| | Agreed. (And is my vote the only one that matters? just kidding!) I think the Geek's Lounge is meant for off-topic chat such as this. :) |
 | Re: New badges Thanks mikeandike! You're right, OurNation, they've gone through a few incarnations over the past day. :) I actually don't want to post them on the public profile because the idea is for only the badge owner to get their certificate. :) In addition, everything displayed on the certificate is shown …  |
| | Re: (dda) Not sure if this is at all what you're looking for, but here are some links I found off of none other than Google ... [url="http://escience.anu.edu.au/lecture/cg/Line/modifiedAlgorithm.en.html"]http://escience.anu.edu.au/lecture/cg/Line/modifiedAlgorithm.en.html[/url] [url="http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/people/mukundan/cogr/DDA.html"]http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/people/mukundan/cogr/DDA.html[/url] Not even sure if this is what you're looking for. In the future, please be more specific with your question (and use complete … |
| | Open IE. Then click on the View menu ... then Explorer Bar, and then Media. I hope that's what you're looking for. Perhaps something happened when you used Windows Update to upgrade from Windows Media Player 9 to version 10? I'm not sure :( |
 | Alex is correct, but I just want to comment on this. I do have the ability to filter out certain advertisements that are inappropriate, etc. And I did so to the WeatherBug ads, granted I was told that the software is spyware. [b]However, please keep in mind that when I …  |
 | Aww ... I'm not a slackware user nor am I familiar with him, but I wish him all the best. :( |
| | Yesterday a package arrived at my doorstep. It was a cool little handheld radio / mood light ... a gift from google for the holidays. Granted I spend a hefty penny in Google AdWords and I make an equal amount through Google AdSense. Has anyone else received a gift from …  |
| | Just to summarize what Christian said ... Strings are stored in memory as an array of characters. An array is referenced in C++ by a pointer to its first element in memory. The [] following the array's name represents its offset from this first element in memory. Therefore, when you … |
| | When it automatically opens, does it go to your homepage, or is there a particular URL that it always loads? Does it show you advertisements? Is it completely at random or have you noticed a pattern when using certain software? I would post a HijackThis log in the Viruses and …  |
| | After installing Adobe Photoshop, the program associated all of my JPG and GIF files with it, and I like it this way. My JPG and GIF icons now have a Photoshop icon, and clicking on them opens Photoshop. However, I've since installed Macromedia Studio MX. Since doing that, Macromedia Fireworks … |
| | I have been noticing lately a lot of new members will register on the site, and then PM me with their questions instead of even attempting to post on the forums. Has anyone here had any experience with prohibiting the use of private messaging until a member has reached some …  |
| | We have a forum dedicated to Internet Explorer. It's located here: [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum29.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum29.html[/url] You can post your question by clicking this link: [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=29"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=29[/url] |
| | I'm sorry about the downtime today fellas. DaniWeb was unfortunately down from about 3pm to 8pm EST, due to complications performing a routine upgrade to the server. Unfortunately, I didn't catch that there was a problem until 8PM, when I got home from school (last day of class btw!), so … |
 | Re: Excel 2002 That would be the Windows Software forum :) [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum92.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum92.html[/url] |
| | I think that a CMS and forum system called Drupal ([url="http://www.drupal.org"]www.drupal.org[/url]) does something like this. It's a full PHP community solution. However, from what I remember, it offers the feature of a Passport-type system where someone can choose to use a single login for any Drupal-powered site. It is also … |

