List Menu Fighting With Embedded PDF Files, sub-items pop up behind the embedded PDFs

I’m trying to embed PDF file that will stay behind my javascript pop up menus on my website.
I tried setting the z-index for the menu in the css to 10 and the z-index on the embedded file to 1, that didn’t seem to do anything.
I know that you can embed a swf as an object and set the wmode to “transparent” , but it doesn’t seem to work the same way with a PDF. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

When I try to enter a URL or address into the window at the top of the Safari screen in Yosemite, a drop down menu appears with a bunch of icons on it which blocks the screen. I need to see the screen when I'm entering a URL line. How do I get the drop-down with the icons on it to go away?

How to populate DB column with filename from file browse item?

Hi,
Using APEX 3.1.2, I'm trying to easily allow maintenance of a filename stored in a DB column (VARCHAR2(1000)). Using the column as a file browse item seemed to be the way to go, but of course I don't want the resulting file to be uploaded and it appears as though an existing filename is not shown in a form when the row is retrieved.
After much searching, I found Checking filename length in File Browse item before uploading , but I'm not able to connect the dots. I was thinking that I could create a hidden file browse item and use a button to call Javascript function to activate it, then save the resulting filename to my DB column item and wipe out the hidden item before it was uploaded. But the hidden item doesn't appear, so I'm not able to reference it's form input name.
Hopefully this mess makes sense. Anyone?
Thanks!
Rich

Hi John,
From what I can tell, the path of a local file browsed from a file browse item cannot be retrieved because of security concerns. Although, it seems that while Firefox 3 only returns the filename sans directory, IE6 returns the full path:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en" dir="ltr">
<head><title>Form Test</title>
</head><body>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function GetDirectory()
strFile = document.FileForm.filename.value;
intPos = strFile.lastIndexOf("\\");
strDirectory = strFile.substring(0, intPos);
alert(strDirectory);
document.FileForm.Directory.value = strDirectory;
</script>
<form id="FileForm" name="FileForm">
<input type="file" id="filename" name="filename" value="" onChange="GetDirectory(this.value)">
<input type="hidden" id="Directory" name="Directory" value="">
</form>
</body>
</html>
This Win-specific code displays the path via IE6, but not in Firefox 3. Then again, I can't seem to preview posts here using FF3, either...

Everytime i go 'full screen' with a video, a red F pops up in the bottom toolbar (by windows flag) then dissapears when I exit...?

I was watching a YouTube video and as I pressed the button to go full screen I saw a square pop up in the bottom taskbar, like where the internet explorer and spotify icons are at the bottom of my screen, by the Windows start button. When I exited the video it dissapeared, so it was only up when i was full screen, it was never up there long enough for me to click on it. It was all red except for an italic f, which was white. After I watched a couple more videos, an actual pop up...popped up and said it had a X and said that windows had some kind of run time issue. I x-ed out of that, did'nt press OK.
I had read some things about the McAffee Security Scan Plus (which had installed with my adobe, just reinstalled it today....actually just got firefox today too-google chrome had not been working right for a while) and I decided to un-install that and it didn't stop the problem. I am wondering if this is something I should worry about? I'm not sure what it is and it has never appeared before. Please help!

I did a hard reset on my iphone 5. When it was resetting black lines with text saying there were errors popped up at the top of the screen. any ideas??

I did a hard reset on my Iphone 5, when it was resetting black lines with white text popped up at the top of the screen. Last line says _fetchBorrowedList:881 number of borrowed blocks 16. It is stuck at this point and will do nothing. Tried another hard reset and the same thing happened. Any Ideas??

Make an appointment at the genius bar and get the screen replaced if that's available in your area ($149) or get the phone replaced if it's not or if the damage is more extensive ($269).

