I also noticed nothing new but had no problems. You should still upgrade. I also looked up what has changed: Added support for CSS animations The Do-Not-Track header preference has been moved to increase discoverability Tuned HTTP idle connection logic for increased performance Improved canvas, JavaScript, memory, and networking performance Improved standards support for HTML5, XHR, MathML, SMIL, and canvas Improved spell checking for some locales Improved desktop environment integration for Linux users WebGL content can no longer load cross-domain textures Background tabs have setTimeout and setInterval clamped to 1000ms to improve performance Fixed several stability issues Fixed several security issues http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/5.0/releasenotes/[^]

I just hate that the file size limit for a single file is 50MB :thumbsdown: Which means it would take a really long time to get to use that 25GB.

So, it's a spoof... and not funny. Thumbs down. :|

Disable the indexing service and you will notice a HUGE performance increase. Also, one of the blogs I read about SP1 said it will slow down your machine initially while it ?re-organizes? things to be more effecient. It is supposed to run faster in the long run. Disable indexing and you will notice an improvement for sure.

I would say one page is perfect. Every advisor I have spoken to has reccomened one page as well. If someone was able to reduce your resume to one page, then you might have a lot of content that is bland. This is a quick commercial, not a documentary of yourself. You are supposed to capture attention with a cover letter and a resume and then fill in the blanks in the interview. I am a little shocked that anyone would reccomend three to four pages as a limit. That resume doesn't sound like it is getting to the points fast enough. Perhaps I am an exception, but I have landed all of my jobs with a one page resume.

Yes you can. You can run multiple operating systems with Microsofts Virtual PC 2007. This will allow you to install windows xp / MSIE 6.0 and run them simultaneously. I don't remember the download even being that big... but I could be wrong. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/default.mspx[^] You may also need to d/l window xp image which MS provides free (and activated) here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=21EABB90-958F-4B64-B5F1-73D0A413C8EF&displaylang=en[^]

SOLUTION: -------------------- Use ul for the absolute positioned content instead of the just a div. The box models are still inconsistant between browsers with absolute positioned DIVs. You can still wrap the ul in a wrapper div that has a set width and is positioned absolute so that the ul doesn't get pushed left and down to the next line. ------------------ css: #esp_wrapper{ width:250px; position:absolute; display:inline; } .sd{ margin:0; position:absolute; background-color:#efefef; padding:6px; padding-left:5px; border:1px #bbb solid; margin-top:15px; margin-left:6px; } html: * [PDS](#) * [Spec](#) * [MSDS](#) * [Español](#) * [PDS](#) * [MSDS](#)

That is strange advice for a message board... The problem is that I cannot figure this one out on my own. Hence the posting of the question here. No one else seems to know the answer either so I don't feel too bad. Perhaps I will just remove the pop up div.

Which part of that article are you suggesting applies to my position:absolute issue? In scanning the article I didn't see anything relavent.

Check out this page in ie, then check it out in fire fox or safari. This is valid XHTML 1.0. http://profile.prosoco.com/product_list.aspx[^] There is a div that displays when you hover over "Espanol". Why does the div display at the far left of the next line in mozilla and just below the text (Espanol) in IE? I want it to show up just under the text, espanol. How can I get it to do that? Thanks in advance. -- modified at 10:39 Wednesday 5th September, 2007

What do you think about this explanation? The freezing is because the control is being filled out by the data source, and the only thread allowed to do that is the UI. So, if your data source is large there isn't a way around the 2 seconds pause... unless... You could manually fill out your control by looping over the data source yourself, and every 10 or so, do a DoEvents() call to keep the UI fresh.

Thank you Phil. I still get the (Not Responding) for a couple seconds when it gets to "pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src;" This is a lot of data to load. Since it is taking the most time, shouldn't that part be inside bgWorker_DoWork? ... but it cannot because it is updating the GUI ... so I don't konw what to do.

I get the (Not Responding) for a couple seconds when it gets to "pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src;" This is a lot of data to load, however, I thought the background worker would handle that. Right?

