The old disappearing right scroll bar. Still bugged and there are prior discussions.

Microsoft got reports in 2015 so they know. I bet they don't care.

I wish you had found a new bug here.

PS. Broke in IE11 too. Did not try this fix (scroll down at link to follow,

Thanks AndrisP. I was under the impression Ubuntu, even in it's phone version had and allowed other browsers.

That's sad news. Adding with edit. The news was worse than I expected.

On top of stopping development they killed off the app portal. This explains so much.

This is what you see with BlackBerrry phones and their browser issues. Since the user base is so small, it's hard to get support from anyone.

Second PS. The more I read about this phone the more it became clear I'd be installing Android.

I can't tell which browser was used. Try the other web browsers. I often find when on bleeding edge platforms that can help.

I'll write no to the robots.tx file.

As to .htaccess, I quickly read http://www.htaccess-guide.com/ and the answer is not yes or no.
No it appears not to apply to the initial first error.
Yes as the error screen that appears after the first error seems to show that the error documents ( http://www.htaccess-guide.com/error-documents/ ) looks to be not setup.

Here's what http://stunneroftheday.com/images/featured/header/xenia1.jpg coughs up. Remember that link is what was in the HTML code from your site.

Not Found

The requested URL /images/featured/header/xenia1.jpg was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache Server at stunneroftheday.com Port 80

Sorry but as I don't run this site all I can do is share what HTML it gave to the browser then the test image that coughed up an error that you would find out why that happened.

That is, you would grab your laptop or phone to get out of the office to a hotspot so you can see the error yourself.

As I don't admin your server all I can do is share the error. How you configure the server and where you put files (images) is up to you (if you run this server.)

The HTML code was where I got the link and it bombed.

In other words, I used view source and tested. Which failed.

Looks borked. http://stunneroftheday.com/images/featured/header/xenia1.jpg coughs up internal server error. Looks like your hardcoding of the image paths is off or the server doesn't allow access to or have the image there.

Sorry but all skill levels arrive here. So there is a specific ping that gets replies from all on the LAN. Do you remember your IP networking class on that?

Also, what's wrong with looping?

And why not have the router's own log do this for us?

I feel you are working too hard. I recall doing this with PING and ARP (see google if you forgot how.) And maybe NIRSOFT has an app as noted at http://www.howtogeek.com/tips/how-to-quickly-get-the-mac-address-of-any-windows-pc-on-your-network/

The reason you most likely failed is that computers on your network don't send you traffic. That is, your switch doesn't show you all traffic so you can't pick the information off that way. You'll have to ping machines and hopefully the ARP cache will fill or you can use arp directly.

Sorry no, not an offer to write a tutorial on IP commands.

Practive exams should not be what's on the test. The practice is to show the form and possible items on the actual test. The final in almost all courses can cover what's in the actual course.

I took a look at the exam and in development doesn't seem to mean you can't take it and get your cert.

-> Just like a college course the prof can change the course material and tests every season.

@OP about your search functions and all works, my bet is the search functions returns less than 10 thousand or million. I am guessing you haven't had a class on how SQL works. Sets? Remember sets?

A search in most cases will not return the entire database (select *).

-> But just in case you ask why datagridview works and listview differs, the first gets as much data as it needs for the display (fast) and listview in your current design does a Pokemon "gotta get them all."

A 10K item listview is rare. And 10 Million is just a bad design since how could any user scroll through that many.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4944123/how-many-items-a-listview-can-store kicks around the capacity of Listview along with the issues of design and how to load as many as you can see at a time.

I'd think over the design since such a bulky listview is a sign something is off in the desing.

When you wrote the tests are still in development I begin to worry these are not Microsoft's own test but one of those rather ripping you off companies with fairly worthless certs. (Oh boy am I going to hear about that!)

If there is no company you are targeting, get the latest Server certs. Creating users, pools, shares, permissions, logins is so similar that you only need to google to fill in some blank if you knew Server 2016 and had to work on 2012. In fact with most things I rarely open the book or recall from training today. I use google a lot.

Is that a bad thing?

PS. To clarify a thought here. We had an IT staffer that for some odd reason would not google a thing. They were always asking how to do stuff or wanting to call Microsoft. They didn't last long. Just a few weeks.

