 or later, run with "-Xverbose:referents" to get a list of all reference objects at every GC. More info:
http://edocs.bea.com/jrockit/jrdocs/refman/optionX.html#wp1029960
Note that you can enable verbose logging during runtime through "jrcmd <pid> verbosity set=referents" and later disable it using "jrcmd <pid> verbosity set=referents=warn". No JVM restart required.
If you send your JRA recordings to jrockit-improve AT bea DOT com, we'll try to take a look at them.

Help required to understand the concepts for data files in tablespace

Hi Guys!
Conceptual understanding for data files.
A tablespace is having 2 datafiles.
What once the data files will get full? I know we can create data files but what if there is no space on the server for any additional file to be created?
Do we require to make the oldest file offline and move outside the environment?
Thanks

ThanksIf the datafiles are full, there is not much that you would get from the "defragmentation" of the datafiles. It would be sort of like this in the start,
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Then it will be ,
FFFFFFFUUUUUFFFFFUUUUUU
So what you are going to get is something like this, (if would be done),
FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU
So that's how the datafile would like. But that won't give you much of the space anyways still. The option to add a storage must be there with you. The file being offline wont take away the space that it has already allocated. And moreover, doing so, would also impact the access to the data that it would be storing within it.

Help required in understanding when to use encodeChildren() method

I am new to Java Server Faces. I am a little bit confused in understanding the uselfulness of encodeChildren() method in renderers? Can any one explain how a datatable component gets rendered?how is it that that row by row processing takes place?

TableRenderer.encodeChildren() is something you can easily imagine:while(there is the next row) {
UIData.setRowIndex(++rowIndex);
write("<tr>");
while(there is the next column) {
    write("<td>");
    while(there is the next component in the column) {
      nextComponent.encodeBegin();
      nextComponent.encodeChildren();
      nextComponent.encodeEnd();
    write("</td>");
write("</tr>");

Help required to understand the configuration parameteres set in Ora JDBC

Hello Support,
Client is connected through Oracle JDBC and folllowing values is assigned in the configuration.
(FAILOVER=on)(LOAD_BALANCE=off)
I would like to know what is the meaning of above values please ? specially Load_balance = OFF
Thanks

I don't know if this will help or not, but with an executable jar file, the classpath is handled differently. All classes are expected to be contained in the jar and external classpath info is ignored. This may also be true in your case if the files are being accessed in that manner. You could try it out quickly by moving the policy and conf files into the jar and dropping the path info.
If that works, you can decide whether or not you want it packaged that way.
If it doesn't work, try unpacking the jar file and running it that way, instead of the executable jar. Again, if that works, you can decide how you want to package your app based on that information.

Photo pages not appearing in IE browsers

Hi,
Now that I've worked out image quality issues in iweb 08, currently testing my published site (temporarily in protected directory test mode). Through Safari Develop Tool I've checked various browsers and all browsers display my site correctly except IE browsers. In all IE browsers I'm noticing the photo pages are not displaying my image thumbnails except captions. Hovering and clicking the mouse over where the image should be visible brings up the slideshow and images do appear. The photo album pages are less then 12 pictures per album; images have been optimized. So this is not the problem regarding the thumbnail pages. So what could it be? Javascript issues?
Frustrated because this one issue is preventing me from displaying my site live! Of course, I could just forget about PC users but I have products I want to sell and don't want to lose potential customers. One peculiar glitch on a website scares people away.
Been searching all over the internet for answers but growing more confused. Although new to safari's develop tool and unfamiliarity with javascript fixes, curious if clicking on debugging javascript would be a remedy. If so, what would I need to do to fix the disappearing images? Or, should I just accept that iweb 08 and IE are incompatible and inform my visitors to use non-IE browsers such as Safari and FireFox? Such a letdown!
Help most appreciative!
Cheers, June

Help!!! My video disappears in my interactive .swf export

After exporting my InDesign file as an interactive .SWF file, I view its html file on my desktop and
everything is working perfectly. Once I upload the files (the Resource file, the
.swf file and the html file) everything looks great until I see the page with my video clip. When turning
to that page, I see the video image for a split second and it then disappears. I have it set in InDesign,
so that it plays automatically when the page turns and I when you hover over it, the bar to pause or stop,
should appear. Online, I see none of that...just an empty square, where the video should be. It is
apparent that something is going wrong when viewing it online. Please help! I would like to show my client
on Monday. I really need to get this fixed. Thanks for your help.

Interactive SWF files on Smartboards.

Can Flash interactive SWF files be used on Smartboards with their interactivity intact?

The installation requirements asking for FP11.1 or greater is encouraging but how much interactivity do you expect? While it serves as a basic mouse input, the AS3 MultiTouch class will give you information on what it detects support for.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/ui/Multitouch.htm l
The inputMode property will tell you what mode it's supporting (multitouch, gestures or basic mouse), maxTouchPoints tells you how many points Flash will support via the driver and the supportedGestures vector will let you know what built-in gesture detection (rotate, scale, touch, etc) will be supported.
Contacting SmartTech would be the fastest way to get your answer but there's a good chance you at least have basic touch input with gestures, as long as you're on Win7 or higher (Note: they do say Win8 is not fully supported yet).

Search Help with in a serach help required in SRM 4.0

Hi,
Requirement: Search help required for Product Category field in the Search help for Product(BBPH_PRODUCT) in SRM portal.
This search help is used in Create shopping Cart transaction. The hyper link on Internal Goods/Services leads to the search help BBPH_PRODUCT.
My analysis:
The field Product Category (CATEGORY_ID) has search help(COM_CAT_HIER) attached to its data element. When I single test the search help BBPH_PRODUCT in SAP GUI,I can see the search help for field product category in the selection dialogue box. However the same does not appear on the corresponding screen in HTML.
Please let me know whether I need to do some thing to make the search help appear on the HTML screen?
With Regards,
Prakash Kamath

Hi Prakash,
I have the same problem but with another field. Unloading point. Could you please tell me how did you solve this problem with displaying F4 help on html/ SRM portal?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Danijela ZIvanovic
