  1. Yeah, I learned shift-delete a while ago, when I tried using Linux. I found that pressing delete doesn't do what it does in Windows (I forgot what Linux actually does when delete is pressed). So I right clicked and found that the short-cut was Shift-Delete.
  2. I think Omega is better than Beta. I am kinda a camper, but I still think Omega made the game more fair with the controlled weapon "availability" thing. I've played Kings of Chaos before, and I think it just sucked.
  3. I figured it out: [spoil]There are 2 solutions: | 8 9 5 | 6 2 7 | 4 3 1 | 1 2 7 | 4 3 9 | 6 5 8 | 6 4 3 | 8 5 1 | 9 2 7 z------------------------- | 2 6 8 | 7 9 5 | 1 4 3 | 3 5 1 | 2 4 6 | 8 7 9 | 4 7 9 | 1 8 3 | 2 6 5 ------------------------- | 5 1 4 | 3 6 8 | 7 9 2 | 9 8 6 | 5 7 2 | 3 1 4 | 7 3 2 | 9 1 4 | 5 8 6 or | 8 9 5 | 6 2 7 | 4 3 1 | 1 2 7 | 9 3 4 | 6 5 8 | 6 4 3 | 8 5 1 | 9 2 7 z------------------------- | 2 6 8 | 7 9 5 | 1 4 3 | 3 5 1 | 2 4 6 | 8 7 9 | 4 7 9 | 1 8 3 | 2 6 5 ------------------------- | 5 1 4 | 3 6 8 | 7 9 2 | 9 8 6 | 5 7 2 | 3 1 4 | 7 3 2 | 4 1 9 | 5 8 6 [/spoil] dhanesh, the point of this game is to get every number from 1-9 in every row, column and box. This is one box --------- | 1 2 3 | | 4 5 6 | | 7 8 9 | --------- You cannot have 2 same numbers in the same box, row or column. The box above does not violate any rules, since numbers 1-9 are all in there. However, the following set of boxes do not work. --------- | 3 7 2 | | 6 4 5 | | 1 9 8 | ----------------- | 1 2 3 | 4 5 8 | | 4 5 6 | 7 3 8 | | 7 8 9 | 9 1 2 | ----------------- This set of boxes has 3 problems: 1. There are two 1's in the same column 2. There are two 9's in the same row 3. There are two 8's in the same box Everything else is fine. So, if you have followed the rules and completed the whole puzzle, you... "win".
  4. I don't think that is a very good idea. If gmail is somehow wrong about the virus, or if you do want to download the virus (maybe to test if it works? ), you wouldn't be able to download the virus. I think they should make multiple confirm screens to scare off the people who are not sure about downloading viruses, but still let the experts download them.
  5. I just read the posts at MozillaZine, and I found out that RC3, the one I'm using right now, is the same as 1.5. That's why Firefox wasn't detecting the auto-update.ms^e, I've been writing an extension too, but like always, I got bored and stopped working on it. I started it during the summer, and I may continue working on it in the future. It's a tool mainly to search Xisto, but also includes other things like games to play while your page loads (I got this idea during the time when Xisto had a slow loading time, but I guess it's not applicable anymore. Well, maybe dial-up users can use this feature), and Xisto's stats (I don't know what I meant by that - I wrote it in my extension's changelog, but I don't remember what I was thinking about). Have you coded any extensions before? Or did you want to make your first extension out of curiosity?
  6. Still waiting for the auto-update to detect it...abhiram, the reason the startup time decreased may have been that some extensions are disabled, so your Firefox takes less memory to start and to run.
  7. Mozilla just released the second major release of their Firefox browser yesterday. It's now a final release, instead of release candidates. Firefox will now support SVG, so it'd be fun to try working with that. I'm using Firefox RC3, so I'm waiting for the automatic update to come (possibly this afternoon?). If you don't have Deer Park Alpha 1 or over, you'll have to download it manually from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/, but then, for future updates, you won't have to download the whole package anymore, because you'll have the automatic update feature. See MozillaZine's news about this.
  8. That is not called an alt text. You should use the "title" attribute to make a roll-over tooltip text thing. For example: <a href="somepage.htm" title="Click to see this page!!!">Somepage</a> Would give you a link that says "Somepage". It links to somepage.htm. When you roll over it, it would show a little box saying "Click to see this page!!!" (Of course, without quotes). The alt attribute displaying a tooltip text is just a bug in Internet Explorer. If you want the tooltip to show up on almost any browser, like Firefox and Netscape, you would have to use the standard one, title.
