I took the rest of my comprehensive exams today.

Cool, did you do good?

I got my note for my English short story and I got a 3 (the R, 1,2,3,4 scale) which is about 79%. My English gramar is horrible but I got good for the rest such as thinking. The story is science fiction and has lot of connections and stuff and basically had lot of thinking involved to make everything connect together. It's a science fiction version of pinocchio.

I know I did well in biology, French, and geometry. The one that will be my lowest grade is probably my computer class (it's like a Microsoft Office class). I forgot to study the types of letters.

Bug 86193 Prevent websites from disabling the mouse right-click context menu - disallow sites access to Window.oncontextmenu and friends

YEA! I can't wait until Firefox 0.9 so I don't have to deal that annoying JavaScript that keeps me from right-clicking!

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18169

There's an easy way arounnd that though. Press enter while you right click. I never tried it in mozilla but I know it works in IE.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18170

I don't run into this much, but when I do it's very annoying! Sometimes it displays that alert but still shows the context menu...

The Mozilla Suite will have this too.

I see Wren! How are you?

I just rebooted my server, now everything is going screwy on me. It always says that it has to do an integrety check so it takes long. Maybe remote reboots are not good.

Hey tak Doing good now, just getting over a bad sinus infection. Yuk!

heh. I just made the jump to norton systemworks 2004 as my updates for 2002 were about to run out. Honestly aside from the slightly prettier interface, I can't tell the difference. Though speed disk does seem a bit quicker, but that seems more of a patch thing than an upgrade.

oh wait there is another difference... activation

hehe, I'd switch, but I don't know of anything much better, and it took me a good amount of time and half a dozen restarts to get norton to the point where I can handle it...

I hate that now programs are time based and you have to upgrade. Playing with the clock sometimes fixes that, but not always.

Right now I'm messing around with MD5. What I want to end up having is a special database were you enter any Md5 key and it gives you the value. a to z and A to Z and numbers are easy, but special characters and mixing types is a bit tougher. $a = "a"; $a++; won't cut it.

I'm not going to go furhter as I want to find a more efficient way to create each entry.

heh, I just came back from taking a shower and noticed the IE icon on my desktop was missing. Which is kinda odd seeing as the IE icon isn't you regular icon [all spiffed up and made special by MS]. Then again it's not like I use IE anymore anyway

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18384

That happenned to me once, I had to go in internet options in the control panel to put it back (I used IE then). I made my own icon like that once in My Computer I should write a tutorial that shows how, if I can remember myself... Basically it was this weird {E432F4D23A42DF4E} type extenxion that you use and that same ID had to refer to something else.. bah I forget, and it's probably different in win2k.

I would never leave an IE icon on my desktop. Someone might accidentally use it instead of Firefox.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18389

I usually leave it on customer's computers, but I install mozilla, make it default, tweak it a bit (make sure popups are disabled, enable tabbed browsing etc...) and rename the icon to "mozilla internet" or sometimes "mozilla internet explorer" because people would not know what it is otherwise. I also tell them about it and the benifits instead of using IE. Those who listened have not needed my services so far because they probably have less spyware and hijacks and stuff.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18391

You could compose a little HTML page to make as the homepage... Links to some good Mozilla resources... Tell some advantages over IE... Give instructions on how to get IE back as the default... How to do X in Mozilla...

Not a bad idea, actually.

heh, like I wsaid I haven't really been missing it. I used to actually use that icon every now and again [for crapily designed sites that don't work in anythign else]. But I've got the OPen in IE extension now, so I don't have to worry about the .00000000001% of the time that I actually use IE.

Funny, eh? Do you mind if I tell other people:
Undefined said Undefined wsaid you haven't really been missing it. By now you do not do actually use that icon every now and again [for crapily designed sites that don't work in anythign else] anymore?And.
What is your real name?

I hardly see any sites that have the problem. Web developers are getting more aware of other browsers and how to make everything look good... The W3C is our friend.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18407

Yep nice to see.

But my school's video conference system is crap, it only works in IE, there's this section to download work, and after you download 3, it stops working and you need to close IE and open it and continue. Try downloading a 30 page document.....

I hate math class, forcing me to use IE only makes things worse.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18408

Hmm... You know... Gecko does support MathML.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:18409

No it's not that, it's just the interface of the site. It used java aplets and crap like that.
