CSS disable text selection

I agree with Someth Victory, you need to add a specific class to some elements you want to be unselectable.

Also, you may add this class in specific cases using javascript. Example here Making content unselectable with help of CSS.

Search input with an icon Bootstrap 4

Here is an input box with a search icon on the right.

  <div class="input-group">
      <input class="form-control py-2 border-right-0 border" type="search" placeholder="Search">
      <div class="input-group-append">
          <div class="input-group-text" id="btnGroupAddon2"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></div>
      </div>
  </div>

Here is an input box with a search icon on the left.

  <div class="input-group">
      <div class="input-group-prepend">
          <div class="input-group-text" id="btnGroupAddon2"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></div>
      </div>
      <input class="form-control py-2 border-right-0 border" type="search" placeholder="Search">
  </div>

the easiest way is to use position:absolute on both elements. You can absolutely position relative to the page, or you can absolutely position relative to a container div by setting the container div to position:relative

<div id="container" style="position:relative;">
    <div id="div1" style="position:absolute; top:0; left:0;"></div>
    <div id="div2" style="position:absolute; top:0; left:0;"></div>
</div>

Align a div to center

Following solution worked for me.

  .algncenterdiv {
    display: block;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    }

How to make flexbox items the same size?

None of these answers solved my problem, which was that the items weren't the same width in my makeshift flexbox table when it was shrunk to a width too small.

The solution for me was simply to put overflow: hidden; on the flex-grow: 1; cells.

Custom CSS for <audio> tag?

I discovered quite by accident (I was working with images at the time) that the box-shadow, border-radius and transitions work quite well with the bog-standard audio tag player. I have this working in Chrome, FF and Opera.

audio:hover, audio:focus, audio:active
{
-webkit-box-shadow: 15px 15px 20px rgba(0,0, 0, 0.4);
-moz-box-shadow: 15px 15px 20px rgba(0,0, 0, 0.4);
box-shadow: 15px 15px 20px rgba(0,0, 0, 0.4);
-webkit-transform: scale(1.05);
-moz-transform: scale(1.05);
transform: scale(1.05);
}

with:-

audio
{
-webkit-transition:all 0.5s linear;
-moz-transition:all 0.5s linear;
-o-transition:all 0.5s linear;
transition:all 0.5s linear;
-moz-box-shadow: 2px 2px 4px 0px #006773;
-webkit-box-shadow:  2px 2px 4px 0px #006773;
box-shadow: 2px 2px 4px 0px #006773;
-moz-border-radius:7px 7px 7px 7px ;
-webkit-border-radius:7px 7px 7px 7px ;
border-radius:7px 7px 7px 7px ;
}

I grant you it only "tarts it up a bit", but it makes them a sight more exciting than what's already there, and without doing MAJOR fannying about in JS.

NOT available in IE, unfortunately (not yet supporting the transition bit), but it seems to degrade nicely.

How to remove Firefox's dotted outline on BUTTONS as well as links?

In most cases without adding the !important to the CSS code, it won't work.

So, do not forget to add `!important`

a, a:active, a:focus{
    outline: none !important; /* Works in Firefox, Chrome, IE8 and above */
}

Or any other code:

button::-moz-focus-inner {
  border: 0 !important;
}

CSS selector for first element with class

To match your selector, the element must have a class name of red and must be the first child of its parent.

<div>
    <span class="red"></span> <!-- MATCH -->
</div>

<div>
    <span>Blah</span>
    <p class="red"></p> <!-- NO MATCH -->
</div>

<div>
    <span>Blah</span>
    <div><p class="red"></p></div> <!-- MATCH -->
</div>

How can I put CSS and HTML code in the same file?

Is this what you're looking for? You place you CSS between style tags in the HTML document header. I'm guessing for iPhone it's webkit so it should work.

<html>
<head>
    <style type="text/css">
    .title { color: blue; text-decoration: bold; text-size: 1em; }
    .author { color: gray; }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <p>
    <span class="title">La super bonne</span>
    <span class="author">proposée par Jérém</span>
    </p>
</body>
</html>

How can I control the width of a label tag?

Giving width to Label is not a proper way. you should take one div or table structure to manage this. but still if you don't want to change your whole code then you can use following code.

label {
  width:200px;
  float: left;
}

iPhone X / 8 / 8 Plus CSS media queries

If your page is missing meta[@name="viewport"] element within its DOM, then the following could be used to detect a mobile device:

@media only screen and (width: 980px), (hover: none) { … }

If you want to avoid false-positives with desktops that just magically have their viewport set to 980px like all the mobile browsers do, then a device-width test could also be added into the mix:

@media only screen and (max-device-width: 800px) and (width: 980px), (hover: none) { … }

Per the list at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Media_Queries/Using_media_queries, the new hover property would appear to be the final new way to detect that you've got yourself a mobile device that doesn't really do proper hover; it's only been introduced in 2018 with Firefox 64 (2018), although it's been supported since 2016 with Android Chrome 50 (2016), or even since 2014 with Chrome 38 (2014):

How to hide collapsible Bootstrap 4 navbar on click

The easiest way to do it using only Angular 2/4 template with no coding:

<nav class="navbar navbar-default" aria-expanded="false">
  <div class="container-wrapper">

    <div class="navbar-header">
      <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" (click)="isCollapsed = !isCollapsed">

        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
      </button>
    </div>

    <div class="navbar-collapse collapse no-transition" [attr.aria-expanded]="!isCollapsed" [ngClass]="{collapse: isCollapsed}">
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav" (click)="isCollapsed = !isCollapsed">
        <li [routerLinkActive]="['active']" [routerLinkActiveOptions]="{exact: true}"><a routerLink="/">Home</a></li>

Align div right in Bootstrap 3

The class pull-right is still there in Bootstrap 3 See the 'helper classes' here

pull-right is defined by

.pull-right {
  float: right !important;
}

without more info on styles and content, it's difficult to say.

It definitely pulls right in this JSBIN when the page is wider than 990px - which is when the col-md styling kicks in, Bootstrap 3 being mobile first and all.

Bootstrap 4

Note that for Bootstrap 4 .pull-right has been replaced with .float-right https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/pull-left-and-pull-right-classes-in-bootstrap-4/#:~:text=pull%2Dright%20classes%20have%20been,based%20on%20the%20Bootstrap%20Grid.

Which to use <div class="name"> or <div id="name">?

class is used when u want to set properties for a group of elements, but id can be set for only one element.

Allow a div to cover the whole page instead of the area within the container

Set the html and body tags height to 100% and remove the margin around the body:

html, body {
    height: 100%;
    margin: 0px; /* Remove the margin around the body */
}

Now set the position of your div to fixed:

#dimScreen
{
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    background:rgba(255,255,255,0.5);

    position: fixed;
    top: 0px;
    left: 0px;

    z-index: 1000; /* Now the div will be on top */
}

background-size in shorthand background property (CSS3)

Your jsfiddle uses background-image instead of background
It seems to be a case of "not supported by this browser yet".

This works in Opera : http://jsfiddle.net/ZNsbU/5/
But it doesn't work in FF5 nor IE8. (yay for outdated browsers :D )

Code :

body {
  background:url(http://www.google.com/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo3w.png) 400px 200px / 600px 400px no-repeat;
}

You could do it like this :

body {
    background:url(http://www.google.com/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo3w.png) 400px 400px no-repeat;
    background-size:20px 20px
}

Which works in FF5 and Opera but not in IE8.

How do I center list items inside a UL element?

I had a problem slimier to yours I this quick and its the best solution I have found so far.

What the output looks like

Shows what the output of the code looks like The borders are just to show the spacing and are not needed.

Html:

    <div class="center">
      <ul class="dots">
        <span>
          <li></li>
          <li></li>
          <li></li>
        </span>
      </ul>
    </div>

CSS:

    ul {list-style-type: none;}
    ul li{
        display: inline-block;
        padding: 2px;
        border: 2px solid black;
        border-radius: 5px;}
    .center{
        width: 100%;
        border: 3px solid black;}
    .dots{
        padding: 0px;
        border: 5px solid red;
        text-align: center;}
    span{
        width: 100%;
        border: 5px solid blue;}

Not everything here is needed to center the list items.

You can cut the css down to this to get the same effect:

    ul {list-style-type: none;}
    ul li{display: inline-block;}
    .center{width: 100%;}
    .dots{
        text-align: center;
        padding: 0px;}
    span{width: 100%;}

How to use relative/absolute paths in css URLs?

The URL is relative to the location of the CSS file, so this should work for you:

url('../../images/image.jpg')

The relative URL goes two folders back, and then to the images folder - it should work for both cases, as long as the structure is the same.

From https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS1/#url:

Partial URLs are interpreted relative to the source of the style sheet, not relative to the document

Thymeleaf: how to use conditionals to dynamically add/remove a CSS class

If you are looking to add or remove class accordingly if the url contains certain params or not .This is what you can do

<a th:href="@{/admin/home}"  th:class="${#httpServletRequest.requestURI.contains('home')} ? 'nav-link active' : 'nav-link'"  >

If the url contains 'home' then active class will be added and vice versa.

Bootstrap change carousel height

like Answers above, if you do bootstrap 4 just add few line of css to .carousel , carousel-inner ,carousel-item and img as follows

.carousel .carousel-inner{
height:500px
}
.carousel-inner .carousel-item img{
min-height:200px;
//prevent it from stretch in screen size < than 768px
object-fit:cover
}

@media(max-width:768px){
.carousel .carousel-inner{
//prevent it from adding a white space between carousel and container elements
height:auto
 }
}

MVC4 StyleBundle not resolving images

CssRewriteUrlTransform fixed my problem.
If your code still not loading images after using CssRewriteUrlTransform, then change your css filename's from:

.Include("~/Content/jquery/jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.css", new CssRewriteUrlTransform())

To:

.Include("~/Content/jquery/jquery-ui.css", new CssRewriteUrlTransform())

Someway .(dots) are not recognizing in url.

Using "word-wrap: break-word" within a table

You can try this:

td p {word-break:break-all;}

This, however, makes it appear like this when there's enough space, unless you add a <br> tag:

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

So, I would then suggest adding <br> tags where there are newlines, if possible.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

A CSS selector to get last visible div

It is not possible with CSS, however you could do this with jQuery.

JSFIDDLE DEMO

jQuery:

$('li').not(':hidden').last().addClass("red");

HTML:

<ul>
        <li>Item 1</li>
        <li>Item 2</li>
        <li>Item 3</li>
        <li class="hideme">Item 4</li>    
</ul>

CSS:

.hideme {
    display:none;
}

.red {
    color: red;
}

jQuery (previous solution):

var $items = $($("li").get().reverse());

$items.each(function() {

    if ($(this).css("display") != "none") {
        $(this).addClass("red");
        return false;
    }

});

CSS: Responsive way to center a fluid div (without px width) while limiting the maximum width?

This might sound really simplistic...

But this will center the div inside the div, exactly in the center in relation to left and right margin or parent container, but you can adjust percentage symmetrically on left and right.

margin-right: 10%;
margin-left: 10%;

Then you can adjust % to make it as wide as you want it.

iframe to Only Show a Certain Part of the Page

Assuming you are using an iframe to import content available to the public but not owned by you into your website, you can always use the page anchor to direct you iframe to load where you want it to.

First you create an iframe with the width and height needed to display the data.

<iframe src="http://www.mygreatsite.com/page2.html" width="200px" height="100px"></iframe>

Second install addon such as Show Anchors 2 for Firefox and use it to display all the page anchors on the page you would like display in your iframe. Find the anchor point you want your frame to use and copy the anchor location by right clicking on it.

(You can download and install the plugin here => https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/show-anchors-2/)

Third use the copied web address with anchor point as your iframe source. When the frame loads, it will show the page starting at the anchor point you specified.

<iframe src="http://www.mygreatsite.com/page2.html#anchorname_1" width="200px" height="100px"></iframe>

That is the condensed instruction list. Hope it helps!

Bootstrap full-width text-input within inline-form

border-radius not working

you may include bootstrap to your html file and you put it under the style file so if you do that bootstrap file will override the style file briefly like this

     // style file
     <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" />
     // bootstrap file
     <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css" />

the right way is this

    // bootstrap file
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css" />
    // style file
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" />

How to use vertical align in bootstrap

Maybe an old topic but if someone needs further help with this do the following for example (this puts the text in middle line of image if it has larger height then the text).

HTML:

<div class="row display-table">
    <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4 display-cell">
        img
    </div>
    <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-8 display-cell">
        text
    </div>
</div>

CSS:

.display-table{
    display: table;
    table-layout: fixed;
}

.display-cell{
    display: table-cell;
    vertical-align: middle;
    float: none;
}

The important thing that I missed out on was "float: none;" since it got float left from bootstrap col attributes.

Cheers!

Bootstrap fixed header and footer with scrolling body-content area in fluid-container

Add the following css to disable the default scroll:

body {
    overflow: hidden;
}

And change the #content css to this to make the scroll only on content body:

#content {
    max-height: calc(100% - 120px);
    overflow-y: scroll;
    padding: 0px 10%;
    margin-top: 60px;
}

img src SVG changing the styles with CSS

To expand on @gringo answer, the Javascript method described in other answers works, but requires the user to download unnecessary image files, and IMO, it bloats your code.

I think a better approach would be to to migrate all 1-color vector graphics to a webfont file. I've used Fort Awesome in the past, and it works great to combine your custom icons/images in SVG format, along with any 3rd party icons you may be using (Font Awesome, Bootstrap icons, etc.) into a single webfont file the user has to download. You can also customize it, so you only include the 3rd party icons you're using. This reduces the number of requests the page has to make, and you're overall page weight, especially if you're already including any 3rd party icons libraries.

If you prefer a more dev oriented option, you could Google "npm svg webfont", and use one of the node modules that's most appropriate for your environment.

Once, you've done either of those two options, then you could easily change the color via CSS, and most likely, you've sped up your site in the process.

