Very Basic, but this puzzles me, Button's parameters...

Hi, I 'm new to Flash, I have some understanding of it such as if I make a button, I go to the parameters part and then I can add my action code to my button to make it a link.
I was following this guide and I get confused at step 2! http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art52102.asp
Here is my .swf http://play2improve.kevreillyland.com/logo.swf I want the user to be able to click the "Twitter" button and the text and so on and it will change the browser page to Twitter.com/Play2Improve and so on (also for the links below those icons). However when I click my Twitter button to edit the parameters this comes up:
http://play2improve.kevreillyland.com/Untitled.png
It doesn't let me edit the parameters part to add the bits I need. I know I'm not using a standard Flash "button" but I selected the "convert to symbol" option and chose "button" on each graphic. Is this is what is stopping me, and if so, can I get around it? Thank you for your help!
Here is my .fla if it's useful! http://play2improve.kevreillyland.com/logo.fla Thanks!

1. On stage, select twitter button. Go to 'properties' tab and enter "twitter_btn" in instance name text field
2. Insert new layer in timeline.
3. Press 'F9' or open 'actions' window
4. Copy the following code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
// Twitter Button click event
twitter_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleTwitterButtonClick);
function handleTwitterButtonClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://twitter.com/Play2Improve"), "_self");
In navigateToURL, second parameter can be "_self" (open url in same browser window) and "_blank" (open url in new browser window)
You do same stuff for all other buttons and links.

Having trouble figuring out how to save the original photo after I've cropped it - i.e. I want to create a headshot of my husband from a photo of the two of us, but I also want to keep the original. Seems very basic, but can't seem to figure it out. Any h

Having trouble figuring out how to save the original photo after I've cropped it - i.e. I want to create a headshot of my husband from a photo of the two of us, but I also want to keep the original. Seems very basic, but can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be great!

Use File >> Save As
Choose a different file name so as not to overwrite the original and don't save any changes when closing the original.

Question about stereo vs. mono tracks. (Very basic, but appreciate help)

I’m still a little confused about Stereo Vs. Mono tracks when recording in Logic. (This might sound stupid, but I’m still getting confused by this stuff.)
When first recording a track, do you guys usually do it in mono or stereo?
Secondly, I’m still confused about the benefits or stereo tracks. Why not just record mono and then pan a track left or right when mixing? I’m just not getting the concept of stereo recording. I know these are very basic questions, but I’ve read numerous books and I’m still a little in the dark on this. Thanks for the help!

Most of the things I record are done on mono tracks. Each piece of a kit goes to its own channel, then I pan things accordingly later (Overhead L & R, etc.).
You only need to record in stereo if you actually have a source that is stereo, i.e. a keyboard with stereo fx and L&R outputs, but even then I usually just set up two mono tracks, one for L and one for R. I would do a similar thing if I was using a stereo pair to mic something.
You can always make a mono track stereo later as well using a variety of plug-ins.

A very basic but trick problem--can u handel it

hi guys
i have a very small but tricky problem
u see i want to get the value of a mathamatical expression (stored in a variable -varchar2) and wants to get the mathamatical value of the expression
eg
declare
a varchar2;
begin
a:='12*12';
etc....
end ;
so here i want to get 144 as the output ..
lets see how u handel it
thanx
dg

you can change the value assigned to variable S1 to whatever operation you need to perform.
DECLARE
     V_HANDLE     INTEGER;
     STMT          VARCHAR2(100);
     S1               VARCHAR2(50) := '12/2';
     RES               INTEGER;
BEGIN
     V_HANDLE := DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR;
     STMT := 'SELECT '||S1||' FROM DUAL';
     DBMS_SQL.PARSE(V_HANDLE, STMT, DBMS_SQL.NATIVE);
     DBMS_SQL.DEFINE_COLUMN(V_HANDLE, 1, 1);
     RES     := DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE(V_HANDLE);
     LOOP
          EXIT WHEN DBMS_SQL.FETCH_ROWS(V_HANDLE) = 0;
          DBMS_SQL.COLUMN_VALUE(V_HANDLE, 1, RES);
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('RES = '||RES);
     END LOOP;
     DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR (V_HANDLE);
END;

Can someone tell me the problem with this (very basic) code

I know it's very basic but here goes
public class MilesAndFurlongs
// the constructor
public MilesAndFurlongs (int Furlongs, int Miles)
amountFurlongs = Furlongs;
amountMiles = Miles;
// method to add one to furlong
public void increment()
amount = (amount + 1);
// method to print out total number of furlongs and miles
public void displayLength()
system.out.println("Furlongs: " + amountFurlongs);
system.out.println("Miles: " + amountMiles);
bluej says theres an illegal start of expression in displaylength()
i know its going to be something stupid :D

this is all of it updated...
public class MilesAndFurlongs
// the constructor
public MilesAndFurlongs (int Furlongs, int Miles)
amountFurlongs = Furlongs;
amountMiles = Miles;
// method to add one to furlong
public void increment()
amount = (amount + 1);
// method to print out total number of furlongs and miles
public void displayLength()
system.out.println("Furlongs: " + amountFurlongs);
system.out.println("Miles: " + amountMiles);

Very Basic actionscript question

Hi,
This is very basic but for some reason cant get it to work.
Basically I have a movie that plays and at the end I have a button that comes on screen but once the button stops I want the user to press the button then it goes to the url.
I have
stop() {
on (release) {
getURL("http://google.co.uk","_self","blank");
but this doesnt work.
Thankyou for any help.