Exactly opposite here. Companies around me use the latest version to avoid not only security issues but having to re-re-re-deploy later. There are other reasons but this is the top one I run into. There are other world areas that will stick to the older versions so you need to tailor your cert to who's hiring.

Don't buy that older is more secure line. Microsoft is closing down support of old versions faster than ever and in many cases leaving the exploits intact and as-is without any patches (as they did with Windows NT and 2000!)

TL;DR follows. Get the cert your employer wants.

This will break in so many ways. I'd rethink my design. Maybe use a sync app that fires up and syncs the Excel file to the server when the file is changed.

I re-read the linked post I offered and do see where AirShow had a reply with the @media item. I think it's a long discussion so you have to pick through it all to find the details.

But "Removes the rest of the page from print (what I want) but the search Value disappears (what I don't want)"

Look up at my first reply about where I first read http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_print.asp
As long as you use that method, you have to hide all you don't want to print first, then if you want to change the view, you do that in your javascript. window.print(); does what it does so what AirShow noted works around that.

Recap. "The print() method prints the contents of the current window." means you have to put ONLY what you want to print in the current window that you want to print. AirShow's answer seems to work around this with style. Maybe you have to think over the print() method again and what it does.

I looked at your fiddle (thanks for using that!) and didn't find the required "@media print" section noted by AirShow.

I just happened to check in before nap time so BBL.

I had to first read http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_print.asp

So there is it, this method isn't going to do what you asked.

Read AirShow's reply at https://www.daniweb.com/programming/web-development/threads/258522/printing-the-contents-of-a-div-keeping-styling about stylesheets and the print media feature in the CSS style sheet.

Sorry but I'll try to pair this down. Look in your bin folder (varies with the OS) for a mkdir app. Here there is no such thing as that's built into my bash (Unix console) and the system I looked at didn't need an external mkdir in the bin.

Also open a shell and try
type mkdir

It may tell you it's builtin or where the bin path is and then you can use the full path or know if you need to shell to bash with a command line.

https://www.tutorialspoint.com/execute_bash_online.php is an example we can kick around a little.
Try
type eval
there.

And there it is. I was wondering if your OS actually has a binary called mkdir. On many systems I have to launch a shell (bash or other) then add the command to the bash command line.

My second thought over all this is the folder manipulation could be done in native Java. Why shell out and break your app from running everywhere?

Similar thread noting yet another similar thread at https://www.daniweb.com/programming/software-development/threads/379733/periodic-table-in-c

Looking at priors too with https://www.google.com/search?q=c+sharp+periodic+table+app finds ready to use code to make or just use.

Just a thought. Since the linked site currently only has 189 items why not rip it one time onto another sheet and update as you see fit.

Seems a lot of work for what doesn't appear to change often.

PS. Added with edit. It's clunky but a while back to click things on the site we used the SendKeys() function to tab to the item and send the enter key to fire off the button.

I want to add two thoughts here.

1. Some think of a programmer is only a programmer if they are employed as a programmer. An artist is an artist if they produce art.
   So get out there and write something. Anything. The more the better.

2. Money. That's where the code hits the road and brings home the noodles. Just like an artist pay is all over the map. Be frugal, prepare for the rainy day, never stop learning.

So, madness.

Glad it helped. My Linux work over the years has been more on those embedded versions like HardHat Linux. And right or wrong the embedded stuff was almost always straight up C.

You escaped the asylum.

So I used google to see that gcc on centos question. It turns out you may have to compile gcc to get gcc.
https://www.vultr.com/docs/how-to-install-gcc-on-centos-6 for example. Of course you become an expert or descend into madness at that point.

Anyhow, glad my small contribution paid off above.

Just a note. I've seen the printer selected to influence formatting and cell width/height. So there's that.
If I was working this I'd use the following call to see what the height was on good and bad table.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.word.cell.height(v=office.11)

If the height is set to auto, then it's possible that won't show until the display is refreshed or the printer is selected.
You appear to know about Word and how it's WYSIWYG is not set in stone. That is, it changes with each printer we print to. Some think that's a bug but that's how it works.

