I've never used FoxPro before, but have to now for a uni assignment. I need to create some tables, using SQL statements, that contain (among other things) fields such as:- HorseDOB (DD/MM/YYYY) Odds (4-1, 5-4 etc) SexOfHorse (M/F) Result (either 1,2,3,4,U or N) TimeofRace (HH:MM) and...

Hi Does anyone know of any good tutorials on programming the USB port? In particular a web cam attached to the USB port. Online tutorials would be great, unfortunatly I haven't got enough money to be buying $60 books, but if there's something cheap then that would be good too. TIA, Iain

Thanks vop, I need it for a presentation, that's why I wasn't sure aout asking here

I know this is probably totally the wrong place for this, but I'm at a loss as to where else to go. I need to find out how many people worldwide, use a Windows operating system. I've searched all over for this, but can't find anything. Does anyone know of any sites that might have this kind...

Uhh, by "the black and white section" do you mean www.bwgames.com? If you do the reason you can't see the source code is because there isn't any, it's a flash page. If you don't mean that site, then I don't know what you're talking about because I can 'view source' on any non-flash...

Never mind, I've done it using window.opener.fieldName.

Hi, I've seen a couple of posts relating to window.opener and fields but none of the methods tried solve my problem so: I've got a hidden field: <input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;PGText&quot; value =&quot;&quot;> I add to the value of this field at various points. I have a link on...

http://www.devguru.com/Technologies/ecmascript/quickref/js_methods.html that's pretty good, I think there might be some missing as I keep hearing about new ones on this site :-) - Iain

Hi, as far as I know, the only way to change the size of a select box is to have longer items in it (i.e. more characters), this is what I was taught anyway. If this is true then the only way I could see of doing it would be to change the length of one of the options in the select relative...

Ummm....I don't think so. What you could do (and this is just off the top of my head) is to get the user to seperate items with...say...a comma. Then use the split method in javascript to split the string into an array of strings. It's not perfect but it's all I can think of at the moment.

Sorry, hit submit by accident. Add to that: Some Text is the message the user sees in the alert and Default Text is the message that's displayed (but can be overwritten by user) in the text bar.

var Answer = prompt(&quot;Some Text&quot;, &quot;Default text&quot;); then Answer contains whatever they type.

martindavey - You sir, are a genius. I knew there had to be a way. :-) :-) If you're ever in Coventry, UK. I'll buy you a drink, you're my new favourite person :-) THANK YOU, Iain

document.write clears the page before it writes. You either need to use it when the page loads (not really viable option for you) or use a <span> (or a <div> I think) and give it a name, then use the innerHTML property to change what's in the span. <span name=&quot;span1&quot;> </span>...

Yeah that's partly what I meant by saying &quot;I ended up using the error handling, which isn't exactly perfect.&quot; The try/catch method is perfect, unfortunatly my company is stuck in the stone age and about 40% of our workstations use Netscape 4.75 and try/catch isn't a JavaScript...

Wullie, I can't see your site on any of the links on this thread (Location - Coventry, UK; Time - 15:06 GMT) but I have seen it before and I think the guy who said he wasn't interested has obviously never known someone who would be interested. I do and I know that it would be a great help to...

This script should do what you want. http://www.cgiscript.net/cgi-script/csNews/csNews.cgi?database=js_misc%2edb&command=viewone&id=39&op=t I think :-) Iain

No that gives an error, which is what I was trying to avoid.

Sorry mate, I never found the answer to this one. I ended up using the error handling, which isn't exactly perfect. I'm afraid I've got no experiance at all with VBscript so I can't tell you if there's an equivalent function. Iain

I don't know for definite, but I can't see a way you could do this without altering the imported pages code, and as far as I know, you can't change code on another server, it's something to do with security. Of course I could be spectacularly wrong, if so feel free to correct me Iain