  9. That weird line you saw was a feature that google put in to give you answers to your questions quickly. It's kind of like the Encarta feature in MSN's search. I think that google goes through all of its indexed pages and search for keywords that seem like a definition, then store the phrase and its definition in a large database. (for example, the word "japan official language" would have a definition of "Japanese" in some sites) When ms^e searched for "belgium language", google thought that he was asking a question, and used its answers database to answer it.I think the photography thing was an error in trying to interpret the website. Maybe the website once said "There are 2 photographs online", and google thought it was a definition to "photograph online". Then, when you search photography and online, it would give you the answer. That's my theory.
  10. Hmm, I don't get it. Was it just a booth at the airport where travelers can try out their services? What would be the point of that? Can't the people just try it themselves with their computer? And why did they call it Google "Space"? It doesn't have anything to do with space.
  11. OK, mastercomputers, I'll do that until I can find a better solution (if I will ever find one)... Do you know any small program or any extension for Dreamweaver that can do that automatically?
  12. I don't know what the buttons in the top left corner are. Is there a manual or tutorial for using this?How many submissions are allowed per person? Only 1?
  13. I wasn't sure, since ms^e said this: If mods are going to be judges, they may not be able to participate.
  14. saint-michael: Thank you, but I don't think the first link is what I was looking for. It was about IE's margin problems, while what I'm experiencing is a problem in IE's rendering of spaces. I have read the second link before, but the given solutions didn't work for me.vizskywalker: Hmm, the pre tag gave me a whole blank row after each list item, even in Firefox.clagnol: Again, it's a problem in IE's rendering of whitespaces, so changing the margin or padding (I assume that's what you're talking about) wouldn't help. I don't like browser detection, since it can be buggy sometimes. Opera identifies itself as IE, even though it may not have the same bugs as IE.
  15. Heh, this topic was started in the begining of November, and now, almost 1 month later, people are starting to respond.Are mods allowed to participate in this? If they can, I may try to design one. I may not have the patience, though, and I might get bored half-way through...
  16. Hmm, I've never heard of a whitespace tag, nor can I find it on Google. Are you sure that exists in HTML/XHTML?BTW, I'm trying to follow web standards in my site, so I don't want to use solutions that are non-standard. However, if you think the solution is the best one, I may try to work it into my site.
  17. When you want to turn a link into a button, you can use css to make it display: block, which makes an anchor clickable anywhere in the box around it. But when the anchor is inside an unordered list like this: <ul><li> <a href="hello.htm">sdsdf</a></li></ul>Internet Explorer would parse the carriage return after the <li> as a whitespace, and would add an extra gap around the <a>. The only certain way I know of is to remove every return in the code, like this: <ul><li><a href="hello.htm">sdsdf</a></li></ul>But that would make the code too hard to read. That's why I'm looking for an alternate solution that would work at least most of the time.
  18. const, did you actually click on the link? This topic was a joke, and the picture was the punch line. Or are you joking too, but I'm just not getting it?
  19. Anyone know of the IE whitespace bug that occurs when you apply display: block; to an <a> element inside a <ul> element? I'm trying to create a side navigation menu that involves links inside lists, and I can't fix the bug... I have searched for many solutions, but none have worked for me. Anyone know why the workarounds work sometimes but not at other times?
  20. Hahahahaha (and it goes on for a long time)... I wasn't expecting that. It's waaay past April Fools.
  21. Holy crap... I didn't know Windows had this. Except I don't really know how to use it... This isn't as intuitive as other Windows programs.
  22. Fly: He goes around claping his hands (and trying to fly?) Eat a worm: He does the worm instead. Still interesting.
  23. Umm... Sorry if I'm being rude, but didn't you guys read the first line of the tutorial?
  24. Hmmm... I wonder if having an IE theme would make it run like IE and crash my computer 6 websites later... ;)It looks almost identical to IE in the screenshot. I want to know how it would look with multiple tabs.
  25. The word I gave you was the kanji of the word "cat" in japanese. The japanese use a lot of kanji's in their language. Most of them are very similar to Chinese words, because they originally taken from Chinese. "Cat" is pronounced as "neko" in romaji, or ねこ in hiragana. Most dictionaries do not translate an English word to the pronounciation of a Japanese word (It's like an English translator wouldn't translate "dictionary" in another language as "dik sion neh ree"), and that's why you couldn't find if "neko" is correct. You can try finding the pronounciation of 猫 instead. (if you saw a messed up word in my last sentence, that means you don't have Japanese fonts installed)
