How Best to Learn HTML DB

I have developed with Oracle Forms for 8 years and wanted to learn this new development tool. I built the Issue Tracker tutorial. Now, I keep running into roadblocks when developing my own application. Can you offer any resources to get me a start?

Well firstly I'd suggest reading the (free) documentation, available on otn (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/index.html).
I'd also visit the HTMLDB Studio at -
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=18326:1:17605669481218133469::NO:::
I'd also regularly scan this very forum, there's LOTS of good advice etc here.
However the key way to learn I think is to try and make your own application.....I always tend to think it's only when you're faced with a brick wall that you learn new and interesting ways of getting past it!

How best to become a proficient Photoshop user (or better)??

Hello all,
I'd appreciate a steer.
I am an enthusiastic amateur digital photographer. I am also fairly proficient with computer stuff generally (my degree). In terms of digital photography, I'm off the bottom of the curve but not by much: I understand white balance, the rudiments of colour spaces, luminance, contrast, etc... but as soon as it gets complex I am out of my depth. Bottom line is I think I understand it as well, or better, than most people who come to Photoshop for the first time. So far with PS (CS4) I have managed to remove minor blemishes, fix red eye, adjust contrast and colour to make photos more interesting - but (for example) I got stuck when trying to remove an image from the background.
BASICALLY I want to know how best to learn PS to a professional level; I am smart enough to pick stuff up fast but too busy to attend a training course. So I'm looking for the best book, or the best video tutorial, or whatever that will take me from understanding the basics (tools, brushes, layers, etc) all the way through to being able to create pre-press standard images and "alternative art"!
What do you pros out there recommend, if you can remember that far back? I am thinking I can devote a few hours per week (3-6) and will keep studying as long as it takes.
Hope to hear from you,
Thanks
Alastair

As Curt says, Lynda.com does really have great tutorials, but there are a lot of good ones out there that are free. For example, Deke McClelland has posted great videos on the top 40 features of Photoshop (his choice of features of course) on his blog http://www.deke.com/dekepod. (Feature one and two haven't been posted yet.)
Regarding books, I recommend that you go to a bookstore or a site like Amazon.com, where you can preview some of the chapters of the books and read reader reviews. This is because people learn in different ways, and you need books that cater to your style of learning. I got the Classroom in a Book books for Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign at a discount when I registered my Adobe software, but I don't use them. I recently bought Martin Evening's Adobe Photoshop CS4 for Photographers, and it is much better for me. You might like something completely different. It would be great if you would report back on what works best for you. Good luck!

One Computer, Two Accounts - How Best to Proceed with MacOS 10.8.2?

My wife and I want to share our new iMac, and I'd like some advice on how best to do this without messing things up.
We both have iOS devices to sync, and we both are using the same iTunes Store Account. However, we each have our own iCloud account. We each have our own email accounts, Hotmail accounts, and Yahoo accounts. We each have our own account for the iMac, which I assume you would need if you wanted to maintain two different sets of Mail accounts and two different Facetime "accounts," what to speak of different desktop customization options.
Things we would like to share without duplicating files include: iPhoto library (~100 GB), iTunes media files (over 300 GB), Contacts list, (maybe) Calendar, and (maybe) Safari bookmarks. We do NOT want to share e-mail, Reminders, Facetime. Ideally, I would like for her to be able to sync her devices entirely through her iMac account. However, I am not opposed to her syncing her iOS devices through my account for some things and through her account for other things, if that is not easily avoidable.
Regarding the iTunes library, I could go either way on her having separate library files with separate ratings & playlists or just sharing the same library setup that I have. However, I would want her to have access to the same metadata that I have for all music and video files, since I have lots of custom album art as well as lyrics loaded in. Do we have to use the same library file in order to have access to the same metadata, which will be updated on a regular basis? If so, then is there a way to do that via two different computer accounts, or does she pretty much have to sync with my account?
Now regarding iPhoto libraries, I wouldn't mind us sharing the same "library" as well as the files, including ratings and albums. I would like for the "faces" setup to be the same for both of us, if possible, so that she does not have to repeat the process of face tagging. I read in an older article that sharing the iPhoto library could be accomplished by sending the iPhoto library file to an external hard drive, but as that seemed to be an older approach, I thought I would ask here if that is still the ideal approach. I might want to send the iPhoto library file to an external HD anyway for space considerations. But if I do this, and we are both using the same library file for viewing photos, then does she still see the same albums, events, and tags that I have created already?
Is there a way to share contacts and calendars without having to share other things like Notes and Reminders? I suppose I could have her sync this information via my account, but I'd be greatful to learn of a better way if there is one.

