Which language for a tutor website.

Hi Gurus,
Which language do you think would be more adequate for a website with video chat and a whiteboard.
In sum, a website for tutoring classes?

This falls into the category of
Content Management Frameworks, of which there are quite a few on the market to choose from, some of them free. For example, you should take a look at
Drupal and Joomla, both being very popular. It's a higher level approach that trying to build this yourself using C# and ASP.NET.
There are many more but the most popular (Open Source) that are written in .NET are
DotNetNuke and
Umbraco.
I don't think that a CMS platform is always the best choice for every website out there, if the goal is to build a website that does just the things you specified and you have enough time then sometimes it's better to build it from the ground up.
CMS platforms tend to be quite large in size and it takes time to learn the framework and the plugin architecture of the platform before you can actually build on it.
The language you use to build the website is insignificant you can achieve the same thing in either PHP, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Java, C# or any other language that has a web framework.
Without a web framework you will have to speak to things like protocols and sockets as well as manage threads and whatnot in short low level stuff that no one wants to do/touch.
Most of the frameworks in most languages are mature enough to support you so just go with the language you like, know or have the most experience and use it.
Obviously, every language and/or framework has some advantages and some disadvantages and knowing them is a benefit but that's where your experience as a developer comes into play, reading about it isn't enough (although you should) you need to develop on
each language with different frameworks, different platform to really understand so the best advice that I can give you is do some research (not too much or you will get confused), start somewhere and continue from there, don't look for the perfect language
even though C# is awesome. ;)
P.S. I'm moving it doesn't really belong to the C# forum.

Noob question: which language for audio unit?

Hi there, sorry if this has come up before but I'm just starting to write code on my Mac and would like eventually to write an audio unit.
I'm at the very early stages of doing this and am unsure about which language I should be using. It seems the examples provided by Apple with the SDK are in C++, but I was just wondering if anyone had any opinions about using C or Objective-C instead?
As a bit of background, I code in VB.Net but also have a little bit of experience in Java and Perl so I'm fairly comfortable with languages which share a similar syntax with C.
Thanks very much,
Steve

Hi Steve
I see this is your first posting - welcome
If you're thinking of writing an audio unit then I sincerely recommend that you sign up to Apple's official Core Audio API e-mailing list.
Go to this site: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo and choose core audio api.
Best wishes

How can I add the Language Toolbar to my English version of Firefox? I want to be able to switch to Japanese language for certain websites and when typing e-mails.
There should be something that allows me to switch back and foth between Japanese and English...or is that in Windows XP and not in the browser?

WCM for Multi-lingual Website How To?

Hi,
I am new to Oracle UCM, and would like to know if there is any link/document talking about WCM for multi-lingual website?
Which is the best way if a website contains content in different language such as English, Chinese, etc.
Thanks.

Sapan has provided a good start with the "lc" iDocScript command. However, this only works for your static strings such as menus, etc.
You will need to put a lot of thought into how to handle multiple languages with your data files. A lot of people have several copies of their web sites (one for each language), but this gets kind of difficult after the languages start to add up. WCM is very good at multi-site management, but the number one thing to keep in mind for multi-lingual: do not be fooled, it is going to take some real roll your sleeves up old fashioned work.
There are several options for multi-lingual site architectures and I recommend you spend a few weeks with an Oracle WCM Architect talking it out (either form oracle or one of the many partners). It's just too large a topic for a forum post to answer satisfactorily.

When using Exprt PDF, the choice of language for the document to be exported is sometimes very restricted, while sometimes many more languages are available. What's the matter?

Dear Mrs.,
I now add 2 print screens which show what I get when I try to export a PDF from Adobe Reader and which languages are available.
The same problem does not exist when I use the website.
I hope this gives you a clue.

