I'm trying to understand the process for enabling an a core extension (dom) in php. When I run phpinfo, I see '--disable-dom' in the configure command. Am I supposed to re-install PHP?
Is there a shell extension for Windows Explorer that is optimized for SharePoint libraries. Expected features are:

Displaying document version history
I'm looking for a Firefox add-on that can detect or monitor a webpage for certain text or words and redirect to another predetermined page if found.
So basically, when someone surfs the web, and they stumble upon a site that contains a particular text or phrase, such as "enemy", the extension will pick up on that and redirect to another page, say example.com.
I'm trying to get my program to automatically associate certain file extensions to be opened by it but I'm not sure how to do that in MacOSX. I'm not asking how to associate a program with a file extension in the GUI, I want to be able to program it into my program.
Does anyone found a firefox extension that can monitor for a certain text on a page, and then redirect it to other predetermined page.
I'm still searching for it, but still no clues.
I run a cron job that requests a snapshot from a remote webcam at a local address:
wget http://user:[email protected]/snapshot.cgi
This creates the files snapshot.cgi, snapshot.cgi.1, snapshot.cgi.2, each time it's run.
My desired result would be for the file to be named similar to file.1.jpg, file.2.jpg. Basically, sequentially or date/time named files with the correct file extension instead of .cgi.
Any ideas?
Batch-program launchs with 1 parameter (full path to file)
program.cmd "C:\Path\To\File\Filename.txt"
Now, this program consists of 1 command:
echo %1
And it just prints an argument: C:\Path\To\File\Filename.txt for the upper example.
But I want it to print an argument (full path) with another extension, e.g. .exe. For the upper example, I want it to print C:\Path\To\File\Filename.exe.
How to make it do that?
Due to my neat coding style, my pages take up like 30% more space on both my server and the output HTML.
Is there any free extension for Dreamweaver to automatically optimize my pages when uploading them? I mean not only HTML, but also PHP, CSS and JS...
Actually, removing unnecessary tabs, spaces and new lines will just do the trick.
After removing the unnecessary spaces, tabs and new lines from my PHP code, the page loaded three times faster so this is important...
Is there any google chrome extension that lets you manage other extensions?So that you can disable and enable them by just one click
Because I have many extensions installed in my chrome browser but I do not use them everytime. So I disable them, then enable them later using the bookmark with this address:

i try to temporarely edit/add code to an existing web page in the internet, not a local one
Thanks

The RFC seems to suggest that the client should permanently cache the response:
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html
10.3.2 301 Moved Permanently
The requested resource has been
assigned a new permanent URI and any
future references to this resource
SHOULD use one of the returned URIs.
Clients with link editing capabilities
ought to automatically re-link
references to the Request-URI to one
or more of the new references returned
by the server, where possible. This
response is cacheable unless indicated
otherwise.
The new permanent URI SHOULD be given
by the Location field in the response.
Unless the request method was HEAD,
the entity of the response SHOULD
contain a short hypertext note with a
hyperlink to the new URI(s).
If the 301 status code is received in
response to a request other than GET
or HEAD, the user agent MUST NOT
automatically redirect the request
unless it can be confirmed by the
user, since this might change the
conditions under which the request was
issued.
Note: When automatically redirecting a POST request after
receiving a 301 status code, some existing HTTP/1.0 user agents
will erroneously change it into a GET request.
I'm having a hard time finding concrete browser documentation for any major browser that states how they handle these.
I've started digging through the source code of firefox, but quickly got lost.
Is the following scenario true for which (if any) browsers, and is there definitive documentation for either Firefox or IE that states as much?:
First Time Around:
1.1: User enters link to site A, or clicks on a link directed at Site A
1.2: Browser interprets link at Site A, first time, no cache. Sends GET to Site A.
1.2: Site A responds with 301 Redirect to Site B
1.3: Browser sends GET to Site B.
Any Subsequent Times Around:
2.2: User clicks on a link directed at Site A
2.2: Browser sees that, due to a past 301 redirect, Site A should now be Site B.
2.3: Without initiating any request whatsoever at Site A, browser initiates GET at Site B.
1. What exactly is the security risk with popups?
The new browsers provide settings to block window popups (on blocking, sites with active popups display a message to user). What exactly is the security risk with popups? If allowing popups can execute something dangerous, then the main window can too. Is it not the case. I think I don't know about some special powers of window popups.
2. Any special features of popup windows?
Take for example the HDFC bank netbanking site. The entire netbanking session happens in a new window popup and a user neither manually edit the URL or paste the URL in the main browser window. it does not work. Is a popup window needed for this feature? Does it improve security? (Asking because everything that is there in this site revolves around security - so they must have done that for a reason too). Why otherwise they would implement the entire netbanking on a popup window?
3. Is it possible to override browser's popup blocking settings
Lastly, the HDFC site succcessfully displays popup window even when in the browser settings popups are blocked. So, how do they do it? Is that a browser hack?
To see this -
go to http://hdfcbank.com/
Under the "Login to your account" section select "HDFC Bank NetBanking" and click the "Login" button.
You can verify that even if popups are blocked/popup blocker is enabled in the browser settings, this site is able to display popups.
The answers to this question say that it is not possible to display popup windows if it has been blocked in browser settings.

