How can I test to anticipate user's monitor size/resolution?

I would like some help with how to test my web pages to see what they might look like with smaller monitors.
First off, the site is for a fine art artist so his most important audience is probably going to be using larger monitors well, I guess they are but that is not based on any empirical evidence! But I still want to know that the site looks good on a small monitor with lower resolution. I've just looked at my first attempt on my work monitor and things changed an awful lot. At home I use a 26" which is new and at work it's a cheapo 19"
My structure holds up but the whitespace and size of the images look entirely different and make the site appear less er... refined.
So here are my questions.
a) Can I set up my own pc to emulate smaller monitors with lower resolution without having to change the native resolution?
b) Am I worrying unnecessarily?
c) Is anyone aware of a tutorial out there?
Thanks
Martin

Hi Martin,
Even if you anticipate it is no use as you can't see the user screens...you have to simulate that at your end before making live.
All you need to do is decide for a minimum resolution that you want to support for your site and then design according to that.
Also you can manually change resolution on your montior and do some window resizing to see how the site looks.
A site cannot look the same at each resolutoin or in every monitor. The main idea is to ensure that your site never breaks down.
By the way u can always capture screen resolution at ur end using javacript screen object:

How can i test my vpn connection?

so recently i decided to test if ver 1.3.0.3 of the quickvpn client would work better with the 1.3.0.5 rvs4000 firmware. i loaded quickvpn to an xp pro computer (freshly built, i might add) and got to work. in order to test the connection, i attempted to piggy back off an unsecured wireless network. this network is on the same ISP network as i am.
i use dynamic DNS, and the unsecured wireless network could resolve my IP correctly, but for some reason i couldnt connect to my home network from the unsecured network. my router is set to respond to lan requests, but i couldnt ping it. my router passes HTTP traffic to a computer in my network, but i couldnt bring up the webpage. finally, my router responds with the router config page over port 443, and i couldnt bring that up.
so i used my ISP's dialup service to test. initially, as always, i had a million problems with the vpn client. systematically, i tried to resolve the issues. i installed the patch in the readme for quickvpn. i checked log files to see where stuff was failing. eventually, i could connect to the VPN, but would get that "remote gateway is not responding" crap. i know of a (poor) workaround for this which allows you to "finalize" the connection, but that workaround doesnt allow you to ping around in your network. sometime later, after randomly messing with settings, the tunnel would connect without the workaround. i have no idea what "fixed" this.
despite all this, my 28.8Kbps connection wouldnt allow me to do anything meaningful on my network. i couldnt connect to the router or to a server of mine (http or fileshare). the only thing i could do was ping internal devices. other requests seemed to "hang" rather than timeout or do anything more concrete. basically, i gave up on testing using dialup, even though my router and the client software confirm a good connection. but i still wasnt convinced.
next, i figured i could create some type of "DMZ" on my network by placing a switch between my ISP's modem and my router. im not a cisco network professional by any means, but im pretty familiar with networking on a above-average level. that said, despite my best, i couldnt get my quickvpn computer to see my router from the "DMZ".
finally, i figured i could just test the tunnel while directly connected to my network's lan. bad idea. everything seems to go okay until it locks up on "activating policy". rebooting or otherwise ending the negotiation ends in the computer being unable to do anything anymore. when i try to ping anything, i get "negotiating ip security" ad infinitum. the only way i could fix this was by doing a system restore.
so here's the question: how can i test my quickvpn connection?why can't i just tunnel through my network? and before you scream that you can't, thegreenbow vpn client has NO PROBLEM connecting to my rvs4000 while connected to my own network.

