Oh yeah, good point. Get rid of that shitty phone connection Peter!

Been there, done that. Too much effort for very little reward, so makes more sense to leave it to the guys that are already established.

I don't need to afford a bed. I use that one... *gestures* ...over there... oh... and I should probably see about doing so now, since I just realised it's 3:20am. Poo. :(

:) There are a few of you on here that keep some late hours!

 

You are probably right, I can imagine it's a huge pain in the ass trying to make everyone happy and making sure things are secure enough when dealing with multiple customers on the same server.

That's exactly why no such way exists.

In practice, true, but CSS3 has methods for controlling stuff like that:

Not that any browser really supports it yet.

You guys are the shit. I just got around to putting the print info on my site and it's working great! Thanks!

Hey is there a way to do this?

 

After I click an image and make the page print, make it automatically load a different page?

Surely that's just a case of

...
window.print();
window.location = "http://new.url.com";

I will let you know if you win or not! Just one second please!

I suspect the window.print() function returns immediately btw, so the page may well change straight away, rather than after the user clicks OK in the Print dialog.

Ahh I see what you're saying. I can't test it right now, but I'll let you know how I make out. Thanks!

You're trying to make it too easy. Computers are supposed to be too hard for mere users. That's why they pay us to come over and click the "print" button.

I suppose but I'm a sucker for automation!

As long as it breaks and causes extreme frustration and panic...

When I want to show my power I reboot the mail server!

I think I'm approaching this from the wrong angle. I think I'd be better served if I put my effort into the SQL Server Reporting Service.

 

Have you or anyone here used it?

I've not used it - no idea if anyone else has though.

I can fumble through most of it, but I'm having a hard time getting it to perform some math and getting it to let me select what I want from the database.

 

Think I'm going to buy a book about it.

The point is not to show YOUR power (which frankly, there is none, but I'm not telling), but THEIR abject helplessness (of which there is a copious, abundant and boundless supply, until the end of time, oh lord).

 

The easiest way to do that is to go out and get smashed, then show up for work the next day. Enjoy.

I'm not sure showing up for work smashed is going to do much on a weekend.

It's going to do great things. GREAT. THINGS. Oh yee of little fathe...
