And I suppose I could have done my homework first instead of soliciting the comments of the EXPERTS before putting this, my neck, on the block to see if this "topic" is not indeed a well rounded discussion already ... and from that draw the actual attention I wish to bring here, and thereby itch my own rub, but I'd like to suggest that somehow, some way the format disposed by the server as a webpage of Questions tagged by the user's choice and given some sort of the kind offered (unanswered|active|new\top rated), where indicative of the "Page 1 of 21" (lower left) followed by the first ten page links (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10), and then immediately to the lower right where both "First dot Prev dot Next" become instrumental in switching to the next fetchable set in the 21 total ... the returned set for "Next" actually be 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19. and 20; not page "2" of "21". For example here: Quick Answers[^] After all, isn't the lower right hand apellative of "Next" refering to the next set of ten found items tagged as what the user wishes to narrow his list of possible entries by using a filter? I could post an image of what happens when I pick "Next" at this first filtering and what you would see in that image is the "Page 2 of 21" message that would be propagated by a mouseclick on "2". And I could spell out the word "REDUNDANCY" in Photoshop, copy and paste that image for further effect but I think anyone who is unalienably amenable to comments, agent of CP or no, would agree that the first paragraph of description of my observation should suffice. ;)

Yes, it does seem expensive but ... what has anything got to do with (subject that shall remain unspoken)?

Go Mets!

Lets see, how shall I word this ... It sounds as if I do indeed have a problem loading an image using an HTML file that I saved to my hardrive when, in fact, what I meant to say is that I would obviously use a script. And to show where the file is so that a function could get it for me I'd use "imageURL" and "push" it. But being in a rhetorical holiday mood I was being facetious and using this fast-as-all-get-out < img src= /> tag in order to make my sarcastic point. Why answer? Because using < img src="file:///C:/Users/Member_13108495/images/pianoGrande.jpg" /> loads only a broken page icon WHEN the HTML is using an extant path. The real point is that, in my understanding of it ... for purely security reasons, as you state, shuffling through the contents of a hardrive using a webbrowser is faux pas (even though Firefox doesn't "seem to have any problems with that" (quoting some nerd on SO yesterday)). The only way one could use < img src= /> is what I said in the displayed example I provided; the image has to be in the folder where the .html resides.

Simplest example:

    ![](file_found_in_same_folder_as_this_html_snippet.jpg)

And now for a better question: Why can't I point to a file that is not in the same folder as the HTML file referencing the image I want to display? [EDIT] ... by hardcoding it in the body as a string, that is, like here, but providing a full path and drive location ..? [/EDIT]

Yeah, my interface is a typical Windows application standing alone purchased from a well known purveyor of a proprietary language. And their thing, as such being a language, is probably to provide inroads to automaticity of just such a process as a TSR. The fact that I don't complain about having to depress a button on a Windows form shouldn't indicate that I'm probably not going to like something else I'd run into down that road that'll cause lightning bolts to fly from my rearend, it just means I don't know everything about their language yet. But I keep a fire extinguisher handy.

Refreshed BBC News - News Front Page ... (Last refreshed @ 10:26:47 on 08/29/2024): 46 items none of which were duplicated in the list "Outdoor ... to ... car crash" :)

Yousef10 @ stackoverflow (SOS: "Microsoft Print PDF" PaperSize) says "don't worry" ... it's the printer's fault. And your code's the same as his; so first step -> try running your print PDF routine with a different printer?

If you hadn't posted the feed I have access to I'd have downvoted your Lounge lizard and suggested you get a hold of jan_hus over in the LINUX forum to ask him how his mauve thing fares ;)

I always thought a Thunderbird was some sort of American Indian symbol for a diety. I have access to RSS BBC however and the list of current 49 headliners (beginning with the word "Tributes" and ending with "sweeps in" show exactly zero duplicates. I'll keep an eye on the feed as you request; given that the weekend is upon us ... and let you know how things are going ... shall we say ... next week.

Lemme wade in here: Simple Windows Service in C++[^] From the word "Service", used in the title of the article, I would surmise that there's at least a 30% chance of it being used in reference to the MS "Windows" shingle. Peering at the code I see nothing but orders for mother to stay up there until I get back.

"Check internet connection" might mean your network has gone from Private to Public and that could be a bad sign obviously ... or perhaps, as what happened to me before I updated my webbrowser, the "snooper" of the browser, because it was old and unpatched and attackable from the standpoint of malicious payloads, stopped resolving system parameters. In which case, the safe-side behavior was to deny "service" to the user. (Hope I got most of that right ...) I suggest updating/upgrading all webbrowsers.

Huh ... probably just waiting for hell to freeze over ... :)

CP S: 'Qt' ...[^]

I've always seen "disaster" as meaning something along the lines of the scenario where you and your old man are standing in the garage before the wooden bench where the VW block has the right half of it's case removed and the crank & cam shafts are exposed but there's a sigh of relief emanating from your throat after discovering that all the cam followers are in ittybitty peices in the oily crevases of the left half and you'd begun to choke upon seeing this ... because, while discussing who's going to foot the bill for a new set of cam followers, your old man clearly says ... he will. Then your brother's leg, with the foot still attached, comes plunging through the drywall ceiling and it becomes even more relieving to find that the rest of his body is stopped in it's downward motion by the two-by-twelve rafter and you and your old man hear him say "It's ok, I'm not hurt"! And of course, no legs were amputated in the thought of late "What was that terrible dream about where I crossed the field, leaving behind that headless dalmation, and the image of looking down and seeing I was missing a leg".

A similar story here but with the hardware end of the software/computer tale. As you say "plopped" down exactly $3999.99 for a perpetual license and skinned my knuckles for easily ten years coming up to speed with the interface. And what an interface it was/is; more than any user could ever master kind-of-thing PERIOD. Come time for perpetual license idea scrapped by the company, ackompanying the idiomatic $4000.00/year subscription, subscribing to a new-fangled interface also chocked with more features on top of the last more features (this company has always been an industry big name and has been in the game since software and personal computers were born) ... became a non-sequiter but I had my 64-bit version, even though it ran slow on 16GB of memory. Gungho still and undetered from no more updates/upgrades, computer evolution goes on, etc. Come limitless amount of memory on a new computer (~ year 15) and reinstallation of the application and 6 months of dicking around without thee driver selectively excluded by me upon start up in order to get the thing to show me the interface (without the ability to "color" anything ) ... I was ready to toss in the towel. Now for the hardware part: one day ... as I was waltzing down dingly dell way (tromping through my BIOS with size 14 Sorels on snowshoes and only an umbrella in lieu of a 70lb pack, perhaps because I'd danced through here before and knew better, perhaps not) ... I happened upon the CPU Core Count/Hyperthread limiting ticker. For some reason I spun down the core count to 11 from 32 (approximation; because I don't dick with it anymore since I "fixed" it ... and to make this story less long-winded). Waking back up after a repower on ... I was only looking to see if my box had altered any behaviors, right? And I don't remember why I would have dumped that driver which caused the interface to the app to crash upon load back into the active load folder but I did ... and the app didn't crash! And I now had "color" and could use the full $3999.99 perpetual licensed ball-of-wax. Once in a while the interface crashes and even though it's over twenty years old the app still messages me that I can send the crash dump to the developers now. And there's even the comment box that the devs will read; the one where I tell them ... what I really think of this whole subscription idea.
