There are many -- try googling for YUI2, CKEditor, or TinyMCE... why doesn't FCK work?

Hey everyone, Has anyone used the GoDaddy SSL certs? Do you trust these & are they relatively trouble-free? The only posts I see are from ~2006 and point to issues installing the certs, but there isn't a lot of new material re: how much they're trusted and/or their comparison to other services (thawte, etc). Any opinions? Thanks! --dC

Ahh, good pointer - the NOLO books really are useful. I'll check it out.

Hey all, Quick Q. We've (http://www.plml.org) worked with some great freelancers over the years, and never had to have a signed contract with them. However, our bank is now asking that we do. Does anyone have a good sample contract that a company would use with their freelance developers? I can find lots of examples of contracts that freelancers use w/ companies, but not vice versa... Thanks so much! --Dave (and sorry if this belongs in freelancing -- it's NOT a request or post, though)

Ping -- anyone familiar with this? Lacking Zend, what other ways are there to get data into a google sheet?

p.s. Using the PHP lib isn't a possibility, b/c the shared hosting won't allow the install of the Zend GData libs... so a custom form seems the only route?

Greets all, Just checking. I know that, back in 2008, it was possible to customize a Google form, off-server, by essentially copying/pasting/editing the Google Form submit code. Is this still possible & working, e.g., this example - http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2008/05/customize-google-docs-forms.html ? Can someone please confirm? If so, I'll dig in && work it through -- time is limited right now, and I just need to confirm that it's working (can't seem to find much discussion about it since 2008). Or, maybe there's a better way to do this, now? Thanks! --Dave

It's actually not precisely PHP-related... but if we want the most complete (worldwide) results, which Whois server should we send our PHP-based Whois query to? (ARIN, for instance, just catalogs the US...) Thanks for your suggestions! ) --Dave

Haku, Yes, exactly - thanks so much for the suggestion (it works!) and my apologies for not being as clear up front. It's a great example that I'll apply elsewhere in the codebase as well... Cheers, --Dave

Haku, Sorry - had been trying to write a concise message, but I guess it was too concise. Here's the codebase that it pulls from, and is supposed to assign to (below). Basically, we have three fields - a day and month dropdown, and a year input box, and then need to combine that to feed a hidden field, BGC_DOB__c (this is all on Force.com). For some reason, it isn't populating - and as long as it populates in MM-DD-YYYY, it will store... <label for="BGC_DOB__c">Date of Birth:</label> <select name="bd_month" id="bd_month" style="width: 100px;"> <option value="01">January</option> <option value="02">Febuary</option> <option value="03">March</option> <option value="04">April</option> <option value="05">May</option> <option value="06">June</option> <option value="07">July</option> <option value="08">August</option> <option value="09">September</option> <option value="10">October</option> <option value="11">November</option> <option value="12">December</option> </select> <select name="bd_day" id="bd_day" style="width: 50px; margin-left: 5px;"> <option value="01">1</option> <option value="02">2</option> <option value="03">3</option> <option value="04">4</option> <option value="05">5</option> <option value="06">6</option> <option value="07">7</option> <option value="08">8</option> <option value="09">9</option> <option value="10">10</option> <option value="11">11</option> <option value="12">12</option> <option value="13">13</option> <option value="14">14</option> <option value="15">15</option> <option value="16">16</option> <option value="17">17</option> <option value="18">18</option> <option value="19">19</option> <option value="20">20</option> <option value="21">21</option> <option value="22">22</option> <option value="23">23</option> <option value="24">24</option> <option value="25">25</option> <option value="26">26</option> <option value="27">27</option> <option value="28">28</option> <option value="29">29</option> <option value="30">30</option> <option value="31">31</option> </select> <input style="width: 40px; margin-left: 5px;" type="text" id="bd_year" name="bd_year" value="yyyy" length="4" width="80px" onFocus="fnClear(this);"></input> <apex:inputhidden id="BGC_DOB__c" value="{!Background_Check__c.BGC_DOB__c}" /> <span class="required"> </span> </div>

Thanks for your question -- the end result should be that: j_id0:CT_App_Template:background_check__c:BGC_DOB__c.value == MM-DD-YYYY, like 02-08-1974

