the other pages that are not linked correctly - they all point to
f-source. You need to make sure you edit your menu's links for
every single page. Like Darrel said, make one menu and do a
server-side include to ensure the menu is the same on all pages. If
server-side includes aren't available to you, do a Library include.
Either way is a much better alternative than editing the same menu
over and over again on different pages.
Hope that helps!John
Burrito.. I really, really appreciate your attempt to assist,
but you are not reading what I am writing. Perhaps I'm not
explaining it properly but I do not know how I can explain it any
clearer. Please, please, please..... read this. PAY NO ATTENTION TO
THE OTHER PAGES other then the link below! It only confuses the
issue.
Again...... please just follow these steps & you WILL see
that my code on the link provided below is changing after using the
menu.
Here is the best & clearest way I can demonstrate my
point. Forget about all other pages other then the link below for
now.
Go to the link I am providing below. View Source
BEFORE you use the menu. All links are directed as they
should be.
Now... use the menu a time or two until you are magically
directed to f-source..
At this point use the back button to get back to the link below.
NOW view the source. It is the very same page you just looked at
yet all links have now magically been changed & redirected to
f-source.com.
This is gonna ruin my Finals :(

Audigy 2 ZS Platinum, very odd probl

Hi All,?I'm having a strange problem. The sound is not working properly from my rear two speakers. I'm running a 5. Logitech speaker system, and while in the Creative speaker calibration application, it will properly identify and play sound from each individual speaker. However, in the EAX/THX Console as well as in surround sound gaming, instead of playing the sound of a person walking behind you, it will play the sound as if you are using a non-EAX capable Sound Card, and are using CMSS/CMSS2 to mimic the steps behind you, if that's making any sense. In other words, it will simply extend the front right/left speakers to the back instead of actually playing the seperate, rear channel. I've synced/unsynced Creative w/ Windows control panel, completely uninstalled, updated, nothing I can do will work. Does anyone have any ideas?

A very bad error in ibooks author widget...

hello,
i have delivered my ibooks on ibooks store: Clil 2.0 For Maths. I added multiple choice questions using the Widget inspector, but i noted that the sentence "domanda 1 di 6" was written in italian. So i asked at this support in order to solve the problem and you said to me that if i changed the language of my OS into english it would certainly be solved. So i did and everything went well.
Now after delivering to the ibooks store i tried to read it on my iPad with an italian version of IOS and the sentence of multiple choice question is in italian. Athe the end of the excercise it says how many question are worng or right in ITALIAN!!!
This is a very big proble for me since it is a CLIL book so everything MUST be written in English.
Can you solve this awful mistake?
thank you
Alessandro Biondi

I see your confusion.
> So i asked at this support in order to solve the problem
Support told you, not anyone here. Support isn't here...these forums are user to user.
If you have something to say to Support, you should contact them directly, same as you did originally.
Good luck in any case.

Audigy 2 ZS: Keeping line input from playing on speak

I recently installed an Audigy 2 ZS in a Win2k machine. In the mixer, I've selected "Analog mix" for recording. So "What-U-Hear" should be off, right? And I have disabled "Monitor during recording." So, while recording, I don't hear what is coming in the line input. But if I turn recording off, suddenly what's coming into Line-In blasts out the speakers. Is there a way to permanently disable passing Line-Input to the speakers when I'm not recording or even running a recording program?
Bob

The mixer device list for the Audigy 2 ZS shows a separate Line-in for record and play. So it appears that the ability to keep Line-In from playing on speakers is there. However, unfortunately the Creative Mixer implements this as a record option and an option to "Do not monitor while recording." With this option checked, Line-In isn't passed through to the speakers but only during recording. At other times you'll hear what is coming into the Line-in. By comparison, the Audigy 2 LS has an option to "Do not monitor," which blocks Line-in pass-through under all conditions (unless an api enables it). The Line-In pass-through was a particular problem for me for a C++ program I've written. So I solved the problem by selecting "Do not monitor while recording," muting the global volume, and un-muting the global volume with a call to the mixer functions when I turn on recording from within my program. This prevents pass-through even when my program isn't running, which was important for my particular application. Unfortunately, this isn't a viable option for someone using an off-the-shelf recorder-player. Other mixers might implement this differently.

Sorry to bump this but...
I happen to have a very similar proble to Katman's
W2k machine, recording from the line input, i got
either no sound to record (if line input is not
checked in the mixer - both windows' or creative's)
or i got sound to record AND this sound also
goes to the line out (when i check the line input
in the mixer), which defies my purposes.
Line in was always selected as input in the recording
panel.
I tried to uncheck the "record without monitoring"
option but it does absolutely nothing to me.
I have updated the drivers just a few weeks ago.
Hints?

MS 6728 - 865PE Neo2 LS - UDMA to PIO mode

Hello,
I have very similar probles as allready discussed - that XP automatically swich from UDMA to PIO mode (described on Microsoft webpages - error ID 9; The device, \Device\Ide\IdePort0, did not respond within the timeout period.). But nobody had problem with this chipset... I checked a lot of things: removing IDE drivers from the sytem - reboot. I did replace 80-pin cable for new one. Checked my HDD with utility from the manufacturer.
I have latest Intel chipset drivers 5.0.2.1002 from your website, latest BIOS 1.5
Have you any more ideas?

Very slow connection speed, after phone line probl...

