• Internet Explorer Development JavaScript Detect browser close IE 7

  We have an application that logs into a system, we need to trap when a user may close the browser with the (X). In IE6 we can do this succesfully with the following code In body tag onUnload = "handleBrowserClose();" function handleBrowserClose() { if (screenTop > 9999) { //handle logout event } } Unfortunetly since IE7 the screenTop now actually contains the actually value of the top position. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this in IE7 or a different way to trap that a user clicks the (X) button to close IE7 I am not the author of the timeout method, but to answer your "timeout javascript" question, here is an example (form here : http://www.htmlite.com ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions This File Is Potentially Harmful....

• Visual C# Passing an inherited class as 'T' to a generic container.

  I'm having trouble finding out how to use a general purpose generic container I wrote as a member of another class which wants to hold any class type based on a common base class. The first set of code below shows 4 seperate classes, RNode is a generic class, TreeControl has an RNode<TreeItemBase> member, and a "Root" property to access it, TreeItemBase is a control (not really important to this), and TreeItemHeader is derived from TreeIItemBase...

• .NET Development Return argument has an invalid type - security issue?

  Hi, We have a .NET remoting application server, which works great by itself. We are currently evaluating a commerical automated testing tool, that loads the application server's API assembly and simulates a client connection to the server. However, under this scenario the proxy object does not succeed in dealing with complex objects, and we get the "Return argument has an invalid type" error in return. We figured it has something to do with security issues but couldn't find any solution. We are using a tcp binary channel with typeFilterLevel=Full. The interface for the complex object AND the complex object itself are defined in a separate assembly (ApplicationServer) then the API (ApplicationSeverAPI). Thanks, Ron ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. First Person Perspective

  Can anyone explain how I could modify the 3D Tutorial so that I can control the spaceship from a FPS view. Currently the tutorial allows you to control the ship and move it left right etc. But how would I simulate being inside the ship I hope this makes sense. You can just change where the control is moving the ship. Change it to move the camera instead.

• Visual Basic Array of Objects

  I have a class, say Detail(Name,Address). I want to declare an array of objects for the class Detail. I am doing it as follows: dim i as integer=10 Dim MyArray() as Detail=New Detail(i){} Now when I try to access any array elements as: MyArray(0).Name it generates a 'Object Reference Not Set to an instance of object' exception. Why is it that the objects are not being allocated memory when I am declaring the object array with new keyword dim i as integer=10 Dim MyArray() as Detail=New Detail(i){} is equivalent to Dim myarray(i) As Detail Normally you would put the initial contents of your array between the curly brackets { }. However, you would then come across another problem because once you d ...Show All

• SQL Server MS Access Memo field to SQL Server text field

  Hi all, i've a reasonable amount of experience with MS Access and less experience with SQL Server. I've just written an .NET application that uses an SQL Server database. I need to collate lots of data from around the company in the simplest way, that can then be loaded into the SQL Server database. I decided to collect the info in Excel because that's what most people know best and is the quickest to use. The idea being i could just copy and paste the records directly into the SQL Server database table (in the same format) using the SQL Server Management Studio, for example. Trouble is, i have a problem with line feed characters. If an Excel cell contains a chunk of text with line breaks (Chr(10) or Chr(13)) then ...Show All

  I am using Microsoft Expression Blend and Zam3D to generate enhanced user interface. I am facing two problems: 1) I want detailed resources about Blend (I have found good resources about using Zam3D including some long videos) but there is a lack of resources when we talk about Blend. 2) The next problem is somehow it seems that my Windows copy is illegal, and subsequently it is not enabling me to download it.

• .NET Development Replacing non-alphaNumeric Characters in a String

  Still having problems with my string manipulation(!) I have managed to reduce the string to the maximum of 15 chars (Thanks Wivvy). But before I do that, I need to take out unwanted characters. I have done the following and although I don't get an error, it doesn't actually seem to do anything with the string (apart from reduce the maxiumum length to 15 chars): get { // list of non AlphaNumeric characters to remove and remove these characters string removeChars = "!*-_ ():<> @"; m_newReference = m_reference.ToString().Trim(removeChars.ToCharArray()); // check that length is not over 15, if it is, remove extra characters if (m_newReference.ToString().Length > 15) { return m_newRef ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Which table in the TfsWarehouse db has the "Severity" field?

  If you open up the "Active Bugs" list in Tfs, you will see a combobox field named "Severity" that has four items in it - Critical, High, Low, and Medium. Which table in the database houses this field and what is the field name If the field is a foreign key, what table does it relate to Thanks for your help! Bo I don't have a configured machine in front of me at the moment but I believe Severity is not marked as being a reported field. So out-of-box it is not persisted in the reporting databases. You can use WitExport.exe and WitImport.exe to change the "reportability" of a field.