Custom style to jquery ui dialogs

The solution only solves part of the problem, it may let you style the container and contents but doesn't let you change the titlebar. I developed a workaround of sorts but adding an id to the dialog div, then using jQuery .prev to change the style of the div which is the previous sibling of the dialog's div. This works because when jQueryUI creates the dialog, your original div becomes a sibling of the new container, but the title div is a the immediately previous sibling to your original div but neither the container not the title div has an id to simplify selecting the div.

HTML

<button id="dialog1" class="btn btn-danger">Warning</button>
<div title="Nothing here, really" id="nonmodal1">
  Nothing here
</div>

You can use CSS to style the main section of the dialog but not the title

.custom-ui-widget-header-warning {
  background: #EBCCCC;
  font-size: 1em;
}

You need some JS to style the title

$(function() {
                   $("#nonmodal1").dialog({
                     minWidth: 400,
                     minHeight: 'auto',
                     autoOpen: false,
                     dialogClass: 'custom-ui-widget-header-warning',
                     position: {
                       my: 'center',
                       at: 'left'
                     }
                   });

                   $("#dialog1").click(function() {
                     if ($("#nonmodal1").dialog("isOpen") === true) {
                       $("#nonmodal1").dialog("close");
                     } else {
                       $("#nonmodal1").dialog("open").prev().css('background','#D9534F');

                     }
                   });
    });

The example only shows simple styling (background) but you can make it as complex as you wish.

You can see it in action here:

How do I center an anchor element in CSS?

style="margin:0 auto; width:auto;" Try that.

How can I force WebKit to redraw/repaint to propagate style changes?

I would recommend a less hackish and more formal way to force a reflow: use forceDOMReflowJS. In your case, your code would look as follows.

sel = document.getElementById('my_id');
forceReflowJS( sel );
return false;

Fixed positioned div within a relative parent div

Sample solution. Check, if this is what you need.

Twitter bootstrap float div right

This does the trick, without the need to add an inline style

<div class="row-fluid">
    <div class="span6">
        <p>text left</p>
    </div>
    <div class="span6">
        <div class="pull-right">
            <p>text right</p>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

The answer is in nesting another <div> with the "pull-right" class. Combining the two classes won't work.

How can I replace text with CSS?

Based on mikemaccana’s answer, this worked for me

button {
  position: absolute;
  visibility: hidden;
}

button:before {
  content: "goodbye";

}

§ Absolute positioning

an element that is positioned absolutely is taken out of the flow and thus takes up no space when placing other elements.

How do I stretch a background image to cover the entire HTML element?

Not sure that stretching a background image is possible. If you find that it's not possible, or not reliable in all of your target browsers, you could try using a stretched img tag with z-index set lower, and position set to absolute so that other content appears on top of it.

Let us know what you end up doing.

Edit: What I suggested is basically what's in gabriel's link. So try that :)

Apply Calibri (Body) font to text

If there is space between the letters of the font, you need to use quote.

Equivalent of jQuery .hide() to set visibility: hidden

Here's one implementation, what works like $.prop(name[,value]) or $.attr(name[,value]) function. If b variable is filled, visibility is set according to that, and this is returned (allowing to continue with other properties), otherwise it returns visibility value.

jQuery.fn.visible = function (b) {
    if(b === undefined)
        return this.css('visibility')=="visible";
    else {
        this.css('visibility', b? 'visible' : 'hidden');
        return this;
    }
}

Example:

$("#result").visible(true).on('click',someFunction);
if($("#result").visible())

what's the easiest way to put space between 2 side-by-side buttons in asp.net

create a divider class as follows:

.divider{
    width:5px;
    height:auto;
    display:inline-block;
}

Then attach this to a div between the two buttons

<div style="text-align: center"> 
    <asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Submit" Width="89px" OnClick="btnSubmit_Click" />
    <div class="divider"/>
    <asp:Button ID="btnClear" runat="server" Text="Clear" Width="89px" OnClick="btnClear_Click" />
</div>

This is the best way as it avoids the box model, which can be a pain on older browsers, and doesn't add any extra characters that would be picked up by a screen reader, so it is better for readability.

It's good to have a number of these types of divs for certain scenarios (my most used one is vert5spacer, similar to this but puts a block div with height 5 and width auto for spacing out items in a form etc.

Select box arrow style

for any1 using ie8 and dont want to use a plugin i've made something inspired by Rohit Azad and Bacotasan's blog, i just added a span using JS to show the selected value.

the html:

<div class="styled-select">
   <select>
      <option>Here is the first option</option>
      <option>The second option</option>
   </select>
   <span>Here is the first option</span>
</div>

the css (i used only an arrow for BG but you could put a full image and drop the positioning):

.styled-select div
{
    display:inline-block;
    border: 1px solid darkgray;
    width:100px;
    background:url("/Style Library/Nifgashim/Images/drop_arrrow.png") no-repeat 10px 10px;
    position:relative;
}

.styled-select div select
{
    height: 30px;
    width: 100px;
    font-size:14px;
    font-family:ariel;

    -moz-opacity: 0.00;
    opacity: .00;
    filter: alpha(opacity=00);
}

.styled-select div span
{
    position: absolute;
    right: 10px;
    top: 6px;
    z-index: -5;
}

the js:

$(".styled-select select").change(function(e){
     $(".styled-select span").html($(".styled-select select").val());
});

CSS "and" and "or"

You can somehow reproduce the behavior of "OR" using & and :not.

SomeElement.SomeClass [data-statement="things are getting more complex"]  :not(:not(A):not(B))     {
    /* things aren't so complex for A or B */
}

UL has margin on the left

I don't see any margin or margin-left declarations for #footer-wrap li.

This ought to do the trick:

#footer-wrap ul,
#footer-wrap li {
    margin-left: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
}

Twitter bootstrap scrollable modal

I also added

.modal { position: absolute; }

to the stylesheet to allow the dialog to scroll, but if the user has moved down to the bottom of a long page the modal can end up hidden off the top of the visible area.

I understand this is no longer an issue in bootstrap 3, but looking for a relatively quick fix until we upgrade I ended up with the above plus calling the following before opening the modal

$('.modal').css('top', $(document).scrollTop() + 50);

Seems to be happy in FireFox, Chrome, IE10 8 & 7 (the browsers I had to hand)

CSS @font-face not working in ie

}
@font-face{ 
    font-family: MyFont_IE; src: url('myfont.eot'); 
}
.my_font{ 
    font-family: MyFont, MyFont_IE, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; 
}

Defined Edges With CSS3 Filter Blur

Having tackled this same problem myself today, I'd like to present a solution that (currently) works on the major browsers. Some of the other answers on this page did work once, but recent updates, whether it be browser or OS, have voided most/all of these answers.

The key is to place the image in a container, and to transform:scale that container out of it's overflow:hidden parent. Then, the blur gets applied to the img inside the container, instead of on the container itself.

Working Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/x2c6txk2/

    position : relative;
}

.img-holder {
    position  : absolute;
    left      : 0;
    top       : 0;
    bottom    : 0;
    right     : 0;
    transform : scale(1.2, 1.2);
}

    width          : 100%;
    height         : 100%;

How to set the margin or padding as percentage of height of parent container?

To make the child element positioned absolutely from its parent element you need to set relative position on the parent element AND absolute position on the child element.

Then on the child element 'top' is relative to the height of the parent. So you also need to 'translate' upward the child 50% of its own height.

Change Bootstrap input focus blue glow

You can use the .form-control selector to match all inputs. For example to change to red:

.form-control:focus {
  border-color: #FF0000;
  box-shadow: inset 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075), 0 0 8px rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.6);
}

Put it in your custom css file and load it after bootstrap.css. It will apply to all inputs including textarea, select etc...

Apply style to only first level of td tags

I guess you could try

table tr td { color: red; }
table tr td table tr td { color: black; }

body table tr td { color: red; }

where 'body' is a selector for your table's parent

But classes are most likely the right way to go here.

How to make a <svg> element expand or contract to its parent container?

Suppose I have an SVG which looks like this:

And I want to put it in a div and make it fill the div responsively. My way of doing it is as follows:

First I open the SVG file in an application like inkscape. In File->Document Properties I set the width of the document to 800px and and the height to 600px (you can choose other sizes). Then I fit the SVG into this document.

Then I save this file as a new SVG file and get the path data from this file. Now in HTML the code that does the magic is as follows:

<div id="containerId">    
    <svg
    id="svgId" 
    xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
    xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
    version="1.1"
    x="0"
    y="0"
    width="100%"
    height="100%"
    viewBox="0 0 800 600"
    preserveAspectRatio="none">
       <path d="m0 0v600h800v-600h-75.07031l-431 597.9707-292.445315-223.99609 269.548825-373.97461h-271.0332z" fill="#f00"/>
    </svg>
</div>

Note that width and height of SVG are both set to 100%, since we want it to fill the container vertically and horizontally ,but width and height of the viewBox are the same as the width and height of the document in inkscape which is 800px X 600px. The next thing you need to do is set the preserveAspectRatio to "none". If you need to have more information on this attribute here's a good link. And that's all there is to it.

One more thing is that this code works on almost all the major browsers even the old ones but on some versions of android and ios you need to use some javascrip/jQuery code to keep it consistent. I use the following in document ready and resize functions:

$('#svgId').css({
    'width': $('#containerId').width() + 'px',
    'height': $('#containerId').height() + 'px'
});

Hope it helps!

Remove ALL styling/formatting from hyperlinks

if you state a.redLink{color:red;} then to keep this on hover and such add a.redLink:hover{color:red;} This will make sure no other hover states will change the color of your links

How do you get centered content using Twitter Bootstrap?

For Bootstrap version 3.1.1 and above, the best class for centering the content is the .center-block helper class.

Disable LESS-CSS Overwriting calc()

Apart from using an escaped value as described in my other answer, it is also possible to fix this issue by enabling the Strict Math setting.

With strict math on, only maths that are inside unnecessary parentheses will be processed, so your code:

width: calc(100% - 200px);

Would work as expected with the strict math option enabled.

However, note that Strict Math is applied globally, not only inside calc(). That means, if you have:

font-size: 12px + 2px;

The math will no longer be processed by Less -- it will output font-size: 12px + 2px which is, obviously, invalid CSS. You'd have to wrap all maths that should be processed by Less in (previously unnecessary) parentheses:

font-size: (12px + 2px);

Strict Math is a nice option to consider when starting a new project, otherwise you'd possibly have to rewrite a good part of the code base. For the most common use cases, the escaped string approach described in the other answer is more suitable.

Progress Bar with HTML and CSS

There is a tutorial for creating an HTML5 progress bar here. If you don't want to use HTML5 methods or you are looking for an all-browser solution, try this code:

_x000D_

<div style="width: 150px; height: 25px; background-color: #dbdbdb;">
  <div style="height: 25px; width:87%; background-color: gold">&nbsp;</div>
</div>

_x000D_

You can change the color GOLD to any progress bar color and #dbdbdb to the background-color of your progress bar.

Can a CSS class inherit one or more other classes?

Less and Sass are CSS pre-processors which extend CSS language in valuable ways. Just one of many improvements they offer is just the option you're looking for. There are some very good answers with Less and I will add Sass solution.

Sass has extend option which allows one class to be fully extended to another one. More about extend you can read in this article

Twitter bootstrap 3 two columns full height

You can achieve what you want with the padding-bottom: 100%; margin-bottom: -100%; trick, has you can see in this fiddle.

I change your HTML a little bit, but you can achieve the same result with your own HTML with the following code

.col-md-9 {
    overflow: hidden;
}

.col-md-3 {
    padding-bottom: 100%;
    margin-bottom: -100%;
}

How to vertically center a container in Bootstrap?

Vertically align center with bootstrap 4

Add this class: d-flex align-items-center to the element

Example

If you had this:

<div class="col-3">

change it to this:

<div class="col-3 d-flex align-items-center>

What is the correct way to do a CSS Wrapper?

Most basic example (live example here):

CSS:

    #wrapper {
        width: 500px;
        margin: 0 auto;
    }

HTML:

    <body>
        <div id="wrapper">
            Piece of text inside a 500px width div centered on the page
        </div>
    </body>

How the principle works:

Create your wrapper and assign it a certain width. Then apply an automatic horizontal margin to it by using margin: 0 auto; or margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;. The automatic margins make sure your element is centered.

Why is "cursor:pointer" effect in CSS not working

Short answer is that you need to change the z-index so that #firstdiv is considered on top of the other divs.

Add image in title bar

That method will not work. The <title> only supports plain text. You will need to create an .ico image with the filename of favicon.ico and save it into the root folder of your site (where your default page is).

Alternatively, you can save the icon where ever you wish and call it whatever you want, but simply insert the following code into the <head> section of your HTML and reference your icon:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="your_image_path_and_name.ico" />

You can use Photoshop (with a plug in) or GIMP (free) to create an .ico file, or you can just use IcoFX, which is my personal favourite as it is really easy to use and does a great job (you can get an older version of the software for free from download.com).

Update 1: You can also use a number of online tools to create favicons such as ConvertIcon, which I've used successfully. There are other free online tools available now too, which do the same (accessible by a simple Google search), but also generate other icons such as the Windows 8/10 Start Menu icons and iOS App Icons.

Update 2: You can also use .png images as icons providing IE11 is the only version of IE you need to support. You just need to reference them using the HTML code above. Note that IE10 and older still require .ico files.

Update 3: You can now use Emoji characters in the title field. On Windows 10, it should generally fall back and use the Segoe UI Emoji font and display nicely, however you'll need to test and see how other systems support and display your chosen emoji, as not all devices may have the same Emoji available.

Responsive css styles on mobile devices ONLY

Why not use a media query range.