Unable to change language for SAP BW Report Iview

Dear all
We are currently rolling out BW Web Templates can be displayed in both EN and MS languages. The language can be changed via the URL that we display, e.g.
For English Language:
http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=EN&cmd=ldoc&template_id=ZTEST
For Malay Language :
http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=7&cmd=ldoc&template_id=ZTEST
We have published these templates into Ent. Portal 6 using SAP BW Report Iview, but unfortunately we cannot view the report in the Malay language (SAP-LANGUAGE=7), even though we have inserted the command SAP-LANGUAGE=7 in the SAP BW Report Iview query string. All the reports, although defaulted to SAP-LANGUAGE=7 displays in English. We also tried to set the language settings for the Iview, but there are no language 7 or MS in the Iview. It can only be defaulted to the Portals language, which is English.
Note that the reports can be viewed in the different languages if we using the URL separately outside of Portal, and also within BW Bex Analyzer itself. Only the Portal doesnt allow us to view the reports in MS language.
Can someone help us on this matter? All helps really appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Hi Chris,
That's a bit odd indeed. If I understand your question correctly, you do get the BW reports in the correct language (either English or Malay) using the url's in your post but not when using them within a standard BW report iView?
The language setting for the iView has, unfortunately, nothing to do with the language for the content itself but can you tell me what the requested URL is for both Reports?
The BW Report iView is based on the Application Integration Component that generates the URL based on the paramaters you provide in the BW report iView.The following template is being used: <iView[PORTAl_URL]>?System=<System[url_Encode]>&Report=<Report>&DynamicParameter=<DynamicParameter[url_Encode]>. I could be that the generation of the URL fails due to the 7 (don't know why, just a gut feeling because it's the only thing that's different between those urls). You could try to use create an iView based on the Application Integrator instead (some more control over the URL template) but first you need to check whether the URL generated by the iView is correct.
Cheers!

How do I create an email list sign up form for my iWeb website?

Well that's the question - how do I create an email list sign up form for my iWeb website?
Could someone tell me what's the simplest way using iWeb to create an interactive option
for users to enter their email address and the info be forwarded to me so I can add to an
email list?
It would be great if, since I'm using a Mac computer & iWeb, there was a way to have the
submitted emails automatically added to a group in my Mac Addressbook.
I got this MacBook Pro in Sept 2010 so I believe that's iWeb '08 I'm using.
Anyway I'm thinking there should be a way to do this with some system involving an HTMK
Widget and an email account.
By the way this is for hosting through a 'real server', not MobileMe (which I plan to get later
when I can afford it).
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Mark

Website forms require some code in a snippet and a formmail.php script on the server to process the form and send the info to the required email address. You can do all this when you switch to a "real" server.
In the meantime you can use a form or marketing service or, better still, an application like MailShoot which generates the form, handles the database and sends out the bulk emails.

How can I set a permanent default language for Firefox's spellcheck feature, so that I don't have to keep manually selecting the spellcheck language I want?

I have a few languages installed, and Firefox's spellcheck seems to decide which language to use ''at random''. So I have to keep manually selecting the language I want. 99% of the time I want English. So how can I set English as a permanent default language, and leave the manual selection for those infrequent occasions when I want another language spellchecked?

Firefox should store the last used dictionary in the spellchecker.dictionary pref that you can check on the about:config page.

If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Preferences+are+not+saved
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Can't the iPod nano 7th gen. VoiceOver function identify which language that is being used? My iPod Shuffle can.

I am very satisfied with my iPod SHUFFLE (last version), especially with the VoiceOver function which is (quite) able to identify correctly which language is being used in every song: For a Norwegian artist / a song in Norwegian, the artist and title is pronounced in Norwegian; for a French artist / a song in French, the artist and title is pronounced in French; for an English artist / a song in English, the artist and title is pronounced in English etc. A really impressive and useful function!
I was very surprised and dissatisfied to find that my new iPod nano 7th generation does not seem to work this way: I am able to select the language to be used in VoiceOver, but then this language is used in everything that is pronounced. Most of my music is in English language, so this is what I have selected. But to hear Norwegian artists' names and Norwegian titles pronounced with an English-speaking voice is quite disturbing.
I believe I have been through all possible settings in the nano and in iTunes to correct this, but I am unable to find a solution. I have also asked people at an Apple store, but they were unable to help. Can anybody help? Or is it really possible that this excellent function has been removed?
(Could it be that the previous version of iTunes could fix the problem? I have installed the last one, v. 11.0.1.12.)

Tips for Changing Flash Website to HTML / Dreamweaver

I am going to be taking over the management of a website that was designed entirely in Flash. There really is no need for the entire website to be entirely in Flash - it is confusing to navigate and most of the content would be so much easier to update and maintain if it were saved in html. I want to keep two flash effects - one is the splash page and the other is gallery where a grid of photos flips up like cards and you can click the individual photos for a link to a specifications page.
So, my question. Is there an easy way to transition the site from flash only into html / dreamweaver? I think I already know the answer to this - "NO" - I'm going to have to redesign the site in dreamweaver and just insert the two flash elements I want to keep, but if anybody has any tips or tricks that would be FANTASTIC! Thanks.

