Any idea who to contact to get new gas tank delivered to Cyberjaya area? I contacted a guy who delivers around this area but was informed that they don't sell new gas tanks anymore, they just replace existing ones. Checked with Petronas but seems like Cyberjaya is not in their coverage.

Fetching Current URL from IFRAME

Kuroro — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 14:01:09 +0800

Hi guys,

I've been googling around for quite a while and sadly to say I can't seem to find the solution for this.

Okay, lets say I have an IFRAME.

CODE

Reading the initial loaded URL is easy. It's just a matter of reading the IFRAME's src attribute. But once users start clicking around in the IFRAME, is it possible to fetch the URL of the next loaded page ? For the above example, lets say I entered something like "text" in the search area and click Google Search. Therefore the next URL that I want to fetch is for example "http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=text&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=49bb1336baeea163" ... instead of "www.google.com"

I've been looking around for some sort of script that can do this. But seems like this is not allowed ? Is this true ?

Printing Multiple Pages of Result

Kuroro — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 15:05:35 +0800

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if you guys can help me with this. Lets say I have a long list of results in multiple tables and what not which does not fit in a page if I print it out. My questions is how do I specify to the printer or printing function (in PHP?) to go to the next page when there is not enough space ? I don't want to simply continue printing it by default as at times a portion of a table might be in one page and another portion on another page. Is there any manual way to specify when I want the page to end ? Part of the reason is also so that I can put a header on top for each of the pages.

Really don't have much idea about printing process in PHP Hope you guys can help me out .. thanks!

[SOLVED]Sorting Array Keys

Kuroro — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 09:30:34 +0800

Hi guys,

I was working on something yesterday and I am stuck on something that revolves around sorting. This is the example values I have in an array before being sorted.

array[0][1229904000]['title']="Something something";
array[1][1229731200]['title']="Zzzz zzz";

In this case I wanna sort the bolded area so that it becomes:

array[0][1229731200]['title']="Zzzz zzz";
array[1][1229904000]['title']="Something something";

Is this possible? Need advice from you guys on how to do this. Thanks in advance.

Imation Apollo 160gig - Not enough disk space

Kuroro — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 09:00:22 +0800

Hi guys,

Hope you guys can help me with this issue I am having. I just bought myself a new Imation Apollo 160gig External Harddisk and it is working fine. Currently I have managed to copy in around 5gig of content and there is roughly around 143gig space left in it.

However when I start to copy another large (5gig) file into it, it says there is not enough disk space. Is there something wrong with my harddisk? I've already checked for error and there is none. Defrag but it seems in order. But the Properties is saying that there is 143gig FREE SPACE.

Any solution to this problem?

Converting HTML Table to Excel

Kuroro — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 09:18:53 +0800

Hi Guys,

Now I've seen some of the topics in here regarding converting info from HTML table to Excel before. But there is still certain issues that I can't seem to solve regarding it. So if you guys are kind enough to help me out.

So far what I am doing is :

1. Query database
2. Put all the data in a string (\t for next column, \n for next row)
3. Used these headers :
- header("Content-type: application/x-msdownload");
- header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=fileConverted.xls");
- header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
4. And write the string into the file using print.

So far that works. But there are several things that I can't change using this method :

1. The width of the column
2. Formatting of text such as bold and also borders on table.

Is there anyway I can transfer width of the columns and formatting into the excel file? So far I found one way but I find it a bit inconvenient which is a direct change of a html file to xls file format. Is this the proper way to do it?

Problem reading a specific DVD

Kuroro — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:25:25 +0800

I guess what DVD is it doesn't really matter. But anyhow, right to the problem I am having.

So after I came back from fixing and finally making my graphic card work I thought I might try with some games and thought of installing a game to try out. To make things easier, I will go through what happen step by step.

1. I install my drivers for new graphic card and what not. Restarted
2. Set all the stuff up
3. Put in my game DVD. DVD autoruns. Selected Install.
4. Suddenly my PC prompts for a restart.
5. Restarted
6. When I came back to Windows, says it couldn't read my F:\setup.exe error (My DVD drive)
7. So ... fine. I remove and reinsert the DVD. Still can't read.
8. Try other DVD. Can read.