Dropdown List Not Refresh with Static PDF

Hi,
I'm using LiveCycle ES2 version 9 to design my form and view using Acrobat X Pro. In my form, I have a dropdown list that binds to a data connection to populate the list of products available. The SQL query of the data connection is as simple as below,
"SELECT ProductCode, ProductName FROM PUB_Product WHERE ActiveInd = yes"
Everything works perfectly when I save my PDF in dynamic form. However, due to some limitation with dynamic form, I have no choice but to save the PDF in static form. Problem with static form arises when there are changes to PUB_Product table which could be adding/removing product, setting an active product to non-active and etc. In case of any changes, I have to re-open the PDF in LiveCycle and save it in order to have the latest data reflected in the form. Is there anything I can do so that the changes to the product table will straight away reflected in the form without having to re-save it?
Thanks in advance for your advise.
Regards,
Steven

Hi Paul,
Thanks for helping. I'm using Acrobat to view the PDF form. Thus, shouldn't have any problem connecting to the database.
I've captured some screenshots as below and hope it helps you understand my situation better.
This is my Access database
This is my PDF. Added a data connection "Product" using SQL Query "SELECT ProductCode, ProductName FROM PUB_Product WHERE ActiveInd=yes" whereby it will only extract the "active" products.
Binded the product code dropdown list with "Product" data connection to populate the list.
The output of the PDF form. Only the active products are being listed.
Now, if let's say I add a new product to my PUB_Product table, the dynamic form will straight away list the new product but not the static form.
Dynamic form
Static form
In order to see the new product listed in the static form dropdown list, I have to re-open the form in Live Cycle and just simply save it. So my question is, is there anything I can do to skip this "open and save" step?
Thanks.
Regards,
Steven

Repair iTunes Security Permissions
Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

Hello, I am having a problem with my trackpad. Somehow it popped out and the top layer has cracked.

I don't know how, I just came home one day after school and it was just like this. I don't have any money to spend to get it fixed, and I was wondering if there is anyway I can just fix it on my own. I've tried pushing it back down but it won't stay down. I don't know if I should get super glue and clamp it down and fix it that way, but I don't want risk shortfrying something in there. I am currently using a wireless mouse, and I'm fine with using it, I just want the track pad to come down so nothing just falls in and the problem worsens.

Bring it to an Apple store or AASP. Don't be surprised if they don't believe that it "just happend."

Please help! How can I validate Radio Buttons and List Menu with PHP.

Hello everyone, I have been learning PHP step by step and
making little projects.
The point is I find it easy to learn by doing "practical
projects."
I have been reading the David Powers's Book on PHP Solutions
and it's really great, however there is nothing mentioned regarding
Validating Radio buttons. I know the book cannot cover every aspect
of PHP and maybe someone in here can help.
I have been learning how to process HTML forms with PHP.
The problem is every book or tutorial I have read or
encountered fall short on validation.
I'm wondering how I can learn to validate Radio Buttons and
Select List Menu.
I have managed to create validation for all other fields but
have no clue as to how I can get validation for Radio Buttons and
List Menu.
I would also like an error message echoed when the user does
not click a button or make a selection and try to submit the form.
I would appreciate any help.
Patrick

It's not that default value is "None." In fact it's not. It
will only be
"none" when the form is submitted.
Also if your submit button is names 'send' then
$_POST['send'] will only be
set if the form was submitted.
Make sure you didn't hit the refresh button on your browser
which usually
reposts the information. Also make sure you did not reach the
form from
another form with the same button names.
Otherwise paste the snippet.
Also you can check what fields are set in the post array by
adding this to
the top of (or anywhere on) your page:
print_r($_POST);

I want to edit the application associated with pdf files, but the pdf file type is not available on the Applications tab under edit preferences. How do I add file types?

I am running Firefox 5.0 (Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0) under Kubuntu 11.04.

Thanks jscher2000, I tried your suggestion, but no joy (as expected). None of the extensions were .bin, and in fact, I can't find a single listing for handling the .bin extension in the entire (unfiltered) list.
That's why I'm so confused. Where is Firefox getting the name "VLC.bin (default)" from in the first place?
cor-el, I checked out the link that you posted.
I don't have an entry for "browser.download.pluginOverrideTypes" and the entry "plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types" was empty (default setting).
My bad, but I forgot to mention in my first post that I had also tried renaming the mimetypes.rdf file in my "Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx.default\" to .old to no avail.
Firefox created a new, almost empty file, but it didn't change the behavior for .bin files. I removed the new file and put the old file back in place after determining that clearing the file did not help, since I am otherwise happy with my current file-type options.
However, since the option to "Always perform this action" is grayed-out, I am looking into the possibility that the website is sending a misconfigured MIME type or is assigning "Content-Disposition: attachment" to the download. What's odd, though, is that I've never had problems getting binary files from the site in the past, and the problem started when the VLC player was installed.
I'll post back after I check into the server header data.

