Help with a mouseover popup box

I'm not certain if that's the right name. What I want is a box that pops up with information when a user's mouse hovers over an item and that disappears again when the mosue moves away. I'm not really certain what it should be called. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

Need help with as3 for popup window

I am nearing the end of the semester in my Flash Animation class. I have learned very simple AS3 things, code snippets etc. I am trying to find the actionscript for coding a very simple popup window, but have not found a clue.
Here's what I want to do...I have a white box with some type on the stage. When a person clicks on the white box, I want a popup to open that is larger, that will contain the same type but larger. That box will have an x so it can be dismissed. I don't want to do this in html, only in Flash CS5. I don't want a browser window, I just want a bigger version of the smaller box. I know how to build both boxes, just don't know how to write the code. I know there will be an on-click mouse event listener, and then I am lost.
Can anyone help with the code I might use? It would be most appreciated.

It would be something along the lines of... (using instance names relative to your description)...
popup.visible = false;
whiteBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showPopup);
function showPopup(evt:MouseEvent):void {
popup.visible = true;
popup.popupX.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hidePopup);
function hidePopup(evt:MouseEvent):void {
popup.visible = false;

Help with Flex based popup windows and data population.

Hello, I need a bit of help with Flex popups. I have a flex
application that uses a popup window when you click on a button and
displays information about the image above the button the user
clicked. I have about 4 images and I need to be able to display
information about each of them through the popup window when users
click on the buttons below the image.
At this time, I am trying to do this from somewhat of a
"static" point of view because I do not believe my hosting company
supports Flex Data services. You will find my code below.

What I want to do is either be able to create a popup file
for each button and photo, or find a way to pass a name like a
button ID that corresponds to a XML data structure and then
provides the appropriate data for the photo. I have tried altering
the first page of code with the "public" declaration to allow for a
second popup file for each button and image, but the IDE won't
allow me to do such because it creates errors stating I can only
have one public declaration of the kind and function above per
application. Help resolving this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I have an idea of what I want to do. I am just having
difficulty articulating how to go about such. I know I want to find
a way so that if a user clicks on button 1, button 1 will send some
kind of variable. For example, a user clicks Btn1 under a picture.
Btn1 sends some kind of variable or binding to a data structure
which returns the picture's description, price, etc. and calls the
popup to display that data in a form like manner. Then the user
click Btn2 which does the same thing. The only purpose of the popup
is to display the data.
Do I create a data structure with a related name to say a
button name so when the btn is clicked, the a variable title btn1
will prepend itself to the data structure like
{btn1.imagename}
{btn1.price}
{btn1.description}.
I want each btn to call a different set of data about each
picture because right now, the code I have is allowing me multiple
buttons, but is just displays the popup. Is there a way to create a
separate popup window for each button? Thats seems as though it
would be easier. Thank you for your help.

Need help with "get info" dialog box

Hi Everyone!
I need some help with trying to figure out what some of the options are in the "Get Info" dialog box. I've searched the iTunes help and these forums, but can't find anything.
So, in the options tab,
1. What does "Part of compilation" Y/N, do for me?
2. Same for "Remember Position"
3. And finally, "Gapless album"
Thanks, Vince.

1. when you import a compilation album (like an 80's compilation or something), itunes will import it as
song 1, artist 1, 80's greatest hits
song 2, artist 2, 80's greatest hits etc
Click part of a compliation means that, it means that it would keep them altogether rather than having lots of songs everywhere
2. If you start playing a song, then stop, part way through, when you next come to the song, itunes will remember where you left off
3. Albums like jean michel jarre, classical, mike oldfield, etc, have many songs which merge into each other. Having gapless album ticked will ensure that, when playing the album, there are no gaps between songs