Is there a possibilities that Windows/DVD drive 'can't read' a specific DVD and is there a way to revert back or solve it??

Somehow I keep getting weird situations that I dunno how to solve these few weeks. Bad luck I guess

Problem Installing my Ati 4870

Kuroro — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 08:43:51 +0800

Hello guys,

I just got my Sapphire 4870 on Saturday. Sadly to say, it doesn't seem to work.

Originally I had a 7600GT, I uninstalled the driver properly and shutdown and removed the card and installed the new card. It was at tough work trying to fit every other hardware with the 4870 card inside (the card was somewhat bigger than I had expected) but in the end I manage to fit it in anyways.

I'll just cut the story short with the symptoms i guess. Basically two things happened when I press the start button.
1. Beeps
2. No display
Which gives me the impression that its something to do with the graphic card issue (d'oh)

Anybody have this problem before or knows what is wrong? I am using a Corsair TX550Watt which frankly I think is enough since I removed to a bare PC of just mobo, processor, cd/dvd rom, one harddisk and the graphic card itself.

Appreciate it if you guys can help me with this. Please anyone?

IDE Hard Drive Not Detected by Windows XP

Kuroro — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 22:38:32 +0800

Hope you guys can help me with this. Recently I just bought a new Seagate 320 gig HDD after one of my main WD one died. And I have an old WD 120 gig with data inside. After installing new Windows XP into my Seagate, I can't seem to detect drive for my old harddisk. So here is the situation.

Initially, when I first encountered this 2 years ago when I bought this PC, I did something in Disk Management. But I can't remember what it was. Suppose to change the dynamic status to basic right? And some other stuffs.

Can you guys help me? The situation is
1. BIOS detects both harddisk. I have set the WD one to slave and SG one as master
2. I can detect the WD harddisk hardware in my Windows XP
3. I also succesfully assigned a drive name to the WD harddisk.
4. Now it is saying that the drive is not formatted and asking me to format.... which I don't want to since there is information inside.

Guys know how to troubleshoot this?

Getting multiple functions to run on onload event

Hiding radio button behind an image

Kuroro — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 15:25:02 +0800

Hope this is the right place. It's both design and coding. Recently the design in BBC website caught my attention where you can customize the layout as well as the color theme of the page. As far as I see the form just uses unordered list (<ul>), list (<li>) and normal radio button. But when displayed, as you can see on the page it shows a rectangular sample of the color theme which is clickable and functions just like a radio button.

I am wondering how do I do that in CSS or Javascript (or both)?

[WTA] Decal sheets

Kuroro — Sat, 12 Jan 2008 09:43:36 +0800

Hi guys,

I remembered last time I was able to get this "sticker sheets" at stationery shops when I was small but nowadays I hardly find it anywhere. What I am looking for is not the paper version that tears easily but rather the decal type of sticker sheets. They don't tear easily, stretches, etc. Any idea where to get them? They usually come in A4 sizes.

This morning I decided to go through the quest Spirit of the Mirrors where you are suppose to whack 3 creatures with some quest item given.

Not knowing where they are I checked out stratics and found that one is a Frog, one is an Orc and another is a Werewolf. So I finished the first two and decided to for the werewolf. But instead of finding the werewolf I found out that the last creature have been changed to Pako The Cat a level 38 monsters. What gives!? Now I can't finish the quest.

ANyone saw this before?

Hi Guys,

I just shifted to a new house. The house had a ZXDSL modem and Streamyx 1Mb line. Unfortunately, the modem was reset of its settings. So I googled around for the way to set it.

In general, I found that most sites asked to set this way :

After Commit and Reboot, the PPP light is still red, Link Down, When I check the Alarm it says "PPP Authorization Failed". Does this mean the username and password I provided was wrong? (I did try the tmnet webmail and the username and password worked). Can someone provide me the correct setup instructions if the above is wrong?