A call to set the printer for the doc and repaginate is not unusual to see how it will look on this printer.

I googled priors on this and it appears you need to compile on the OS you want to target. I think you've seen a lot of apps are from repositories for each Linux OS version. So to target CentOS you need to compile with CentOS.

That out of the way, this is why many move to interpreted languages. Java, JS, PHP, etc.

Just a small thing. Try to mark your answered posts answered if can.

OK, I grabbed the Windows Portable version, ran it, Dazah login and now this reply.
That's as clean as I can make this. If this posts, it worked on W10.

From the web:

Chrome changed css cache behavior. Ctrl + R will do it.
On OS X: ⌘ + R

Since no clues are showing up, I wonder, could be a CDN caching the content? I mean you tried the incognito and now it's spread to other computers.

@gentle. Is there a site we can test this for you? The site I see it only does it under certain conditions and it may be site specific. But my bet is something's up both site and Chrome.

I'm going with yes, something is up (or down.)

Test like this: Open an incognito windows then Ctrl-F5 in your normal window and see if it shows different results from an Incognito window,

I haven't dug into this but on another forum, I hit the link, no update. Hit it again and a 404, hit it again and the content shows up. Next time I'm going to have to try the Incognito test.

At least we didn't ask how to use the three seashells.

Fiddling with your code, "display: flex;" seems to be what breaks dots. Try other values?`

Remember "Only works in combination with the mentioned overflow value." So if you don't set overflow, then it's working as expected.

I missed that connection above and went checking on support. So if you don't set overflow, it will.

Can I Use also claims that Firefox doesn't support it,

I rechecked and it noted support for Firefox versions 49 to 53. My concern is that only iE11 was listed and too many use IE and lower versions so this is going to be hit and miss.

What I don't understand is you solved this, (read your code.)

The last time I did this, it was on the host OS and I have to google it if I ever have to do this again. A little complicated but doable.

Here's the thing. http://caniuse.com/#search=ellipsis tells me that this may not work except on the listed browsers.

So IMO, nothing broken, just wasn't supposed to work on a lot of browsers.

Aha, now I get it. Some systems have a flag to the world that it's been edited. I will share a rather big forum at CNET doesn't show it either. Sorry I didn't get your question at first.

I think that happened to me. That is, edited and saved but it looked wrong. I had to press F5 to refresh the view and it was OK.

Since you are open to formatting, look up the old HP USB FORMAT TOOL (google it!) and try that. I'll skip any advice about running as admin, formatting on Linux and head to the obvious. These things have limited life spans. Here a 16GB stick is now under 4 bucks at the grocery store. Only those that can't wrap their head around the life span or cheapness spend more than a hour trying to save it.

I don't think I can cover what is something we covered in a graphics programming session but I'll try.

Example. If you use a simple for loop and change the image size or location you are at the mercy of task scheduling in the browser and OS.

This is why you use a timer to fire off the changes. That was at each discrete time interval you get so much change.

So, you say want smooth, then you set the position, opacity based on time not on random processing speed of the browser.

I have to ask. Did you try .001 instead of .05?

I can't write your app for you but you could, in your app, have a "listener" for a message that the database has changed.

If this was me I'd have some server that hosted the database and an app to notify subscribed clients there was a change.

But I must stop short of writing your app and answer that given the story so far all you need is the design, your server and client apps.

-> It's possible that you may want to forget any client app and make it all web based on your server. That way inventory data is centralized and you never lose track of who is the master. The other upside is you never deal with client apps. Your server/web/database doesn't care if it's Android, iOS, Windows or other devices asking.

Then your app would send such messages as need be. I don't see the problem here.

Unless you were expecting such an app to be off the shelf.

You have to define offline here. By offline you mean no internet. It appears you have a LAN with WiFi so is that connected or not?

Here's a similar reason I bailed on a company like that. I didn't tell them outright why but it was the company had ripoffs of almost every software they used. Such a company would likely (and did) have no respect for the creators in the company. They imploded a year later and probably best for all that could to be clear of the blast zone.

Today I think the following when someone wants help with cracked software.

Help me jack this.

Nope.

Are you getting random numbers? You should System.out.println() that to see if that is the issue or something else.