You can share out both the iTunes library and the iPhoto Library in their respective preferences. However, the sharing account must have both iTunes and iPhoto running. You can keep the account running with those things open in the background using Fast User Switching. Enable that in the Users & Groups system prefs and then never log out, just switch to the login screen or the other account using the Fast User switching menu.
I haven't done much actual use in either, so I don't know what the limits are (like making a playlist out of the shared tracks, syncing with iPhone/iPod, etc). For iPhoto, all the photos are available, but if you want to edit one, you have to import a copy into your own library. Another option might be to not keep the media inside the Library, but store it in the /Users/Shared folder. Then, set up your Libraries to leave the content where it is (Preferences). However, I don't think you'd get the metadata for the iTunes music. I believe that is all stored within the iTunes Library.
You can share iCloud calendars so the other person can see your calendar by right-clicking on the Calendar name. There will be an option to share the calendar, there. Also, you can do so from the iCloud web interface.
I've got nothing on sharing contacts. Not sure of a good way to do that besides maintaining two sets. You can start from the same source, but it will diverge over time as contacts are added and removed individually.

Hi, Can anyone recommended software to import dvd to iMovies. I need to import about a dozen homemade DVD's and edit them into a single DVD comprising the 'best bits'. How best can I do this. I have an external hard drive available for the job

Hi, Can anyone recommended software to import dvd to iMovies. I need to import about a dozen homemade DVD's and edit them into a single DVD comprising the 'best bits'. How best can I do this. I have an external hard drive available for the job

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion or later:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion onwards, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. (The same applies to Mountain Lion even though that has it preinstalled.) You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

I started to learn HTML, and I'm using text edit and everything is going fine, when I save the file with a .html extension and open it with safari I only view the code and not the webpage that was supposed to be created.

I started to learn HTML, and I'm using text edit and everything is going fine, when I save the file with a .html extension and open it with safari I only view the code and not the webpage that was supposed to be created.

That is because you don't have a web server configured and running to serve the html page. In order to see the page in a browser you need to access it using a url similar to http://localhost/~yourUserName if you are serving the page from your user account.
Prior to Mountain Lion you could go into web sharing and turn on the web server. With Mountain Lion there is no option, other than using terminal, to turn on the web server. The web sharing menu item has been removed in Mountain Lion. Apache is still on your computer but it will take a little searching these forums or the Internet to find how to turn it on.
If you want a graphic user interface to turn on/off the Apache server you could download and install a server application like xampp, http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html. I use this and it works well.

How best to include a copyright in JavaDoc?

Hello.
I am wondering how best to include a copyright notice, standard legal boilerplate, etc. in JavaDocs.
I realize that many developers include the text directly in a JavaDoc comment (perhaps using a template in their IDE for generating that automatically), but that seems less than ideal to me. Having a long boilerplate takes up a lot of unnecessary space in source files; with several hundred or thousand source files, that can be a big waste. Also, if the notice needs to be changed or updated, than going back to find and edit every instance of the notice can be challenging, even with a global search and replace. What I would like is basically the equivalent of an "include" tag that will include a single copyright notice wherever it appears, but JavaDoc does not appear to have a suitable feature.
The initial approach I have taken is to define a custom taglet with this ability. I am also playing with a custom annotation for noting copyrighted code as an additional reference to the copyright notice. The basic structure I have so far looks like this, in org.sample.legal:
- Copyright.java (interface defining a few constants such as default copyright date, default owner, etc. as well as the full default copyright notice)
- CopyrightAnnotation.java (annotation type for marking code as copyrighted)
- CopyrightTaglet.java (taglet for adding "@copyright" tags in JavaDoc)
Here's what the top of CopyrightTaglet looks like, to give a better sense of what it can handle:
package org.sample.legal;
import com.sun.tools.doclets.Taglet;
import com.sun.javadoc.*;
import java.util.Map;
* Represents the "@Copyright" tag. If empty, the default copyright notice
* will be displayed.
* This tag can be used in any overview, package, class, or interface
* {@link com.sun.javadoc.Doc}. This is not an inline tag.
* The tag can display a default value, the default value modified with
* a different copyright date, or a completely custom value. To display the
* default value, use "@Copyright" alone.
* To specify a different date, enter the copyright years separated by
* dashes (-) or commas (,); optional spaces are allowed. For example, the
* following will be recognized as valid dates:
* <ol>
* <li>"@Copyright 1999"</li>
* <li>"@Copyright 1999, 2000"</li>
* <li>"@Copyright 2001-2003</li>
* <li>"@Copyright 2001-3, 2005</li>
* </ol>
* To display a completely custom value, simply enter whatever text is to be
* displayed after the "@Copyright" tag.
* The text is displayed in italics to remind the reader of its
* importance.
* @Copyright
@CopyrightAnnotation
public class CopyrightTaglet
implements Copyright, Taglet {
private static final String NAME = "Copyright";
private static final String HEADER = "Copyright:";The "@Copyright" tag by itself produces output (based on the constants in the Copyright interface) like this:
Copyright:
Copyright © 2008 by Sample Organization. All rights reserved.
I have this all working fine, but my main question concerns whether this is a reasonable approach. Is there a better approach to this problem of making a single copy of the copyright text available everywhere? What other approaches are common?
Thanks for any advice.