Hey all, I have a bit of JS code that combines three date fields into one, and then checks to ensure it's set... for some reason, the values aren't coming across. The final result, field j_id0:CT_App_Template:background_check__c:BGC_DOB__c , needs to be in MM-DD-YYYY format... Any suggestions? -- Thanks! Here's the code: var y = document.getElementById("j_id0:CT_App_Template:background_check__c:BGC_DOB__c"); var t = y.value.split("-"); document.getElementById("bd_month").value = t[1]; document.getElementById("bd_day").value = t[2]; document.getElementById("bd_year").value = t[0]; y.value = t; alert(y.value); if(y.value == ""){ alert("Please enter DOB"); event.cancelBubble == true; el.focus(); return false; }

Hey there -- Yep, that was the issue. I had to float within floats; hadn't dealt with this before. Thanks for the tip!

Hey all, I'm having bleed between the contents of some DIVs... I think it's because they're not displaying as blocks, but even after adding this style, they still bleed into one another. I've enclosed my code, css clip, and a quick screenshot of the issue... thanks for your suggestions! --Dave .inputbox { margin: 10px; padding: 5px; display: block; } .textareabox { margin: 10px; border: 1px solid white; padding-bottom: 10px; display: block; } .textareabox label { padding: 10px; text-align: left; display: block; font-size: 12px; } .inputbox label { position: absolute; text-align: right; width: 240px; font-size: 12px; } <div class="textareabox"> <label for="Years_Direct_Service_To_Youth_Text__c">Please describe the work you have done with youth:</label> <apex:inputTextarea id="Years_Direct_Service_To_Youth_Text__c" value="{!CT_Application__c.Years_Direct_Service_To_Youth_Text__c}"/> </div> <div class="inputbox"> <label for="Years_Volunteering__c">Excluding your experience with Citizen Schools, how many years of experience do you have volunteering or working in a social service, youth services, community or education organization?</label> <apex:inputText id="Years_Volunteering__c" value="{!CT_Application__c.Years_Volunteering__c}"/> </div> <div class="textareabox"> <label for="Years_Volunteering_Text__c">Please describe the volunteer work you have done:</label> <apex:inputTextarea id="Years_Volunteering_Text__c" value="{!CT_Application__c.Years_Volunteering_Text__c}"/> </div> [attachment deleted by admin]

Hey all, Been troubleshooting this code... it's working in IE, but not in Firefox or Safari. The functionality allows a piece to be edited (doubleclick) once it has been placed - try it on http://www.boolify.org. Any ideas? Thank you! --Dave Here's a bit of the relevant code: // ======= new event added @ Jul 7, 2009 ======= // the double click event newpiece.addEvent('dblclick', function(e) { e = new Event(e).stop(); // exception if (this.getProperty('class') != "button") return; // if the dblclick target is the operators, just return else { replace_flag = true; // prepare to replace the text, flag is true replace_id = this.getProperty('id'); // get the button id loadPopup(); // pop up the dialog for user to input return; } }); if (!$((count-1)+'')) // skip all the rest if this is the first piece { loadPopup(); return; } Here's the function: function replace_text(p_id) { var nv = $('newvalue').value; if (nv == '') return; if (nv.length > 75) { alert("You cannot enter more than 76 characters"); return; } // preserve the old text on the button var old_nv = $(p_id + '').innerHTML; if (nv.length < 4) { var spaces = (4 - nv.length); var spc = ''; for (var x = spaces+4; x > 0; x--) { spc += '&#160;'; } $(p_id + '').innerHTML = '<span>' + nv + spc + '</span>'; } else $(p_id + '').innerHTML = '<span>' + nv + '</span>'; // search out if there're the same keywords around the board // if no, continue // if yes, omit the new input one, and restore to the former text // for (var x = count; x>0; x--) { if (x == p_id) continue; else { if ($(x + '').innerHTML == $(p_id + '').innerHTML) { alert("Same key words detected, please re-enter"); $(p_id + '').innerHTML = old_nv; break; } } } // restore flag and id to default value replace_flag = false; replace_id = 0; closeDialogue(false); }
