Probably a simple question about using a flash header for navigation

What would be the best way to go about loading this flash
navigation?
http://www.marcos-ac.com/wip/
Basically my issue is that I don't want the animation to run
through each time. On the homepage, I want it to run through it's
whole animation, but after that, I just want everything to be up
there... not flying in and fading in on each of the pages in the
site.
My ideas:
1. Some sort of actionscript command that says "if you are on
a page named index.htm then play the entire movie, otherwise, goto
and play frame 100 (the last frame).
2. Use a shell movie and do a loadMovie that they jumps to a
frame. Insert the shell movie on the subpages in the site. I tried
this an it didn't work. And I've read that it's unreliable because
the label may not exist yet when the movie is called or something.
Must be cached.
3. Build 2 movies... one with all the intro animation frames
chopped off. I tried this and didn't like it as the movie is
already pretty huge and to load two movies that are large is
annoying to users. This is the method I am currently using.
Thanks for the help!

The quick and easy way - not necessarily the most elegant way
- to solve the problem is to use html frames. Put the nav in a
header frame and have contents display in a second frame
underneath. Will require you add a target="contentframe' (or
whatever you name the content frame) parameter into each link in
the nav flash, but other than that you won't need to make major
changes.
The nav plays once and just sits there until they reload the
entire page the next time they visit. No actionscript, tests,
preloading, etc required.

Question about using ZFS root pool for whole disk?

I played around with the newest version of Solaris 10/08 over my vacation by loading it onto a V210 with dual 72GB drives. I used the ZFS root partition configuration and all seem to go well.
After I was done, I wondered if using the whole disk for the zpool was a good idea or not. I did some looking around but I didn't see anything that suggested that was good or bad.
I already know about some the flash archive issues and will be playing with those shortly, but I am curious how others are setting up their root ZFS pools.
Would it be smarter to setup say a 9gb partition on both drives so that the root ZFS is created on that to make the zpool and then mirror it to the other drive and then create another ZFS pool from the remaining disk?

Just a word of caution when using ZFS as your boot disk. There are tons of bugs in ZFS boot that can make the system un-bootable and un-recoverable.Can you expand upon that statement with supporting evidence (BugIDs and such)? I have a number of local zones (sparse and full) on three Sol10u6 SPARC machines and they've been booting fine. I am having problems LiveUpgrading (lucreate) that I'm scratching my head to resolve. But I haven't had any ZFS boot/root corruption.

Keychain - simple question about use

I would like keychain to ask me for the "login" keychain password when I navigate to a page requiring user id and password in Safari. After proving the "login" password, I would like keychain access to insert the appropriate user id and password. How do I accomplish this?

Maybe I've got the wrong understanding. It was my impression that Keychain and Autofill were two distinct things. I have been using autofill all along and when I go to a website, put in my id and password and hit send or continue or whatever, a window comes down from the top of the safari window and asks me if autofill should remember the password. The next time I visit the site, the info appears in the right places.
What I want is for me to go to the site and for a window to pop up and ask me for my keychain password BEFORE putting the site's user id and password in. A friend of mine has this setup on his computer but doesn't know/remember how it got that way so he is no help.
I hope this clarifies my question.
Thank you all for your help.

Simple question about using passing parameters in a procedure

I have a below stored procedure (part of a package) that I need to modify by removing hard coded declaration of "cutoffdays" and change it into a parameter passed from procedure. I am not sure how to do declare and pass values for delete from a table.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE counttimes
IS
   CutOffDays   NUMBER := 14;
BEGIN
DELETE FROM   timetable
         WHERE   timestamp_val < SYSDATE - CutOffDays;
   COMMIT;
END counttimes;

Hints
<li>never commit at the end of a procedure, if you didn't commit at the beginning. Do the transaction handling at a higher level.</li>
<li>Name the procedure so that it is clear what it does. If records are deleted, then the procedure name should reflect that.</li>
<li>Work with full days, i.e. use trunc(sysdate) instead of sysdate. </li>
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE removeTimes (CutOffDays in integer)
IS
BEGIN
       DELETE FROM   timetable
       WHERE   timestamp_val < trunc(SYSDATE) - CutOffDays;
END counttimes;Edited by: Sven W. on Feb 14, 2011 4:17 PM

Simple Question About Using "Group by" Inside the Oracle XE Query Builder

Hi,
I am a new user of Oracle 10g XE and I have built and populated some tables. I am trying to create a view (make a query) via using the Query Builder. I have chosen two attributes, say course_section_ID and trainer_ID in the same table. I choose the "COUNT" function for course_section_no and I check the box for "Group By" with trainer_ID. (I would like to count the number course sections each trainer is teaching). Then I "run" the query and the same error message appears:
fail to parse SQL query:
ORA-00904: "COURSE_SECTION"."TRAINER_ID": invalid identifier
Both attribute names should be valid (as shown above).
If I only choose course_section_ID and do a COUNT on it, it gives the same error message on course_section_no.
I did try to do the same thing with the demo HR database. There were no problems with counting a field nor with grouping on a field with HR.
PLEASE HELP!
Thanks.

I have got it. When all the attribute names are in the uppercase, then I can do aggregate functions and "group by" with the GUI.

Question about using a PHP include for the head info...

Hi,
I'm currently using PHP includes for my site header and footer info.
All my js/css files and meta declarations are in the head portion, which is in the header include.
How would I go about giving each page its own individual TITLE if the modifiable content of my pages is inside the body only? Since we can't specify title inside the body, am I stuck with the same page title for each page on the website?

