I've actually considered that, although, I'd rather not crack open the USB case if I don't have to, so I'm looking at that as a last resort. It's a very good suggestion though, thanks.~Viz

So, I have an external Harddrive (Maxtor Personal Storage 3200 500GB) that seems to have some bad sectors. Windows can only read a few of the files on it, and linux is having trouble as well. I am currently running ddrescue in linux, but after only 45.6MB of a 20+GB file, I have 24 errors totalling 405kB. I think some of these issues may be due to low read speed since it is designed for USB 2.0 but is currently only connected to a USB 1.1 port. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything I could do to improve the readability of the drive (other than plug it into a USB 2.0 port, the Windows machine I'm using is USB 2.0 and does worse than linux running ddrescue.)~Viz

I currently have a PS3 that is outputting using HDMI. The HDMI is converted to DVI-D and connected to a Dell 20 inch flat panel. This works nicely, except that I can do a maximum resolution of 780p, and I would like to do 1080p. So I am thinking about upgrading my monitor, and I was thinking, why not go for a 30 inch monitor? But the 30 inch monitor requires DVI-D Dual Link. I was wondering if HDMI could be converted to DVI-D Dual Link or whether I would be wasting my time (and money). The adapter I have has the slots for a Dual Link DVI-D cable, but I don't know if they are actually used, or just available so that a DVI-D Dual Link cable could be connected, since DVI-D Dual Link cables can also carry single link information. Apparently the tech spec for converting between DVI and HDMI is EIA-861 DTV, but I have been unable to find a copy. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.~Viz

Good resource M^E. Although, personally, I still prefer to do all my AJAX code by hand. Once you've dealt with browser issues once, it turns quickly into a copy paste job. Especially with the advent of IE7, which updated the HTTPXMLREQUEST object. Right now, the biggest issue I have with compatibility between browsers is what each of the 4 request states mean in each. However, since none of them completely usefully implement the states, and they all implement state 0 and 4 the same, it doesn't make that much difference. But the tools available are getting much better.~Viz

This is especially true because the moderators do catch most of the spam, and garbage posts, and we are continually updating the tools we have to make it easier to deal with. And having a post (or even a block of text inside a post) will lose more credits than making the post earned in the first place. ~viz

To revive this old post, which I still haven't figured out yet. The other day I was looking through the modularization and XHTML 1.1 specifications, and I notcied how they added MathML. It seemed to be a very simple DTD which simply included the MathML DTD and XHTML 1.1 DTD. So I tried mimicking it, but substituting the IFrame module for the MathML module. The DTD validated fine, but any pages using it complained that <iframe> was undefined. I noticed, when validating the DTD, that it did not check my custom content-model, so I fiddled with the code until it did. But now when I validate the DTD, it doesn't validate, and the problem seems to be inside the IFrame DTD, which I doubt because the W3C wrote that. Any help would be appreciated.

If you log into cPanel, on the left, towards the bottom, you can see the Last reboot. Since it is currently at 2 days 10:25 hours for gamma, I think your guess about a reboot is correct. ~Viz

It could be a problem with the Graphics Adapter. I had a board that had a bad graphics adapter and a similar problem. If that's the problem, maybe plugging in the CRT reset something, a short maybe, and it is now fixed. That is a best case scenario, however.~Viz

Some laptops have a power connection built into the hinge. Don't know if this does, but if wiggling the monitor has the same effect as opening and closing, it could be a problem with the hinge. Try and see.~Viz

Okay, I found this validator, which seems to accurately describe the problem. (Oh, by the way, I have decided to instead of working from scratch, simply modify the XHTML 1.1 DTD) I keep running into problems in which I can't figure out how the original XHTML 1.1 specification works. Here is the current validation page. The problem lies currently in the IFRAME module, which I did not write myself. I am not really sure what the problem is, but it seems to possibly be having trouble in that it is exclusively using the qname module I wrote and not using mine in addition to the default (I have no idea how the DTD even knows to default to the proper qname module). The files can all be found here ~Viz

I've been working on a DTD from scratch now, using XHTML 1.1 as my basis, since I eventually want to include everything that is present in XHTML 1.1. My DTD is here and my Document Model Module is here. My test page is here. When I attempt to validate, for some reason, the validator keeps failing to identify this as a form of XML. I am not sure why. I was wondering if it is because of something I did, in which case, what? Or if it is because of the validator. Here is a link to the validator page. Any insight here would be helpful. ~Viz Edit: I figured out part of the problem is that the page should have been served as application/xhtml+xml but was being served as text/html. I have fixed this problem, but it still refuses to validate. After looking into some bug reports on the validator, namely Bug 22 it seems to be a problem with the validator. However, if someone could check anyway and make sure that the problem isn't something stupid I left out, I would appreciate it. Also, for some reason it seems to be picking up the XMLSchema-instance namespace as well as the XHTML namespace. If anyone can figure out why this is I would appreciate it.

