Principle says that works line audio, films and ebooks can always be copied somehow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by XPPaul ( talk • contribs) 00:48, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I'm creating a single HTML document ("ComboBKMK.html") with multiple iFrames, containing multiple separate HTML documents with links within. However, when I click a link in any iFrame, it opens in that specific iFrame instead of "in" ComboBKMK.html like any other non-iFrame'd link would. Is there any way to get it to use the ComboBKMK.html instead when clicking the links? -- Tohler ( talk) 00:54, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I have here a couple of cables with a USB Mini B connector on one end, perhaps a meter of wire, and two male 3.5mm TRS connectors on the other end. The TRS connector housing is colored pastel pink and green and labeled "MIC" and "SPK", respectively. What makes this truly bizarre is I have two of them and don't recall any application for them. Any idea what they're for? -- ke4roh ( talk) 01:00, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
Hmm, haven't done much tomfoolery with my system, but all of a sudden I end up getting crashes on Max upon starting it up. Even if I uninstall Max 2011, clean up registry entries, and downgrade to 2010, the error still shows up. The crash dump seems to have some references to the .NET Common Language Runtime, assemblies and other such stuff. As much as I would like to reinstall Windows I'm afraid I'm not that arsed enough due to the amount of work I had to do just to reconfigure things. Can anyone help me figure this thing out?

I'm having difficulty finding a guide or in fact any substantial information on the subject. I know that people have done it, and I also know it can't be *that* terribly hard or expensive to do. Could anyone give me some pointers?-- Newbiepedian ( Hailing Frequencies) 12:06, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
Is there any limitation or thing to consider when using the <script> tag to use javascript within the <body></body> tags of a html page? Can it be nested into form or table tags? Are there things that may not allow it to work correctly? Cambalachero ( talk) 14:21, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
Hello. Is it possible to tweak Internet Explorer 8 so, when I select a body of text and ask for a print preview, it automatically shows "as selected on screen"? Thanks in advance. -- Mayfare ( talk) 14:31, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I'm currently receiving a "No input file specified error". I really have no clue how does excatcly work. Though I will provide details
My current php configuration in nginx,conf is this
location ~ \.php$ { root html; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /scripts$fastcgi_script_name; include fastcgi_params; }
I got the nginx folder like this
*Nginx --nginx.exe -*html ---index.htm ---Example.php -*conf ---nginx.conf ---fastcgi.conf ---start-nginx.bat (The command for starting php-cgi is: start c:\nginx\php\php-cgi.exe -b 127.0.0.1:9000 -c c:\nginx\php\php.ini) -*php ---php-cgi.exe ---php.ini (I'm not putting all of the files of course)
I don't know why isn't working.. I'm hoping maybe you could help me. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.60.93.218 ( talk) 15:33, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

I've got a laptop that's running Windows 7. I would like to use the Linux OS Ubuntu. Would it be possible to run two operating systems on the same machine? If so, then how could I do it? I don't want an Ubuntu pop-up window. I would like a choice during boot-up, e.g. press 1 for Windows, press 2 for Linux. — Fly by Night ( talk) 18:28, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I have been working in a html page that runs the "Concentration" game. There's a grid of basic images (as turned cards, showing the back), all the same ones. Click on one card, it shows another image (as if turning a card and seeing the other side), click on another, it shows its own other side. If they are different, they show the basic image again in a pair of seconds. If they are the same, they stay that way, and the player gets a point (surely you know the rules of the game).
The page uses javascript to change the images back and forth, check if the pair selected is a pair of similar cards or not, what to do in each case, etc. For some reason, it worked in internet explorer 8, but not in firefox 11: each pair of cards I click, correct or incorrect, stay visible instead of showing the "back side" image again. Then, I noticed a detail: it DOES work in firefox, just not visually. If I click on a correct pair of cards I uncovered at different times, I get a point, so the page treats them as if they were covered cards. If I right-click to see the image info, it's not the name of the image I'm seeing, but the name of the image I should be seeing (the "back side" image).
Is there some known problem in firefox with javascript and this type of image switching, or in firefox itself? Perhaps something that needs configuration? So far I have the page and the associated images saved in the hard disk, but I don't think that should make any difference.
By the way, I know that the easiest answer would be to refresh the page, but no. That works for static pages, if I do that it simply begins a new game, loading the onload function Cambalachero ( talk) 21:20, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I want to archive 1GB of data in a time capsule and bury it in my garden. Which data storage method has the most chance of being recoverable after 50 years; CD-RW, hard drive, flash drive, printed paper? Please ignore all the issues about having computers that can read the data in 50 years or whatever; just assume aliens can figure it out.

How good is the 720p quality of these cameras? It says 720p but is it really? I bought one once and it turned out it was 720x480 xvid at 15 fps. That's not what I consider HD — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.250.125.169 ( talk) 22:09, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
I've attempted to download both individual articles and books in the pdf format. In each and every case I've been unable to save them or to open them with Adobe Acrobat. They'll cause Adobe Acrobat to crash each and every time. I've tried this on three separate Windows computers and on Mac OS computer. How can I fix this problem? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dhonaker ( talk • contribs) 22:33, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
All of the files that I'm having difficulty with are from Wikipedia. I'm able to download and open/print files from other sources without any problems. I do have the latest versions of Acrobat Reader on both the Windows and the Mac computers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dhonaker ( talk • contribs) 23:06, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
