Keeping track of good examples

As I learn more about HTML / CSS / PHP and read the answers freely given by the "Gurus", I am impressed by how often there is a ready made solution / paper / example which is used to demonstrate a technique.
My question, then, is how you keep track of all the examples? So I have just been reading a good article on CSS - Auto-height and margin collapding by Minz Meyer. I want to have that in my armoury, but don't want to keep it on paper. How do you index that, and all the other examples? Or is it just down to google
As a "Thank You" for all the help I have received and will probably continue to ask for, I now find that I can help too sometimes, so would like to build my own database of support. Just wondered how the great and the good do it??
Bob

Yes - Thank you! I probably need to think about the indexing of my favourites

How to register and keep track on item packaging during transactions

Hi,
I have items which I receive in inventory under different packaging. I want that when I receive or issue it from the warehouse, I keep track also on the packaging that the transaction is done.
E.g. Oil for vehicle engine:
Item parameters: "10x40"
Manufacturer: Elf
I receive:
100 liters, 100 pieces, package: 1 liter.
500 liter, 100 pieces, package: 5 liter.
I want to know that I have in total 600 liters of Oil 10x40 of manufacturer Elf and from the other hand I want to know how many pieces of 1 liter and how many of 5 liters I have.
Please help me to configure this in INV module.
Thank you.

Hi Glen,
Thanks heaps for your reply! Sorry I am so slow to implement it, send it to my client, and then realise it is borked still! I went with the storing the ICalUid (which I think IS the CleanGlobalObjectId you mentioned after I dissected the blogs you
posted) in my database. I stored the ICalUid of the appointment on the server, and the ICalUid of the one I created on the client in it's SQLCE database. This allowed me to find one from the other for updates and deletes or so I thought. Updates
are fine. But I still cannot find the deleted appointment on the server, or get enough info from the server, to find the right item to delete on the client. I can no longer access the ICalUid of the appointment on the server because first I have
to find the appointment in deleteditems or recoverabledeletions folder to get the ICalUid (or CleanGlobalObjectId). SyncFolderItems returns the subject but not startdate so I cannot search in deleted etc using that combo and I don't feel subject alone
will be reliable enough at all. So, what you proposed works beautifully, but not for my initial problem, which was deleting.
Maybe this is microsoft fault but SyncFolderItems does not seem to return enough info to perform an accurate delete of an item. If it helps at all I am following this example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange/ee693003(v=exchg.80).aspx but
of course the good folks at MS haven't filled in the important bits!

How to keep track of an iterator?

Hi everyone.
I'm having an issue trying to keep track of an interator in a tree map.
Basically my application is an address book, and it has the following button:
First Prev Next Last
So if they press the first button it will run the following code:
Collection c = treeMap.values();
        //obtain iterator for tree map
        Iterator iter = c.iterator();
        //get first item in the list
        Contact temp = (Contact)iter.next();This works fine.
But now I'm trying to get the Last element in the tree and then assign a "global" iterator to it, infact all the buttons should have an iterator that will keep track of where the current element is...and thats where I'm having problems with.
So if I get the first element when someone presses the first button, I would like to now assign an iterator to that position, so if someone presses the Next button, I would just do iter.next(); and then display the information .
The problem is though, I also need to go back 1 element if the user presses the Previous button...is there a way to go forward and backward with an iterator?
I have an internal iterator keeping track of things but I get an error, like for example:
Collection c = treeMap.values();
         int count = 0;
        //obtain iterator for tree map
        Iterator iter = c.iterator();
        while(iter.hasNext() && count < treeMap.size()-1)
            count++;
            iter.next();
        trackIter = iter.next();trackIter = iter.next();
I want trackIter to point to whatever iter.next() is pointing at, which in this case, is the last element in the list but I get an error here saying:
found : java.lang.Object
required: java.util.Iterator
trackIter = iter.next();
Any ideas?
Thanks

