• game-maniac Annoying issue with unpacking the Data Warehouse package

  I've spent the last 15 minutes trying to lock down what I feel is a rather annoying bug in the product. I'm attempting to set up a simulated production environment, where I have seperate machines running SQL, Commerce Server, Active Directory, et al. While attempting to unpackage the data warehouse on one of my web servers, I got the following error: "Invalid Connection Information for OLAP Server" According to an earlier newsgroup posting, I need to install SQL Server Analysis Services on my web server to fix this issue, and then remove SQL Server from my web server once I roll out the data warehouse. While I agree that this isn't the most serious issue (and a quick google search has solved my problem), this seems like som ...Show All

• DonaldM IE 7 - scrolling jumps

  Is there a default setting I can change in IE7 that will stop the jumping when I try to scroll using a mouse wheel It's almost as bad as what I see when I'm connected remotely to another machine. Thanks, R. Hill Well, I guess I won't be downloading the new release because I can't stand the scrolling either. Have you tried reinstalling your mouse software and see if that solves the problem Thanks for letting me know that it's still doing it. I phoned Microsoft and they said that the IE7 version (not beta) will be available on the 18th of this month - this Wednesday. I went back to IE6 until then. They said all the bugs should be worked out by then for the new version. Also she said to reinsta ...Show All

  Hi, I am using WDS 3.0 Beta 2 I have manually selected folder locations to index on my local hard drive, however, the list of files I selected keep dissappearing when I next go back into WDS options.

• kissii Is it possible to change url in DISPID_BEFORENAVIGATE2 handler?

  Is it possible to change url in DISPID_BEFORENAVIGATE2 handler I tried but can' get result till now. Thank you. You should be able to set the cancel argument in BeforeNavigate2 to TRUE and then initiate another navigation win Navigate2. Ex: check to see if URL contains the query info, and save the data. Then, set cancel to true and navigate to the URL without the info. -Reza to be precise, navigation to res://ieframe.dll/navcancl.htm appears when opening new tab or window. There is no such navigation when opening page in the same window\tab . Why Can i avoid it when page loads in new tab\window or can i use IWebBrowser2::Stop ...Show All

• Nitin Khurana Search Failed

  When using the Search functionality with the Starter Site I am generating an error. I have added a custom property to the Product List - which works fine when I go through the built in navigation. I have also added the property in the propertiesToReturn parameter of web.config. So, I don't think the problem lies there as well as the error seems to state some type of join error.

• EnigMa_AnGeL Zune Battery Life

  I was on the phone with Microsoft Tech Support today for the Zune skipping issue and he mentioned to me that my Zune battery will last alot longer if I charge it with the USB ports on the back of my PC versus the USB ports on the front. This doesn't make much sense to me as I kinda figured that when the battery is full it's full regardless of how it was re-charged. Does anyone know anything regarding this Same problem i got. I dont know what is the battery life span of the Zune! I check the document included in the box of the Zune. I think they didnt set what is the battery life span. :( in response to the guy that hooked up his zune to see it hung in stasis with the charging screen staring ...Show All

• Eirian IE6, IE7 resizing bug with position:relative floats and percentage margin values

  Demonstration: http://futurama.googlepages.com/ie_bug.html Notice what happens when you resize the page. If the bug is present, then the black DIVs at the corners of the container DIV will not reposition correctly (or at all!) as the page is resized. The "way" the page is resized (how fast the resize handles on the window are dragged and dropped, etc) will influence how this bug affects page layout. Reloading the page, changing the page zoom (in IE7), or changing the text size seems to cause the positioning to be correct again. The following conditions trigger the bug: The margin-left and/or margin-right for <body> is a percentage value. A container element (such as a DIV) with any defined width (does not mat ...Show All

• newgreen Help writing an extension for IE

  Hi everyone, This is my first post. I will be thankful for any ideas. I was wondering if there is a tutorial somewhere, that teaches you how to write IE extension that changes the content of a page. I have written Firefox extension before that manipulates specific texts within a page, but i don't know what is the procedure for IE in general.

• Weavor Microsoft and its 'new' Halo: Wars RTS Game, and Derelict Studios

  Well, as most have probably heard, Microsoft has come out with a 'new' Real Time Strategy game called Halo: Wars, a game to be made for the X-Box 360. I quote 'new', because it is not a new idea, nor shall all the credit go to those people who work in Microsoft. A Modification for the game C&C Generals, called Halogen, was a mod in the works for approximatly 3 years, where people from the community pitched in numerous hours of work and labour for the good of the  community, and a playable release was soon to come for those of us desperate to download it. Microsoft came in close to before the release and forced the memebers of Derelict Studios to close down Halogen and halt all progress on the game, and close down the ...Show All

• Michell Cronberg Extending catalog search, best practise?

  I'm currently working on a project in cs2007 starter site where I need to extend the catalog search. What I need to accomplish is that when a catalog search has been performed I would like to present a number of filter dropdown-controls based on the searchible properties of the products in the search result, to give the user the ability to filter the search.

What is the best way to tackle the problem How can I generate the dropdown-controls for the filter based on the search result Regards, Johan. Hello Colin, Thank you for your answer.

• bjkaledas Javascript Console

  Hi just wondering if IE7 has a feature like 'Javascript console' for firefox. I have an annoying error in my webpages and the error is "error: syntax error". So I can't really debug. So if you know of an add-on or its already in IE& then let me know asap. p.s. the error does now show up in firefox. While IE doesn't have a Javascript console like the one you mentioned, there are some alternatives you can download and install. You should be able to locate the error manually, though. When you load a page containing a script error, there's usually an icon that appears in the lower left corner of the browser window. (The icon shows an American yield signing containing an exclamation point; the sign overlays a blank page ...Show All
