This has been an annoyance for some time now. Hover the mouse of any of the links on the purple ribbon at the bottom of the screen and something or someone is displaying the URL for that link, which hides half the purple ribbon. The same thing happens with IE8, …

I just installed IE9 on 64-bit Windows 7, and I've pinned DaniWeb to my task bar. But the IE9 icon just looks like the standard IE letter 'e'. I read that we need a special *.ico file, see [URL="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg491740(v=VS.85).aspx"]this link[/URL] Does anyone know anything about this, because I sure don't.

Did you wantch it? I saw the last part, got up at 5:00 a.m. and saw it on CNN. Awesome :) And the gods apparently thought so too because there was lots of sunshine, flag waving, and everything was perfect. I thought 90-year-old Price Phillip looked really really old (of …

I tried to write up a test program that uses std::copy and istream_iterator to copy one text file to another. But it doesn't work because the '\r' and '\n' in the file are lost. I've tried opening the input and output files in text mode and I've tried opening them …

>>Ok, so time() function (argument being null) returns what? It returns the number of seconds since 1970, as you previously posted. It doesn't matter whether the parameter is NULL or not, it will always return the same value.

Glad to see you are working on the spacing problem with icode tags. Now we don't have to add those extra blank lines after the [noparse][/icode][/noparse] tag. Good work :)

See the red arrow on the screenshot. This only happens in DaniWeb threads, nowhere else. The browser IE8 seems to always be waiting for something.

When you move a thread here in DaniWeb Community Feedback I wish the mods would leave no redirect links. Its rather annoying to see all those moved threads, they just clutter up the list with useless links.