First of all your bug.
Iterators return Objects.
What kind of object it returns depends on what you were shoving into the Map. If you shoved a Dog into the map, then the iterator returns the Dog, but the Iterator and the Collection only knows that it is an Object, not that it is a Dog. Your code that needed to get a Dog back, needs to cast the result returned by the iterator as a Dog
trackItem = (Dog) iter.next();
However, before you haul off and fix your code, twould be best to fix your design. Your question, "is there a way to go forward and backward with an iterator?" is a good question. Before I tell you the answer, let me ask you a question? What are you going to do if the answer is "NO - you can't go forward and backward"
I mean, it's OK to hack and slash around, trying this and that, but generally it would be good to know the answer to that question BEFORE you write a bunch of code involving iterators, because when you find out that you CAN'T go both forward and backwards with an iterator, what are you gonna do. Are you going to leave part of the design working one way, using iterators for going next and then some totally different mechanism to go the other way? Of course you could do that, but that is not really how one arrives at good design, by first hacking out one feature until you can get it working and then turning you attention to the next and hacking out a different bunch of code.
Observe that Collections can be converted to Arrays and that Arrays have indicies and moving forward and backward in an array is a simple matter of incrementing or decrementing an integer and testing if you fell of the end. Also arrays, having no particular order restrictions can be sorted, or re-ordered any way that you like. How much easier your problem would be if only you had an array instead of a Collection.
Don't take the criticism of your design the wrong way. I actually like the idea of using something like an iterator for your buttons, but the thing you are using is not really an iterator. As you said it must go both ways. It is really more like a text cursor where you can advance forward and backwards over a list. So build a Cursor class that you can hand an array. Give it routines like, first(), last(), mid(), stepForward(), stepBack(), getCurrent(), getIndex(), setIndex().
And then you ask yourself, "before I write this code - let me see if someone has already written it." you look up Cursor in the API. Nope, there is a cursor class, but it is for crossHair cursors and the like. Then you ask yourself, "What else could they have called this?" How about ListIterator. Bingo - there you are, an interface class that has hasNext, hasPrevious, ... But it is only an interface. It doesn't do anything. What kind of class would implement this interface? Maybe List, so you look up List. Drat, it is some disgusting awt component. Oh wait, there's another interface, List, and there on the "All known Implementing Classes" you see LinkedList, ArrayList and others.
Cool. You can reduce a collection to an array, if you could get an array into one of these list types, you could have your interface all built for you and everything, or if it isn't exactly what you want, no big deal, you already know the interface you need, you can just build it, whatever reduces your effort.
See how it works? And just for the record, I didn't know about ListIterators, when I started typing this. But I know a design principle that helped me find it. I don't grab a component that I know and see if I can make the system work with the thing that I know. Instead I think of what I want it to do, try to design the interface for what I want it to do and then, once I know what I want from a structural standpoint, I start groveling around to see if that thing already exists.
You were almost there. When you asked if an Iterator goes both forwards and backwards. And the answer is, "No"
I see that others have posted before I finished writing this tome. Reversing the array and creating an iterator for that list will not get you the behavior that you are in some state, at some place in the list, from which you can go either forward or backwards. It just gets you a way to go backwards through the list.
On the assumption that you are a student attempting to learn something, I would suggest that you actually do both approaches. Using the ListIterator approach is what you would do in a production environment (I just need this one behavior and it already exists over here) but you will probably learn more if you implement your own cursor class as I described above. The point is that you have a chunk of functionality, knowing where you are in a list and being able to step either forward or backward, that you want to achieve. The way that you get some chunk of functionality is that you design and build a class that lets you get that functionality. Iterator is NOT that class.

Keeping track of current clients on server

My problem is that i have all these clients connected to my server. I don't want the same client connecting to the server if he is already connected.
I was thinking that I could keep track of who is currently connected on the server side, but that leaves many gaps. What happens when a client crashes, and he just drops off the server. The server won't know this happened, and it would be hard to know which client dropped off.
My next idea was that the server could send a query out to the clients, and each client that threw a IOException would be a client that wasn't logged on anymore. and i could cut his server connections, and end his thread.
Is there maybe a better way to keep track of clients currently connected to the server?