Hi Aaron,
I am going exactly the same thing as you however, I had my cousin buy and install a RVS4000 at his house in Australia.
I access it from the USA so that I can help manage his Local Area Network, he is just not technical..
I setup a DDNS client on his RVS4000 so that I can always get to his Router via a domain name rather than a IP address.
I noticed that you didn't mention anything regarding importing client certificate into the directory of the VPN client on your PC.
I also noticed I disabled IPSec passthrough on the router in Australia, see the pictures below, not sure why, but the VPN client is working.
I also did not setup any gateway to gateway VPN tunnels, Only added a client , exported certificate as per the manual, See the last screen capture below.
You will also note if you view the screen captures that my cousins RVS4000 has not been upgraded to the new code.Is there a reason for that...not really...he's just a user, not really technical. Also note I have not added any VPN tunnels on my RVS4000.
I have a reasonably reliable connection between the USA and Australia. I didn;t have to play with any other options, just add users to the VPN client database.
Your description of the working environment of your PC is missing details on the version of XP, so i will mention the following taken from the software release notes of the RVS4000 ;
There is a known issue with Windows XP SP2 Firewall.
ICMP packets are always dropped by the firewall when the firewall is enabled.
This issue causes the QuickVPN client to be unable to establish a tunnel with the remote QuickVPN server successfully.
Microsoft has released a patch to fix this issue, which you can get from:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/889527/en-us
After you install the patch, the issue should be resolved. You can also fix this issue by upgrading Windows XP to SP3.
You cannot plug a PC on the same network as the router for testing, they must be on dissimilar WAN networks for testing purposes.
Your remote PC VPN client will not be allocated a IP address in the RVS4000's network, hosts behind the RVS4000 will still respond to pings, as they direct the responses to their default gateway, the RVS4000.
The thegreenbow VPN client is a distracter at this point costing 50 something EURO for a license, lets try to get the quickVPN client working !
So, if you still wish try the following, firstly make sure your XP has been upgraded to SP3;
1. If you upgraded your router to the new version of code, then reset your router to factory defaults to re-initialize your router, yes start again.
2. Export the VPN client certificate to the directory that contains the VPN client. In my case it is;
"C:\Program Files\Cisco Small Business\QuickVPN Client"
3. add a VPN client account to the router
4. Use port 60443 from the quickVPN client. and try VPNing to the router.
5 hmmm, if the client still fails try disabling IPSec Passthrough on the router for grins and giggles.
If this fails, call the SBSC at the following location for resolution;

Hi schaerm,
you have to dig deeper.
An idea is this one:
The red marked word is containing the unit - in a coded way. Somewhere in the LV help you can find the description of this coding (I remember a chapter on memory representations of all LV datatypes...). (There surely is an easier or better way - but the example is done quic&dirty.)
You can also format the number into a string and analyze the unit here...

How can I test (Abap) a session is from type RFC

Hi ,
How can I test (Abap) a session is from type RFC ? Field in SY tables ?

He wants to know if it's possible to tell by the currently running code whether it was called via RFC.
Transaction SM04 is able to tell about a user session if it is RFC or not... so by analyzing that code, it should be possible.

How can I test the log in state from in side the Operator Interface code.

From inside LabVIEW Full OI, I want to test if the operator logged in after the IApplicationMgr Start.
Right after the IApplicationMgr ‘Start’ I have a loop that tests the IApplicationMgr ‘LoginLogoutRunning’ state and waits until the LoginLogout call back is done.
I want to exit if the program if operator canceled the login and did not log in.
I have tried “GetEngine” ref. From there get the “CurrentUser” ref but seems not to contain any information about the Current User.
How can I test from my Operator Interface code logged in state of the application?
Thanks
Jim D.

Try Engine.CurrentUserHasPrivilege
For the string parameter 'privilegeName' enter Priv_UserLoggedIn or the string value "*".
"Priv_UserLoggedIn–(Value: "*") Use this value with the Engine.CurrentUserHasPrivilege method to determine whether a user is logged in."
Option 2: You could also setup a callback on application manager for UserChanged Event. If the User is null then the login was canceled. (see a copy of the help further down)
From the teststand help for Engine.CurrentUserHasPrivilege method below...
CurrentUserHasPrivilege Method
Syntax
Engine.CurrentUserHasPrivilege ( privilegeName)
Return Value
Boolean
True if the current user has the privilege.
Purpose
Confirms whether the current user or any user group that the user is a member of has a specific privilege.
Remarks
Returns True when the privilege property is True, when the privilege property of any group that contains the privilege is True, or when privilege checking is disabled, StationOptions.EnableUserPrivilegeChecking is False. If privilege checking is disabled but StationOptions.RequireUserLogin is True, this function returns True only if there is a user currently logged on.
Parameters
privilegeName As String
[In] Specifies the name of the privilege to check. You can specify the name of any privilege property. You can specify the full privilege path in the user privileges property tree, for example, Debug.RunSelectedSteps, or you can specify the base privilege name, RunSelectedSteps. If you specify only the base privilege name and more than one instance of the base privilege name exists, then the method returns the value of the first base privilege it finds with that name. Refer to UserPrivileges for more information.
Teststand callback for UserChanged Event...
UserChanged Event
Syntax
ControlName_UserChanged ( user)
Applies To
ApplicationMgr
Purpose
Occurs when the current user logged in changes.
Remarks
Use this event to update the parts of your user interface that depend on user permissions when the current user logged in changes.
Parameters
user As User
[In] Current user. If this parameter is NULL, there is no user logged in.