Missing images in RH8 with linked Word files

RH8 HTML and MS Word 2007
The images from linked Word documents are not showing up in my RH8 project.
Here's how the project is set up:
The RH project is in its standard location: C drive, in a subfolder underneath My RoboHelp Projects.
All content is included through the Link > Word Document option in RH.
MS Word source files are in a network location (because several other writers are maintaining the source content). There are about 20 MS Word source files.
I have an "Images" folder set up on the network at the same level as the source files, and we link the graphics into the MS Word files from there.
Through my forum research, I have found several suggestions that have have made RH recognize the images in my linked files (previously, we were simply inserting the images into the Word source files, so in RH, the image was ignored and there was simply a blank line with no graphic indicator at all). So I am now selecting Insert > Picture > Link to File as the method for building images into the MS Word source file. I have also found the suggestion to ensure that the images are retained in the document, by selecting Office Button > Prepare > Edit Links to Files, and then checking the option for "Save picture in document" for each of the linked pictures.
When I follow those methods, I now see a red-bordered box where the images should be, and the image file name is displayed in the box. However, I get an error message that says the image files used in each of the project htm files are "outside of the current project and will not be shown in Project Manager."
I cannot figure out where to place the images so that RH's Project Manager recognizes them as part of the project. RH does not automatically create an Images folder within Project Manager. I've tried creating one myself and placing images there (and then even linking my source files to the images within the project folder). But still no dice.
I have tried a volume of troubleshooting options--placing the linked source files and graphics within the project folder, leaving the source files on the network and placing copies in the project subfolders that RH creates after I link the source files into the project, etc etc etc. I've looked for a setting in RH that allows me to set a default location for images (never found one).
Ergo, lots of troubleshooting, and still only half a solution here.
I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone can shed some light. I am doing my best to avoid importing the graphics directly through RH because I want the online help to pick up the exact structure & content of the source files. This obviously negates the option for importing the Word content vs linking it in. In older versions of RH, I was at least accustomed to RH importing generically named images into the project regardless of whether they were copied directly into the Word file, but I see that this is not even an option when linking the source files into the project.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Best regards,
Athena

Hi Peter,
Thank you for the recommendations. I want to be sure I’m understanding “embedded” the correct way. Do you mean to insert the images directly into the file—i.e., selecting the MS Word option Insert Picture > Insert? Or do you mean to insert them by selecting Insert Picture > Link to File?
Also, could you let me know where in Windows Explorer I should attempt to trace the images? The image source files are stored with the content source files on my company network, in a separate sub-directory for Images (I have tested the build with all the files on my local drive as well). When I link the Word source files into RH and generate the topics, RH does not bring any images into the project folder within the My RoboHelp Projects directory on my local drive.
I have searched through all the project files/directories that RH creates (top-level project folder, as well as subfolders it creates for each Word linked file), and there are no image files (except for one that I placed in my RH master page). I have attached a screenshot of the project folder (MainProjectFolder.png) and one of the linked file sub-folders (LogBookProjectFolder.png).
The problem seems to be that RH is not recognizing an image as an image. RH knows there are supposed to be images in the htm topics because it does have the red box “placeholder” where the images should be, and the image names are displayed in the red boxes (see attached RH_Project.png screenshot). I have gone into the properties for an image and used the Image Name field to manually map to the directory that contains the source image. When I do that, the image then appears in the top-level project folder with the gold & green RH image icon, and it does then appear in the topic. But at that point, if I update the linked Word file, I lose the image again. I have set the topics with images to where they retain the RH image modifications I’ve done, but then the topic shows as broken in my TOC when I update the linked Word file, and those topics do not appear in the build at all when I generate the WebHelp.
Since RH also does not automatically create any kind of Images folder in the project during the process of linking and generating the source files, I have tried copy/pasting the source images into the top-level RH project folder prior to even linking/generating htm topics from the Word source files. But when I go to a topic and view the properties associated with the image placeholder, RH still does not display any of the image files I pasted into the project folder.
I am happy to provide my source file so that you can investigate this further. Please let me know if you need the file with the images inserted directly or if you need it with them linked in (in which case, I’ll send the image files too).
Thanks,
Athena

