A bit of a general FLV question:

About a week ago a few of my FLV players on various sites stopped showing up. I have searched google and found others with the same problem but no solutions. I was wondering if anyone else has come accross this problem or a solution (working FLV player):

Here's the details:
- I have two different progressive download FLV players but both are embedded using javascript and object tags (DreamWeaver CS3s insert->Media->Flash Video). I have both players on several web servers

- The video players used to work on every site (multiple servers, hosts & OS) - Now only some servers fail.

- The FLVs work on both Linux and Windows Servers but also fail on Windows and Linux Servers - so it's not a OS specific bug.

- They were throwing a "function is undefined" error (it was clearly defined - "AC_RunActiveContent.js" - for those who know). Now they aren't throwing any errors at all - the code hasn't been changed. Is this an adobe "codebase" thing?

- It's player works an fails on different sites using various versions player - but the same sites are always the ones that fail (no matter what the flash player version is)

So... It doesn't seem to be a coding problem... It's not an OS Specific problem... It's not just one web host... Er.

Wouldn't that involve just a simple Unicode use? Why do you still stick onto age-old font installations?

how to get parent property from subclass [modified]

I created an instance of a subclass within the parent's constructor. Now in my subclass function, I would like to get the properties of the parent class in my init function. When the subclass object was created, the group property did not exist. It was only after setGroup was called, that it got set. How do I get the property group from the parent class?

parent.prototype.setGroup = function(group) {
this.group = group;
}

function parent() {
this.name = "Melanie";
this.subclassobj = new subclass();
}

var test = new parent();
test.setGroup();

subclass.prototype = new parent;
function subclass {
this.color = "blue";
this.init();
}

subclass.prototype.init = function() {
alert(this.name);
}

I tried many different ways of accessing the group property in the parent but to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi all,

I am not a proffesional web developer but do know bits a pieces. I just need quick idea to start on the following task.

Task
I want to develop a web based form having few filed and a drop down menu. The drop down menu should allow user to select any particular server on the basis of which the form will get populate (bringing all the data from the dbo to fileds).

I know sql well so that part is easy.
Know html np in creating a form.

Question

Can any one please tell me whats the best way to do it? It will be great if you could send web link or any resource to show how it works, otherwise just explain a little.

Regards,

Sameer

Well the "best" way is to have a professional developer do the work. Given your post I don't think that is the answer you are looking for.

As stated above this is not the "best" way, it is just one way.

1) Query the database to get the list of servers and use the results to populate the drop down menu.

2) On the click event of the menu item use the data associated to the clicked item to execute a filtered query of the database and populate the forum with the results.

thanks for the reply.

I know this part.

What I am looking for is which technology would I use and how? For example if I use JSP or PHP. just looking for a simple code sample for,

1. connectivity to ms sql
2. How to get value selected by the user - drop down menu - what option ? mayb in jscripts it would be doc.getElementByID(..).value ---------NOT sure
3. How to send the value to db ?
4. how to populate?

In other words I am looking for a hint of code that does it. It will be great if some could send me that.

Thanks

Sameer

All of those things as code samples are all over the internet. Why come to forum and ask when there is a perfectly good search engine free for use called Google that will find them for you?

An example solution:
Make sure your web server supports php or asp.net
Try searching google for "Php ms sql tutorial" or "asp.net ms sql tutorial"

Hi all,

I have pdf help files in a SQL-DB that has to be displayed in a webpage. The code I wrote currently opens a blank page and only once you refresh the page does the pdf display
Anny sugjestions?

My code:

if (Request.QueryString["ID"] != null)
{
String ID = Request.QueryString["ID"];
Help.HelpFile objHelpFile = new Help.HelpFile(new Guid(ID));
Response.ClearContent();
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
Response.BinaryWrite(objHelpFile.Data);
Response.Flush();
Response.End();
}

I suggest you debug the application and see if anything obvious is occurring.

You may also want to use Mozilla Firefox with the Live HTTP Headers[^] to see if there's something missing or malformed in the initial response.