Help with simple applet - dragging box

Hi I need help with a simple applet concept.
I have a picture drawn in the background, but I need to draw a square and resize it when I drag.
So with the picture in the background I click, drag the mouse, and it draws a rectangle from the starting point to where the mouse is while the mouse is clicked.
The only problem is I can't figure out how to do this without redrawing the whole picture. If I don't repaint, it just keeps stretching around rectangles and leaving them there.
I don't really need exact code, just an idea on how to do this without repainting the background every time the mouse is moved (because the picture in the background is complicated to draw and takes like a second).
Thanks
[nvm, found out about xormode]

This would be further optimised at time of rendering, by drawing both the 'picture in the background' BI and rectangle to a second BI, and finally writing that 2nd BI to the Graphics object.
1) There are potentially other improvements that can be made, particularly with clipping, but I suspect if you try as I suggested, the rendering will be very quick and responsive. I have 40 FPS sound trace animations that do a great deal more on each call to paintComponent(), before bursting the final BI to screen.

Help with creating a search box

Lo,
I am making a website using dreamweaver 8 and was wondering
if anyone could help me in making a simple search box. If your
wondering what i mean when i say search box, i mean a text field
where you can enter a search subject and a button to submit the
search. Not unlike the search areas you see on most popular
websites. So far I've been able to make the text field and button
but i am having trouble with scripting them so that they actually
preform a search. I'm guessing that I will have to make a new page
that to display search results, but other that that i'm pretty much
in the dark about how to go about it. Anyone who could help me out
or show me where I could get help, I would really appriciate
it!

Thats a good one Nancy, might look into that for an upcoming
client.
Atomz have one as well, customizable too.

RVS4000: Need help with out-of-the-box device

The router is performing very badly.
1. Router's "INTERNET" is connected to ADSL cable modem, providing automatically an IP address.
2. The device is getting "freezed"/"stoned" very often. The longest time record for up-time was just over 1 hour. The shortest up-time was somewhere over 2 minutes.
3. When "freezed" the router:
    a. Still can perform as a switch
    b. No access to WAN
    c. No ping to the router
    d. Green indication lamps.
    e. No access to the web-interface
4. Same behavior with 1.3.0.5, 1.3.1.0 and 1.3.2.0 firmwares
5. Sometimes after "Restore to factory defaults" DIAG-RED led is lit, and does not go off.
6. To get device back helps to power-off it for an hour or two.
Is it possible to get any information from the router, when it is "freezed"

Pavel Kopylov,
It look like we got out of sync. I see you just sent another reply about opening the box Friday.
With it only being Friday, I would take it back to the store I bought it from and get another. The same or better.
======================================================================
If you want to use this as a learning experiance and figure out this problem yourself, then the following maybe for you:
In all of your communications. I hear you saying your RVS-4000 freezes and will not communicate. No in or out of data. Is that correct?
You are also saying, these freezes occur at various times. Correct?
Which I hope this means is that it is working until it stops working...
If that is correct. Then you need to figure out if the problem is coming in over your WAN connection or it's the hardware of the Router itself.
If you think it's the hardware of the Router. Then do things like measure the temperatures of the Router. (Carefully) Try to heat it or cool it to see if this makes it fail, quicker... Check the Voltage to this Router and make sure it's correct and you are not getting Black outs or brownouts, etc... Also check for lose data connectors. (Watch the lights on the front panel)
However, If you think this is from a TCP/UDP attack on your Router. Then you can place a HUB between your Router and the Cable/DSL Modem and the Router. Next plug in a PC into the same HUB and run Network Software Monitoring on this PC in Continues Record mode. Until a failure. Then go thru the Data and see what you find.
There are a few free Network Software Monitoring Tools you can find and download. Even Microsoft has a nice one for free. Microsoft Network Monitor 3.x
You can also buy another Router. The same or better and if you have the same kind of problems. Then it just might be coming in over your connection. And the new Router can then be returned as its still new.
You can call Cisco and or your local ISP and work with them on this problem.
These are just a few Ideas... I'm sure others will have even more.

