Hi. I've got to embed a shockwave flash file into a PP2k7 slide. All well and good, looked it up, did the control panel thing, and pointed at the .swf file. Nice. But the flash file uses a number of xml files, http://tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1516462&page=1 and has lost functionality...

OK. I'm trying to get hold of the brain.swf from http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/body/interactives/organs/brainmap/brain.swf It displays fine on ie, gc, and ff. FF is the only one to successfully pull it down to save, but after saving it's not functional. How do they DO that? And...

My sister lives on a narrow boat. She needs a laptop she can charge off a 12 volt system based on car type batteries. She doesn't need an all singing all dancing machine, just office and web, but I don't know where to start thinking about this. Any ideas? Ta.

OK. My site sheffieldtrauma.com (thanks for the help in FF) is now firing on many cylinders, but not on IE6. What's happening has to do, I think, with clearing a float container. On this page there's an elegant solution, http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2005/02/26/simple-clearing-of-floats/ the...

Hi. I have a disappearing borders problem. It's also interesting in that it's OK in IE but not in FF. My site sheffieldtrauma.com looks fine in IE7, but the borders on the navigation boxes disappear in Firefox. The CSS file is sheffieldtrauma.com/stsc.css. Which is strange, 'cos the WC3...

Hi. My site sheffieldtrauma.com has a background image, not repeated, made in photoshop, and with a basic background of 204/204/255, or ccccff. The page background is also ccccff, but there's a clear difference between the graphic and the background. I KNOW I've had this before, somewhere, but...

I'm sure this was me, but I've got a bit lost. I use CS3. Excellent, very happy. But. Lately, something has happened to gradients and all 'blurred' dges, like soft brushes. I'm getting a sort of stepped gradient, so instead of a gradual blur, when I zoom in close I get lines at one colour...

Hi. Generally speaking, I expect css to work predictably, but on my site www.sheffieldtrauma.com when you go to the Trauma page, on some PCs (IE6) it works fine; there's a submenu below the top one, and text appears in the expected place. On some PCs, though, the submenu continus on the top...

I want to do just that. I need a page - not a part of the integral structure of my site - to NOT be picked up by spiders. It won't have referral links in or out from my basic site structure, but it hosts documents for a yahoo mail list and we don't want it picked up by browser spiders. Any...

Hi. I'm trying to find show/hide layers, or the equivalent, in DWCS3. I'm guessing you need a div, but I can't find anything like the old insert layer command. Help?

Hi. I've made up a centre-folded a5 (ie a6 front) leaflet. Now I'd like to be able to print it onto double sided a4, ie 2 leaflets at a time. Hope this is clear. It's not, really, is it? I've produced a leaflet with 4 a6 pages, (ie folded a5), and want to print the a5s on borderless a4, one...

Hi. Am struggling with a crashing (bsod) pc running xppro sp2. Have reloaded XP and it's still crashing. If I load XP with wireless stick in it repeatedly restarts before loading, or bsod's. If I put the stick in later it's fine, but if I then use my DVD it crashes the PC. So in the olden...

XP Pro SP1 4 onboard USB2 slots I've been having a gradual problem with a Netgear wireless usb stick, such that it was gradually degrading my PC's ability to boot up, close down, and so on. Connecting it through a USB hub immediately bluescreened, loading the machine with the stick in would...

As above, really. XPPro SP2, and my xp firewall and xp sec centre have gone awol. Virus (haxdoor) now scraped, (thanx ewido), but now we're really vulnerable. Is there a legit repair for this? S

Hi. We bought a laptop on ebay. The period for registration hadn't expired but microsoft bounced the registration online. I looked around and there were a variety of ways - one clearly explained by msoft - to deal with this. My problem is that the date for registration has now expired, and xppro...

Call me old fashioned, but I ALWAYS want explorer (by which I mean Start/My Documents or Start/My Computer/C to open in 'Folders' mode, as in open, then click 'folders'in the top bar. I do this every damn time I open explorer, and have never found a default option for it. Is there one, and how? Ta

I've finally decided to engage with templates, (yes, I know I should've done this ages ago). Anyway. I've created templates for a site which already has about 30 pages. Obviously new pages will use templates, but is there an easy way to retrofit pages which originally didn't, or am I going to...

Hi. Using DWMX and CSS, I need to create non-underlined links for part of a page, but default to the old underlined blue in other places. I know I can do this by creating a new class, and making no underlines, but I need to have 2 different colours. IE I need plain old blue/purple for email...

Hi. Reinstalled Windows on my laptop. Now find my daughter has 'tidied away' my note of 128 wep key. (Netgear) Have 3 other PCs in the house with the same wep key. Anyone know how I can grab the key off one of these to use on my lappy? This is a genuine request. Honest. S