The idea of probing the clients can be a bad one, because it takes some time for the server to figure out that a client isn't on. The query you send out will be the same as any other data, and if the query could find out the connection is down, then the connection would already have been broken somewhere else, and you'd know the user is offline. (Assuming you have sane coding practises, which is an IOException handler around the main data loop, and a finally{} block which marks the user as disconnected.)
One way to ensure that the same user isn't connected twice is to boot off the first instance when the second instance connects. Regrettably a lot of company's solutions to this problem are the other way around, and block you from logging into the server until the first connection times out (a good example of this is the MMOCRPG, Ragnarok Online, where getting disconnected means having to wait about 60 seconds until the server realises your first connection is gone. ;-))

Keeping Track of File Operations in DW CS5

Hi there.
I've got a general question about keeping track of files changed/moved/renamed etc. in DW CS5.
For example, if I rename a file from within DW, I'm asked if I want to update links. That's all well and good, but other than writing down the name of all the files mentioned in this dialog (which can't be copied using keyboard shortcuts unfortunately), how do I know which midified files need to be uploaded via FTP? Please note, I don't use DW's FTP facilities, but keep my FTP activities separate, using FileZilla.
Another, example - I recently moved a file within the tree structure and all the css broke. I swear I didn't move any css files, but the problem was fixed by back loading the original css files.
Since DW is capable of site-wide file changes, it strikes me as crucial to be able to at least see what has been done, even if changes can only be reversed manually.
So, is there a way of keeping track of these kinds of changes, such as a log other than an FTP log? Is it possible I'm getting into the realms of Version Control (which I so far know nothing about)?
Any help much appreciated,
Robin.

I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.

Where is the file that keeps track of which mail items were open?

Searching for the file that keeps track of which mail items were open- sometimes it suddenly is shorter, forgets some of the items of mail that was open, in my 'in box' as it were.
just happened to me- 15 emails I wanted to keep open till I answered them are now lost back in the mail stack
any idea where i can find that, retrieve from a backup done last week?
any trick to fixing this problem?
hope so
i gotta track down some of those emails, will be a huge chore to do it one by one
thanks

any idea where i can find that, retrieve from a backup done last week?
Good luck with that; it's not likely to happen.
any trick to fixing this problem?
You could just reply to the email right away, rather than putting it off until later, whenever "later" happens to be. Or, you could also put your emails that have not yet been replied to in a separate folder, and move them out into your Inbox when you have replied.

Does the Ipod nano 4th gen keep track of playcounts?

I am not talking about how many times you play a song on the computer on itunes. but does the ipod itself keep track how many times you play a song on the ipod? where can i find this information?

I did that, and it is completely the same. Here is pictures of it
this right here is my top 25 for my ipod....
http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/7069/top25onipodqg6.png
what you see right here is teh same exact playcounts that is seen on my computer's top 25 when no ipod is connected. there are some wierd differences though, for example flashing lights on my ipod is played only like 5 times or something, whereas on the computer its number 3 played with 375 times played. also pepita(the song on the bottom of the list), is on my top 25 on my computer, but i have not played it yet on my ipod, and the ipod's top 25 accurately shows this. so basically the ipod's top 25 accurately tells teh playcounts for flashing lights and pepita, but not for the rest.
can anyone make any sense of this? how do i find the playcounts for solely my ipod?

Keeping track of logins

Probably a stupid question, but one I've been banging at for a while and can't seem to find the answer to in WGM or the documentation, so I thought I'd ask...
I have a small office network that I manage (since no one else is willing to). We're in and out a lot, and for a number of reasons it would be helpful to be able to keep track of which accounts were accessed when.
Does WGM have a log of login/logout times for the various accounts?

Cool!
Not exactly what I was looking for, but it covers it pretty well, and lists other major events too, which is nice! (Discovered that we had a power outage last night, for example.)
I'd still love to be able to do a search by account... but this will take care of my needs for now.
Ah, UNIX. All of your lovely, annoying little commands and utilities that are somehow never fully documented anywhere...

