Quick help with IF statment

I am trying to do an IF-OR statement and I feel like I am clueless. Can someone let me know what the problem is?
if (getName.equals("Jim")) || (getName.equals("Robert")) {
name = "Smith";
else{
name = "Jones";
Thanks.

Match the parentheses:
if ((getName.equals("Jim")) || (getName.equals("Robert"))) {
name = "Smith";
else{
name = "Jones";
That should do it.

Quick help with css display in IE7

Hi, I haven't been on this forum in ages - I have a slight display glitch would love some help with:

It looks great in the latest and greatest browser (IMHO!): - firefox 3.5.6

Need some quick help with redoing a website

Hi, I did my website done in iWeb in 2008, published it, and have it hosted by GoDaddy. I want to take it offline for now and design a new 'under construction' site, but there is a chance that I might want to still go back to the original version.
I see the current 'Domain' in Home Folder>Library>Application Support>iWeb.
Can I just redo my site (still working in pre-2008 iWeb), publish it, and if I need to, use the old 'Domain' to revert to my current website?
If yes, how do I do that....and, if 'no', what should I do?
Thanks!

Hi and thanks. To reply....
I published the website in iWeb and it is on my MobleMe. It was done in iWeb v 1.1.2, and I have not upgraded iLife on the computer that I designed the website on, as I feared losing some/all of it in an upgrade.
I do, however, pay GoDaddy for my corporate URL AND hosting....which I suspect is the forwarding and not 'hosting' per se....but on my Hosting account on GoDaddy it does say 'Shared Hosting'.
I do not want to 'overwrite' my current site just yet, as I am uncertain about the next one's content or the time to do it the way I envision it. What I want to do is SAVE my current site in case I want it back and, in the meantime, put up a page that says Under Construction. Can you help with that?
Much appreciated

Quick help with dual booting

I have hopped around on different distros and I found that Archlinux would be the best solution for me. However, I need help with dual booting Archlinux and Vista as I will need Vista around for one program and a game that do not work with any Linux distro that I have tried. I have not done a text based install before, I have only used newbie distros but I want to move on to Archlinux.
I will only need one partition for Vista and one for Arch. I believe I can achieve the goal of dual booting them by shrinking the vista partition, and then installing Arch in the remaining space and use GRUB to boot the necessary partitions when my laptop is powered on. This works with Ubuntu, so I assume it shall be the same basic concept with Arch. I can follow the instructions on installing, and the installation is easier than I had expected it to be. I have one question, how would I go about using the above technique that I mentioned during the install? I would like to know how to do it correctly, I cannot risk messing up Vista. I'm fifteen and my dad would be very frustrated if I did mess up Vista. I would appreciate some specific instructions, because I really like Arch from what I have read. I also look forward to being an active member in the community as well if all goes well.

Welcome!
Another young one I see! I'm currently 17, however I started using linux when I was 13 (8th grade year).
You can resize the vista partition by using gparted. You can download the gparted livecd from there website (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php). I do not know specific directions, but it is pretty obvious how to resize, and if you need help you can probably google something like "resize partition gparted". I WARN YOU that you do risk data loss resizing the partition. I don't believe the risk is high, but it still there, so backup any important data that you may have in case something goes wrong!!
Do you have your own computer that you can experiment on? That might be a safe option than using your dads. I am been fortunate to have hand-me-down systems, but when I was young I made my dad angry quite a few times "experimenting!"
If your dad's system has enough juice, you may want to consider install arch in a virtual machine to get idea of however thing works. Following the Beginners Guide on the wiki will be you best bet for a successful and well configured machine (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners_Guide). If you really want to play it safe you can even go as far as install windows in a virtual machine, resizing the partition, and installing arch in the same virtual machine.
I hate to say this, but if you absolutely can not mess up vista, I would advice against installing any other OS and messing with the partition scheme. As whenever you mess with the partitions you run a risk of messing up Vista (or any other os for that matter). If you don't already have your own computer which you can tinker with, it might not be a bad idea to look at getting one. They are becoming cheap, you can build one for about $300-$400USD, or buy one for probably around $400.
Hope this helps a bit...

