    Hi Guys Are there any characters

    Thanks for the response. I tried w3c and think that the spec says that only a sub-set of ASCII can be used. However, I've been sticking all manner of values into the title attribute and IE 5/5.5 appears to have no problem with them. I guess that I'll just have to accept the reality of what is...

    Hi Guys Are there any characters

    Hi Guys Are there any characters that cannot be used in html tag attributes, (apart from the id/name)? E.g. Could I use the unicode for japanese symbols in a title att? I have been testing this with european characters but I was wondering if there is a definitive list that says what can and...

    parseFloat in a French browser

    Sorry guys, I missed the closing script tag on the last post <html> <head> <script> <!-- function testParse(){ var a = '1,3'; alert(parseFloat(a)+2); } --> </script> </head> <body> <input type=button value='Click Me' onclick='testParse();'> </body> </html>

    parseFloat in a French browser

    Hi Guys I'm trying to establish if non-English browsers have a different implementation of parseFloat(). For example, if I enter 1,30 into a French installation of IE 5 will this be parsed as one dollar thirty cents or one dollar? I've changed the regional settings of my Windows 2k...

    I18N of JS floats

    Hi jared The particular problem that I'm trying to address wouldn't affect you as I guess that you've got the machine set to a US locale. The issue that I have is that not all locales use a '.' and I'm trying to establish if the js engine in the browser is smart enough to swap the separator...

    Thanks jared Could you just tell me what your locale is, (what regional settings are in place) Cheers

    I18N of JS floats

    Hi Guys Is it the case that parseFloat will ALWAYS successfully parse a float that is formatted with the user's local decimal indicator. E.g. A German browser will correctly parse one dollar seventeen cents formatted as 1,17? Thanks in advance

    homework assignment for writing program question

    Hi Tammy351 There's a solution below that meets the bare-bones of the requirements. Note that there was a mistake in the main method, (assigning the result of r.nextInt() to the array rather than to a position in the array). Hope this helps //Program Starts here import java.util.*; public...

    Array Sorting Question

    You could put a filter routine in front of the call to sort() or reverse() to remove the duplicates. Removing elements in the sort is going to give you problems because the script-engine is building a new array based on your return values but I guess you could avoid that problem by scattering...

    Disable the browser's print button

    Are you using something like: window.open(&quot;url&quot;, &quot;name&quot;, &quot;atts&quot;); to create the pop-up? If so, then you can simply append the parameters to the url string e.g. myUrl.jsp?paramOne=testingOne&paramTwo=testingTwo These would then be available to the jsp containing in...

    Hi Guys I've been puzzling over

    Normally I'd say that body.onload is a fine location for such a script but the implementation is using JSP, (so there's no direct access to the body tag server-side by the time that this table-building routine is hit). I know that I can add a function to the body tag onload, (there's an faq...

    Applets in ie 5.5.?

    I think that you just need to download the JRE from Sun and everything will be fine.

    Hi Guys I've been puzzling over

    That's great boomerang but I was wondering if anybody knows of a way to have 'three' automatically expand in that fashion, (i.e. without having to explicitly set the height attribute). I'll take a peak at the specs again and post back if I find anything. Thanks for your help

    Hi Guys I've been puzzling over

    Hi Erik The effect that I'm trying to achieve is approximately: One Two Three rather than One Two Three The <br> tags in the first column are there to simulate the presence of a large quantity of text that I thought would detract from the issue. Any help appreciated...