Help with Radio Buttons & Combo Box for Flash Form that sends email

I'm having a bit of a hard time with a Flash form that I'm working on.
I've got the basic text fields working fine, but I'm not sure how to retrieve the values from the Radio Button and Menu List components.
The PHP script pulls the values from the text fields with:
$contact_name = $_POST['name'];
$contact_email = $_POST['email'];
$contact_subject = $_POST['subject'];
but using
$radioGroup = $_POST['radioGroup'];
doesn't retrieve the selected radio button value.
The radio buttons have a groupName of "radioGroup". The combo box component doesn't even show up in the HTML version, but does in the .swf.
Can anyone point me in the correct direction to pull these values from these components and get them passed to the PHP form? The native .FLA and the php file are here for reference:
http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/21984/flashform.zip
My solution needs to be ActionScript 2.
Thanks!

again, you assign a variable. the selected radiobutton's data and/or label isn't going to magically be sent to the php file.
for example, if you have sendLV and receiveLV loadvars instances, you can use:
sendLV.rbData=yourradiogroup.selection.data;
sendLV.yourothervariables=yourothervariables;
sendLV.sendAndLoad("yourphp.php",receiveLV,"POST");

Help with building a select box from a query?

New thread from a topic I started yesterday. From the responses, and a search of other threads, I realized that I was way off base:-) So, I went back and verified that my TomCat setup was alright. After a few tweeks I verified that I could display the index page and successfully run all of the example servlets and jsps. I then built a simple login.jsp and an associated bean to verify a user id and password on an ldap db. That works good. Next, I built a bean which runs a query against the same ldap db and returns a list of last names. What I want to do is use the last names in the bean to populate my select box. At first I was trying to build the html with the list from my bean, i quickly realized you guys didn't like that approach. So, can someone explain, in some detail (because I'm really dense), just how I can return the values from my bean and build a select box with those values.
regards,
Mat
BTW Gone to see Lord of The Rings...back in about 5 hours :-)

Just in general, I prefer knowing how to do things the "old-fashioned way" first before using other tools, because if it comes time for you to take over someone else's code, you'll probably find that they did it the old way and you'll want to understand that. Further, the new ways are based on the old ways for many things.
Struts is a good system, but unless you have some understanding of the basics, it's probably going to be harder to understand it. If you have the time, I'd say at least go thru one book on JSP/servlets (which should be all about the basics, maybe a slightly older book) and go thru the examples in it.

Request for help with apex page popup on button press.

Apex 3.2/Solaris 10
I'm attempting to open an apex page (report) in a popup window when a button is pressed following the plethora of examples in the forum.
I've applied the following in "Edit Page Buttons" to either of "Button Attributes" and "URL Target" trying to open my report (page 14) in a popup window.
javascript.popupURL('f?p=&APP_ID.:14:&SESSION.');
javascript.popup2('f?p=&APP_ID.:14:&SESSION.');
window.open('f?p=&APP_ID.:14:&SESSION.');
I've also implemented the conditional branch for this button to alleviate the "page not found - restart application" error.
The window.open variant does not work. The 2 javascript. variants open the page, but in the same window (no popup).
also I've read that in order to close my pop up report (should it be working), a window.close(); should be issued somehow associated with a close button on the popup page. Specifically, where would this code be placed?
Thank you!
Paul

Paul:
Specify the URL as
javascript:popupURL('f?p=&APP_ID.:14:&SESSION.');
instead of
javascript.popupURL('f?p=&APP_ID.:14:&SESSION.');

Help with code for Selection Box

Hi All,
I have written the below code in the Data Section of the infoset
BEGIN OF IT_TYP-SALE OCCURS 0,
LTEXT TYPE TVKOT-VTEXT,
END OF IT_TYP-SALE.
DATA: IT_RETURN LIKE DDSHRETVAL OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
The code works fine, but when the user presses F4 in the box which opens the header displayed is 'Name' which is the header for TVKOT-VTEXT. I would like to know how i can define a custom header Eg: 'Company Name'.
Hope my problem is clear, await assitance.
Vivek

Hi,
Thanks for the inputs, what i really need is how i can define a custom text. As the header i want to display is not a standard field header. So in that case how should i declare?
Note: The Company Name was only a example.
Any suggestion on how i can have a custom name appearing as the header instead of the table field header?