I'm currently working on a responsive layout for my employer and the ranges I'm using are as follows:

You have your main desktop styles in the body of the CSS file (1024px and above) and then for specific screen sizes I'm using:

@media all and (min-width:960px) and (max-width: 1024px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

@media all and (min-width:801px) and (max-width: 959px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

@media all and (min-width:769px) and (max-width: 800px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

@media all and (min-width:569px) and (max-width: 768px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

@media all and (min-width:481px) and (max-width: 568px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

@media all and (min-width:321px) and (max-width: 480px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

@media all and (min-width:0px) and (max-width: 320px) {
  /* put your css styles in here */
}

This will cover pretty much all devices being used - I would concentrate on getting the styling correct for the sizes at the end of the range (i.e. 320, 480, 568, 768, 800, 1024) as for all the others they will just be responsive to the size available.

Also, don't use px anywhere - use em's or %.

Nested rows with bootstrap grid system?

Bootstrap Version 3.x

As always, read Bootstrap's great documentation:

3.x Docs: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/css/#grid-nesting

Make sure the parent level row is inside of a .container element. Whenever you'd like to nest rows, just open up a new .row inside of your column.

Here's a simple layout to work from:

<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-xs-6">
            <div class="big-box">image</div>
        </div>
        <div class="col-xs-6">
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-xs-6"><div class="mini-box">1</div></div>
                <div class="col-xs-6"><div class="mini-box">2</div></div>
                <div class="col-xs-6"><div class="mini-box">3</div></div>
                <div class="col-xs-6"><div class="mini-box">4</div></div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Bootstrap Version 4.0

4.0 Docs: http://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/layout/grid/#nesting

Here's an updated version for 4.0, but you should really read the entire docs section on the grid so you understand how to leverage this powerful feature

<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col big-box">
      image
    </div>

    <div class="col">
      <div class="row">
        <div class="col mini-box">1</div>
        <div class="col mini-box">2</div>
      </div>
      <div class="row">
        <div class="col mini-box">3</div>
        <div class="col mini-box">4</div>
      </div>
    </div>

  </div>

how to get bounding box for div element in jquery

As this is specifically tagged for jQuery -

$("#myElement")[0].getBoundingClientRect();

$("#myElement").get(0).getBoundingClientRect();

(These are functionally identical, in some older browsers .get() was slightly faster)

Note that if you try to get the values via jQuery calls then it will not take into account any css transform values, which can give unexpected results...

Note 2: In jQuery 3.0 it has changed to using the proper getBoundingClientRect() calls for its own dimension calls (see the jQuery Core 3.0 Upgrade Guide) - which means that the other jQuery answers will finally always be correct - but only when using the new jQuery version - hence why it's called a breaking change...

SASS - use variables across multiple files

Create an index.scss and there you can import all file structure you have. I will paste you my index from an enterprise project, maybe it will help other how to structure files in css:

@import 'base/_reset';

@import 'helpers/_variables';
@import 'helpers/_mixins';
@import 'helpers/_functions';
@import 'helpers/_helpers';
@import 'helpers/_placeholders';

@import 'base/_typography';

@import 'pages/_versions';
@import 'pages/_recording';
@import 'pages/_lists';
@import 'pages/_global';

@import 'forms/_buttons';
@import 'forms/_inputs';
@import 'forms/_validators';
@import 'forms/_fieldsets';

@import 'sections/_header';
@import 'sections/_navigation';
@import 'sections/_sidebar-a';
@import 'sections/_sidebar-b';
@import 'sections/_footer';

@import 'vendors/_ui-grid';

@import 'components/_modals';
@import 'components/_tooltip';
@import 'components/_tables';
@import 'components/_datepickers';

And you can watch them with gulp/grunt/webpack etc, like:

gulpfile.js

// SASS Task

var gulp = require('gulp');
var sass = require('gulp-sass');
//var concat = require('gulp-concat');
var uglifycss = require('gulp-uglifycss');
var sourcemaps = require('gulp-sourcemaps');

gulp.task('styles', function(){
    return gulp
            .src('sass/**/*.scss')
            .pipe(sourcemaps.init())
            .pipe(sass().on('error', sass.logError))
            .pipe(concat('styles.css'))
            .pipe(uglifycss({
                "maxLineLen": 80,
                "uglyComments": true
            }))
            .pipe(sourcemaps.write('.'))
            .pipe(gulp.dest('./build/css/'));
});

gulp.task('watch', function () {
    gulp.watch('sass/**/*.scss', ['styles']);
});

gulp.task('default', ['watch']);

Add border-bottom to table row <tr>

You can use the box-shadow property to fake a border of a tr element. Adjust Y position of box-shadow (below represented as 2px) to adjust thickness.

tr {
  -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 2px 0px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.99);
  -moz-box-shadow: 0px 2px 0px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.99);
  box-shadow: 0px 2px 0px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.99);
}

How to get table cells evenly spaced?

If you want all your columns a fixed size, you could use CSS:

td.PerformanceCell
{
    width: 100px;
}

Or better, use th.TableHeader (I didn't notice that the first time around).

Make column fixed position in bootstrap

Updated for Bootstrap 4

Bootstrap 4 now includes a position-fixed class for this purpose so there is no need for additional CSS...

<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-lg-3">
            <div class="position-fixed">
                Fixed content
            </div>
        </div>
        <div class="col-lg-9">
            Normal scrollable content
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Adding asterisk to required fields in Bootstrap 3

This CSS worked for me:

.form-group.required.control-label:before{
   color: red;
   content: "*";
   position: absolute;
   margin-left: -10px;
}

and this HTML:

<div class="form-group required control-label">
  <label for="emailField">Email</label>
  <input type="email" class="form-control" id="emailField" placeholder="Type Your Email Address Here" />
</div>

How do you add CSS with Javascript?

The solution by Ben Blank wouldn't work in IE8 for me.

However this did work in IE8

function addCss(cssCode) {
var styleElement = document.createElement("style");
  styleElement.type = "text/css";
  if (styleElement.styleSheet) {
    styleElement.styleSheet.cssText = cssCode;
  } else {
    styleElement.appendChild(document.createTextNode(cssCode));
  }
  document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(styleElement);
}

Check if an element contains a class in JavaScript?

Try this one:

document.getElementsByClassName = function(cl) {
   var retnode = [];
   var myclass = new RegExp('\\b'+cl+'\\b');
   var elem = this.getElementsByTagName('*');
   for (var i = 0; i < elem.length; i++) {
       var classes = elem[i].className;
       if (myclass.test(classes)) retnode.push(elem[i]);
   }
    return retnode;
};

Change a HTML5 input's placeholder color with CSS

For Bootstrap users, if you are using class="form-control", there may be a CSS specificity issue. You should get a higher priority:

.form-control::-webkit-input-placeholder {
    color: red;
}
//.. and other browsers

Or if you are using Less:

.form-control{
    .placeholder(red);
}

Can I have multiple :before pseudo-elements for the same element?

In CSS2.1, an element can only have at most one of any kind of pseudo-element at any time. (This means an element can have both a :before and an :after pseudo-element — it just cannot have more than one of each kind.)

As a result, when you have multiple :before rules matching the same element, they will all cascade and apply to a single :before pseudo-element, as with a normal element. In your example, the end result looks like this:

.circle.now:before {
    content: "Now";
    font-size: 19px;
    color: black;
}

As you can see, only the content declaration that has highest precedence (as mentioned, the one that comes last) will take effect — the rest of the declarations are discarded, as is the case with any other CSS property.

This behavior is described in the Selectors section of CSS2.1:

Pseudo-elements behave just like real elements in CSS with the exceptions described below and elsewhere.

This implies that selectors with pseudo-elements work just like selectors for normal elements. It also means the cascade should work the same way. Strangely, CSS2.1 appears to be the only reference; neither css3-selectors nor css3-cascade mention this at all, and it remains to be seen whether it will be clarified in a future specification.

If an element can match more than one selector with the same pseudo-element, and you want all of them to apply somehow, you will need to create additional CSS rules with combined selectors so that you can specify exactly what the browser should do in those cases. I can't provide a complete example including the content property here, since it's not clear for instance whether the symbol or the text should come first. But the selector you need for this combined rule is either .circle.now:before or .now.circle:before — whichever selector you choose is personal preference as both selectors are equivalent, it's only the value of the content property that you will need to define yourself.

If you still need a concrete example, see my answer to this similar question.

The legacy css3-content specification contains a section on inserting multiple ::before and ::after pseudo-elements using a notation that's compatible with the CSS2.1 cascade, but note that that particular document is obsolete — it hasn't been updated since 2003, and no one has implemented that feature in the past decade. The good news is that the abandoned document is actively undergoing a rewrite in the guise of css-content-3 and css-pseudo-4. The bad news is that the multiple pseudo-elements feature is nowhere to be found in either specification, presumably owing, again, to lack of implementer interest.

Vertically aligning text next to a radio button

Use it inside a label. Use vertical-align to set it to various values -- bottom, baseline, middle etc.

http://jsfiddle.net/UnA6j/5/

CSS: styled a checkbox to look like a button, is there a hover?

#ck-button:hover {
    background:red;
}

CSS Change List Item Background Color with Class

The ul.nav li is more restrictive and so takes precedence, try this:

ul.nav li.selected {  
  background-color:red; 
}

adding css class to multiple elements

You need to qualify the a part of the selector too:

.button input, .button a {
    //css stuff here
}

Basically, when you use the comma to create a group of selectors, each individual selector is completely independent. There is no relationship between them.

Your original selector therefore matched "all elements of type 'input' that are descendants of an element with the class name 'button', and all elements of type 'a'".

2 column div layout: right column with fixed width, left fluid

I'd like to suggest a yet-unmentioned solution: use CSS3's calc() to mix % and px units. calc() has excellent support nowadays, and it allows for fast construction of quite complex layouts.

Here's a JSFiddle link for the code below.

HTML:

<div class="sidebar">
  sidebar fixed width
</div>
<div class="content">
  content flexible width
</div>

CSS:

.sidebar {
    width: 180px;
    float: right;
    background: green;
}

.content {
    width: calc(100% - 180px);
    background: orange;
}

And here's another JSFiddle demonstrating this concept applied to a more complex layout. I used SCSS here since its variables allow for flexible and self-descriptive code, but the layout can be easily re-created in pure CSS if having "hard-coded" values is not an issue.

Javascript ES6/ES5 find in array and change

Whereas most of the existing answers are great, I would like to include an answer using a traditional for loop, which should also be considered here. The OP requests an answer which is ES5/ES6 compatible, and the traditional for loop applies :)

The problem with using array functions in this scenario, is that they don't mutate objects, but in this case, mutation is a requirement. The performance gain of using a traditional for loop is just a (huge) bonus.

const findThis = 2;
const items = [{id:1, ...}, {id:2, ...}, {id:3, ...}];

for (let i = 0, l = items.length; i < l; ++i) {
  if (items[i].id === findThis) {
    items[i].iAmChanged = true;
    break;
  }
}

Although I am a great fan of array functions, don't let them be the only tool in your toolbox. If the purpose is mutating the array, they are not the best fit.

How to manage exceptions thrown in filters in Spring?

It's strange because @ControllerAdvice should works, are you catching the correct Exception?

@ControllerAdvice
public class GlobalDefaultExceptionHandler {

    @ResponseBody
    @ExceptionHandler(value = DataAccessException.class)
    public String defaultErrorHandler(HttpServletResponse response, DataAccessException e) throws Exception {
       response.setStatus(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.value());
       //Json return
    }
}

Also try to catch this exception in CorsFilter and send 500 error, something like this

@ExceptionHandler(DataAccessException.class)
@ResponseBody
public String handleDataException(DataAccessException ex, HttpServletResponse response) {
    response.setStatus(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.value());
    //Json return
}

Using '<%# Eval("item") %>'; Handling Null Value and showing 0 against

Moreover, you can use (x = Eval("item") ?? 0) in this case.

How to make a HTML Page in A4 paper size page(s)?

It's entirely possible to set your layout to assume the proportions of an a4 page. You would only have to set width and height accordingly (possibly check with window.innerHeight and window.innerWidth although I'm not sure if that is reliable).

The tricky part is with printing A4. Javascript for example only supports printing pages rudimentarily with the window.print method. As @Prutswonder suggested creating a PDF from the webpage probably is the most sophisticated way of doing this (other than supplying PDF documentation in the first place). However, this is not as trivial as one might think. Here's a link that has a description of an all open source Java class to create PDFs from HTML: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-04-2006/jw-0410-html.html .

Obviously once you have created a PDF with A4 proportions printing it will result in a clean A4 print of your page. Whether that's worth the time investment is another question.

jQuery DataTables: control table width

None of the solutions here worked for me. Even the example on the datatables homepage did not work hence to the initialization of the datatable in the show option.

I found a solution to the problem. The trick is to use the activate option for tabs and to call fnAdjustColumnSizing() on the visible table:

$(function () {

// INIT TABS WITH DATATABLES
$("#TabsId").tabs({
    activate: function (event, ui) {
        var oTable = $('div.dataTables_scrollBody>table:visible', ui.panel).dataTable();
        if (oTable.length > 0) {
            oTable.fnAdjustColumnSizing();
        }
    }
});

// INIT DATATABLES
// options for datatables
var optDataTables = {
    "sScrollY": "200px",
    "bScrollCollapse": true,
    "bPaginate": false,
    "bJQueryUI": true,
    "aoColumnDefs": [
        { "sWidth": "10%", "aTargets": [-1] }
    ]
};
// initialize data table
$('table').dataTable(optDataTables);

});

@Directive vs @Component in Angular

If you refer the official angular docs

https://angular.io/guide/attribute-directives

There are three kinds of directives in Angular:

Components—directives with a template.
Structural directives—change the DOM layout by adding and removing DOM elements. e.g *ngIf
Attribute directives—change the appearance or behavior of an element, component, or another directive. e.g [ngClass].

As the Application grows we find difficulty in maintaining all these codes. For reusability purpose, we separate our logic in smart components and dumb components and we use directives (structural or attribute) to make changes in the DOM.

Column calculated from another column?

