Hi, I am using DCOM in my web page and back end is SQL server. My server's port:135 is locked. How can i establish database connection using ado? (by default port no:1433 for sql server is not sufficient.).
I am using connection string as
"PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB.1;Network Library = dbmssocn;Data Source =<datasource>,1433;Persist Security Info = False;UID=<uid>;PWD=<pwd>; Initial Catalog=<initial_catalog>" . I am getting error as "Distributed Transaction Error".
Please help me.? Confused | :confused:

Hi all

I am having a problem with window.open

In a file called pageone.html, I have the following:

<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
window.open("pagetwo.html");
</script>
</head>
</html>

pagetwo.html is nothing special - just some text (no javascript at all).

The problem I get is a javascript error - "Access Denied"

pageone.html is accessed by http://localhost/pageone.html

So why the hell is this happening? I can't figure it out at all. I have the correct permissions to the folder.

Thanks in advance,

Anthony

One of our applicatons needs to have more than one window open. It's a bit odd, but necessary. Anyway, turns out that the machine it was failing on had an odd combination of MS patches, and when we updated it fully, it worked properly. Thanks for your help anyway.

You mean ... your posted code worked properly with the patch updates (I assume that was a patch for the IE)

Yes, that's right. It's very odd - I know MS have made some changes to window.open to restrict cross-domain opening, but the two files were in the same directory. Maybe they made a mistake and corrected it later. A mystery.

For an example of a gift registry site go here.

The site is used usually for wedding gifts. The happy couple to be choose the gifts that they wish to receive on there wedding day and save their selection to an "account". The account name and password can then be given out to their guests who can log into the gift registry site and buy the gifts that the couple have selected.

It's similar to a wish list, except access can be gained my many parties.

I decided to have a go at making a webpage that doesnt use tables..and came up with this http://www.onyeyiri.co.uk/idea/[^] it displays fine in IE, but when nonny tested it in mozilla, it wasnt a bit off, any gurus out there want to point out my mistakes?

You could start with W3C validator results for your page, then fix the errors reported by the CSS validator.

I played around with the stylesheet a bit, and came up with something that seems to work mostly fine in both browsers, but isn't quite the same Frown | :(

I can't remember all the changes, but you can take a look for yourself:

I also had to remove the <?xml ... > header on the index.html (but left the DOCTYPE declaration) since it seems like IE was getting confused and reverting to quirks mode.

I used to, then i ditched it in favour for better designed HTML sites...actually, i just wasnt good enough with the graphics side of things, so i couldnt come up with a decent enough design. Blush | :O

Had me fooled...I've been trying for 5-6 years to learn graphics...and I have, but I lack the artistic concept...I could figure out how you created that starburst effect, but for the life of me I can never think of cool eccentric cool designs...

edit: whoops. misread your post, i thought you said you COULDNT....ah well, must be cos its late Blush | :O

its really easy....if you have photoshop.

1. create the clouds (render->clouds)

2. Filter->Pixilate->Mezzotint, and set it to long lines.

3. Filter->Blur->Radial Blur, set amount to 100, and use Zoom & best quality

4. Use Hue/Saturation to set the colour. (i find its easier to select the colour i want it to be and make it foreground colour, then use Hue/Saturation dialog, when you check "colourise", it automatically sets it to the colour in the foreground)

Redirection and address bar

27-Oct-03 11:46

Thats alright...every article is slightly different. Perhaps i'll get results i'd prefer over an article I read on some graphics site Smile | :)

I wish I could do awesome graphics, but i've excepted that it's maybe best to specialize in programming and get someone specialized in new media designs to take care of front end stuff Smile | :)

I recently acquired a .com address. My site is hosted on an ISP, and the adress .com is redirected to this ISP. The problem is when the redirection occurs, the address shown in the address bar of the browser is changed to the one of the ISP. I want to avoid that and keep in the address bar the original .com. How can I do that?

Thanks in advance for your answers!

Check your .com registrants services. Ask them about URL forwarding and see if they offer this service.

Thanks for your answer.

In fact, my registrant is already forwarding the URL, and that's my problem. I would like to see in the address bar the original address, not the forwarded one.