Your approach lets you choose which classes, interfaces and members are copyrighted, or apply different copyrights for different parts of the source code. But in many cases (such as the Java API), the entire published API gets the same copyright notice. So we put the notice in the footer of each page:
-bottom 'Submit

Inc. in the US and other countries. Copyright 1993-1999 Sun Microsystems, Inc.

HOW DO i LEARN PHOTOSHOP

how do I leaRN TO PHOTOSHOP

Along with the suggestions for some good tutorials, much of the answer will depend on how YOU learn best.
Some learn better with reading.
Some learn better with doing.
Some learn better by watching others do it.
I am a combo of 1 & 2, with emphasis on 1. My wife is a combo of 2 & 3, with emphasis on 3. It just depends on the person.
One good resource for 1 & 2 is the Adobe Classroom in a Book PS CS __ , by Adobe Press. It has both the reading and then the doing, in a series of exercises. Those exercises are representative of real-world operations, and usually explore the multiple ways that PS allows the user to the same thing - the same end result is shown with several methods. As soon as CiaB comes out for my Adobe programs, I pick up a copy, and work through the exercises, while reading.
Considering the popularity of tutorials, I think that # 3 is a more common learning path nowadays.
Which ever path you choose, remember, you will never know everything about Photoshop. I've been using it commercially for almost two decades, and learn something new in these forums, almost every day.
Good luck and happy learning.

I need to know how best to import .mod files into elements 7

I need to know how best to import .mod files into elements 7

lornamarieslade
Are you working with .mod standard or widescreen?
If .mod standard, less problematic. The file just might import without issue. Worst case would probably be changing the file extension from .mod to .mpg just prior to import.
Now .mod widescreen is another story that revolves around maintaining the 16:9 flag that scretches the video for display after encoding. Some have said that the 16:9 flag is lost in the transfer to computer; some say certain editors such as Premiere Elements just cannot read/recognize the flag. Whatever the case this is what you should consider in your Premiere Elements 7 Windows.
a. If you need to rename the file extension from .mod to .mpg, do so prior to import.
b. Import the .mod or .mpg counterpart into your Premiere Elements 7 project using the project preset NTSC or PAL DV Widescreen (NTSC or PAL depends on your location of interest). You will probably see that the video does not fill the space in the Edit Mode Monitor (you will probably see standard 4:3 looking image rather than widescreen 16:9 looking image).
c. Right click the file in the Project media area, select Interpret Footage, and, in the Interpret Footage Dialog/Pixel Aspect Ratio section, dot the Conform To: and change the setting to
D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2)
or
D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.422)
depending on your location of interest.
A while back there used to be a program called SD Copy that did the job of file name change and adding the 16:9 flag prior to import of the .mod widescreen into Premiere Elements. But, I have lost track of the SD Copy and suspect that is it no longer available. I have dealt with this issue many times at a forum that I formerly frequent. Most have reported back that this workaround worked for them. It is worth a try. I am looking forward to your results.
If you do opt to upgrade to Premiere Elements 11 Windows (please go tryout before purchase), I am eager to learn how your .mod widescreen is handled by version 11 in your computer environment.
Thanks.
ATR
Add On...I just came across this download for SDCopy. It does not give the appearance of the original the link to which is broken. I have not downloaded and used the following since I do not have any .mod widescreen. So, no guarantees. Please let us know the outcome if you try it if Interpret Footage does not work for you.

How to return a html repsonse after form guide rendering in browser?

How to return a html repsonse after form guide rendering in browser indicating that server has recieved transmission and request is submitted succesfuly?
I am rendering the form guide in browser using guide invoke service and when i submit the data in browser to server through guide , it is displaying some random number in browser?
i need to display a resposne that request is submitted successfully?

how could i define a variable with "html data" ?
Create a variable of type document and then a service to read the html from where ever it's located. If you put it in LiveCycle, you can use the ReadRessource service. If it's on the file system, you can use the Read Document. If it's in the database, you can use the JDBC service.
Also, one more doubt where should i use this variable in my process to get the same?
You want the response once you've submitted the data, so the html is really the result of calling the process that's processing the data. So I would create an output variable of type document on that process.
Right now it displays a random number in the browser because your submit process is long lived. When a process is long lived (asynchronous), you invoke it and then you get an identifier back. It's kind of a fire and forget. You can use that identifier to check the status of the long lived process, since long lived processes can take hours, days to complete. You don't want your browser to wait that long, hence the identifier.
However if you change the process to be short lived (synchronous), the browser will wait for the result of the process, which really means the output variables for that process. If your output variable contains html, it'll display html.
So the key is make you submit process short lived and populate the output variables appropriately.