MySQL 5.7 supports computed columns. They call it "Generated Columns" and the syntax is a little weird, but it supports the same options I see in other databases.

plot data from CSV file with matplotlib

According to the docs numpy.loadtxt is

a fast reader for simply formatted files. The genfromtxt function provides more sophisticated handling of, e.g., lines with missing values.

so there are only a few options to handle more complicated files. As mentioned numpy.genfromtxt has more options. So as an example you could use

import numpy as np
data = np.genfromtxt('e:\dir1\datafile.csv', delimiter=',', skip_header=10,
                     skip_footer=10, names=['x', 'y', 'z'])

to read the data and assign names to the columns (or read a header line from the file with names=True) and than plot it with

ax1.plot(data['x'], data['y'], color='r', label='the data')

I think numpy is quite well documented now. You can easily inspect the docstrings from within ipython or by using an IDE like spider if you prefer to read them rendered as HTML.

How to get start and end of previous month in VB

    Return tdate.AddDays(-tdate.Day)
End Function

Usage:

'Get End of Month of Previous Month - Pass today's date
EOM = GetEOMPrev(Date.Today)

'Get First of Month of Previous Month - Pass date just calculated
FOM = GetFOMPrev(EOM)

How to tell if tensorflow is using gpu acceleration from inside python shell?

You have some options to test whether GPU acceleration is being used by your TensorFlow installation.

You can type in the following commands in three different platforms.

import tensorflow as tf
sess = tf.Session(config=tf.ConfigProto(log_device_placement=True))

Jupyter Notebook - Check the console which is running the Jupyter Notebook. You will be able to see the GPU being used.
Python Shell - You will be able to directly see the output. (Note- do not assign the output of the second command to the variable 'sess'; if that helps).
Spyder - Type in the following command in the console.

import tensorflow as tf tf.test.is_gpu_available()

Is there a way to pass optional parameters to a function?

You can specify a default value for the optional argument with something that would never passed to the function and check it with the is operator:

class _NO_DEFAULT:
    def __repr__(self):return "<no default>"
_NO_DEFAULT = _NO_DEFAULT()

def func(optional= _NO_DEFAULT):
    if optional is _NO_DEFAULT:
        print("the optional argument was not passed")
    else:
        print("the optional argument was:",optional)

then as long as you do not do func(_NO_DEFAULT) you can be accurately detect whether the argument was passed or not, and unlike the accepted answer you don't have to worry about side effects of ** notation:

# these two work the same as using **
func()
func(optional=1)

# the optional argument can be positional or keyword unlike using **
func(1) 

#this correctly raises an error where as it would need to be explicitly checked when using **
func(invalid_arg=7)

How to set thymeleaf th:field value from other variable

It has 2 possible solutions:

1) You can set it in the view by javascript... (not recomended)

<input class="form-control"
       type="text"
       id="tbFormControll"
       th:field="*{clientName}"/>

<script type="text/javascript">
        document.getElementById("tbFormControll").value = "default";
</script>

2) Or the better solution is to set the value in the model, that you attach to the view in GET operation by a controller. You can also change the value in the controller, just make a Java object from $client.name and call setClientName.

public class FormControllModel {
    ...
    private String clientName = "default";
    public String getClientName () {
        return clientName;
    }
    public void setClientName (String value) {
        clientName = value;
    }
    ...
}

I hope it helps.

ASP.Net MVC - Read File from HttpPostedFileBase without save

A slight change to Thangamani Palanisamy answer, which allows the Binary reader to be disposed and corrects the input length issue in his comments.

string result = string.Empty;

using (BinaryReader b = new BinaryReader(file.InputStream))
{
  byte[] binData = b.ReadBytes(file.ContentLength);
  result = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(binData);
}

MVC Return Partial View as JSON

You can extract the html string from the PartialViewResult object, similar to the answer to this thread:

Render a view as a string

PartialViewResult and ViewResult both derive from ViewResultBase, so the same method should work on both.

Using the code from the thread above, you would be able to use:

public ActionResult ReturnSpecialJsonIfInvalid(AwesomenessModel model)
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        if(Request.IsAjaxRequest())
            return PartialView("NotEvil", model);
        return View(model)
    }
    if(Request.IsAjaxRequest())
    {
        return Json(new { error = true, message = RenderViewToString(PartialView("Evil", model))});
    }
    return View(model);
}

undefined reference to `WinMain@16'

filemtime "warning stat failed for"

I think the problem is the realpath of the file. For example your script is working on './', your file is inside the directory './xml'. So better check if the file exists or not, before you get filemtime or unlink it:

  function deleteOldFiles(){
    if ($handle = opendir('./xml')) {
        while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 

            if(preg_match("/^.*\.(xml|xsl)$/i", $file)){
              $fpath = 'xml/'.$file;
              if (file_exists($fpath)) {
                $filelastmodified = filemtime($fpath);

                if ( (time() - $filelastmodified ) > 24*3600){
                    unlink($fpath);
                }
              }
            }
        }
        closedir($handle); 
    }
  }

Search a whole table in mySQL for a string

If you're using Sublime, you can easily generate hundreds or thousands of lines using Text Pastry in conjunction with multiple line selection and Emmet.

So in my case I set the document type to html, then typed div*249, hit tab and Emmet creates 249 empty divs. Then using multiple selection I typed col_id_ in each one and triggered Text Pastry to insert an incremental id number. Then with multiple selection again you can delete the div markup and replace it with the MySQL syntax.

How to sort an array of objects with jquery or javascript

the sort method contains an optional argument to pass a custom compare function.

Assuming you wanted an array of arrays:

var arr = [[3, "Mike", 20],[5, "Alex", 15]];

function compareName(a, b)
{

  if (a[1] < b[1]) return -1;
  if (a[1] > b[1]) return 1;
  return 0;
}
arr.sort(compareName);

Otherwise if you wanted an array of objects, you could do:

function compareName(a, b)
{

  if (a.name < b.name) return -1;
  if (a.name > b.name) return 1;
  return 0;
}

asp.net validation to make sure textbox has integer values

or if in Python 3.x:

filename = input('Enter a file name: ')

Where does SVN client store user authentication data?

I know I'm uprising a very old topic, but after a couple of hours struggling with this very problem and not finding a solution anywhere else, I think this is a good place to put an answer.

We have some Build Servers WindowsXP based and found this very problem: svn command line client is not caching auth credentials.

We finally found out that we are using Cygwin's svn client! not a "native" Windows. So... this client stores all the auth credentials in /home/<user>/.subversion/auth

This /home directory in Cygwin, in our installation is in c:\cygwin\home. AND: the problem was that the Windows user that is running svn did never ever "logged in" in Cygwin, and so there was no /home/<user> directory.

A simple "bash -ls" from a Windows command terminal created the directory, and after the first access to our SVN server with interactive prompting for access credentials, alás, they got cached.

So if you are using Cygwin's svn client, be sure to have a "home" directory created for the local Windows user.

Plot Normal distribution with Matplotlib

Assuming you're getting norm from scipy.stats, you probably just need to sort your list:

import numpy as np
import scipy.stats as stats
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

h = [186, 176, 158, 180, 186, 168, 168, 164, 178, 170, 189, 195, 172,
     187, 180, 186, 185, 168, 179, 178, 183, 179, 170, 175, 186, 159,
     161, 178, 175, 185, 175, 162, 173, 172, 177, 175, 172, 177, 180]
h.sort()
hmean = np.mean(h)
hstd = np.std(h)
pdf = stats.norm.pdf(h, hmean, hstd)
plt.plot(h, pdf) # including h here is crucial

And so I get: enter image description here

Why doesn't [01-12] range work as expected?

A character class in regular expressions, denoted by the [...] syntax, specifies the rules to match a single character in the input. As such, everything you write between the brackets specify how to match a single character.

Your pattern, [01-12] is thus broken down as follows:

0 - match the single digit 0
or, 1-1, match a single digit in the range of 1 through 1
or, 2, match a single digit 2

So basically all you're matching is 0, 1 or 2.

In order to do the matching you want, matching two digits, ranging from 01-12 as numbers, you need to think about how they will look as text.

You have:

01-09 (ie. first digit is 0, second digit is 1-9)
10-12 (ie. first digit is 1, second digit is 0-2)

You will then have to write a regular expression for that, which can look like this:

  +-- a 0 followed by 1-9
  |
  |      +-- a 1 followed by 0-2
  |      |
<-+--> <-+-->
0[1-9]|1[0-2]
      ^
      |
      +-- vertical bar, this roughly means "OR" in this context

Note that trying to combine them in order to get a shorter expression will fail, by giving false positive matches for invalid input.

For instance, the pattern [0-1][0-9] would basically match the numbers 00-19, which is a bit more than what you want.

I tried finding a definite source for more information about character classes, but for now all I can give you is this Google Query for Regex Character Classes. Hopefully you'll be able to find some more information there to help you.

Adding space/padding to a UILabel

Easy way

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

        self.view.addSubview(makeLabel("my title",x: 0, y: 100, w: 320, h: 30))
    }

    func makeLabel(title:String, x:CGFloat, y:CGFloat, w:CGFloat, h:CGFloat)->UILabel{
        var myLabel : UILabel = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(x,y,w,h))
        myLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Right

        // inser last char to right
        var titlePlus1char = "\(title)1"
        myLabel.text = titlePlus1char
        var titleSize:Int = count(titlePlus1char)-1

        myLabel.textColor = UIColor(red:1.0, green:1.0,blue:1.0,alpha:1.0)
        myLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 214/255, green: 167/255, blue: 0/255,alpha:1.0)


        // create myMutable String
        var myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString()

        // create myMutable font
        myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: titlePlus1char, attributes: [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 20)!])

        // set margin size
        myMutableString.addAttribute(NSFontAttributeName, value: UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 10)!, range: NSRange(location: titleSize,length: 1))

        // set last char to alpha 0
        myMutableString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor(red:1.0, green:1.0,blue:1.0,alpha:0), range: NSRange(location: titleSize,length: 1))

        myLabel.attributedText = myMutableString

        return myLabel
    }


    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()

How to measure elapsed time

Per the Android docs SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() is the recommend basis for general purpose interval timing. This is because, per the documentation, elapsedRealtime() is guaranteed to be monotonic, [...], so is the recommend basis for general purpose interval timing.

The SystemClock documentation has a nice overview of the various time methods and the applicable use cases for them.

SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() and SystemClock.elapsedRealtimeNanos() are the best bet for calculating general purpose elapsed time.
SystemClock.uptimeMillis() and System.nanoTime() are another possibility, but unlike the recommended methods, they don't include time in deep sleep. If this is your desired behavior then they are fine to use. Otherwise stick with elapsedRealtime().
Stay away from System.currentTimeMillis() as this will return "wall" clock time. Which is unsuitable for calculating elapsed time as the wall clock time may jump forward or backwards. Many things like NTP clients can cause wall clock time to jump and skew. This will cause elapsed time calculations based on currentTimeMillis() to not always be accurate.

When the game starts:

long startTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();

When the game ends:

long endTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
long elapsedMilliSeconds = endTime - startTime;
double elapsedSeconds = elapsedMilliSeconds / 1000.0;

Also, Timer() is a best effort timer and will not always be accurate. So there will be an accumulation of timing errors over the duration of the game. To more accurately display interim time, use periodic checks to System.currentTimeMillis() as the basis of the time sent to setText(...).

Also, instead of using Timer, you might want to look into using TimerTask, this class is designed for what you want to do. The only problem is that it counts down instead of up, but that can be solved with simple subtraction.

How to generate entire DDL of an Oracle schema (scriptable)?

To generate the DDL script for an entire SCHEMA i.e. a USER, you could use dbms_metadata.get_ddl.

Execute the following script in SQL*Plus created by Tim Hall:

How to filter array in subdocument with MongoDB

Use $filter aggregation

Selects a subset of the array to return based on the specified condition. Returns an array with only those elements that match the condition. The returned elements are in the original order.

db.test.aggregate([
    {$match: {"list.a": {$gt:3}}}, // <-- match only the document which have a matching element
    {$project: {
        list: {$filter: {
            input: "$list",
            as: "list",
            cond: {$gt: ["$$list.a", 3]} //<-- filter sub-array based on condition
        }}
    }}
]);

How to Get Element By Class in JavaScript?

When some elements lack ID, I use jQuery like this:

$(document).ready(function()
{
    $('.myclass').attr('id', 'myid');
});

This might be a strange solution, but maybe someone find it useful.

How to convert a "dd/mm/yyyy" string to datetime in SQL Server?

SELECT convert(datetime, '23/07/2009', 103)

"The system cannot find the file specified"

The most common reason could be the database connection string. You have to change the connection string attachDBFile=|DataDirectory|file_name.mdf. there might be problem in host name which would be (local),localhost or .\sqlexpress.

:last-child not working as expected?

The last-child selector is used to select the last child element of a parent. It cannot be used to select the last child element with a specific class under a given parent element.

The other part of the compound selector (which is attached before the :last-child) specifies extra conditions which the last child element must satisfy in-order for it to be selected. In the below snippet, you would see how the selected elements differ depending on the rest of the compound selector.

_x000D_

.parent :last-child{ /* this will select all elements which are last child of .parent */_x000D_
  font-weight: bold;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.parent div:last-child{ /* this will select the last child of .parent only if it is a div*/_x000D_
  background: crimson;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.parent div.child-2:last-child{ /* this will select the last child of .parent only if it is a div and has the class child-2*/_x000D_
  color: beige;_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<div class='parent'>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div>Child w/o class</div>_x000D_
</div>_x000D_
<div class='parent'>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child-2'>Child w/o class</div>_x000D_
</div>_x000D_
<div class='parent'>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <div class='child'>Child</div>_x000D_
  <p>Child w/o class</p>_x000D_
</div>

_x000D_

To answer your question, the below would style the last child li element with background color as red.

li:last-child{
    background-color: red;
}

But the following selector would not work for your markup because the last-child does not have the class='complete' even though it is an li.

li.complete:last-child{
    background-color: green;
}

It would have worked if (and only if) the last li in your markup also had class='complete'.