It is still freezing the GUI. Let me know if I am doing this how you reccomended or not. Here is what I have: private void LoadCompanies(object sender, EventArgs e) { pnlNavigation.ShowLoader(true); this.bgWorker.RunWorkerAsync(); } private delegate object LoadCompaniesDelegate(); public void LoadCompanies(DoWorkEventArgs e) { PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria criteria = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria.GetCriteria(); BindingSource src = new BindingSource(); PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes nodes = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes.GetNodes(criteria.NodeCriteria()); src.DataSource = nodes; e.Result = src; } private void bgWorker_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) { LoadCompanies(e); } private void bgWorker_RunWorkerCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e) { BindingSource src = (BindingSource)e.Result; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ParentMember = "ParentId"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ValueMember = "Id"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DisplayMember = "Name"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PrefixMember = "CustomerNumber"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PostfixMember = "CityState"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src; pnlNavigation.ShowLoader(false); _activeModule = "Companies"; }

I am new to C# so forgive me for not "just getting it" but this is what I have so far. I am doing something wrong because "BindingSource src = (BindingSource)e.Result;" Doesn't seem to be loading any data... Did I atleast get everything running in the background except the GUI stuff? Can you tell why I wouldn't be loading any data? Thanks in advance. private delegate object LoadCompaniesDelegate(); public object LoadCompanies() { BindingSource src = new BindingSource(); if (pnlNavigation.InvokeRequired) { LoadCompaniesDelegate find = new LoadCompaniesDelegate(LoadCompanies); this.Invoke(find, new object[] { }); } else { PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria criteria = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria.GetCriteria(); PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes nodes = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes.GetNodes(criteria.NodeCriteria()); src.DataSource = nodes; MessageBox.Show("Loaded Notes"); } return src; } private void bgWorker_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) { e.Result = LoadCompanies(); } private void bgWorker_RunWorkerCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e) { BindingSource src = (BindingSource)e.Result; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ParentMember = "ParentId"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ValueMember = "Id"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DisplayMember = "Name"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PrefixMember = "CustomerNumber"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PostfixMember = "CityState"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src; _activeModule = "Companies"; MessageBox.Show("Completed"); }

well I am using vista and the tab control is set to system. The flickering occurs when going back and forth several times showing the hover state. I have antother system on vista that does the same thing.

I changed LoadCompanies so as best I can tell, it isn't loading anything twice. It still has the same (not responding) issue while it loads all the records into the ContentTree. public void LoadCompanies() { if (pnlNavigation.InvokeRequired) { LoadCompaniesDelegate find = new LoadCompaniesDelegate(LoadCompanies); this.Invoke(find, new object[] { }); } else { PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria criteria = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria.GetCriteria(); BindingSource src = new BindingSource(); PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes nodes = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes.GetNodes(criteria.NodeCriteria()); src.DataSource = nodes; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ParentMember = "ParentId"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ValueMember = "Id"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DisplayMember = "Name"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PrefixMember = "CustomerNumber"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PostfixMember = "CityState"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src; } _activeModule = "Companies"; }

It still has the same isse. I'm not sure I understood your suggestion, but I updated it as shown below. However, the gui still hangs while loading the companies. public void LoadCompanies() { if (pnlNavigation.InvokeRequired) { LoadCompaniesDelegate find = new LoadCompaniesDelegate(LoadCompanies); this.Invoke(find, new object[] { }); } else { PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria criteria = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria.GetCriteria(); BindingSource src = new BindingSource(); PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes nodes = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes.GetNodes(criteria.NodeCriteria()); src.DataSource = nodes; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ParentMember = "ParentId"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ValueMember = "Id"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DisplayMember = "Name"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PrefixMember = "CustomerNumber"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PostfixMember = "CityState"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src; } _activeModule = "Companies"; }

My Code below is using a backgroundWorker component. My entire GUI freezes while it loads the content tree from the database. The window even says (not responding) at the top. My desired result is to have a loading animation play while loading the data from the database... am I going at this wrong? Shouldn't the loading take place in the background, preventing the GUI from freezing up? Any ideas? ___________________________________________________________ private void bgWorker_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) { LoadCompanies(); } private void bgWorker_RunWorkerCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e) { ShowLoadingAnimation(false); } private void LoadCompanies(object sender, EventArgs e) { ShowLoadingAnimation(true); this.bgWorker.RunWorkerAsync(); } private delegate void LoadCompaniesDelegate(); public void LoadCompanies() { PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria criteria = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Criteria.GetCriteria(); BindingSource src = new BindingSource(); PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes nodes = PROSOCO.Library.Companies.Nodes.GetNodes(criteria.NodeCriteria()); src.DataSource = nodes; if (pnlNavigation.InvokeRequired) { LoadCompaniesDelegate find = new LoadCompaniesDelegate(LoadCompanies); this.Invoke(find, new object[] { }); } else { pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ParentMember = "ParentId"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.ValueMember = "Id"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DisplayMember = "Name"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PrefixMember = "CustomerNumber"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.PostfixMember = "CityState"; pnlNavigation.ContentTree.DataSource = src; } _activeModule = "Companies"; }