I have now sorted it, I had my movie on actionscript 3 and needed to put the url code onto the actual button.

Very Basic Question c:out

I can't seem to get a very simple "HelloWorld.jsp" file to work in Tomcat. I have the file helloworld.jsp with the following:
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
<html>
<head>
     <title>helloworld.jsp</title>
</head>
<body>
     <c:set var="hello" value="Hello World!" />
     <c:out value='${hello}' />
</body>
</html>But when I view the page I see the output:
${hello}
I thought this was very basic, but it doesn't work. I know that tomcat is running well, but the problem seems occur when I use a tag library. Otherwise the server and jsp works well. Thanks for any help.

Thanks to you both, however, I am well aware of my option to use out.println..., but what I was trying to achieve is using the JSTL, and that is where I am having problems. Also, switching the order of my arguments in the taglib declaration made no difference. Anybody else have an idea on how to get the JSTL working?

This may seem basic, but I just discovered that I do not have a share button (the thing with the little arrow popping out) to the left of my address bar on my Mac. I do have one on my IPad and really like it. Why don't I have this on my Mac?

This may seem basic, but I just discovered that I do not have a share button (the one with the little arrow jumping out) to the left of my address bar on Safari for my Mac. I do have one on my IPad and use it often. Can anyone tell me why my Mac is missing this icon and how to get it? Thanks.

Going from Lion to Mountain Lion is considered an upgrade (because it is not free), not an update.
So yes, given that you have Lion, you are up to date. But if you can, you might consider going to Mountain Lion for a fee.
Here's what you need to do the upgrade:

I am very new to Macs and iPhoto so this may be an idiot's question, but I have just created my first photo book and want to buy it, but the "buy book" button is not highlighted and when I click it nothing happens. Is there some step I am missing? Thanks!

I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
Have a look at Edgar's graphical enhanced manuals, the explain very detailed how things work and why. You can buy them as iBooks from the iBook store or directly from the page:

If I upgrade to Mountain Lion on the computer that will install it, will my WIFI still work on the computer that cannot be upgraded? I know this is a very basic question

If I upgrade to Mountain Lion on the computer that will install it, will my WIFI still work on the computer that cannot be upgraded? I know this is a very basic question. Trying to hold out as long as I can, but purchasing an iPhone for Christmas and new iMac next year when warrently expires.

Thank U very much for the quick reply, I wanted to upgrade this weekend, but still on the fence. I can live with the software that is not compatible, they are on another compuetr, just didn't want the obvious stuff to stop working.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

Possibly a very basic question but I have set up a spread sheet in Numbers and have viewed help videos but I can't get it to give me sums for the columns I highlight. Keeps coming up with the figure zero. I have version 09 2.3(554). Can anyone help

Possibly a very basic question but I am going nowhere without a solution. I have set up a spreadsheet in Numbers but it won't give me sums for chosen columns. I have viewed the run through videos and used the formula but nothing happens apart from giving a figure of zero or a red arrow. The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total as I understand from the video that you can drag whatever total is here onto the relevent position on your spreadsheet. I have Numbers 09 version 2.3 (554). Can anyone advise. Thanks.

Hi Sohojools,
To sum a column, use a formula such as this one in Cell A6
Type this in a cell below your data:
=SUM(A2:A4) or whatever range of cells you want to sum. The easy way is to type:
=SUM(
and then drag or shift-click to select the range of cells. Close the formula with a final bracket ")".
The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total
To see the sum (and other simple statistics) in the bottom left, select a range of cells. That tells Numbers which cells you are refering to.
The videos are good, but the Numbers'09 User guide, and the Formulas and Functions User Guide are better. Download them from the Help Menu in Numbers.
Regards,
Ian.

I got my iPhone 5 s almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

I got my iPhone 5 almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

First steps in troubleshooting:
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

The home button has stopped working on my iphone 5c. Did the same a few months ago and recovered 24hrs later. Can anyone explain this problem. Phone still in warranty. Had steam issue recently but this was after last home button episode.

Have an iphone 5c 8g. The home button has stopped working. Did the same a few months ago and recovered 24hrs later. Can anyone explain this problem. Phone still in warranty. Had steam issue recently but this was after last home button episode and no evidence of damage.

If you are playing in hockey arenas a lot or if you are bringing it into bathroom same time as shower it may not seem like much but overtime the steam can acquire and build up in the phones usb dock flex cable swell as the home button flex cable. Bring again into apple store and should be covered under warranty again. could also be a delay in a 8gb 5c software may just be very lag.

Very Basic, but this puzzles me, Button's parameters...