To address your query in the comments:

@Harry I find it rather odd that: .complete:last-of-type does not work, yet .complete:first-of-type does work, regardless of it's position it's parents element. Thanks for your help.

The selector .complete:first-of-type works in the fiddle because it (that is, the element with class='complete') is still the first element of type li within the parent. Try to add <li>0</li> as the first element under the ul and you will find that first-of-type also flops. This is because the first-of-type and last-of-type selectors select the first/last element of each type under the parent.

Refer to the answer posted by BoltClock, in this thread for more details about how the selector works. That is as comprehensive as it gets :)

not:first-child selector

not(:first-child) does not seem to work anymore. At least with the more recent versions of Chrome and Firefox.

Instead, try this:

ul:not(:first-of-type) {}

Ansible: Set variable to file content

You can use lookups in Ansible in order to get the contents of a file, e.g.

user_data: "{{ lookup('file', user_data_file) }}"

Caveat: This lookup will work with local files, not remote files.

Here's a complete example from the docs:

- hosts: all
  vars:
     contents: "{{ lookup('file', '/etc/foo.txt') }}"
  tasks:
     - debug: msg="the value of foo.txt is {{ contents }}"

Why use getters and setters/accessors?

Depends on your language. You've tagged this "object-oriented" rather than "Java", so I'd like to point out that ChssPly76's answer is language-dependent. In Python, for instance, there is no reason to use getters and setters. If you need to change the behavior, you can use a property, which wraps a getter and setter around basic attribute access. Something like this:

 class Simple(object):
   def _get_value(self):
       return self._value -1

   def _set_value(self, new_value):
       self._value = new_value + 1

   def _del_value(self):
       self.old_values.append(self._value)
       del self._value

   value = property(_get_value, _set_value, _del_value)

Oracle listener not running and won't start

I had the same problem on 11.201 on Windows. After: additional install 11.203 64bit server and client in new folders. PATH environment variable was changed right after install. Error in listener appeared after listener service restart. In my case there was a night time and number of windows updates, so windows server restart helped us. Also I cleaned listener.log file according to http://pavandba.com/tag/tns-12560-tns-protocol-adapter-error/, it was surprisingly big.

How to save a pandas DataFrame table as a png

I had the same requirement for a project I am doing. But none of the answers came elegant to my requirement. Here is something which finally helped me, and might be useful for this case:

from bokeh.io import export_png, export_svgs
from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource, DataTable, TableColumn

def save_df_as_image(df, path):
    source = ColumnDataSource(df)
    df_columns = [df.index.name]
    df_columns.extend(df.columns.values)
    columns_for_table=[]
    for column in df_columns:
        columns_for_table.append(TableColumn(field=column, title=column))

    data_table = DataTable(source=source, columns=columns_for_table,height_policy="auto",width_policy="auto",index_position=None)
    export_png(data_table, filename = path)

Correct way to initialize empty slice

They are equivalent. See this code:

mySlice1 := make([]int, 0)
mySlice2 := []int{}
fmt.Println("mySlice1", cap(mySlice1))
fmt.Println("mySlice2", cap(mySlice2))

Output:

mySlice1 0
mySlice2 0

Both slices have 0 capacity which implies both slices have 0 length (cannot be greater than the capacity) which implies both slices have no elements. This means the 2 slices are identical in every aspect.

See similar questions:

What is the point of having nil slice and empty slice in golang?

Ansible playbook shell output

I found using the minimal stdout_callback with ansible-playbook gave similar output to using ad-hoc ansible.

In your ansible.cfg (Note that I'm on OS X so modify the callback_plugins path to suit your install)

stdout_callback     = minimal
callback_plugins    = /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/plugins/callback

So that a ansible-playbook task like yours

---
-
  hosts: example
  gather_facts: no
  tasks:
    - shell: ps -eo pcpu,user,args | sort -r -k1 | head -n5

Gives output like this, like an ad-hoc command would

example | SUCCESS | rc=0 >>
%CPU USER     COMMAND
 0.2 root     sshd: root@pts/3
 0.1 root     /usr/sbin/CROND -n
 0.0 root     [xfs-reclaim/vda]
 0.0 root     [xfs_mru_cache]

I'm using ansible-playbook 2.2.1.0

Getting Index of an item in an arraylist;

Basically you need to look up ArrayList element based on name getName. Two approaches to this problem:

1- Don't use ArrayList, Use HashMap<String,AutionItem> where String would be name

2- Use getName to generate index and use index based addition into array list list.add(int index, E element). One way to generate index from name would be to use its hashCode and modulo by ArrayList current size (something similar what is used inside HashMap)

Modifying CSS class property values on the fly with JavaScript / jQuery

Like @benvie said, its more efficient to change a style sheet rather than using jQuery.css (which will loop through all of the elements in the set). It is also important not to add a new style to the head every time the function is called because it will create a memory leak and thousands of CSS rules that have to be individually applied by the browser. I would do something like this:

//Add the stylesheet once and store a cached jQuery object
var $style = $("<style type='text/css'>").appendTo('head'); 

function onResize() {
    var css = "\
        .someClass {\
            left:   "+leftVal+";\
            width:  "+widthVal+";\
            height: "+heightVal+";\
        }";

    $style.html(css);
}

This solution will change your styles by modifying the DOM only once per resize. Note that for effective js minification and compression, you probably don't want to pretty-print the css, but I did for clarity.

How would you do a "not in" query with LINQ?

I don't know if this will help you but..

NorthwindDataContext dc = new NorthwindDataContext();    
dc.Log = Console.Out;

var query =    
    from c in dc.Customers    
    where !(from o in dc.Orders    
            select o.CustomerID)    
           .Contains(c.CustomerID)    
    select c;

foreach (var c in query) Console.WriteLine( c );

How to find list intersection?

A functional way can be achieved using filter and lambda operator.

list1 = [1,2,3,4,5,6]

list2 = [2,4,6,9,10]

>>> list(filter(lambda x:x in list1, list2))

[2, 4, 6]

Edit: It filters out x that exists in both list1 and list, set difference can also be achieved using:

>>> list(filter(lambda x:x not in list1, list2))
[9,10]

Edit2: python3 filter returns a filter object, encapsulating it with list returns the output list.

How do I decode a string with escaped unicode?

Edit (2017-10-12):

@MechaLynx and @Kevin-Weber note that unescape() is deprecated from non-browser environments and does not exist in TypeScript. decodeURIComponent is a drop-in replacement. For broader compatibility, use the below instead:

decodeURIComponent(JSON.parse('"http\\u00253A\\u00252F\\u00252Fexample.com"'));
> 'http://example.com'

Original answer:

unescape(JSON.parse('"http\\u00253A\\u00252F\\u00252Fexample.com"'));
> 'http://example.com'

You can offload all the work to JSON.parse

Set JavaScript variable = null, or leave undefined?

Generally speak I defined null as it indicates a human set the value and undefined to indicate no setting has taken place.

What is /dev/null 2>&1?

I use >> /dev/null 2>&1 for a silent cronjob. A cronjob will do the job, but not send a report to my email.

As far as I know, don't remove /dev/null. It's useful, especially when you run cPanel, it can be used for throw-away cronjob reports.

How do you change the width and height of Twitter Bootstrap's tooltips?

after some experimenting, this worked best for me:

.tooltip-inner {
    max-width: 350px; /* set this to your maximum fitting width */
    width: inherit; /* will take up least amount of space */ 
}

How to truncate a foreign key constrained table?

How do I set cell value to Date and apply default Excel date format?

To know the format string used by Excel without having to guess it: create an excel file, write a date in cell A1 and format it as you want. Then run the following lines:

FileInputStream fileIn = new FileInputStream("test.xlsx");
Workbook workbook = WorkbookFactory.create(fileIn);
CellStyle cellStyle = workbook.getSheetAt(0).getRow(0).getCell(0).getCellStyle();
String styleString = cellStyle.getDataFormatString();
System.out.println(styleString);

Then copy-paste the resulting string, remove the backslashes (for example d/m/yy\ h\.mm;@ becomes d/m/yy h.mm;@) and use it in the http://poi.apache.org/spreadsheet/quick-guide.html#CreateDateCells code:

CellStyle cellStyle = wb.createCellStyle();
CreationHelper createHelper = wb.getCreationHelper();
cellStyle.setDataFormat(createHelper.createDataFormat().getFormat("d/m/yy h.mm;@"));
cell = row.createCell(1);
cell.setCellValue(new Date());
cell.setCellStyle(cellStyle);

Chrome disable SSL checking for sites?

To disable the errors windows related with certificates you can start Chrome from console and use this option: --ignore-certificate-errors.

You should use it for testing purposes. A more complete list of options is here: http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/

Tools for creating Class Diagrams

I used Poseidon UML Community Edition, it's platform independent and makes fine and clean diagrams. There are some screenshots here.

"make clean" results in "No rule to make target `clean'"

It seems your makefile's name is not 'Makefile' or 'makefile'. In case it is different say 'abc' try running 'make -f abc clean'

How do I initialize Kotlin's MutableList to empty MutableList?

    = if (elements.size == 0) ArrayList() else ArrayList(ArrayAsCollection(elements, isVarargs = true))

Apache Spark: map vs mapPartitions?

What's the difference between an RDD's map and mapPartitions method?

The method map converts each element of the source RDD into a single element of the result RDD by applying a function. mapPartitions converts each partition of the source RDD into multiple elements of the result (possibly none).

And does flatMap behave like map or like mapPartitions?

Neither, flatMap works on a single element (as map) and produces multiple elements of the result (as mapPartitions).

How to convert float to int with Java

If you want to convert a float value into an integer value, you have several ways to do it that depends on how do you want to round the float value.

First way is floor rounding the float value:

float myFloat = 3.14f;
int myInteger = (int)myFloat;

The output of this code will be 3, even if the myFloat value is closer to 4.

The second way is ceil rounding the float value:

float myFloat = 3.14f;
int myInteger = Math.ceil(myFloat);

The output of this code will be 4, because the rounding mode is always looking for the highest value.

How to print the ld(linker) search path

The question is tagged Linux, but maybe this works as well under Linux?

gcc -Xlinker -v

Under Mac OS X, this prints:

@(#)PROGRAM:ld  PROJECT:ld64-224.1
configured to support archs: armv6 armv7 armv7s arm64 i386 x86_64 armv6m armv7m armv7em
Library search paths:
    /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/lib
Framework search paths:
    /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/
[...]

The -Xlinker option of gcc above just passes -v to ld. However:

ld -v

doesn't print the search path.

Excel is not updating cells, options > formula > workbook calculation set to automatic

On Excel 2016, using Alt+Ctrl+F9 work well.

This combination call Application.CalculateFull() VBA Excel function.

This can be time consuming if other Excel files are loaded because all Excel sheets of all opened workbooks will be calculated again!

I have searched a function to calculate a specific sheet but I don't have found something!

Conda activate not working?

I just created a new environment with conda and things are different. My sys.path was not correct for a bit until I figured out way.

As a result, I want to point out for anyone else confused by a change in conda, that if you have upgraded conda and created an environment, it will now tell you (as opposed to previous behavior):

# To activate this environment, use
#
#     $ conda activate test
#
# To deactivate an active environment, use
#
#     $ conda deactivate

Thus, the new way to activate/deactivate environments is to do it like the above.

Indeed, if you upgrade from an older version of conda and you try the above, you may see the following helpful message (which I did):

CommandNotFoundError: Your shell has not been properly configured to use 'conda activate'.
If your shell is Bash or a Bourne variant, enable conda for the current user with

    $ echo ". ~/anaconda/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" >> ~/.bash_profile

or, for all users, enable conda with

    $ sudo ln -s ~/anaconda/etc/profile.d/conda.sh /etc/profile.d/conda.sh

The options above will permanently enable the 'conda' command, but they do NOT
put conda's base (root) environment on PATH.  To do so, run

    $ conda activate

in your terminal, or to put the base environment on PATH permanently, run

    $ echo "conda activate" >> ~/.bash_profile

Previous to conda 4.4, the recommended way to activate conda was to modify PATH in
your ~/.bash_profile file.  You should manually remove the line that looks like

    export PATH="~/anaconda/bin:$PATH"

^^^ The above line should NO LONGER be in your ~/.bash_profile file! ^^^

Changing the above fixed my issues with sys.path in activated conda environments.

Nginx not running with no error message

First, always sudo nginx -t to verify your config files are good.

I ran into the same problem. The reason I had the issue was twofold. First, I had accidentally copied a log file into my site-enabled folder. I deleted the log file and made sure that all the files in sites-enabled were proper nginx site configs. I also noticed two of my virtual hosts were listening for the same domain. So I made sure that each of my virtual hosts had unique domain names.

sudo service nginx restart

Then it worked.

Rotating a two-dimensional array in Python

Rotating Counter Clockwise ( standard column to row pivot ) As List and Dict

rows = [
  ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'],
  [1,2,3,4],
  [1,2,3],
  [1,2],
  [1],
]

pivot = []

for row in rows:
  for column, cell in enumerate(row):
    if len(pivot) == column: pivot.append([])
    pivot[column].append(cell)

print(rows)
print(pivot)
print(dict([(row[0], row[1:]) for row in pivot]))

Produces:

[['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'], [1, 2, 3, 4], [1, 2, 3], [1, 2], [1]]
[['A', 1, 1, 1, 1], ['B', 2, 2, 2], ['C', 3, 3], ['D', 4]]
{'A': [1, 1, 1, 1], 'B': [2, 2, 2], 'C': [3, 3], 'D': [4]}

How to find encoding of a file via script on Linux?

$ file -b sample.html

HTML document, UTF-8 Unicode text, with very long lines

$ file -bi sample.html

text/html; charset=utf-8

$ file -bi sample.html  | awk -F'=' '{print $2 }'

utf-8

How to receive serial data using android bluetooth

How can I add reflection to a C++ application?

