Didn't you instructor appoint you a project to build? If you have made a choice of ASP.NET MVC, then let your instructor tell you what sort of project you are going to develop. I have not yet done graduation myself as I am a teen yet. Laugh | :laugh:

But my seniors when I visited university oftenly, told me that they were being appointed a project for a Java project with database, or similar. So, I think it is duty of your instructor to appoint one, or at second chance, he might issue a project to you from a check list that you make of what you may be making. Smile | :)

We don't provide projects, not even ideas for projects because we don't know your capabilities or what topics you have learnt from your institute. Your instructor knows, that is why it is their duty to appoint. Or, if they just ask you to build something in a framework, it is then your (or your team members) choice to create a project.

However, if during the project you feel doubt of something, code not working as excepted or similar problems, do visit QA forums[^] we would be glad to help you with your troubles. Smile | :)

Hi All,

I wanted to set height of my table to certain value if IE is maximized. Is there a way to fire such an event?

Thanks in advance.

Check onresize[^] event...
But! I would adwise not to do such thing, but use CSS's height, min-height, max-height to set the table height...

Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Thanks, I was trying to do something like this:

window.addEventListener("resize",ResizeTable);
function ResizeTable()
{
if((parseInt(screen.height) == parseInt(window.outerHeight)) || (parseInt(screen.height) == parseInt(document.body.clientHeight)))
{
document.getElementById("table").style.height="91%";
}
else
{
document.getElementById("table").style.height="89%";
}
}

This code never hits true condition as window.outerHeight & document.body.clientHeight are never equal to screen.height. They are always less that screen.height.

Please help.

No, there isn't. Usually, to check whether an application is maximized it to check the windows properties, but IE won't share any of these abstract properties to a web application. In that case, you are only left with an option of window.onresize event.

After handling the event, you can manage a guess for the IE's size (in pixels) and change the dimensions of the table depending on the size of viewport. Remember, it is the viewport that you are able to check against. If you (somehow) try to work around with document's dimensions, you may or may not get values biggers than the window or screen itself.

That is why, I would still recommend that instead of using JavaScript, you try using CSS3's media queries.

CSS

// default style

@media screen and (max-width: 300px) {
  // CSS styles when screen is only 300px
}

@media screen and (max-width: 500px) {
  // CSS styles when screen is 500px
}

@media screen and (min-width: 700) {
  // CSS styles when screen is minimum 500px and no matter how large
}

Avoid using JavaScript, as JavaScript costs CPU clocks, thus making it a non-friendly for device's battery, or maybe cause a lagging in your users device. Users may be using mobile.

Windows VM to process Microsoft Office files

Hi,

We are trying to convert Word, Powerpoint and Excel files to PDF (for Word and PPT) and to HTML (for Excel). Excel does a really great job converting and there are free PDF convertors for Word and PPT in windows.

We want to run a windows VM to do this where we can pass in requests and documents and receive the result back. I haven't been able to find anyone who has experience with Windows VM's and automated use of Excel and free ToPDF tools.

Does anyone have any thoughts / experience in doing this or can point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance,
John.

Hi,

I have a table with the following columns:

It's shown perfectly on desktop but I want to adjust the width or the layout of it on mobile

I am using:

CSS

@media all and (max-width: 414px) and (min-width: 375px)

but I am not sure what to set there for Tables and what's the the best way to do it?

Hi,

I found this article:

https://css-tricks.com/responsive-da...#comment-91835[^]

it's really excellent but I have a question please.

using the CSS mentioned in the article will turn all my TDs and TRs which is good except this part:

CSS

td:nth-of-type(1):before { content: "Status"; }
td:nth-of-type(2):before { content: "Paid"; }
td:nth-of-type(3):before { content: "Category"; }
td:nth-of-type(4):before { content: "From"; }
td:nth-of-type(5):before { content: "To"; }
td:nth-of-type(6):before { content: "Total Days"; }

because there are different tables in every page so how can I tell the CSS which titles to use for which table?

Thanks,
Jassim[^]

Smells to me like one or more of your device criteria is not being met. Try cutting them out one by one to see when you get a match.

"It depends". If you want your mobile site to be the same as your desktop site, just with a different display then the best way of doing that is via a responsive css design so the same site looks different on smaller devices. However if you want the site itself to be different, maybe you want a scaled-down version for mobiles with less pages and features, then it might be easier to have a different site for mobile that uses the same back-end.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