List/Menu (multiple selected) insert into MySQL

I have been building a feedback form and I am running into a
issue that when I place a list/menu that allows multiple selections
when I submit my form in my MySQL database it collected the
information but only on the last multiple selection.
For example, this is what my list/menu looks like.
<select name="occasion" size="5" multiple="MULTIPLE"
id="occasion">
<option value="Spur of the moment,">Spur of the
moment</option>
<option value="Family dinner">Family
dinner</option>
<option value="Special occasion (i.e.
birthday)">Special occasion (i.e. birthday)</option>
<option value="Office get together">Office get
together</option>
<option value="Romantic dinner">Romantic
dinner</option>
<option value="Night out with friends">Night out with
friends</option>
<option value="Business meeting">Business
meeting</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
And my MySQL database I have it set up as...
Field Type
occasion mediumtext
I do not know why I cannot have more than one selection
inputed into my field, what must I do to correct this? Everything
works perfectly expect the multi selected list/menu. I want to
place all that is selected in the list/menu in that one database
field called occasion.

Nope. An E_NOTICE error won't terminate the script, but
shouldn't happen
nevertheless. While developing, the error_reporting directive
should be
set to E_ALL|E_STRICT and _all_ reported problems should be
solved. It's
not only better coding style, but also helps to prevent real
errors. In
this particular case it was just a guess, because it was only
a part of
the code. But using an uninitialized variable with a '.='
operator for
example would lead to a notice, which should be fixed.

Yes, something like that.

All are correct and won't be deprecated. IMHO it's more or
less just
personal preference. It also depends on the used editor and
its syntax
highlighting capabilities. For example I use Eclipse/PDT for
all my PHP
scripts, which can also highlight variables inside a string.
But if the
above is your preferred way, there's nothing really wrong
with it.
Just some additional thoughts:
Personally I prefer as less escaping and concatenating as
possible,
because such a mixture of single quotes, double quotes, dots
and
sometimes even escaped quote signs (for example when printing
HTML)
_really_ confuses me. I like to keep my code clean and
readable.
Something like this:
print "<img src=\"".$someVar."\" ...>\n";
not only hurts my eye, it is also quite error-prone. It's
easy to miss a
quote or a backslash and get a parse error back, especially
in editors
with limited syntax highlighting (or none at all). So I would
prefer
print "<img src='$someVar' ...>\n";
or even
printf("<img src='%s' ...>\n", $someVar);
When it comes to performance issues, of course there's a
difference
between the various methods. But for me they don't really
matter. In
practice you usually won't notice any difference between an
echo, a
print or a printf() call for example, as long as you don't
call them
a million times in a loop.
So I always just use the method that leads to the most
readable code.
In many cases, especially when a lot of variables or
expressions are
involved, (s)printf() wins. Not for performance, but for
readability.
But as said - personal preference. YMMV.

Trying to save a document with a new file name

I have a IMacOSX Lion
I am very new to apple products
How do I save an existing document with a new file name thereby having two documents the old one and the new one with changes? Once a document has been saved once opening File no longer offers the save or Save as choice. Clicking on Save a version does not work either. Please help!

What application are you using?
Most Apple apps have adopted a new file saving scheme for what you describe. In Pages, for instance, you go to the File menu and select Duplicate. You end up with two documents, one labeled xxx copy (if the original was xxx). Now you can save xxx copy by using Save from the File menu, and change the name to whatever you want.
Hope this helps you. Best of luck.