I think you might find interesting the article "Using Templates for Reflection in C++" by Dominic Filion. It is in section 1.4 of Game Programming Gems 5. Unfortunately I dont have my copy with me, but look for it because I think it explains what you are asking for.

Flexbox and Internet Explorer 11 (display:flex in <html>?)

According to http://caniuse.com/#feat=flexbox:

"IE10 and IE11 default values for flex are 0 0 auto rather than 0 1 auto, as per the draft spec, as of September 2013"

So in plain words, if somewhere in your CSS you have something like this: flex:1 , that is not translated the same way in all browsers. Try changing it to 1 0 0 and I believe you will immediately see that it -kinda- works.

The problem is that this solution will probably mess up firefox, but then you can use some hacks to target only Mozilla and change it back:

@-moz-document url-prefix() {
 #flexible-content{
      flex: 1;
    }
}

Since flexbox is a W3C Candidate and not official, browsers tend to give different results, but I guess that will change in the immediate future.

If someone has a better answer I would like to know!

Convert Numeric value to Varchar

i think it should be

select convert(varchar(10),StandardCost) +'S' from DimProduct where ProductKey = 212

select cast(StandardCost as varchar(10)) + 'S' from DimProduct where ProductKey = 212

How can I create a product key for my C# application?

One simple method is using a Globally Unique Identifier (GUID). GUIDs are usually stored as 128-bit values and are commonly displayed as 32 hexadecimal digits with groups separated by hyphens, such as {21EC2020-3AEA-4069-A2DD-08002B30309D}.

Use the following code in C# by System.Guid.NewGuid().

getKey = System.Guid.NewGuid().ToString().Substring(0, 8).ToUpper(); //Will generate a random 8 digit hexadecimal string.

_key = Convert.ToString(Regex.Replace(getKey, ".{4}", "$0/")); // And use this to separate every four digits with a "/".

I hope it helps.

nodeJs callbacks simple example

const fs = require('fs');

fs.stat('input.txt', function (err, stats) {
    if(err){
        console.log(err);
    } else {
        console.log(stats);
        console.log('Completed Reading File');
    }
});

'fs' is a node module which helps you to read file. Callback function will make sure that your file named 'input.txt' is completely read before it gets executed. fs.stat() function is to get file information like file size, date created and date modified.

JQuery Ajax POST in Codeigniter

In codeigniter there is no need to sennd "data" in ajax post method.. here is the example .

   searchThis = 'This text will be search';
    $.ajax({
      type: "POST",
      url: "<?php echo site_url();?>/software/search/"+searchThis,
      dataType: "html",
      success:function(data){
        alert(data);
      },

    });

Note : in url , software is the controller name , search is the function name and searchThis is the variable that i m sending.

Here is the controller.

    public function search(){
    $search = $this->uri->segment(3);
      echo '<p>'.$search.'</p>';
    }

I hope you can get idea for your work .

Spring Boot and multiple external configuration files

Take a look at the PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer, I find it clearer to use than annotation.

e.g.

@Configuration
public class PropertiesConfiguration {


    @Bean
    public PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer properties() {
        final PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer ppc = new PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer();
//        ppc.setIgnoreUnresolvablePlaceholders(true);
        ppc.setIgnoreResourceNotFound(true);

        final List<Resource> resourceLst = new ArrayList<Resource>();

        resourceLst.add(new ClassPathResource("myapp_base.properties"));
        resourceLst.add(new FileSystemResource("/etc/myapp/overriding.propertie"));
        resourceLst.add(new ClassPathResource("myapp_test.properties"));
        resourceLst.add(new ClassPathResource("myapp_developer_overrides.properties")); // for Developer debugging.

        ppc.setLocations(resourceLst.toArray(new Resource[]{}));

        return ppc;
    }

error opening trace file: No such file or directory (2)

Actually, the problem is that either /sys/kernel/debug is not mounted, or that the running kernel has no ftrace tracers compiled in so that /sys/kernel/debug/tracing is unavailable. This is the code throwing the error (platform_frameworks_native/libs/utils/Trace.cpp):

void Tracer::init() {
    Mutex::Autolock lock(sMutex);

    if (!sIsReady) {
        add_sysprop_change_callback(changeCallback, 0);

        const char* const traceFileName =
                "/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_marker";
        sTraceFD = open(traceFileName, O_WRONLY);
        if (sTraceFD == -1) {
            ALOGE("error opening trace file: %s (%d)", strerror(errno), errno);
            sEnabledTags = 0;   // no tracing can occur
        } else {
            loadSystemProperty();
        }

        android_atomic_release_store(1, &sIsReady);
    }
}

The log message could definitely be a bit more informative.

How do I pipe a subprocess call to a text file?

You could also just call the script from the terminal, outputting everything to a file, if that helps. This way:

$ /path/to/the/script.py > output.txt

This will overwrite the file. You can use >> to append to it.

If you want errors to be logged in the file as well, use &>> or &>.

Django URLs TypeError: view must be a callable or a list/tuple in the case of include()

You may also get this error if you have a name clash of a view and a module. I've got the error when i distribute my view files under views folder, /views/view1.py, /views/view2.py and imported some model named table.py in view2.py which happened to be a name of a view in view1.py. So naming the view functions as v_table(request,id) helped.

How to avoid pressing Enter with getchar() for reading a single character only?

"How to avoid pressing Enter with getchar()?"

First of all, terminal input is commonly either line or fully buffered. This means that the operation system stores the actual input from the terminal into a buffer. Usually, this buffer is flushed to the program when f.e. \n was signalized/provided in stdin. This is f.e. made by a press to Enter.

getchar() is just at the end of the chain. It has no ability to actually influence the buffering process.

"How can I do this?"

Ditch getchar() in the first place, if you don´t want to use specific system calls to change the behavior of the terminal explicitly like well explained in the other answers.

There is unfortunately no standard library function and with that no portable way to flush the buffer at single character input. However, there are implementation-based and non-portable solutions.

In Windows/MS-DOS, there are the getch() and getche() functions in the conio.h header file, which do exactly the thing you want - read a single character without the need to wait for the newline to flush the buffer.

The main difference between getch() and getche() is that getch() does not immediately output the actual input character in the console, while getche() does. The additional "e" stands for echo.

Example:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>   

int main (void) 
{
    int c;

    while ((c = getche()) != EOF)
    {
        if (c == '\n')
        {
            break;
        }

        printf("\n");
    }

    return 0;
}

In Linux, a way to obtain direct character processing and output is to use the cbreak() and echo() options and the getch() and refresh() routines in the ncurses-library.

Note, that you need to initialize the so called standard screen with the initscr() and close the same with the endwin() routines.

Example:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <ncurses.h>   

int main (void) 
{
    int c;

    cbreak(); 
    echo();

    initscr();

    while ((c = getch()) != ERR)
    {
        if (c == '\n')
        {
            break;
        }

        printf("\n");
        refresh();
    }

    endwin();

    return 0;
}

Note: You need to invoke the compiler with the -lncurses option, so that the linker can search and find the ncurses-library.

How do you reset the stored credentials in 'git credential-osxkeychain'?

git-credential-osxkeychain stores passwords in the Apple Keychain, as noted above.

By default, gitcredentials only considers the domain name. If you want Git to consider the full path (e.g. if you have multiple GitHub accounts), set the useHttpPath variable to true, as described at http://git-scm.com/docs/gitcredentials.html. Note that changing this setting will ask your credentials again for each URL.

Export P7b file with all the certificate chain into CER file

The selected answer didn't work for me, but it's close. I found a tutorial that worked for me and the certificate I obtained from StartCom.

Open the .p7b in a text editor.

Change the leader and trailer so the file looks similar to this:

-----BEGIN PKCS7-----
[... certificate content here ...]
-----END PKCS7-----

For example, my StartCom certificate began with:

    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

and ended with:

    -----END CERTIFICATE-----

Save and close the .p7b.
Run the following OpenSSL command (works on Ubuntu 14.04.4, as of this writing):
```
openssl pkcs7 -print_certs –in pkcs7.p7b -out pem.cer
```

The output is a .cer with the certificate chain.

destination=\my-server\backup$%USERNAME%

It was because parser can't get this value with special character '%'. And then I wrote a parser for reading ini files based on 're' module:

import re

# read from ini file.
def ini_read(ini_file, key):
    value = None
    with open(ini_file, 'r') as f:
        for line in f:
            match = re.match(r'^ *' + key + ' *= *.*$', line, re.M | re.I)
            if match:
                value = match.group()
                value = re.sub(r'^ *' + key + ' *= *', '', value)
                break
    return value


# read value for a key 'destination' from 'c:/myconfig.ini'
my_value_1 = ini_read('c:/myconfig.ini', 'destination')

# read value for a key 'create_destination_folder' from 'c:/myconfig.ini'
my_value_2 = ini_read('c:/myconfig.ini', 'create_destination_folder')


# write to an ini file.
def ini_write(ini_file, key, value, add_new=False):
    line_number = 0
    match_found = False
    with open(ini_file, 'r') as f:
        lines = f.read().splitlines()
    for line in lines:
        if re.match(r'^ *' + key + ' *= *.*$', line, re.M | re.I):
            match_found = True
            break
        line_number += 1
    if match_found:
        lines[line_number] = key + ' = ' + value
        with open(ini_file, 'w') as f:
            for line in lines:
                f.write(line + '\n')
        return True
    elif add_new:
        with open(ini_file, 'a') as f:
            f.write(key + ' = ' + value)
        return True
    return False


# change a value for a key 'destination'.
ini_write('my_config.ini', 'destination', '//server/backups$/%USERNAME%')

# change a value for a key 'create_destination_folder'
ini_write('my_config.ini', 'create_destination_folder', 'True')

# to add a new key, we need to use 'add_new=True' option.
ini_write('my_config.ini', 'extra_new_param', 'True', True)

UTF-8 encoding in JSP page

This thread can help you: Passing request parameters as UTF-8 encoded strings

Basically:

request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
String login = request.getParameter("login");
String password = request.getParameter("password");

Or you use javascript on jsp file:

var userInput = $("#myInput").val();            
var encodedUserInput = encodeURIComponent(userInput);
$("#hiddenImput").val(encodedUserInput);

and after recover on class:

String parameter = URLDecoder.decode(request.getParameter("hiddenImput"), "UTF-8");

How to get HTTP response code for a URL in Java?

huc.connect();

respCode = huc.getResponseCode();

if(respCode >= 400) {
    System.out.println(url+" is a broken link");
} else {
    System.out.println(url+" is a valid link");
}

MySQL vs MySQLi when using PHP

What is better is PDO; it's a less crufty interface and also provides the same features as MySQLi.

Using prepared statements is good because it eliminates SQL injection possibilities; using server-side prepared statements is bad because it increases the number of round-trips.

SQL Server stored procedure Nullable parameter

It looks like you're passing in Null for every argument except for PropertyValueID and DropDownOptionID, right? I don't think any of your IF statements will fire if only these two values are not-null. In short, I think you have a logic error.

Other than that, I would suggest two things...

First, instead of testing for NULL, use this kind syntax on your if statements (it's safer)...

    ELSE IF ISNULL(@UnitValue, 0) != 0 AND ISNULL(@UnitOfMeasureID, 0) = 0

Second, add a meaningful PRINT statement before each UPDATE. That way, when you run the sproc in MSSQL, you can look at the messages and see how far it's actually getting.

Difference between 2 dates in SQLite

The SQLite documentation is a great reference and the DateAndTimeFunctions page is a good one to bookmark.

It's also helpful to remember that it's pretty easy to play with queries with the sqlite command line utility:

What is the Windows equivalent of the diff command?

I don't know if the following tool is exatly what you need. But I like to use, for specific files, some online tool. This way I can use it regardless of the operational system. Here is a example: diffchecker.com

But for my needs, I guess the best tool to track changes and logs of my project's files is GIT. If you work in a team, you can have some repo online in a server of yours, or use it with Bitbucket or Github.

Hope it helps somebody.

Check if element found in array c++

Here is a simple generic C++11 function contains which works for both arrays and containers:

using namespace std;

template<class C, typename T>
bool contains(C&& c, T e) { return find(begin(c), end(c), e) != end(c); };

Simple usage contains(arr, el) is somewhat similar to in keyword semantics in Python.

Here is a complete demo:

#include <algorithm>
#include <array>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

template<typename C, typename T>
bool contains(C&& c, T e) { 
    return std::find(std::begin(c), std::end(c), e) != std::end(c);
};

template<typename C, typename T>
void check(C&& c, T e) {
    std::cout << e << (contains(c,e) ? "" : " not") <<  " found\n";
}

int main() {
    int a[] = { 10, 15, 20 };
    std::array<int, 3> b { 10, 10, 10 };
    std::vector<int> v { 10, 20, 30 };
    std::string s { "Hello, Stack Overflow" };
    
    check(a, 10);
    check(b, 15);
    check(v, 20);
    check(s, 'Z');

    return 0;
}

Output:

10 found
15 not found
20 found
Z not found

Transitions on the CSS display property

I ran into this today, with a position: fixed modal that I was reusing. I couldn't keep it display: none and then animate it, as it just jumped into appearance, and and z-index (negative values, etc) did weird things as well.

I was also using a height: 0 to height: 100%, but it only worked when the modal appeared. This is the same as if you used left: -100% or something.

Then it struck me that there was a simple answer. Et voila:

First, your hidden modal. Notice the height is 0, and check out the height declaration in transitions... it has a 500ms, which is longer than my opacity transition. Remember, this affects the out-going fade-out transition: returning the modal to its default state.

