A: This is in reference to those double down arrows that occur based on previous menu selection history. I dislike them.

A: A Web page can look different when viewed with various browsers, browser versions, Operating Systems and screen resolutions (a monitor setting). Try changing the screen resolution to see what your Web page might look like for someone else using a smaller or larger screen resolution. Some good (square) resolutions to try are 800x600, 1153x864, 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1600x1200, 1920x1440 (pixels wide x pixels high). The choices you are able to select will be determined by how powerful your computer's graphics are.

A: Your connection is secure, or should I say, more secure when SSL is enabled. A good way to tell if SSL is enabled is if your browser address line starts with https:// versus http:// (note the 's'). You can also look for the yellow lock in the bottom right hand side of the browser window such as this image depicts.

A: To select multiple items hold down the <Ctrl> key on a PC or the <Command> key on a Mac and click the individual options. You can also select multiple items by dragging the cursor across the items OR by highlighting one item then hold down the <Shift> key and then highlight another item. This selects all items between. These same concepts, except dragging the cursor, can be applied to Windows Explorer files and folders.

A: To Copy text, first highlight the text in question then hold down the <Ctrl> key on a PC or the <Command> key on a Mac and press the <C> key. To Paste text, place your cursor where the text's destination is and then hold down the <Ctrl> key on a PC or the <Command> key on a Mac and press the <V> key. <Ctrl> <C> and then <Ctrl> <V> or on a Macintosh <Command> <C> and then <Command> <V>.

A: Hold down the <Windows> key and press the <E> key. Additionally, on a Windows machine you can click the Folders toolbar button to show the folders on the left pane and the contents of that highlighted folder on the right pane.

A: On Windows XP an error occurred after a reboot which caused PHP to stop serving MySQL content. The solution was simple, just copy the file libmysql.dll to \windows\system32 and restart Apache.

A: document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].setAttribute("onload", "funct()"); is a cool way to apply a javascript function that will execute on a page load but unfortunately it doesn't work in IE 6 (Windows). Use "window.onload = funct;" within the script block but don't attempt to pass a parameter or do anything other than just calling the function without the function brackets "()". In other words, use funct not funct() or funct(param).

A: Set the CSS style attribute of outline-width to 0px. This works on IE and Firefox at least.

A: If there is a space in the form field name that is submitted to the server many of the typical javascript attempts at accessing that value for validation purposes will fail. For example, document.forms["myform"].first name.value will cause an error due to the space between first and name. The trick is to use the elements[] array querying the field type such as ... var formobj = document.forms["myform"].elements[i]; if(formobj.type == "text") { /* do stuff */ }