Quick help with flash and html

Hi folks,
just a quick query that i'm sure someone out there will know
the answer to (or at least i'm hoping someone will)
I've been working on a new site (first attempt so be gentle
with any criticism please!!)
I used fireworks8 to create a navmenu and it works a treat,
however i also have flash on some of the pages, and the fireworks
submenus don't seem to like showing up over the flash!
see
http://www.gammies.co.uk/construction.asp
for what i mean. the nav links to construction, groundcare and
recreational don't show becuase of the flash. I was trying to see
if there was some option to send the flash to the back of the page
as such so that the navmenu was on top but couldn't get it, and i'm
no sure what i'd have to do code wise to change it (if it's a code
issue). By the way it does it in both firefox and IE
All help greatly appreciated..
Thanks
Chris

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so
to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and
Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There
is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but
if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can
use the Flash
wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this
properly!).

I'm new to java and I need some quick help with NetBeans.

Hi. To whomever can help here's the problem. I've been trying to install netbeans ide 5.0 on my computer for a while now and i can't seem to find out what is wrong. I'm in a java programming course and i need the J2SE Developement Kit 5.0 Update 7 and NetBeans IDE 5.0 Installer on my comp. Whenever i go to install it, it can't automatically create a directory and has erroe null in place of it. Whenever i made a new directory for it a page would come up telling me all of the errors during the installation which are null. Since i have administrator privelages and plenty of free space on my hardrive.

Hi,
I want to suggest you that
1.please check if any prerequisite is require before installing the NetBeans IDE,i hope there is nothing like that except proper jdk on your machine.
2.if you already having JDK on your machine check for the compatibility of that jdk version with the required NetBeans IDE version.
3.follow the steps provided to install the NetBeans IDE 5.0 for that refer the below link
http://www.netbeans.org/community/releases/50/install.html
hope you will get rid of the problem .....

Quick Help With School Work

I am current student that just got into a web design class, I was sent home with some homework seeing what we know and I have a question that I am stumped on .Was wondering if anyone could help me with this question:
Write an advanced CSS selector that specifically targets the input type or name for the following HTML:
<input type="text" name="address1" value=""/>
Thank you very much from web student and indvidual wanting to learn from their peers

Hi
As john said it may not be what is required, but as the css attribute selector is css2.1, (and further expanded in css3) I would not expect this to be included in a curriculum at this time.
CSS2.1 is only supported by the newer browsers and not IE versions < 7.
But if you wish to be certain you could also include this in your answer see - http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_attribute_selectors.asp. For full reference you could also point your tutor to - http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/.

Quick help with a new Safari user?

Hey guys,
Since Mountain Lion, Firefox was destroying my CPU and was sending the fans nuts! So Ive made the switch to Safari.
2 really quick questions. I have imported my bookmarks but I HATE the way bookmarks work in Safari, or at least the only way in which I have found so far. So instead of having to open up the horrible bookmarks window with the page previews ala iTunes cover art, can I somehow get a Firefox like drop down bookmark list in the current window I have?
Also I do not like having to tell Safari that i want to browse privately every time I use Safari. Can I set safari to never save my history?
Thanks

Ok I made myself a new folder called bookmarks that gives me drop down bookmarks like I wanted but can I get rid of the button that opens the bookmark window?
Still not solved history issue.

Need Quick Help with Unordered List in Table (text too small)

Hi,
I have a table with 2 unordered lists and the font size is smaller than what I need.
I'm using CSS and have checked all of my font sizes and I have all of what I consider my normal text set to 12.
When my client views the page on his browser, the unordered lists appears to be about a size 8. I checked on my cell phone and I see what he's talking about.
I set the <ul> and <li> to font size 12, but the problem still exists.
It's almost like the table is scaling the text down.
I worked all night trying to figure out what I've done wrong (newbie ) and I can't fix it and my client is waiting!
Here's the page: http://www.precisioncleaning.com/expert_witness_services.html
Please help!
Thanks,
Kathy

I tried adding a new CSS rule to the table font, but it didn't work.
I also edited the <tr> and <td> but still didn't work.
I think something higher up is messing the table up. I don't know anything about specificity or how to see who has the power to overwrite the table.
Do you?