The whole purpose in using an iframe is to add functionality to an AJAX application. Using ajax to create something like an iframe prevents any added functionality by limiting all the functionality to things that can be accomplished with AJAX. So, although it could work in creating iframes, it would not be feasible for the needed functionality. And I think, looking at the XHTML 1.1 DTD, that it might be pretty easy to add to it the IFrame Module (which is already defined by the way). The only problem I can forsee is if the XHTML DOM does not establish rules for iframes, in which case I need to figure out what to add to define rules for where iframes can appear in the DOM. ~Viz

Okay, first of all, I let me explain what I want to know.XHTML 1.1 does not include the IFrame Module, which means putting an iframe into an XHTML 1.1 page will cause errors in validation. Now, I know from the Modularization of XHTML Specification that it is possible to create a DTD that contains all of the modules of XHTML 1.1 as well as the IFrame module. However, after reading through said specification, I am unsure of exactly how to go about a) writing a DTD like that and using a DTD like that. So I need to know how to make and use DTDs that include various modules from the Modularization of XHTML Specification.Now, the reason I want to use iframes is because of a little AJAX trick. Firefox and various other browsers register changes in iframes with the history, so you can navigate through the changes in the iframes with the back and forward buttons. This means that using some javascript and a series of iframes, it is possible to register different pieces of information retrieved with AJAX with the browser's history. Google Maps uses this trick.It would be great if I could use objects instead of iframes to do the same trick, but there are two problems.1) objects are completely broken in IE2) Changing the data of an object doesn't cause it to automatically reload in Firefox.I can deal with my site being broken in IE, if need be. But in order to use objects, I need to know how to cause Firefox to reevaluate the data. So that would also be a good answer to the question posed in this post. I have seen one method of reloading objects that clones objects with new data and replaces, but that doesn't work. In order to register with the history, I believe it must be the same object. But since I can't get Firefox to reload, I don't even know if that will register with the history.So once again, what I'd really like to know is, how can I use Modularization of XHTML to mix the IFrame Module and the other modules in XHTML 1.1?~Viz

That's right, I forgot about WINE. WINE (WINE Is Not an Emulator) is an application for Linux that provides a registry and drive structure that Windows programs need. It also provides translation from things like DirectX and the Windows API into Linux APIs and OpenGL. Some programs work well with it, others don't. If you are interested, WineHQ. ~Viz

This is awesome M^E, although since I rarely remember that search bar exists, I won't be trying it out. Are you still putting any work into other plugins, such as the credits plugin you made once that would eventually on completion report your credits at the bottom of the window on the status bar?~Viz

In your control panel, on the main page, on the left, is a box containing information about the server, such as versions of MYSQL, PHP, and PERL. Among this information is the path to PERL. It is possible to create a CGI bin, in fact, I believe there already is one. But you also need to know the path to PERL for your scripts to work.~Viz

Firefox: Yes.AIM: Sort of.AOL Instant Messenger 6.0 (The newest one) is a Windows only program. There is a Linux version, but it is at version 1.5, and I think it is missing a lot of features. There are other programs, however, such as GAIM, that allow you to communicate using the AIM protocol.Adobe:Any you purchased for Windows will not install on Linux. Most Adobe programs, such as the Studio Suite, are only for Windows and Mac. I do not know if others have Linux versions. However, there are several programs for Linux that provide similar or the same functionality. For example, instead of Photoshop, I use GIMP.~Viz

I am taking a class for school which is project based, and we can work in any language we want. So I thought it would be fun to work in C#. The stipulation, however, is that the professor needs to be able to compile the source code, and he uses Gentoo. So naturally, I turn to Mono. When I looked for a release for Gentoo, two releases caught my eye. The first is the Source code release, which would then need to be built. The second is the Linux x86 installer. I was wondering if people have tried these two releases, and which they found to be easier. Also, if anyone has used Mono on C# and could provide a little insight, that would be great. I have to request that the school install Mono on the machine the professor uses, and it would help if I could provide them with instructions.~Viz

As the above people said, the problem is just minor typos in your code.T_STRING stands for (I believe) Text String, which means a string of random text, as opposed to code. Parse Error means that the parser, which runs before the compiler to replace variable names and things like that, didn't understand what you wanted to happen. And please, when providing an error message, please provide the entire message (for instance, the line number, which you left out in the initial post). and if the line number is given, place line numbers in the provided code so we don't have to ask which line of code is that line.~Viz

Does anyone know if OpenGL support is or isn't in the current betas of Vista? I haven't had a chance to test it with my beta. Actually, that's not exactly true, haven't made the chance.~Viz

There is also a hotfix that is required. It is a two stage operation to get the hibernate button to appear.1) Install the hotfix, which it looks like you haven't done.2) Set the registry key, which it sounds like you have done.I won't tell you where to find the hotfix, as mentioned previously, although it is theoretically possible to get from Microsoft.com, although not easily.~Viz

It should also be possible to have your own sever try and ping the other nameservers. If it can find them, it can simply forward the data, or send no response to the ping, so that the machine looking for the site will go with another nameserver. If your server can't reach the proper site through the proper nameservers, then it can send the appropriate data to point to the backup site. At least, from what I know of networking, that is theoretically possible. I have no idea how to go about doing it, though. ~Viz

This page has a list of all the AMD Sempron 2800+ models. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Down at the bottom, it lists 5 different models. If you can match the model number (OPN PIB) to one of those five, you can check if it has 64bit support by clicking the view details link and looking for 32/64 under Operating Mode. If it has the /64 then it has 64bit support, otherwise it is only 32bit. ~Viz

You mention the code insert.php This seems to be the problem piece of code, but you have not provided us with any of the code from that file. Without any code to work on, we can only offer uneducated guesses, which can be as harmful as helpful. Perhaps if you provided the code, or at least the significant portions of the code.~Viz