How to keep track of the changes done in ALV GRID Report

Hi,
Access the table through SM30. It comes blank as standard. Click "New Entries" and make entries for changes to be tracked. For example, whenever an org. unit changes 002 and 003 relationship, you will make entries like:
01 O 1001 B002 Activate box checked
01 O 1001 B003 Activate box checked
Here, 01 is your active plan version, O is org. unit, 1001 is infotype and B002 and B003 are the subtypes. You can also use * for infotype and subtype which means every change will be logged.
If you then run the report RHCDOC_DISPLAY through SA38, it will pick up all the changes pertaining to B002 and B003 relationship for org. units (in the above example).
Similarly, you can set up this table for other object types.
For more information, follow SPRO>Personnel Management>OM>Basic Settings>Activate change documents and go through the documentation for that node. Also, read up the documentation for the report.

How to keep track of how many records to display in a page.

Hi All:
I am using Weblogic 9.2, Web Services Client, and Struts.
I have a java client in struts that calls a web services.
The "ID" field contains a Java integer.
The "First_Name" is a Java String.
The "Effective_Date" field is a Java date field.
The web service returns an arrayList of a class called Result.
Code for Result.java:
>
public class Result
int id;
String first_Name;
Date effective_Date;
public int getId
return id;
public void setId(int id)
this.id=id;
public String getFirst_Name()
return first_Name;
public void setFirst_Name(String first_Name)
this.first_Name = first_Name;
public Date getEffective_Date()
return effective_Date;
public void setEffective_Date(Date effective_Date)
this.effective_Date=effective_Date;
From the arrayList, I displayed the result as the following:
ID FIRST_NAME EFFECTIVE_DATE
3 John 9/10/2007
2 Andrew 1/11/2006
5 Peter 3/4/2006
The "ID" header is a link.
The "First Name" header is a link.
The "EFFECTIVE_Date" is a link.
If I clicked on the link "ID", the first time, it will sort the rows in ascending
order like the following:
ID FIRST_NAME EFFECTIVE_DATE
2 Andrew 1/11/2006
3 John 9/10/2007
5 Peter 3/4/2006
If I clicked on the link "ID", the second time, it will sort the rows in descending
order like the following:
ID FIRST_NAME EFFECTIVE_DATE
5 Peter 3/4/2006
3 John 9/10/2007
2 Andrew 1/11/2006
If I clicked on the "First_Name" field the first time, it will sort the rows in
desceding order.
If I clicked on the "First_Name" field the second time, it will sort the rows in
ascending order.
This applies the same for the "EFFECTIVE_DATE".
If the arrayList returns 80 records of class Results.java.
I needed to displayed only the first 50 records for the first page and 30 records for the second page.
How do I keep track of that so that when I am in the second page, I know to display only record 51 to 80?
If I have a arrayList that returns 120 records of class Results.java.
In the first page, it displayed only 50 records.
In the second page, it displayed only 50 records.
In the third page, it displayed only 20 records.
Assuming I am able to sort the rows by ID, FirstName and Effective_Date by using Results.java implementing the
Java Comparator class. Is it still possible to keep track of how many records displayed in the first page and how many records should
be dispalyed in the second page?
Any hint would be greatly appreciate.
Yours,
Frustrated.

Best way to keep track of family members, etc

Hi-
I am a hobby photographer, and have been playing around with the trial version Aperture to replace iPhoto, and I have some questions.
1. What is the best way to keep track of family members? For example, I like to basically keep track by setting keywords, adding a keyword for each family member & dog. Is this still the way to do it in aperture, or is there a different solution?
2. If keywords are still the way, what is the fastest way to do this (in particular for multiple files at a time)? The various keyword buttons & shortcuts seem to only apply to one image at a time, whereas the batchchange option seems to only rely on freeform text-- which makes it likely that somewhere along the line I will get a typo.
Thanks,
-jamie

You can apply a keyword to multiple images by selecting a group of images and dropping a keyword from the keyword HUD onto one of the selected images.
I created keywords in the keyword HUD for family members, events (Christmas, Birthday, Vacation etc.), and some other things. Keywords you have already typed into an image will be in the keyword HUD already. I created a hierarchy of keywords such as:
People
-Family
--(names)
-Friends
--(names)
Events
-Holidays
--Christmas
--Halloween
Sorry for the dashes to show the indentations. I tried spaces but they didn't work for some reason.