Opera has just released the first stable version of their revamped browser and will be proceeding at a rapid pace going forward. There is also news concerning the three development streams they will maintain along with news of an update for the older 12.x series for those who are not ready to update to 15.x just yet. The day is full of good news for Opera users whether they have already switched to the new Blink/Webkit Engine version or are still using the older Presto Engine version. First, news of the new development streams… Opera has released details outlining their three new release streams: Opera (Stable) – Released every couple of weeks, this is the most solid version, ready for mission-critical daily use. Opera Next – Updated more frequently than Stable, this is the feature-complete candidate for the Stable version. While it should be ready for daily use, you can expect some bugs there. Opera Developer – A bleeding edge version, you can expect a lot of fancy stuff there; however, some nasty bugs might also appear from time to time. From the Opera Desktop Team blog post: When you install Opera from a particular stream, your installation will stick to it, so Opera Stable will be always updated to Opera Stable, Opera Next to Opera Next and so on. You can choose for yourself which stream is the best for you. You can even follow a couple of them at the same time! Of particular interest is the announcement of continued development for the 12.x series. A new version (12.16) is due to be released soon to help keep the older series up to date and secure while the transition process from 12.x to 15.x continues.
Today, Firefox 5 was released. If all goes according to plan, Firefox 7 will be out by the end of the year. Firefox has adopted the Google Chrome development model wherein version numbers are largely unimportant and so just supporting "the latest (publicly available) one" is probably the best strategy.
But how do you best test that? As my QA guys have pointed out, if you tell the client that you support "the latest version" but a version comes out that breaks your site, then you have a problem because now you've stated you support a web browser you don't. And since both Firefox and Chrome now update themselves automatically, the average person probably has no clue or care what version they're running. And having them either not upgrade or roll back is nontrivial.
I'm finding there are a number of organizations that mandate their employees use IE (the head of IT subscribes to the Microsoft school of thought), or mandate their employees use Firefox (the head of IT subscribes to the IE-is-insecure school of thought), so Chrome updating constantly was a non-issue. But now that Firefox is a member of that club, I can see this becoming a bigger issue soon.
My guess, in the case of Firefox, would be that the Aurora channel is the key, but what is the best way to approach testing it? Should we fix anything that comes up as an issue in Aurora, or should we wait until closer to the scheduled release? Do people automate this sort of thing?
I am in the phase of designing a mmo browser based game (certainly not massive, but all connected players are in the same universe), and I am struggling with finding a good solution to the problem of distributing players across processes.
I'm using node.js with socket.io.
I have read this helpful article, but I would like some advice since I am also concerned with different processes.
Solution 1:
Tie a process to a map location (like a map-cell), connect players to the process corresponding to their location. When a player performs an action, transmit it to all other players in this process. When a player moves away, he will eventually have to connect to another process (automatically).
Pros:
Easier to implement
Cons:
Must divide map into zones
Player reconnection when moving into a different zone is probably annoying
If one zone/process is always busy (has players in it), it doesn't really load-balance, unless I split the zone which may not be always viable
There shouldn't be any visible borders
Solution 1b:
Same as 1, but connect processes of bordering cells, so that players on the other side of the border are visible and such. Maybe even let them interact.
Solution 2:
Spawn processes on demand, unrelated to a location. Have one special process to keep track of all connected player handles, their location, and the process they're connected to. Then when a player performs an action, the process finds all other nearby players (from the special player-process-location tracking node), and instructs their matching processes to relay the action.
Pros:
Easy load balancing: spawn more processes
Avoids player reconnecting / borders between zones
Cons:
Harder to implement and test
Additional steps of finding players, and relaying event/action to another process
If the player-location-process tracking process fails, all other fail too
I would like to hear if I'm missing something, or completely off track.
Oracle SQL Developer by default automatically opens the object editor when you click on an object in your connection tree or schema browser. For most folks this is very convenient. But if you are selecting objects to drag them to a model or to the worksheet, this can get annoying as the focus of the screen changes when you don’t want it to.
The other scenario this feature might disrupt more than delight is when you want to click around the database in the tree and every time you click on an object, the object editor automatically changes to the selected object.