| | RedHat 5.2 is the earliest version of RedHat I've used. I installed it on my PII 400Mhz machine at the time, and later on my PII 233Mhz where it worked perfectly. I've also seen it run a bit slow on a 486, and a 75mhz machine is faster than that, … |
| | Moving this out of the Windows 9x sub-forum and into the general Windows forum (which is intended for Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/misc.) [future edit]I don't know what I was thinking. This belongs in the hardware forum. We haven't even loaded Windows![/future edit]  |
| | It depends who your web hosting provider is. Many webhosts offer cPanel which lets you perform webserver maintenance such as creating databases, e-mail accounts, that sort of thing. Sometimes cPanel is set up to allow easy default installations of popular free php scripts, such as phpBB. You can create an … |
| | There is an existing code snippet on this ... [url]http://www.daniweb.com/code/snippet109.html[/url]  |
| | What are the choices? edit: Oops. I'm sorry. I missed the poll. I voted for not liking either. There's just something about long-winded keyword-rich domain names that I don't like. I like unusual words that are easily brandable ... such as Google or DaniWeb ;)  |
 | A big problem that I see is that your AdSense banner is at the very bottom of the page. Usually, when people browse forums, they stop reading after the last thread listed on the page or after the last post they see. Therefore, you want to bring the ad up … |
| | Just make sure you have some type of automated script written to determine who referred the most number of new members that have more than 5 or so posts ;) That is going to be the tricky part. Also, I would take a look at your current statistics for new … |
| | DaniWeb is actually hosted with them guys :) In addition, we use Plesk and Red Hat Enterprise, because I find the Plesk interface much more intuitive than cPanel. There are some things I still would rather do via a terminal, though ;) But regardless, in a productive environment where uptime …  |
| | I am really picky about domain names ... especially long-winded ones, but I sorta like it :) It stirs curiosity, which I like. It isn't something like webcomic.com :) |
 | Oh, I'm sorry I missed this thread, Alex. RSS feeds work the same here as anywhere else. There are little orange RSS buttons throughout the forum pages. |
| | Nope, there's no IRC channel. Mostly because I've never been much of an IRC junkie and wouldn't know the first thing about setting one up. A second reason is because bandwidth and processor usage of the server is, of course, a huge concern. The only channel I frequent on the … |

| | [QUOTE=xinix]Ok, I didn't know how do put this snippet into the C++ section, so here it is... Sorry if you wanted to read it in the code section![/QUOTE] The code snippet library is a resource of fully working code snippets and functions. So you did right posting it here :) |
| | Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but are you using SP2? |
| | Re: Self Hosting I would have to say it's more trouble than it's worth. First of all, most DSL/Cable providers discourage this and go as far as to not only block port 80 (http:// port) but may also cancel your account with them for bandwidth reasons. Secondly, keeping a website up 24/7 requires … |
| | Re: Forum? Thread moved to the Premade Scripts forum. This question has actually been asked multiple times in there, so check out the forum. :) |
| | Well, the first thing to do is decide whether you want to use a WYSIWYG editor to design your site, or if you want to learn HTML and design it from scratch in Notepad or a regular ol' text editor. I'm assuming the former. I highly recommend Macromedia Dreamweaver MX …  |
| | I used ext3 on my RedHat 7.3 box. Now I have a Mac which uses HFS with journaling. |

 | Hehe thanks for the update. I'm an Nvidia user because I've just never been fond of ATi's drivers. I find their All-In-Wonder, etc. software to be clunky, and ATi cards have never had good luck with me and linux. |
| | I guess I'm a little confused. Doesn't the hardware (i.e. ATi All-in-Wonder, etc.) provide their own proprietary software? Are you looking for an all-in-one solution? What about one of those computer remote controls? |
 | A feature of Microsoft Powertoys for XP is to have multiple virtual desktops. It's a free download from the Microsoft website.  |
| | Just get input from the user as the last line of the program. This will create a prompt until someone types something and then close. |
 | Re: Format C:/ Just don't touch the hard drive after the format. When you format a hard drive, you erase the table that tells where all the files on the drive are physically located (what sectors of the drive are used and which are free). Just so long as you don't use the … |

| | When I was in middle school, we had something called a mini-course. Everyone in a class would go for a period per day to another teacher's classroom and learn about different social studies subjects. Every few weeks, we'd rotate. |
| | |
| | Just drag them to the C:\Windows\Fonts directory. |
| | I've been making some changes to the CSS lately. Your web browser may have cached the old version. Refreshing should fix it. You *may* have to clear your browser cache. (Not your cookies, just the cache.) |
| | It has always been DaniWeb's trademark to have no cellspacing within tables, but rather have all of the table cells flow into each other. While I like the simplistic design, I am now reconsidering the impact that this has on usability. I would really appreciate any and all opinions on …  |
| | Since Pascal isn't a very popular language, it's hidden as a subforum within the Other Languages forum. [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum124.html"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum124.html[/url] You can start a new thread about it here -> [url="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=124"]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=124[/url] |
 | Re: sunglass repair I own / work at an optical store :) There are home repair kits, but I would bring it into your local optical store. :) |
 | It doesn't scroll on any of my computers. I made it slightly bigger ... does this fix the problem? |
The End.
