  1. Has anyone sucessfully implemented this viwer in VB.net and managed to get the viewing portal parmaters from the activeX via the API.When I try and create an instance of the Renderer it bombs out(just does not execute the rest of the code in the form. I know it will be in the passing and settings of parmaters as i have had to turn off "Option Strict" to use the API.
  2. If you have the bandwidth try downloading the Microsoft Express products. They are full development systesm that do not lack power given the price (free)I use them at home to test code that I will use the next day at work.
  3. Sony's Playstation Portable (PSP) may become the video equivalent of the Apple iPod and that PodCasting may have a new challenge: PSP-video-casting.Some possible uses are adding a WiFi card for wireless internet access, GPS for portable mapping system, electronic superbook.Or adding a camera to make it into a no-tape camcorderDo you think this will happen ?
  4. I think videos are exculed, they very rapidly would put you over your site limits (especially bandwidth) There is a system somewhere that hosts such material and you can link to it. It was mentioned in the forums on http://www.aardvark.co.nz/ a week or two ago Regards
  5. Most low cost modems are known as winmodems. These rely on Win32 to do all the smarts for the modem, the hardware is rather primitive. Most "full modems" are usable. Best to try various systems with a Live Linux Disk (i.e Knoppix on CD" and see what works and what does not
  6. If you are interested have a llok at the beginning videos for LearningVisualStudio.net. They are excellent in showing how to approach this language.
  7. Have a look also at he "Stumble" add in. If you get bored with finding "interesting" sites this works well
  8. Camtasis is available (an earlier edition) on some magazine cover disks. It does seem easier to use than some other packages I have used.
  9. With all the pre-built and pre-installed web CMS given by Fantastico I generally do not bother to do any page development.
  10. Is there a lot of difference between confessing to a priest and confessing to an analyst. At least one confession is privaleged
  11. Problem is separating "bundled" from "free" I bet the course fees would be some $100 less if they were not giving away "free' academic XP
  12. The Millenium Bug was marvelous, gave me a tour of the country looking for it Notice how "experts" and "consultants" move from one item of scare to another. With Y2K it was "all care, no responsibility" and they could not lose.
  13. For those of us "oldies" on the forum , perhps the best way to guess at what the world will be like in twenty years would be to look at the predictions made 20 years ago, and see how many came true and how many fizzled.I will see if I can get a paper from that time, and see what predictions were made in 1985.As I remember aside from major changes in technology (Internet, PC's, Biotechnology, Genetic) things were not that much different. And many of the fears at the time did not come to pass.Regards
  14. Or a better question, how are you learning XML today ?
  15. Here in NZ, and in Australia, today we are celebrating ANZAC day. This is the day when we remember not a great victory but a crushing defeat , incurred at a foolish invasion of Turkey by Australian and New Zealand Troops (under the orders of an inept British Command)A third of the troops from the Antipodeas were lost, for no benefit or gain. A equal or greater number of Turkish troops also lost their lives defending their homeland.It is a day we have a holiday to remember the fallen, and the stupidity of war.I wonder is this unique to New Zealand and Australia or do other nations also "celebrate defeat" with a national holiday ?
  16. What is the most trivial use you made of your internet connection ?I just went online to look for how to make ordinary "microwaved" custard (we had thrown the packet with the instructions out)What have you searched for in such a trivial veinRegards
  17. My first game programming was on the 6502 machine code on an Ohio Superboard The output was two rows of LEDS, one horizontal and one vertical
  18. Trouble is you need the "free browser plug-in" to access the fake domain names. And no commercial organisations will put thier network at risk with such plug-ins. Not really a good idea, pay a little amount for a true domain which works anywhere for anyone
  19. IrfanView is freeware only for personal use If you use it without a licence in a company that is a no no.
  20. An offer appeared in a magazine here recently. The advertisement was a "get a good domain name here" and for a reasonable sum offered you "myname.nz.com" (if I remember correctly-may have been net or something similar) Looks good, when you find the name you want at "myname.co.nz" is already taken. But if you look at the URL the domain is actually NZ.COM and all they were offering is a sub-domain and redirect off that domain. And still wanted full price for it. Anyone else seen this practice in other domain areas? Regards
  21. I was interested in the comment "The first World war cost "$400 to every American man, woman, and child."Any figure (auditable) for WW2, Vietman, Korean, Iraq and Terror ?Regards
  22. I have had good experiences with Domainguru.com Good control panel, good redirection and forwarding They are a reseller for ENOM serviices Regards
  23. Have a llook at the DXF file at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ This can be converted to an Aurocad DWG format and should give you a start Regards
  24. What is the best content manager out there? Answer is -depends what you want to do Some are small in footprint (i. Siteframe and Xoops) orther larger. Some will allow you to add module (phpWebsite and Mambo) other are all in one. If you have only a small amount of space then I would suggest Siteframe, for more the Xoops, to emaulate an exisiting site then Typo3 Regards
  25. Obesity, like smoking, causes the cause. Of itself it will not kill, but the icreased blood pressure that results will shorten life- in some cases. And Obesity is not the only cause of blood pressure.It all to do with risk factors and reducing them.