#modal-overlay {
    background: #999;
    background: rgba(33,33,33,.2);
    display: block;
    overflow: hidden;
    height: 0;
    width: 100%;
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    opacity: 0;
    z-index: 1;
    -webkit-transition: height 0s 500ms, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
       -moz-transition: height 0s 500ms, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
            -ms-transition: height 0s 500ms, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
         -o-transition: height 0s 500ms, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
        transition: height 0s 500ms, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
}

Second, your visible modal. Say you're setting a .modal-active to the body. Now the height is 100%, and my transition has also changed. I want the height to be instantly changed, and the opacity to take 300ms.

.modal-active #modal-overlay {
    height: 100%;
    opacity: 1;
    z-index: 90000;
    -webkit-transition: height 0s, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
       -moz-transition: height 0s, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
        -ms-transition: height 0s, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
         -o-transition: height 0s, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
            transition: height 0s, opacity 300ms ease-in-out;
}

That's it, it works like a charm.

How to create a custom string representation for a class object?

If you have to choose between __repr__ or __str__ go for the first one, as by default implementation __str__ calls __repr__ when it wasn't defined.

Custom Vector3 example:

class Vector3(object):
    def __init__(self, args):
        self.x = args[0]
        self.y = args[1]
        self.z = args[2]

    def __repr__(self):
        return "Vector3([{0},{1},{2}])".format(self.x, self.y, self.z)

    def __str__(self):
        return "x: {0}, y: {1}, z: {2}".format(self.x, self.y, self.z)

In this example, repr returns again a string that can be directly consumed/executed, whereas str is more useful as a debug output.

v = Vector3([1,2,3])
print repr(v)    #Vector3([1,2,3])
print str(v)     #x:1, y:2, z:3

Hive Alter table change Column Name

In the comments @libjack mentioned a point which is really important. I would like to illustrate more into it. First, we can check what are the columns of our table by describe <table_name>; command.

there is a double-column called _c1 and such columns are created by the hive itself when we moving data from one table to another. To address these columns we need to write it inside backticks

`_c1`

Finally, the ALTER command will be,

ALTER TABLE <table_namr> CHANGE `<system_genarated_column_name>` <new_column_name> <data_type>;

Is there a way to make HTML5 video fullscreen?

2020 answer

HTML 5 provides no way to make a video fullscreen, but the parallel Fullscreen API defines an API for elements to display themselves fullscreen.

This can be applied to any element, including videos.

Browser support is good, but Internet Explorer and Safari need prefixed versions.

An external demo is provided as Stack Snippet sandboxing rules break it.

<div id="one">
    One
</div>

<div id="two">
    Two
</div>

<button>one</button>
<button>two</button>

div {
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
}
#one { background: yellow; }
#two { background: pink; }

addEventListener("click", event => {
    const btn = event.target;
    if (btn.tagName.toLowerCase() !== "button") return;
    const id = btn.textContent;
    const div = document.getElementById(id);
    if (div.requestFullscreen) 
        div.requestFullscreen();
    else if (div.webkitRequestFullscreen) 
        div.webkitRequestFullscreen();
    else if (div.msRequestFullScreen) 
      div.msRequestFullScreen();
});

2012 answer

HTML 5 provides no way to make a video fullscreen, but the parallel Fullscreen specification supplies the requestFullScreen method which allows arbitrary elements (including <video> elements) to be made fullscreen.

It has experimental support in a number of browsers.

2009 answer

Note: this has since been removed from the specification.

From the HTML5 spec (at the time of writing: June '09):

User agents should not provide a public API to cause videos to be shown full-screen. A script, combined with a carefully crafted video file, could trick the user into thinking a system-modal dialog had been shown, and prompt the user for a password. There is also the danger of "mere" annoyance, with pages launching full-screen videos when links are clicked or pages navigated. Instead, user-agent specific interface features may be provided to easily allow the user to obtain a full-screen playback mode.

Browsers may provide a user interface, but shouldn't provide a programmable one.

How to insert data to MySQL having auto incremented primary key?

In order to take advantage of the auto-incrementing capability of the column, do not supply a value for that column when inserting rows. The database will supply a value for you.

How to convert OutputStream to InputStream?

The library io-extras may be useful. For example if you want to gzip an InputStream using GZIPOutputStream and you want it to happen synchronously (using the default buffer size of 8192):

InputStream is = ...
InputStream gz = IOUtil.pipe(is, o -> new GZIPOutputStream(o));

Note that the library has 100% unit test coverage (for what that's worth of course!) and is on Maven Central. The Maven dependency is:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.davidmoten</groupId>
  <artifactId>io-extras</artifactId>
  <version>0.1</version>
</dependency>

Be sure to check for a later version.

Gray out image with CSS?

Use the CSS3 filter property:

img {
    -webkit-filter: grayscale(100%);
       -moz-filter: grayscale(100%);
         -o-filter: grayscale(100%);
        -ms-filter: grayscale(100%);
            filter: grayscale(100%); 
}

The browser support is a little bad but it's 100% CSS. A nice article about the CSS3 filter property you can find here: http://blog.nmsdvid.com/css-filter-property/

How to convert HTML to PDF using iText

This links might be helpful to convert.

https://code.google.com/p/flying-saucer/

https://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2007/06/26/generating-pdfs-with-flying-saucer-and-itext.html

If it is a college Project, you can even go for these, http://pd4ml.com/examples.htm

Example is given to convert HTML to PDF

String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated

When you define varchar etc without a length, the default is 1.

When n is not specified in a data definition or variable declaration statement, the default length is 1. When n is not specified with the CAST function, the default length is 30.

So, if you expect 400 bytes in the @trackingItems1 column from stock, use nvarchar(400).

Otherwise, you are trying to fit >1 character into nvarchar(1) = fail

As a comment, this is bad use of table value function too because it is "multi statement". It can be written like this and it will run better

ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[testing1](@price int)
RETURNS
AS
   SELECT ta.item, ta.warehouse, ta.price 
   FROM   stock ta
   WHERE  ta.price >= @price;

Of course, you could just use a normal SELECT statement..

Struct memory layout in C

It's implementation-specific, but in practice the rule (in the absence of #pragma pack or the like) is:

Struct members are stored in the order they are declared. (This is required by the C99 standard, as mentioned here earlier.)
If necessary, padding is added before each struct member, to ensure correct alignment.
Each primitive type T requires an alignment of sizeof(T) bytes.

So, given the following struct:

struct ST
{
   char ch1;
   short s;
   char ch2;
   long long ll;
   int i;
};

ch1 is at offset 0
a padding byte is inserted to align...
s at offset 2
ch2 is at offset 4, immediately after s
3 padding bytes are inserted to align...
ll at offset 8
i is at offset 16, right after ll
4 padding bytes are added at the end so that the overall struct is a multiple of 8 bytes. I checked this on a 64-bit system: 32-bit systems may allow structs to have 4-byte alignment.

So sizeof(ST) is 24.

It can be reduced to 16 bytes by rearranging the members to avoid padding:

struct ST
{
   long long ll; // @ 0
   int i;        // @ 8
   short s;      // @ 12
   char ch1;     // @ 14
   char ch2;     // @ 15
} ST;

Facebook share link without JavaScript

You could use

<a href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=#url" target="_blank">Share</a>

Currently there is no sharing option without passing current url as a parameter. You can use an indirect way to achieve this.

Create a server side page for example: "/sharer.aspx"
Link this page whenever you want the share functionality.
In the "sharer.aspx" get the refering url, and redirect user to "https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u={referer}"

Example ASP .Net code:

public partial class Sharer : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var referer = Request.UrlReferrer.ToString();

        if(string.IsNullOrEmpty(referer))
        {
            // some error logic
            return;
        }

        Response.Clear();
        Response.Redirect("https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(referer));
        Response.End();
    }
}

How to get current CPU and RAM usage in Python?

"... current system status (current CPU, RAM, free disk space, etc.)" And "*nix and Windows platforms" can be a difficult combination to achieve.

The operating systems are fundamentally different in the way they manage these resources. Indeed, they differ in core concepts like defining what counts as system and what counts as application time.

"Free disk space"? What counts as "disk space?" All partitions of all devices? What about foreign partitions in a multi-boot environment?

I don't think there's a clear enough consensus between Windows and *nix that makes this possible. Indeed, there may not even be any consensus between the various operating systems called Windows. Is there a single Windows API that works for both XP and Vista?

How can I divide two integers stored in variables in Python?

The 1./2 syntax works because 1. is a float. It's the same as 1.0. The dot isn't a special operator that makes something a float. So, you need to either turn one (or both) of the operands into floats some other way -- for example by using float() on them, or by changing however they were calculated to use floats -- or turn on "true division", by using from __future__ import division at the top of the module.

How do I put an already-running process under nohup?

To send running process to nohup (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nohup)

nohup -p pid , it did not worked for me

Then I tried the following commands and it worked very fine

Run some SOMECOMMAND, say /usr/bin/python /vol/scripts/python_scripts/retention_all_properties.py 1.
Ctrl+Z to stop (pause) the program and get back to the shell.
bg to run it in the background.
disown -h so that the process isn't killed when the terminal closes.
Type exit to get out of the shell because now you're good to go as the operation will run in the background in its own process, so it's not tied to a shell.

This process is the equivalent of running nohup SOMECOMMAND.

Reading JSON POST using PHP

you can put your json in a parameter and send it instead of put only your json in header:

$post_string= 'json_param=' . json_encode($data);

//open connection
$ch = curl_init();

//set the url, number of POST vars, POST data
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_string);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://webservice.local/');  // Set the url path we want to call

//execute post
$result = curl_exec($curl);

//see the results
$json=json_decode($result,true);
curl_close($curl);
print_r($json);

on the service side you can get your json string as a parameter:

$json_string = $_POST['json_param'];
$obj = json_decode($json_string);

then you can use your converted data as object.

What are the obj and bin folders (created by Visual Studio) used for?

I would encourage you to see this youtube video which demonstrates the difference between C# bin and obj folders and also explains how we get the benefit of incremental/conditional compilation.

C# compilation is a two-step process, see the below diagram for more details:

Compiling: In compiling phase individual C# code files are compiled into individual compiled units. These individual compiled code files go in the OBJ directory.
Linking: In the linking phase these individual compiled code files are linked to create single unit DLL and EXE. This goes in the BIN directory.

If you compare both bin and obj directory you will find greater number of files in the "obj" directory as it has individual compiled code files while "bin" has a single unit.

Assign output of a program to a variable using a MS batch file

You could use a batch macro for simple capturing of command outputs, a bit like the behaviour of the bash shell.

The usage of the macro is simple and looks like

%$set% VAR=application arg1 arg2

And it works even with pipes

%$set% allDrives="wmic logicaldisk get name /value | findstr "Name""

The macro uses the variable like an array and stores each line in a separate index.
In the sample of %$set% allDrives="wmic logicaldisk there will the following variables created:

allDrives.Len=5

Smart way to truncate long strings

('long text to be truncated').replace(/(.{250})..+/, "$1…");

Somehow above code was not working for some kind of copy pasted or written text in vuejs app. So I used lodash truncate and its now working fine.

_.truncate('long text to be truncated', { 'length': 250, 'separator': ' '});

Is there an easy way to reload css without reloading the page?

Possibly not applicable for your situation, but here's the jQuery function I use for reloading external stylesheets:

/**
 * Forces a reload of all stylesheets by appending a unique query string
 * to each stylesheet URL.
 */
function reloadStylesheets() {
    var queryString = '?reload=' + new Date().getTime();
    $('link[rel="stylesheet"]').each(function () {
        this.href = this.href.replace(/\?.*|$/, queryString);
    });
}

Get the current date and time

Try this one:

System.DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss")

How to select label for="XYZ" in CSS?

The selector would be label[for=email], so in CSS:

label[for=email]
{
    /* ...definitions here... */
}

...or in JavaScript using the DOM:

var element = document.querySelector("label[for=email]");

...or in JavaScript using jQuery:

var element = $("label[for=email]");

It's an attribute selector. Note that some browsers (versions of IE < 8, for instance) may not support attribute selectors, but more recent ones do. To support older browsers like IE6 and IE7, you'd have to use a class (well, or some other structural way), sadly.

(I'm assuming that the template {t _your_email} will fill in a field with id="email". If not, use a class instead.)

Note that if the value of the attribute you're selecting doesn't fit the rules for a CSS identifier (for instance, if it has spaces or brackets in it, or starts with a digit, etc.), you need quotes around the value:

label[for="field[]"]
{
    /* ...definitions here... */
}

They can be single or double quotes.

firefox proxy settings via command line

This is the final compiled solution which worked for me... Tried and tested...

Steps to Change Proxy settings in Mozilla Firefox via cmd in Windows

cd /D "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles"
cd *.default

To Replace Already Present Proxy Settings with User-defined ones

powershell -Command "(gc prefs.js) -replace 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.http\", \"already present IP\")\;', 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.http\", \"your http proxy ip\");' | Set-Content prefs.js"
powershell -Command "(gc prefs.js) -replace 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.http_port\", already present port)\;', 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.http_port\", your http proxy port);' | Set-Content prefs.js"
powershell -Command "(gc prefs.js) -replace 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.share_proxy_settings\", already present value)\;', 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.share_proxy_settings\", true);' | Set-Content prefs.js"
powershell -Command "(gc prefs.js) -replace 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.type\", already present value)\;', 'user_pref(\"network.proxy.type\", 1);' | Set-Content prefs.js"

0 - No Proxy

1 - Manual Proxy Configuration

4 - Auto detect Proxy Settings

5 - Use System Settings(default)
cd %windir%

To Check Already Present Proxy Settings

cd C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\sat2m7dr.default\
find /i "network.proxy" prefs.js

To Start Firefox from CMD using your defined proxy settings

cd C:\Program Files\
cd "Mozilla Firefox"
firefox.exe -ProfileManager
Select default from the list (default-release is selected by default) and click ok.