Help with UPDATE statment

Hello,
i have a table like this:
create table test
(id number,
stat number,
id_num number);data in table:
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (1,112,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (1,123,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (2,134,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (2,111,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (3,112,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (4,111,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (4,12,'');
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (4,11,'');I want to update column id_num with sequence number under same ID.
Below is the table with correctly updated coloumn.
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (1,112,1);
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (1,123,2);
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (2,134,1);
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (2,111,2);

insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (4,111,1);
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (4,12,2);
insert into table test (id,stat,id_num) values (4,11,3);Can someone give me a hint how to pull this off?
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
what is the order of assigning the sequence within the same id?
You cannot rely on the order of row number as Oracle does not ensure that it is giving back the rows in the sequence in which they have been inserted.
I have assumed here that within the id the id_num is numbered ordered by stat:
MERGE INTO test a
     USING (SELECT id, stat
                 , ROW_NUMBER () OVER (PARTITION BY id ORDER BY stat) AS val
              FROM test) b
        ON (a.id = b.id AND a.stat = b.stat)
WHEN MATCHED
THEN
   UPDATE SET id_num = val;
SELECT *
FROM test
ORDER BY id, stat;
        ID       STAT     ID_NUM
         1        112          1
         1        123          2
         2        111          1
         2        134          2
         3        112          1
         4         11          1
         4         12          2
         4        111          3Regards.

Need some quick help with server proxy on PI 7.1 system

Hi,
I am implementing a server proxy on the PI 7.1 system to do some logging to a table. So, when I go the the proxy in sproxy and generate it, in the interface section on the properties tabs I only see a drop down that says point to point enabled. There is no implementing class to click into and thus not method to populate with the custom code. Some direction would be appreciated, I have been working 7.0 for a while, so the missing implementing class is new to me! I know the method name has changed from the execute_asycronous etc... Am I going to the wrong place now to find the implementing method?
Thanks,
Chris

Whoops! Brain cramp. accidentally set the interface to outbound and not inbound in the ESR lol. Sorry.

Need some quick help with jbutton

Hi,
My first post so please be gentle!
I currently have two buttons in my container. The first one when pressed calls another function that generates a set of coordinates (button = generate). I now have another button that wants to take those coordinates and draw them on-screen, but I'm having trouble doing this since I can't get the "generate" button function to pass the xycoords over to the "draw" button function. I'm more of a Fortran/Perl programmer and I'm a bit confused how to go about this. I tried making the variable (xycoords) a gloabl variable, but id rather not do this.
Any tips?
Cheers,
Adriano

Sure, show us the code. Otherwise we have to try to read you mind.
Here is the scenario you are in:
Event Driven Method (ActionPerformed/ButtonClicked/etc): you do not have arguments that you can control, so if you want to use something from within that method you have to have visibility to it (global definition with respect to the routine) and in the Java world that usually boils down to class variables or some type of public data class.
Now, it you want the coordinates of the click event, that is contained in the MouseEvent... getX and getY, so you can use these as arguments to other methods from within your MouseListener.

Your form doesn't match your script. Try to be consistent in your naming conventions. Also, PHP is cAsE sEnSiTiVe so you need to pay attention to that as well.
Change this in your form:
<select name="Main Category">
to this:
<select name="main_category">
And change this data variable in PHP:
$main_category = $_POST['main'];
to this:
$main_category = $_POST['main_category'];
It should work now.

Quick help with boot camp parition

ok well i had to uninstall the Boot Camp partition a few months ago due to some problems, now i want to put it back on BUT, when i click partition... after a little while this message pops up:
The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved.
Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again.
i did repartition this hard drive but i keep getting that message. if you could plz help me...anyone...

Since the time that you restored your disk to a single partition and now, Mac OS files have scattered across your hard drive making it impossible to repartition.
Some suggestions:
• Search these forums for suggestions given to all those who have posted this question before.
• Try a smaller partition, if your desired Windows use permits. It's possible that the scattering of your Mac OS files does not extend across the entire hard drive.
• Buy a program which will defragment your hard drive, and run it.
• Clone your hard drive (or make a Time Machine backup), then reformat and restore, as per the error message.
