    how come object.prototype inherits from function.prototype?

    I am trying to get to the bottom of javascript object, prototypes etc. I have a fairly good grasp of it, but I get confused the closer I get to the base object.prototype. First of all, I was under the impression that all objects descend directly from Object. But some objects (like Array) seem...

    Thumbnails in google images and youtube do not load

    I have been having this problem for months now and I have patiently searched the net for a solution as well as tried several things myself. So I hope someone outthere knows how to solve this. When I do a search in google images, the page loads, but the thumbnails never show. This happens in all...

    thanks again. So if I understand correctly I can access the array of quotes from a specific language through QuoteTypes.en ?

    Rendering multilingual quotes

    Hello, I need some help and/or advice. Much is said about rendering quotes around <q>-elements even in regard to multi-languages. A pure CSS solution is not viable at the moment because "quotes" and "content" are not supported by some browsers. Besides, the CSS-spec itself states: And this is...

    I don't want to boot from this disk!

    You are probably right. I am going to get another battery again, hopefully that will solve it.

    USB drive remains powered on in hybrid sleep?

    Too bad, I can't cut the power to the drive that way because I have tasks running that wake the computer up during the night and those need that external drive (for back ups). Do you think it is bad for the drive to remain spinning?

    USB drive remains powered on in hybrid sleep?

    I finally got vista to work properly with (hybrid)sleep only to find that my external USB hard disk (an old laptop hd connected via usb cables) keeps spinning. Is there a solution to this? (I checked "power options" for the disk in hardware manager, but there are none)

    I don't want to boot from this disk!

    I am guessing I get these messages because something goes wrong when the BIOS tries to read the SPD. So I want to try to manually set the timings. I have 2x1GB of Kingston PC-6400 (DDR2-800) modules in dual channel mode. I found the following timings to be default for this module: CL: 5 LRCD...

    I don't want to boot from this disk!

    Oh hang on, I get you...it doesn't matter if I remove the boot from the drive does it, if bios decides it wants to boot from it, it will try anyway...hmmm. So it is a bios problem like you said. I'll see if there is an updated bios on MSI-site and see if that helps.

    I don't want to boot from this disk!

    Thanks for the reply, Yes, I double checked the BIOS settings. Most settings retain their value, but some seem to "reset" somehow. I have had problems with it from the start though even replaced the battery. It is not a very big issue as most of the times it is allright. Just sometimes it boots...

    I don't want to boot from this disk!

    I have a desktop with a SATA primary harddrive running Vista Premium x64. I have connected a laptop harddrive to this system via USB. This I use for storage. I formatted the drive and there is a huge amount of data on it right now. The problem is, every now and then, the system tries to boot up...

    What exactly constitutes as &quot;idle&quot;?

    If there is no user at the keyboard, but there is a program running which saves or reads from the hard disk (like defragmenting, backing up, downloading) does Vista see that as being idle or not? In other words, is hard disk activity enough for Vista to NOT go into hibernation?

    Scheduling Task on Event

    Hi, Does anybody know if it is possible to create a task that fires when a specific USB stick is connected to the computer?

    Using my webspace as proxy...is that possible?

    Hi, I live in Turkey, and unfortunately some websites are blocked down here. Using web proxies is not really an option as they are slow and more often than not cannot handle flash/java stuff. So I was wondering if I could use my domain (which has 24MB space, 1Gb traffic and is based in another...

    Central addressbook implementation

    That wasn't the reason I mentioned the W3c, it was just an example. But since you mention it: By describing the formatting lanbguage they have an indirect effect on the way systems interact. But again, this is another topic. I get the point about Outlook/Exchange, but the same applies for a lot...

    Central addressbook implementation

    I would like to start a sort of "brainstorm topic" here. I have always been disappointed by the fact that the way we store addresses and related informations about our contacts in such a clumsy and inefficient way on our computers. The way I see it is that the benefit of a computer should be...

    Toggle speech recognition via keyboard

    Thank you for the explanation, but I knew all that. "To turn off Speech Recognition when you are not using it, click on the Microphone icon on the Language bar in the System Tray and make sure neither Dictation nor Voice Command is displayed." What I want is to do this with a single key on my...

    Toggle speech recognition via keyboard

    The systemwide (speech) shortcuts in the link you mentioned do not seem to work in Vista for me. What happens when I do that is that speech recognition starts up (in sleeping mode). This is not what I need. Perhaps I was not clear. Speech recognition (when running) has threemodes: on/off/sleep...

    Toggle speech recognition via keyboard

    I would like to be able to turn vistas speech recognition on/off using a key on my keyboard. For some strange reason these commands have no shortcut key assigned to them as far as I know. I tried it using AutoHotKey, but the speech recognition window does not have a handle, so it's a bit hard to...
