If I recall correctly, there's a submit() function associated with forms. You could thus link (with an anchor tag) the image to java script:document.nameoftheform.submit() edit) ..except without the space between java and script, the tags keep putting it there

Would help to define a circle correctly And by the way, the proof that 0.999... = 1 does bring up a point Let ...999 = x (an infinite string of nines). 10x = ...9990 x - 10x = 9 x = -1 ... this forms the basis of integers in computing! (no, I doubt that, but it is a striking resemblance!)

I only re-install Windows when a virus forces me to. Which is rarely. And by rarely, I mean never...does that one time count when I upgraded Vista to XP?edit) Oh yeah, I don't see the benefits of re-installing. If it's for speed, msconfig and remove unwanted programs. defrag and disk cleanup every now and then, and uninstall old unused programs..

Not all Pay to Click/Read/Search/Survey/.. websites are scams. But there are probably a [expletive]-load of scam websites out there :)I managed to grab $13 off the internet once by doing random stuff like signing up for offers (my gmail peaked at about 17000 spam mails a month, it's down to about 5000 now, and one or two spam slips through every few days still..). I can assure you it was NOT worth my time (or credentials would be appropriate here, except for the fact that I used fake credentials and still managed to cash out)! Oh, and I probably should've had an alternate email for it =.=

I don't quite understand what you're asking. Clarification would be useful.Are you asking:a] How to create a flash header to fit inside a web templateb] How to edit a flash header with a given template inside Flash MXI'm guessing it's a], unless it's a] and there's a place-holder in the location..For b], you would just need to replace the text-boxes with what you want them to say, and then export it (ctrl-enter)...

The stress ball can leak? Which would mean it would have some form of liquid in it? Weird O_O Aren't they usually made of foam..?I've never felt the need to use a stress ball, but that's because I'm still young and don't really have anything to be stressed about yet So I can't really give any input on how effective stress balls are =\I do, however, like stress relievers that are shaped oddly, for example a brain-shaped stress reliever o_o

What do you mean? You need to write your own code for PHP, no editor is going to magically give you what you want.That said, I use notepad. I should really invest in a better text editor (I could increment that notepad, for example).

The Most Extensive Online Math Resource...ever! Wolfram MathWorld
Nabb replied to dimumurray's topic in General Discussion
Whoa, I found that website *ages* ago! That doesn't stop it being the best website for mathematics though. (even though I use Wikipedia mostly..)GeoGebra looks nice (the screenshots), even though it's only geometry - I might check that out some time soon. Thanks for the link! -
You might have been IP banned if you failed multiple log-in attempts. If so, submit a ticket to Xisto - Support.com.If you are IP banned, you won't be able to view any Xisto pages (from my experience) except the main pages and the forums. So if you, for example, try and visit nabb.trap17.com and it doesn't work, you know you've been IP banned.Just send a ticket at the link given earlier and they should be able to remove the ban - just make sure you don't enter your password wrong too much otherwise you'll need to send more tickets!edit) Oh wait.. it shouldn't be a problem once you've logged in once, because your browser should store your log-in details..

Games are for fun.Cheating in multiplayer games can stop them being fun for others, so you shouldn't do it.Cheating in single player games is generally acceptable unless it's done to obtain high scores on leaderboards and the likes. That's bad. Nothing wrong with cheating to make the game more fun though.

I don't have much experience in this area, but I think cavaj is good. Har har, it's java-c backwards.Also, do comments even stay in the code when you compile..? Unless you mean something else =\

School's Blocking System. Its not the smartest of things
Nabb replied to Blue Lightning's topic in General Discussion
You should see my school's internet - There's a certain word that allows any page! You simply need the word somewhere in the url and the page can be accessed :)The word is 'smith' by the way. But I doubt it would work for any other schools. (e.g. vtunnel.com?smith would make the website usable! Well you don't even need to use vtunnel at my school if you know the trick (which I independently discovered)) -
Have you actually created the hosting account? Submitting the free web hosting request merely allows you the ability to create the hosting account, but doesn't actually create it.If you haven't yet, go to Xisto.com/process to create the account.If you already did, the username and password should be the ones you put in the web hosting account activation form.

And to think that folding@home is running only about two and a half times the speed of the single super-computer =.=That is one super-fast super-computer.

Just a hack I've made in the past. I think I disabled the Game Over pop-up sometime as well, except I didn't write it down anywhere. Disable Flashing in FreeCell Windows FreeCell flashes the window whenever your available moves is equal to one. If you find the flashing annoying like me, this hack will banish it to the dark realms. (Wikipedia says Vista FreeCell doesn't flash the screen anymore!) The guide: We only need one download to get this working: Any generic hex editor (I'll use xvi32). Download is here: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Boot up XVI32.exe, and open the file at location C:\WINDOWS\system32\freecell.exe. Hit Ctrl-R for find and replace. You want to search for 0F847B010000 (hex string) This is to be replaced with 909090909090 (also hex string) Save. (You can either replace the original freecell.exe or use Save As.. to create a copy.) Play! The annoying flashing should be gone now! If you want to revert the change at a later date, simply replace in the other direction (i.e. 9090... to 0F84...) ..how? When we replace the hex string, we are replacing it with a bunch of NOPs (90 in hex). These are instructions to do nothing. We are simply overriding the conditional statement [jump to a flash screen routine if one move left] with [do nothing]. Thanks for reading, Nab.

I'm a user on Project Euler - I find it to be a great site! I haven't done much on recent questions though (last 50 or so).. There's some great questions in there, with some nice interesting mathematics (well I suppose it's only interesting it you're into mathematics =.=). The questions do get extremely complicated at times and it requires some good brain-power to reduce O(e^n) to something like O(n) (which is definitely useful when n = 1000)... An example: (actually this one you can do, if I recall correctly, on pen and paper!... without writing out the ~5*1018 terms...) edit) I'm bad at big O notation

Speedtest - How Fast Do You Think Your Network Is ISP Battle Royal
Nabb replied to Kubi's topic in Computer Networks
Keep in mind the differences in meaning of b and B. b is generally bit, B is generally byte (iirc). Speedtest.net returns values in kilobits by default, and your provider is probably 8 megabits/s (=1MB/s). -
Speedtest - How Fast Do You Think Your Network Is ISP Battle Royal
Nabb replied to Kubi's topic in Computer Networks
On this slow computer: On that computer *points left*: Can't beat Kubi I'm on a 24 megabits/s connection, that can get up to about 1.9 megabytes/s with parallel connections.. -
Did you mean accelerating upwards at 9.8ms-2? Spontaneous human combustion awaits!!.. oh wait that guy up there already responded to that >_< This whole flat earth thing is outrageous. Last I checked, the earth was a torus!

If you do that one, make sure there's a window open when you do it (My Documents for example), and they'll never be able to close it

Just a note, having a website made completely in Flash isn't going to be helpful for search engines. It's also going to annoy 2% of internet users...swf's (compiled Flash files) are generally small, as art is done with vector graphics and not bitmaps (unless you put in music, although I suggest that you embed music separately if you wish for such). Animated .gif's are generally quite large from my experience, I'm not sure how compression works but a heap of bitmaps is definitely going to be less efficient than vector graphics.As an example, a 15x15 grid of hexagons (just an example, I don't expect this to be your background) is over ten times larger as a .gif/.png than as a .swf (drawn by maths - just a file I had lying around, and it can draw up to 50x50..). Also, the compression for the .gif makes it look somewhat ugly =.=This balance obviously changes with smaller and more complex images though..