My catalogue of problems starts about a month ago. The phone line developed heavy interference and my Broadband connection kept dropping. This was diagnosed as being a fault with my HH 1.5. BT duly sent me a replacement HH3 which arrived about 3 days later. I installed the new hub, changed all the wiring and the filters for the new kit that came with the hub only to discover that the interference on the phone line was now even worse. It was so bad that at times you could not even hear what was being said on the other end of the phone, so an engineer visit was arranged.
A week later a BT engineer came and checked the line, sure enough there was a second problem and all the wiring from my house to the nearest telephone pole had to be replaced.
These problems had had a catastrophic effect on my connection speed and profile (I was getting about 500 kbps both up and down stream), so I dutifully reset the hub after the engineer had finished and waited for the line to stabilise.
14 days later and the upload speed had doubled, but the download speed is still unchanged at 570 kbps, about half the current upload speed. The line was a bit temperamental for the first few days but I have been able to maintain a solid connection for the last 4 days, current stats are as follows:

Very Urgent - Transient attribute setting and getting problems

Hi,
I am using a DFF to set date but since DFF can store only varchar data and I need date datatype for the same,
I have create a EO based on per_all_people_f table of HRMS.
Then I created a VO based on this EO and added a column to_date(substr(attribute11,1,10), 'RRRR/MM/DD') to get a date column so that I can display date calendar on my OAF page.
Then I created a page based on this VO and creaed a table region and selected this new column instead of attribute11 column.
A date field is diaplayed on the page but when I use calendar to set date for this field and try to get the value in processFormRequest, I get null instead of actual date.
Its really very urgent. I wadted lot of my time on this but could not find any solution.
Please help...

Hi,
Thanks for the reply and sorry I could not check your reply due to some personal proble.
Anyway, I have used Standard Date value set for attribute11 field but since datatype of the attribute field is 'VARCHAR2', in EO and hence in VO, it is taking datatype as VARCHAR2.
Thanks

Very Disappointed with Lenovo Products & Support

After spending times during the holidays researching the new laptop, I found out that T400 would be really powerful and slick and I was excited placing an order and could not wait to receive it. Today, I received the product. It was delivered couple days earlier than the dellivery date. So far perfect!
After having dinner, I jumped in the work - opened up the package and put the battery and plug the power on. Here is what I've been waiting for. Hit the power on!
The system ran very quietly - greatly, then the system is setting up the VIsta Business OS.
Than PING!!! 'Install Windows - can not complete installation. Restart the installation' error message displayed!
Can't be! Next thing I know I spent 0/5 hours recyclying the power and the error message was still in the loop. Got no where!
I called support for help. The first guy asked me to hit F11 to go to recovery OS. Tried that - the system had problem recovering the OS. It gave me an error about Windows recovery proble. The support guy told me that I need to go online to register my product, so my warranty is activated and then call back the Lenovo support to ask for System Recovery discs. DId that and called back.
The second support guy was on the call and tried to give me some help. Didn't go anywhere. He said he'd transfer me to talk to T400 support people. Sound good!
I was on the phone for 1/2 hrs with the third guy trying to ask me to hit all those F8, F11 key for system recovery. At this point, my head was all of steam and ran out of patience. I asked him if he knows what he's talking about. He counter-argued with me and blamed on me for not following the process. He finally came back to me to go to Lenovo website to find instruction how to create my own system recovery discs. I followed his direction and go the the website he recommended. After reading the instruction, the assumption is that you must be in Lenovo thinkpad and in Windows Vista to create the recovery disc. This is typical to all Vista OS. Struck out for the third time for the lousy support.
I decided to call back for the last time. Talked to the fourth support guy. He read the case and asked me to go online and register and call back to ask for the System recovery discs. That's it for me. I told him that I had enough of the BS. I've decided not to tolerate this scrappy support and pack this brand new T400 which I now believe it was the worst laptop I've ever bought. I could buy a no brand name laptop and it worked even better and I don't have to talk to these kinda support people.
What a nightmare! No more Lenovo! I'm sharing a real life experience with highly overated brand name Lenovo! It's off my list for now.

OK. Thing just got worse and worse which I'm now convinced that Lenovo organization is far below inferior.
In the last couple days, I've placed multiple calls to the RMA dept. and dealt with 4 different analysts trying to have the MFG defected T400 RMAed back to Lenovo with full refunds. These analysts advised me that I had to pay 15% restocking fee or I had to order the new laptop for exchange. I told that I do not feel obligated to pay for the restocking fee since this is a MFG defected brand new laptop; otherwise, this would be a good but scammy business model that Lenovo is running. These guys stuck with their policy, so I asked to speak with the supervisor/manager on duty to have this matter resolved. I've already requested three times couple days ago and have not heard back from them.
I kept calling them back. The last analyst I spoke to with the name Akshatha Rxxxxxxx (x. 17xxx) based in India tried to asked me with same old questions from the previous analysts (one of them is Ahmed Sxxxx - x17xxx) which I declined to go through the same scripted interview. I told this lady that I was just simply wanting to speak with the supervivor or manager on duty to have the matter resolved ASAP. She told me that I had to answer her questions, otherwise, she will not help me with my request. I then just told her to end the call and file a formal complaint with Lenovo. She said you do so. So that is what I have to go through.
I can't imagine Lenovo's customer service stands at this inferior level. Rightnow, I'm getting a brand new laptop that doesn't work and have to deal with these kinds of service flows. Where does Lenovo stand at the customer's voice?
I'll definitely file a formal complaint and raise this matter publicly. I'll keep you posted...