NOTE: You may not have to run step 14 again. Instead you can directly run firefox.exe

How does String substring work in Swift

I'm really frustrated at Swift's String access model: everything has to be an Index. All I want is to access the i-th character of the string using Int, not the clumsy index and advancing (which happens to change with every major release). So I made an extension to String:

extension String {
    func index(from: Int) -> Index {
        return self.index(startIndex, offsetBy: from)
    }

    func substring(from: Int) -> String {
        let fromIndex = index(from: from)
        return String(self[fromIndex...])
    }

    func substring(to: Int) -> String {
        let toIndex = index(from: to)
        return String(self[..<toIndex])
    }

    func substring(with r: Range<Int>) -> String {
        let startIndex = index(from: r.lowerBound)
        let endIndex = index(from: r.upperBound)
        return String(self[startIndex..<endIndex])
    }
}

let str = "Hello, playground"
print(str.substring(from: 7))         // playground
print(str.substring(to: 5))           // Hello
print(str.substring(with: 7..<11))    // play

PowerShell : retrieve JSON object by field value

I just asked the same question here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/23062370/3532136 It has a good solution. I hope it helps ^^. In resume, you can use this:

The Json file in my case was called jsonfile.json:

{
    "CARD_MODEL_TITLE": "OWNER'S MANUAL",
    "CARD_MODEL_SUBTITLE": "Configure your download",
    "CARD_MODEL_SELECT": "Select Model",
    "CARD_LANG_TITLE": "Select Language",
    "CARD_LANG_DEVICE_LANG": "Your device",
    "CARD_YEAR_TITLE": "Select Model Year",
    "CARD_YEAR_LATEST": "(Latest)",
    "STEPS_MODEL": "Model",
    "STEPS_LANGUAGE": "Language",
    "STEPS_YEAR": "Model Year",
    "BUTTON_BACK": "Back",
    "BUTTON_NEXT": "Next",
    "BUTTON_CLOSE": "Close"
}

Code:

$json = (Get-Content "jsonfile.json" -Raw) | ConvertFrom-Json

$json.psobject.properties.name

Output:

CARD_MODEL_TITLE
CARD_MODEL_SUBTITLE
CARD_MODEL_SELECT
CARD_LANG_TITLE
CARD_LANG_DEVICE_LANG
CARD_YEAR_TITLE
CARD_YEAR_LATEST
STEPS_MODEL
STEPS_LANGUAGE
STEPS_YEAR
BUTTON_BACK
BUTTON_NEXT

positional argument follows keyword argument

The grammar of the language specifies that positional arguments appear before keyword or starred arguments in calls:

argument_list        ::=  positional_arguments ["," starred_and_keywords]
                            ["," keywords_arguments]
                          | starred_and_keywords ["," keywords_arguments]
                          | keywords_arguments

Specifically, a keyword argument looks like this: tag='insider trading!' while a positional argument looks like this: ..., exchange, .... The problem lies in that you appear to have copy/pasted the parameter list, and left some of the default values in place, which makes them look like keyword arguments rather than positional ones. This is fine, except that you then go back to using positional arguments, which is a syntax error.

Also, when an argument has a default value, such as price=None, that means you don't have to provide it. If you don't provide it, it will use the default value instead.

To resolve this error, convert your later positional arguments into keyword arguments, or, if they have default values and you don't need to use them, simply don't specify them at all:

order_id = kite.order_place(self, exchange, tradingsymbol,
    transaction_type, quantity)

# Fully positional:
order_id = kite.order_place(self, exchange, tradingsymbol, transaction_type, quantity, price, product, order_type, validity, disclosed_quantity, trigger_price, squareoff_value, stoploss_value, trailing_stoploss, variety, tag)

# Some positional, some keyword (all keywords at end):

order_id = kite.order_place(self, exchange, tradingsymbol,
    transaction_type, quantity, tag='insider trading!')

Center a position:fixed element

You can basically wrap it into another div and set its position to fixed.

_x000D_

.bg {_x000D_
  position: fixed;_x000D_
  width: 100%;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.jqbox_innerhtml {_x000D_
  width: 500px;_x000D_
  height: 200px;_x000D_
  margin: 5% auto;_x000D_
  padding: 10px;_x000D_
  border: 5px solid #ccc;_x000D_
  background-color: #fff;_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<div class="bg">_x000D_
  <div class="jqbox_innerhtml">_x000D_
    This should be inside a horizontally and vertically centered box._x000D_
  </div>_x000D_
</div>

How can I increase a scrollbar's width using CSS?

This sets the scrollbar width:

::-webkit-scrollbar {
  width: 8px;   // for vertical scroll bar
  height: 8px;  // for horizontal scroll bar
}

// for Firefox add this class as well
.thin_scroll{
  scrollbar-width: thin; // auto | thin | none | <length>;
}

Laravel Eloquent where field is X or null

You could merge two queries together:

$merged = $query_one->merge($query_two);

Set default format of datetimepicker as dd-MM-yyyy

Ensure that control Format property is properly set to use a custom format:

DateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom

Then this is how you can set your desired format:

DateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy"

Get DateTime.Now with milliseconds precision

Use DateTime Structure with milliseconds and format like this:

string timestamp = DateTime.UtcNow.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff", 
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
timestamp = timestamp.Replace("-", ".");

Adding click event handler to iframe

You can use closures to pass parameters:

iframe.document.addEventListener('click', function(event) {clic(this.id);}, false);

However, I recommend that you use a better approach to access your frame (I can only assume that you are using the DOM0 way of accessing frame windows by their name - something that is only kept around for backwards compatibility):

document.getElementById("myFrame").contentDocument.addEventListener(...);

Handling Dialogs in WPF with MVVM

Why not just raise an event in the VM and subscribe to the event in the view? This would keep the application logic and the view seperate and still allow you to use a child window for dialogs.

How to get the values of a ConfigurationSection of type NameValueSectionHandler

Here are some examples from this blog mentioned earlier:

<configuration>    
   <Database>    
      <add key="ConnectionString" value="data source=.;initial catalog=NorthWind;integrated security=SSPI"/>    
   </Database>    
</configuration>

get values:

 NameValueCollection db = (NameValueCollection)ConfigurationSettings.GetConfig("Database");         
    labelConnection2.Text = db["ConnectionString"];

Another example:

<Locations 
   ImportDirectory="C:\Import\Inbox"
   ProcessedDirectory ="C:\Import\Processed"
   RejectedDirectory ="C:\Import\Rejected"
/>

get value:

Hashtable loc = (Hashtable)ConfigurationSettings.GetConfig("Locations"); 

labelImport2.Text = loc["ImportDirectory"].ToString();
labelProcessed2.Text = loc["ProcessedDirectory"].ToString();

Correct way of using log4net (logger naming)

Regarding how you log messages within code, I would opt for the second approach:

ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(Bar));
log.Info("message");

Where messages sent to the log above will be 'named' using the fully-qualifed type Bar, e.g.

MyNamespace.Foo.Bar [INFO] message

The advantage of this approach is that it is the de-facto standard for organising logging, it also allows you to filter your log messages by namespace. For example, you can specify that you want to log INFO level message, but raise the logging level for Bar specifically to DEBUG:

<log4net>
    <!-- appenders go here -->
    <root>
        <level value="INFO" />
        <appender-ref ref="myLogAppender" />
    </root>

    <logger name="MyNamespace.Foo.Bar">
        <level value="DEBUG" />
    </logger>
</log4net>

The ability to filter your logging via name is a powerful feature of log4net, if you simply log all your messages to "myLog", you loose much of this power!

Regarding the EPiServer CMS, you should be able to use the above approach to specify a different logging level for the CMS and your own code.

How to get JSON from webpage into Python script

Late answer, but for python>=3.6 you can use:

import dload
j = dload.json(url)

Install dload with:

pip3 install dload

Table overflowing outside of div

You can prevent tables from expanding beyond their parent div by using table-layout:fixed.

The CSS below will make your tables expand to the width of the div surrounding it.

table 
{
    table-layout:fixed;
    width:100%;
}

I found this trick here.

Map HTML to JSON

I just wrote this function that does what you want; try it out let me know if it doesn't work correctly for you:

// Test with an element.
var initElement = document.getElementsByTagName("html")[0];
var json = mapDOM(initElement, true);
console.log(json);

// Test with a string.
initElement = "<div><span>text</span>Text2</div>";
json = mapDOM(initElement, true);
console.log(json);

function mapDOM(element, json) {
    var treeObject = {};
    
    // If string convert to document Node
    if (typeof element === "string") {
        if (window.DOMParser) {
              parser = new DOMParser();
              docNode = parser.parseFromString(element,"text/xml");
        } else { // Microsoft strikes again
              docNode = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
              docNode.async = false;
              docNode.loadXML(element); 
        } 
        element = docNode.firstChild;
    }
    
    //Recursively loop through DOM elements and assign properties to object
    function treeHTML(element, object) {
        object["type"] = element.nodeName;
        var nodeList = element.childNodes;
        if (nodeList != null) {
            if (nodeList.length) {
                object["content"] = [];
                for (var i = 0; i < nodeList.length; i++) {
                    if (nodeList[i].nodeType == 3) {
                        object["content"].push(nodeList[i].nodeValue);
                    } else {
                        object["content"].push({});
                        treeHTML(nodeList[i], object["content"][object["content"].length -1]);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        if (element.attributes != null) {
            if (element.attributes.length) {
                object["attributes"] = {};
                for (var i = 0; i < element.attributes.length; i++) {
                    object["attributes"][element.attributes[i].nodeName] = element.attributes[i].nodeValue;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    treeHTML(element, treeObject);
    
    return (json) ? JSON.stringify(treeObject) : treeObject;
}

Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/JUSsf/ (Tested in Chrome, I can't guarantee full browser support - you will have to test this).

?It creates an object that contains the tree structure of the HTML page in the format you requested and then uses JSON.stringify() which is included in most modern browsers (IE8+, Firefox 3+ .etc); If you need to support older browsers you can include json2.js.

It can take either a DOM element or a string containing valid XHTML as an argument (I believe, I'm not sure whether the DOMParser() will choke in certain situations as it is set to "text/xml" or whether it just doesn't provide error handling. Unfortunately "text/html" has poor browser support).

You can easily change the range of this function by passing a different value as element. Whatever value you pass will be the root of your JSON map.

Adding sheets to end of workbook in Excel (normal method not working?)

A common mistake is

mainWB.Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets.Count)

which leads to Error 1004. Although it is not clear at all from the official documentation, it turns out that the 'After' parameter cannot be an integer, it must be a reference to a sheet in the same workbook.

update listview dynamically with adapter

SimpleListAdapter's are primarily used for static data! If you want to handle dynamic data, you're better off working with an ArrayAdapter, ListAdapter or with a CursorAdapter if your data is coming in from the database.

Here's a useful tutorial in understanding binding data in a ListAdapter

As referenced in this SO question

Razor Views not seeing System.Web.Mvc.HtmlHelper

As for me, it was a stupid deployment mistake: Web projects can have more than one web.config. It was working on the developer's machine and not in production, but we were not realising that the deployment script only grabbed the Web.config file at the root, and it didn't copy the Web.config file in the Views folder.

Bootstrap onClick button event

If, like me, you had dynamically created buttons on your page, the

$("#your-bs-button's-id").on("click", function(event) {
                       or
$(".your-bs-button's-class").on("click", function(event) {

methods won't work because they only work on current elements (not future elements). Instead you need to reference a parent item that existed at the initial loading of the web page.

$(document).on("click", "#your-bs-button's-id", function(event) {
                       or more generally
$("#pre-existing-element-id").on("click", ".your-bs-button's-class", function(event) {

There are many other references to this issue on stack overflow here and here.

How can I detect when an Android application is running in the emulator?

Here is my solution (it works only if you run a web server on your debug machine): I have created a background task that starts when the application starts. It looks for http://10.0.2.2 and if it exists it changes a global parameter (IsDebug) to true. It is a silent way to find out where you are running.

public class CheckDebugModeTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
public static boolean IsDebug = false;

public CheckDebugModeTask()
{

}

@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {     
  try {
    HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
    int timeoutConnection = 1000;
    HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection);
    int timeoutSocket = 2000;
    HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket);

    String url2 = "http://10.0.2.2";        
          HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url2);
    DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);

    HttpResponse response2 = client.execute(httpGet);
    if (response2 == null || response2.getEntity() == null || response2.getEntity().getContent() == null)
    return "";

    return "Debug";

} catch (Exception e) {
    return "";
}
}

@Override
protected void onPostExecute (String result)
{       
if (result == "Debug")
{
    CheckDebugModeTask.IsDebug = true;
}
}

from the main activity onCreate:

CheckDebugModeTask checkDebugMode = new CheckDebugModeTask();
checkDebugMode.execute("");

Which HTML Parser is the best?

I suggest Validator.nu's parser, based on the HTML5 parsing algorithm. It is the parser used in Mozilla from 2010-05-03

Spell Checker for Python

I'd recommend starting by carefully reading this post by Peter Norvig. (I had to something similar and I found it extremely useful.)

The following function, in particular has the ideas that you now need to make your spell checker more sophisticated: splitting, deleting, transposing, and inserting the irregular words to 'correct' them.

def edits1(word):
   splits     = [(word[:i], word[i:]) for i in range(len(word) + 1)]
   deletes    = [a + b[1:] for a, b in splits if b]
   transposes = [a + b[1] + b[0] + b[2:] for a, b in splits if len(b)>1]
   replaces   = [a + c + b[1:] for a, b in splits for c in alphabet if b]
   inserts    = [a + c + b     for a, b in splits for c in alphabet]
   return set(deletes + transposes + replaces + inserts)

Note: The above is one snippet from Norvig's spelling corrector

And the good news is that you can incrementally add to and keep improving your spell-checker.

Hope that helps.

Access Control Origin Header error using Axios in React Web throwing error in Chrome

I had the same error. I solved it by installing CORS in my backend using npm i cors. You'll then need to add this to your code:

const cors = require('cors');
app.use(cors());

This fixed it for me; now I can post my forms using AJAX and without needing to add any customized headers.
