    Trying to add whitespace

    This is funny because some of the text that I'm typing in these posts ends up being interpreted by the browser as whitespace so we can't see it. Let me try again. I will add spaces after ampersands so the browser doesn't misinterpret what I'm trying to say: "& nbsp;& nbsp;" turns into...

    Trying to add whitespace

    Thanks for responding. I think I wasn't very clear in the first message. Adding blank space as " " is ignored by the browser. If I put "  " into the string, .Net turns it into    in the HTML, which displays as    instead of white...

    Trying to add whitespace

    I created a User Control which constructs a dropdown control dynamically. I'm trying to add whitespace between 2 parts of each entry as follows: OperatorSelect.Items.Add(New ListItem(Value1 & "    " & Value2, Value3)) This gets interpreted so that "  &quot...

    Object Disposal Problem

    In my code I have several objects that need a connection to SQL Server. So I have a Connection object that creates a shared connection when instantiated. Each page creates one of these objects which opens the connection. When the other objects create one of these connection objects, the...

    CSS and Printing Problem

    I have a web page, most of which doesn't use CSS. But I have one portion which is a grid with a plotted point. I use CSS to plot the point. It looks great when displayed in the browser (IE or Netscape), but when I print it, the point prints in the wrong place. It seems that style.top and...

    ORDER BY Multiple Columns

    Unfortunately, SQL Server doesn't support the GREATEST function or anything similar, as far as I know.

    From latitud and longitude to dec

    If I understand your question, you need to seperate out the Degrees, Minutes and Seconds parts of the Long or Lat. The formula is then Degrees + Minutes/60 + Seconds/3600

    ORDER BY Multiple Columns

    I have a program that constructs a query based on user input that includes several datetime fields (this in SQL Server). I would like to sort the results based on the most recent date of all of the date fields (some of the entries may be Null). You can only use one field in the Max function so...

    Element Positions w/o CSS Positioning

    Thanks for your response. That doesn't quite get at what I'm after. I need to determine the location of a table that has not been positioned using style sheets. I am ploting points (image file) on a grid (table). The position of the points are relative to the location of the grid. But I'd...

    Element Positions w/o CSS Positioning

    Is there a way to determine the position of an element that isn't positioned using CSS? getElementById.style.position only works if you have set the position of the element using a style sheet. This only needs to work in version 5+ browsers. Thanks in advance, Rob

    Blinking Tooltips

    I constructed a web page that behaves fine and every machine I've viewed it on, except for one which is running IE 6. On that one machine, the tooltips that I placed on the page (using the TITLE attribute) blink repeatedly on and off so that you can't read them. Does anyone know if there is...

    ORDER BY Prevents Updateable Query

    It seems that when I open a recordset where the query (SELECT statement) contains an ORDER BY clause, the resulting recodset is not updatable regardless of how I try to set CurserType and LockType. Does anyone know a way around this? Thanks, Rob

    Problem with Netscape 6 Events

    Thanks. I'll try it. But what if you need to pass parameters to the event handler?

    Problem with Netscape 6 Events

    I'm using Netscape 6.1 and it seems that the onMouseOver and onMouseOut events for a <SPAN> tag don't fire. Does anyone have any insite into this? Thanks, Rob

    Dump MSN Explorer

    Thanks for the quick response! I'll give it a try tonight when I get back on my new machine.

    Dump MSN Explorer

    I am very new to XP having just installed it last night. I really don't like MSN Explorer and prefer to use just IE, but MSN Explorer is the default browser and it comes up no matter what. Anyone know how to set IE as the default and be rid of MSN Explorer forever? Thanks, Rob
