Offhand it would be difficult to point out the actual cause of your application _not working_ but I guess the collection used to hold values is not getting updated or the DAO methods are returning rogue values in your case. Without more code, I don't think anyone would be as such able to lend a helping hand.

Re: Help needed

Looking at your code, I can clearly see that you are desperately struggling with the language. Maybe you should try to get a firm grip over the langauge(or computer science concepts) rather than diving into problems straight away.

This link has some good resources for beginner C programmers.

Re: fetching data from the database

Also you should consider using JSTL instead of embedding business logic / scriptlets inside your JSP file.

Re: Java

> But I know that in our product, for O&M GUI we use Apache Tomcat
Apache Tomcat is a web container which knows how to handle Servlets and JSP's and has all the capabilities of a normal web server.

Apache Web Server and Apache Tomcat are two different things.

> webserver doesnt support business logic
Thats not a generic statement. It does when your server side logic is written entirely is PHP. AFAIK, there is no app server for PHP, though I admit my understanding of PHP even fails me. Also when you have a small scale project, using a web container gets the job done. Low complexity projects seldom require the power of an Application server.

Re: Java

Depends on what kind of project is under consideration. Some combinations I have seen are:

Web server and database server
App server and database server
Web server, Application server and database server

And BTW, a web server is different from a Servlet container considering that the latter is required if you want to host Servlets and JSP's. Basically its like:

Application Server <- Web Container <- Web Server

Application server incorporates everything.

Re: IE/Firefox difference: [field name] has no properties

The "properties doesn't exists" error is usually thrown when no such element by the given element id or name exists or when you are trying to call a function which the object doesn't possess. (eg. length function on RegExp instead of String).

Something like this. In the code below, it looks for an element with an id 'a' which doesn't exists before the page has loaded. Hence the error message.

<html>
<head>
<script>
    alert(document.getElementById('a').value);
</script>
</head>

        <input type="text" id="a" name="a" value="sanjay" />

Re: Coloring cetain texts within a table

It would be really better if you post the same question with the CSS solution I have provided to you to the ASP.NET section since this has ceased to be a CSS problem and is more of ASP thing.

Once you get what you are looking for, using the class attributes and applying the style of your choice is pretty easy.

Re: Coloring cetain texts within a table

Seeing that you are using ASP, you can use the ASP constructs to do selective rendering.

<html>
<head>
    <style>
        .wrong
        {
            color: red;
        }
        .right
        {
            color: green;
        }
    </style>
    <title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <table style="border: 1px solid green;">
    <tr>
    <%
        dim i
        for i = 1 to 6
           if text = 'NO' then
                response.write("<td class='wrong'>" & text & "</td>")
           else
                response.write("<td class='right'>" & text & "</td>")
           end if
        next
    %>
    </tr>
    </table>
</body>
</html>

Though I am not sure on the ASP code I have written, this is pretty much what you would have to do. This will be either Javascript code or ASP code depending on where the data is coming form i.e. client side or server side.

You can use normal conditional statements to do this work though it would be better if you use JSTL tags to do conditional branching.

Re: Coloring cetain texts within a table

Why do you need Javascript if all you want to do is color the text? You can very well use CSS to do the same.

<body>
    <table style="border: 1px solid green; color: red">

            <td>Hello to all</td>

Re: what does assignment statement return

the compiler designers can write the compiler to:
1) do nothing because the command is undefined
2) do the logical thing the command implies
3) do something they think it should do, which might be logical to them but not to us
4) do anything else they want the command to do, completely unrelated to logic.

Doesn't this sum up to...

Though it might work for you on each run, the same can't be said about it on another machine, compiler or architecture.

lol. firstly thank you. Secondly sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Or at least that is how the saying goes. I believe that it is the opposite.
But i have to say that all the c++ programs which i have done up until now did not have GUIs. I developed visual basic screens for them and invoked them with the shell command. So i have not studied any GUIs MFC or otherwise for c++.

You are being very vague here. Its like asking whether you would prefer salt or sugar. Both are an integral part of your daily meals. Its the same here.

Flash is a client side technology, used for adding presentation and animation to your site. Java when used in the form of Servlets, JSP's and EJB's contribute to the server side scenario of a site.

The minimum requirements to make a site are:

HTML
Client Side scripting (almost always Javascript)
Server side scripting (Java Technology/ .NET / PHP / Python etc.)
Anything else which would help you in adding value to your site.

Try to do some research on what kind of site you would like and come up with a more specific question. You might get a specific answer.

Re: what does assignment statement return

> However I thought that behavior underfined ment that the compiler

You are getting confused between the two of them. Using clrscr() is what constitutues non-portability since it is available only on Borland Compilers and is not a part of the language standard. In other words, change in the architecture, compiler or OS might result in the code not being able to compile.

Undefined behaviour is when people say '..but it works for me'. Returning an address of the local variable and using it is what constitutes undefined behaviour since the memory no longer belongs to the programmer. If you write such code, you are completely at the mercy of the runtime if it decides to use up the memory which was used by your local variable.

int fflush(FILE* stream); Flushes stream stream and returns zero on success or EOF on error. Effect undefined for input stream. fflush(NULL) flushes all output streams.

> where is it used and can you please explain it with a sample code
> where it is used
Output in C is normally buffered, which means that the output is not written character by character but in chunks. It might so happen that a printf statement you wrote never got printed since the code after it caused a segmentation fault. In that case you can force the output to be printed …