Please help with junk mail folders/boxes on MacPro Yosemite 10.10.2

'I have 4 email accounts set up using the mail program on my Macbook Pro. On the left panel of the mail program Under the heading 'MAILBOXES' it shows a tray for INBOX and then there is a tray/ for each of those 4 accounts. When I click on each account I receive the emails designated for those accounts. Then a little lower down the panel there is are titles for DRAFTS, SENT, JUNK, each of these titles also list the different email accounts under them. If I scroll down a little further these things seem broken down even more and there are other main headings called 'ON MY MAC' with another JUNK folder and then Additional heading with JUNK folders for them! All of those junk folders are empty. The only junk folders that seem to get mail is the one under the 'MAILBOXES' heading. (I hope this is making sense so far!! ) My problem for example...when I look at the JUNK folder for my gmail account there are alot of emails in there that shouldn't be. However, there is no way to 'unmark' them as not JUNK. When I go to use the little 'thumbs up' icon there is only a 'thunbs down' icon available. In other words the emails in this JUNK folder have not been marked as junk. So here are my questions:
1. Why are they being sent there?
2. How can I stop them from being sent there (since the unmark as junk is not an option).
3. Why are there so many junk boxes.
4. What is the difference between the JUNK under the 'MAILBOXES' heading and the JUNK under the other heading that are empty?
As you can tell I am pretty clueless and there is probably an easy answer...thanks for your patience and sorry for the long issue.

If the window’s toolbar is hidden, either do View > Show Toolbar or click on the grey oblong button at the top right corner of the window.

Need help with xml and combo boxes

Basically what im doing is a ui for a electronic book.
The book is broken into 3 parts and each part has its own set
of chapters.
My xml schema is pasted below.
And what i would like is to have two comboBoxes .
The first one would list the names of the parts available,
ie.. Part I, Part II, Part III.
the Second one would list the chapters avalable under that
part. For example, If Part i, is sected then the secodn combo box
would list chapter 1-5, while if the second part is selected, the
second combo box would list chapters 6-10.
Im using flash 8 pro, and the xmlconnector and comboboxes.
Maybe there is an easier way. PLEASE HALLP! This is driving me
nuts.
XML Schema:

Hi
I have just done this for another guy in this forum, I can
send you an example using UI Components - 3 Comboboxes each shows
the sub-options of its parent, one more than what you want. The
secret is in the construct of the XML file and how this creates the
correct Schema for binding.
Post me an email address and I can send you the files.

CRVS2010 Beta - Help with parameters

Could somone help: I have created a CR which uses two static parameter fields for 'DateFrom' and 'DateTo' on the report. The parameters are passed to an ASP.NET web page via a query string, and then I use Dim Fromdate As String = Request.QueryString("from") etc to send the parameter via code. The problem I'm having is this. The DateFrom and DateTo values are being sent to the report ( I simply use them in the report header to display the from and to dates selected by the user for the report ) and the report display's as expected. But when you click 'Next' in the multipage report, the report prompts with a parameter popup box to reenter the dates. Once you enter the values, you can page back and forth without any more interuptions.   Note: I'm using Visual Studio 2010 with the latest install of crystal report's for VS 2010.
Would anyone know what I have set wrong? Here is the code that I use to populat the report.
Dim reportpath As String = ""

For those interested, I figured out what was happening. There is a new question added to the parameter property's when adding/editing report parameters called "Show On Viewer Panel". This needs to be set to "DO NOT SHOW" to disable the prompts for passed in via code.

Help! Thanks!

I am having the same problem and it seems to have just started (6/15/11). I have tried reloading the program several times and even the first release of the 4.o with no success. The same scenario also occurs when I click to open a new "tab" after the browser is already launched.