How can reset password of bulk users in one time through AD or script?

how can reset password of bulk users in one time through AD or script?

Hello Mr. Lovely,
Do you have ActiveDirectory Module which shipped with Windows Server 2008 R2? If you have it, you can complete this task very easily.
#First, you need to import ActiveDirectory Module
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
#Second, generate a SecureString which contains the password.
$securePwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "P@ssw0rd!" -Force -AsPlainText
#Third, find the Active Directory users ,and use Set-ADAccountPassword for resetng the password.
Get-ADUser -Filter {Name -like "Test*"} | Set-ADAccountPassword -NewPassword $securePwd
Also, you can review following link for more details about the Active Directory cmdlets.

Question: Do you think the response from the support staff is correct? I mean, surely, I can't be the only CF user on a shared box whose other users need to modify the date and time within their applications. Even if they do it at the application level for their domain, surely it wouldn't affect mine, would it? That was what was implied by the support people, but I have a feeling they are way off, or covering for some goof-up on their end. I struggled like hell yesterday trying to get this to work and I did not get very far at all.
I found an interesting tutorial here which does a comparison of time zones and, theoretically, this might do the trick. But if what the guy told me was nonsense then I won't bother with it. For the record, our calendar has been working fine for about a week now.

How can I test my thunderbolt port? It's not working after the update to 10.10.1

I have been using my computer with the Thunderbolt Port for a while and after updating to 10.10.1 and after I while of using my computer I tried to use the thunderbolt port with my external monitor.. and it doesn't work at all.. video doesn't come out.. I tried a different screen with the mini adapter from thunderbolt to HDMI and another with thunderbolt to VGA and in both adapters I don't get video from my mac.
Any idea how can I test my Thunder bolt port?
This is what I have done:
1 cable adapter thunder bolt to mini HDMI to an LCD screen with HDMI : No video, but my computer detects that there is something connected
2 cable adapter thunder bolt to VGA to an LCD screen with VGA : No video, but my computer detects that there is something connected
3 cable adapter thunder bolt to mini HDMI to an 40' TV with HDMI : No video, but my computer detects that there is something connected
All the test pass from the Hardware test at the startup (press D at boot time).
Any ideas? my guarantee it's expired and no coverage. Due the nature of where the port it's installed, if this is a hardware problem seems that I will (may be) have to buy the Logic Board.. no good. No bueno!!
Thanks!!!

How can I test a RTP(send&receive) application on the same computer?

I an writing an application that lets one computer (A) sends a media file to another computer (B) and B receives it and play it.
But how can I test this application on the same computer
Eg.Transmitter: localhost 43000
Receiver: localhost 43000
It will retuen an error since the port number is alreeady used by another program.
I know if I test it on different computers, it should be fine, but how can I test it on the same computer?

JMStudio sends RTP packets from the same UDP port as the specified in the destination port, so you can't try it in the same computer. The examples provided in http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/index.html follow this rule aswell, but it's easy to modify it:
rtpMgrs[streamid]=RTPManager.newInstance();
localAddr = new SessionAddress( InetAddress.getLocalHost(),localDataPort);
//By deafault, in the examples, they use remote DataPort instead of localDataPort.
//You can specify localDataPort to any different free port number, or to
//SessionAddress.ANY_PORT if you don't mind the port number
remoteAddr = new SessionAddress(destIpAddr,remoteDataPort);
rtpMgrs[streamid].initialize(localAddr);
rtpMgrs[streamid].addTarget(remoteAddr);

I just notice that when I open up bridge CS4 it takes awhile for it to refresh. When I go to film strip view and click on a picture it will not diplay it.
Then I change views and there is a line down the middle of the display where it gets update but the left side does not.
Any thoughts on what it could be?

How can I test it?

The only ways I can think of to test the card are XBench and the Apple Hardware Tests (insert Install DVD and restart while holding down 'd')

How can i create a new user with only read rights ?

How can i create a new user with only read rights ?

You are asking about a Database User I hope.
You can look into the Oracle 8i Documentation and find various privillages listed.
In particular, you may find:
Chapter 27 Privileges, Roles, and Security Policies
an intresting chapter.
You may want to do this with the various tools included with 8i - including the
Oracle DBA Studio - expand the Security node and you can create USERS and ROLES.
Or use SQL*Plus. To create a
user / password named John / Smith, you would login to SQL*Plus as System/manager (or other) and type in:
Create user John identified by Smith;
Grant CONNECT to John;
Grant SELECT ANY TABLE to John;
commit;
There is much more you can do
depending on your needs.
Please read the documentation.