You can disable this automatic browsing behavior in SQL Developer by modifying this preference:
Tools Preferences Database ObjectViewer Open Object on Single Click
Disable this if you don’t want an object to open when you click on it
OK, I do realize my description of the problem may have confused the heck out of you just now. So instead of more words, how about a couple of animations of the object-click behavior with the option ON and OFF?
Preference Disabled
Click, no open. Double click, open.
Preference Enabled (Default)
As you click on objects, they are automatically opened
This is not meant to start a religio-technical browser war - I still prefer Chrome, at least for now, but:
Because of a perhaps Chrome-related problem with my web page (see https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?can=2&start=0&num=100&q=&colspec=ID%20Pri%20M%20Iteration%20ReleaseBlock%20Cr%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20OS%20Modified&groupby=&sort=&id=161473), I temporarily switched to IE (10) to see if it would also view the time value as invalid.
However, I didn't even get to that point - IE stopped me in my tracks before I could get there; but I found that IE was right - it is more particular/precise in validating my code. For example, I got this from IE:
SCRIPT5007: The value of the property '$' is null or undefined, not a Function object
...which was referring to this:
<script src="/CommonLogin/Scripts/jquery-1.9.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// body sometimes becomes white???? with jquery 1.6.1
$("body").css("background-color", "#405DA7");
<
This line is highlighted as the culprit:
$("body").css("background-color", "#405DA7");
jQuery is referenced right above it - so why did it consider "$" to be undefined, especially when Chrome had no problem with it...ah! I looked at that location (/CommonLogin/Scripts/) and saw that, sure enough, the version of jQuery there was actually jquery-1.6.2.min.js. I added the updated jQuery file (1.9.1) and it got past this.
So now the question is: why does Chrome ignore this? Does it download the referenced version from its own CDN if it can't find it in the place you specify?
IE did flag other errs after that, too; so I'm thinking perhaps IE is better at catching lurking problems than, at least, Chrome is. Haven't tested Firefox diesbzg yet.
I'm building a data-driven animation with HTML and javascript to run in a web browser. I would like to display it tiled across three 1080p monitors. This essentially yields a viewport that's 5760px wide and 1080px tall. Pretty large.
Does anyone have experience setting up something like this?
I have many questions below, but any tip would be appreciated:
Is it reasonable to expect a DOM to render into such a large viewport size at close to 60fps?
I might choose to use canvas, instead of SVG or HTML, but that would yield a giant canvas. Can a canvas with such high resolution be performant? Of course everything depends on the complexity of the graphics I want to render, but I'm looking to remove that factor from this question, so assume I'm asking about a canvas animation that can run at 60fps at 1920x1080 resolution. Would it run roughly as fast at 3 times the width?
Would three.js and WebGL be a more proper approach at that resolution?
How do you actually cause Chrome or FF to span 3 monitors at full screen? Do I need a 3rd party solution of any kind?
Thanks!
Before the upgrade, everything was working fine. Now, however, I can connect to the Internet but a lot of stuff fails, and the weirdest thing is that it happens with Firefox, Chromium and Opera. Some of the things that fail:
I can't log in to Stack Overflow, after entering user/pass it loads for a long time on Firefox and throws Error 408 (browser request timed out) on Chromium and Opera
I can't log in to Hotmail, similar symptoms
I can login to Facebook, but when I try to write a comment, or just post something in my wall, it stays loading for a long time, and then fails
The first two issues seem to be related to secure pages, and the second one is another issue altogether, I believe. However, they all happen with all browsers, which is really weird.
Talking about weird: I connect using a Huawei SmartAX MT 810 USB modem, which cost me blood and tears to get it working under Ubuntu. I ordered an ethernet modem/router with my ISP, and I'm still waiting, but this issue intrigues me anyway. Has anyone experienced this kind of problems? I Googled around, but couldn't find a similar case.

I just want to ask from web designers' point of view if it's wrong to not care about supporting Internet Explorer or older browsers.
The site I'm designing looks great in all browsers except IE9-. There are certain things that IE doesn't support or behave like other browsers; AJAX, JQuery, webkit stuff, some CSS styles, drop-and-drop files from OS etc etc, but it all works great in Safari, FireFox, Chrome etc.
Should I be that concerned? I know there are several people that use IE, but it's limitations have just been causing me more work by having to come up with workarounds. From what I've read, many of the issues I've been having should be solved with IE10, but not everybody keeps up to date. I know of several people who are still using IE6!
Again, I'm hoping this is the right place to ask a question like this, and if not, please point me to the right stack exchange site instead of just downvoting me.