Is it true that you header include file has the </head> and <body> tags embedded? It would seem a lot neater - and safer - to use two include files, one for the header and one for the body. That way, the <title> is not in either of them and you can do with it what you will.

Simple questions about the Live! Ultra for Notebooks webcam

Hi there,
I don't have a notebook, but I have an LCD display and I'm thinking of getting a webcam. Does anyone know if the Live! Ultra for Notebooks can be clipped on something as thick as 3cm?
Also, does it have an in-built microphone, or is that all in the headset?
Thanks in advance.
Charlie

Charlie,
The clip of the webcam can be stretch to approximately about .5cm only. Also, the microphone is not inbuilt into the webcam. It's on another seperate headset.

Question about Using PAPI Web Service in PowerBuilder 9

Hi, all.
I Have a simple question about using papiws in power builder 9.
In pb9, I created a new Web Service Proxy Wizard and I input a url for papiws(ex. http://seraphpernote:7001/papiws/PapiWebService) and click next.
But I couldn't get any Service List.
In Eclipse, I used this url for using papiws well.
Does anybody know about this case??
help me plz.

IIRC you must activate PAPI-WS for the engine. In Studio you do it by right-clicking on the project, then "engine preferences". In enterprise/standalone you must activate PAPI-WS in the Admin Center.

Simple question about mount and delay script

Hello, I have a simple question about mounting volumes on start up.
My computer wakes up auto - and then auto there are serveral applescript tasks (mount and start up programs)
I use this script (daily) for serveral connections with external volumes I always need the connect to. ( In the script I use this code 3 times for other locations) I do this on start up.
set Uname to "XXX"
set Pword to "XXX"
set someVolume to "afp://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/XXX/XXX
mount volume someVolume as user name Uname with password Pword
(same code for 2 other locations)
When i do this on start up sometimes the script says there is no connection possible. I guess it's because on start up the connection isn't there. And 1 minute later when computer is total ready the connection is ok. When I run the script then It works. Just sometimes ( In the morning) 'It' want to connect but the script stops. When i do it manually(I run the script again) it works just fine.
Is it possible that I need a delay? Can someone explain this?
How would I make a delay handler for this script? Is that the best solution?
Thanks in advance. This is something small i'm wondering about.
Colin

BTW, If you saved the script as an application +(and not as an application bundle)+ you could drop the script on to *Drop Script Backgrounder* (freeware).
Then the script would run in the background, so, you wouldn't see it running in the Finder.

Probably incredibly simple question, so sorry. I have just changed e-mail after many many years and I want to e-mail everyone in my mac mail client with the new e-mail address at the same time.

Probably incredibly simple question, so sorry. I have just changed e-mail after many many years and I want to e-mail everyone in my mac mail client with the new e-mail address at the same time.

If you are using Address Book, open it, create a new Group, select all you contacts by click the top one while holding down the shift key and then select the last one. Drag the contacts to the group, then send an e-mail to the group.

A simple question about combo box

Dear All,
Just got a simple question about combo box: I have one of these selectors with labels based on filtered rows from a table.
Is it possible to have one more label that would select all options?
Like:
Product A
Product B
Product C
All Product
Many thanks for your help!
Gilles

Hi Gilles,
The purpose of ComboBox itself to select single option out of many.
For your purpose, you may have to use "List Builder" which can accomodate 1 or more to select.
Please revert for more clarification if you need.
With best wishes
BaaRaa.

A simple question about performance!

Hi! I have a simple question about performance. Suppouse that you have a servlet or a class with DB access, and you need to use a value several times in that page. What is best, to assign the value from say, a resultset or a request.getParameter() to a variable or to call the resultset or the request every time you need to retrieve that value? Which option uses less memory, which is faster, etc.?
Hoping the best fou u
Raul

If you need more values from a db, the best is to open some connections (connection pool) and use the for accessing the db.
To get the data only once, open the connection, get the data, store the data whereever you want: variable (class), hidden control (if you want to send from one page to another by request) and close the connection as quicky as possible.
The advantage of the first method is that the most time consuming activity (connections opening) is done only once.

Question about using Runtime.getRuntime();

hi all
i have a question about using Runtime.getRuntime(). if i use this to get a runtime reference to run an external program, is it considered as starting a new thread inside the thread that starts it?
is it safe to do it in the Session EJB? if not, what can you recommand to do it? thanks

hi all
i have a question about using Runtime.getRuntime().
if i use this to get a runtime reference to run an
external program, is it considered as starting a new
thread inside the thread that starts it? No. Starting a process, starts a process. Threads have nothing to do with it.
is it safe to do it in the Session EJB? if not, what
can you recommand to do it? thanksSo what? Run another process? If you want to run another process in java then your choices are to use Runtime.exec() or use JNI. And using JNI will probably end up doing exactly the same thing as Runtime.exec().
"Safe" is harder. Typically to correctly use Runtime.exec() you must use threads. And as noted threads ideally should not be used. You can use them but if you do you had better understand why they didn't want you using them in the first place. You had also better be sure that you really want to wait for it to complete.
Other than that Runtime.exec() is safe because it can't crash the VM like other interfaces can (like JNI.)

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher #1 iPad to its AppleTV without effecting/projecting onto the adjacent teachers #2 classroom AppleTV?

Not as such.
Give the AppleTV units unique names and also enable Airplay password in settings with unique passwords for each teacher.

Hi, I have quick question about use of USEBEAN tag in SP2. When I specify a scope of SESSION for the java bean, it does not keep the values that I set for variable in the bean persistent.Thanks,Sonny

Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.