The problem with FLASH sites is that they speak a different language - Action Script instead of HTML. While some Flashy effects can be emulated with DHTML (JavaScript, JQuery etc...) it's not always possible to achieve the exact same feel without FLASH. Everything depends on how Flash-centric the original site is and how much your client/boss is willing to toss out in favor of a more web accessible, search engine / user friendly / standards compliant website.
Incidentally, SPLASH pages are a complete waste of prime URL real estate. You don't want a Flash or image only SPLASH intro page on your ALL IMPORTANT domain name default page. If anything, you need to rebuild home page in HTML with plenty of keyword rich content for search engines and people to grab onto.
For more meaningful suggestions, please post a URL to the live site? It will be interesting to see how it ranks on Google and other SEs.

Which ssd for my macbook pro?

Hi community.
I have a Macbook pro 13" model number A1278 which is now running 8gb of Kingston memeory and I was thinking of upgrading the drive to an ssd. I want to continue with the Kingston brand and would like to go pretty big in capacity, hopefully future proof as much as I can. Anyone tell me which one or maybe a website where can I go to get the right ssd for this particular model?
Many thanks.

I know you said you're thinking of Kingston, but I really have to recommend OWC's SSDs:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/
I've been using a 120GB Electra for a while now and it's fantastic. You'll find that their SSDs are very well reviewed, especially when it comes to their ability to maintain consistent speeds over their lifetime. And as for future-proofing: they're all SATA3, and come in sizes up to 1TB.
Of course, if you want a Kingston, I'm sure you'll find one that meets your needs. SSDreview.com has reviewed several of their drives in the past few months.

Choose multiple languages for OCR in a pdf document?

I use Adobe Acrobat X Pro (version 10.1.12) for OCR. Two scenarios:
1. I have a scanned pdf file, which has English for text, and English and Greek letters for math symbols and formulas. How shall I specify the languages for OCR, so that both can be recognized?
2. I have another scanned pdf file, which has Chinese for text, and English and Greek letters for math symbols and formulas. How shall I specify the languages for OCR, so that all the three can be recognized?
Thanks!

I do not think that is possible.

I do not know if there is a dedicated OCR package that can do what you want.

Arabic language for PlayBook os 2

I'm from egypt and i use Arabic language and i heard that there are Arabic language for PlayBook but i can't git or fiend it
Please help me to install Arabic language for my PlayBook
Thank you

Dear Sir or Madam
I recently bought one of your products, the Blackberry Playbook. It is a great tablet and powerful. I speak English but my mother tongue is Arabic. Because I had a Blackberry phone and the Arabic language is fully supported in all blackberry phones so I thought that there will be no problem with the Playbook regarding Arabic language support.
However, unfortunately, my guess was wrong. The tablet does not support Arabic language. When using the bridge feature the Arabic letters are displayed unconnected and in the wrong direction (from the left to right instead from right to left).
This makes the Playbook useless for me in many situations, for example when presenting documents for conference.
I am writing to you to know if there is a fix for this or if you are updating the language support for the playbook in short coming time.
Please do not use the word soon, as this word lost its meaning when Google abused its use. The life of an electronic gadget is very short these days, so the full support should be available for the user to benefit from the gadget.
In addition, Blackberry phones are very popular in the Middle East and many people, which I know, said to me they will never buy the Playbook if there is no Arabic language support, (I discovered this after I bought the playbook).
If you are aiming high and looking to compete with the leading producer in the tablet market, then just look at how it is easy to change the interface language in the Apple iPad.

How to force english language for VC BI Iview

Hi,
All developments in BI system are english so when users launch VC BI Iview from the portal what ever the logon language in the portal we would like that users get results in english.
In the VC iview, for parameter Forced Request Language we select value English but it doesn't work.
We don't find other iview parameter which allows to do that.
With BEX WEB template iview, we can do that by setting LANGUAGE=EN for parameter Application Parameters in the
iview.
Do you know how to force English language for VCBI Iview ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Mai

Hello,
If you use Delta Links between your portal objects (role, workset, page, iview), make sure that the Forced Request Language is set to "English" on the linked iView (which is only accessible from the page, from the workset, from the role...)
