<title>HTML help?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23400784</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi, is this the correct forum some HTML help?

Anyway, I'm a teacher who is having trouble with some simple HTML - my homework page is here: http://www.homeworkhero.com/cgi-bin/aahero05/acceptit20/display.cgi?JEVERTS+nj_brrhs05

What I'd like to be able to do is change the word 'Cipher' (which is a hyper-link) in this text: "The 'Cipher' is a long term assignment with a TBA due date. Homework will be reduced during this time allowing you time to complete this assignment." to green  

Here's is what I have so far: The 'Cipher' is a long term assignment with a TBA due date.  Homework will be reduced during this time allowing you time to complete this assignment.

I can't seem to be able to keep the 'Cipher' hyper-link and the green font for just the one word the word?

Thank you.

<title>Creating own Unix shell in C</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23401188</link>
<description><![CDATA[So I am working on and off for a week on a stupid assignment for my class, by stupid I mean my inability to understand how does everything work. I never really work on C, only C++ and a bit of Java, but pointers and memory management are so damn hard and confusing. Here is what is required of me to do:
 quote:Focus

    * I/O redirection
    * Pipes
    * Built-in commands
          o cd
          o exit
    * Process a shell script.
      If your shell is passed an argument when run, then assume it is a script and process each line in the file as a command.

You may start with the code provided in the text. Add the ability to do I/O redirection and pipes.
To Keep It Simple:

    * There will not be more than one pipe.
    * If there is a pipe, only the first command will allow input redirection
    * If there is a pipe, only the last command will allow output redirection
    * If there is no pipe, you can assume that input redirection will be specified before output redirection.
      Therefore the following must be supported:
      command  toFile
      But you do not have to support::
      command > toFile 
I, of course came out with backwards way of doing it, and my code is attached.
In summary, I read the incoming string, put it in array of strings, cut in individual words, noticed where redirection symbols occur and notice those, then execute. With x arguments it works fine, BUT, whenever I do I/O redirection or even attempt pipes, my code fails in segmentation faults or improper file descriptor.

I just wonder why a child process cannot have it's input redirected from file descriptor of open file.

<title>[noob question] how to make this site fill the whole page?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23399639</link>
<description><![CDATA[If I open an ad I post here, it fills the whole width of the page. The site I had a friend slap together for me here does not fill the width of the page. 

It is still better than the site I had put together myself, and for what I paid I don't expect any modifications or redesign. I have no webdesign experience. I was interested in looking into how to make it fill the entire screren.

<title>Apache Mod Rewrite Help</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23388623</link>
<description><![CDATA[What I'm trying to do is rewrite all URLs so that if the person pulls up a script in the root of the domain they get the URL rewritten so that it goes to /site/.

So for instance, if they go to http://www.domain.com/something.php or http://www.domain.com/somethingelse.php or http://www.domain.com/somethingelseyetagain.php they get the URL rewritten so that the URL looks like http://www.domain.com/site/[scriptname].php.

But, the rewritten URLs have to be excluded from URLs like http://www.domain.com/community and http://www.domain.com/wiki.

I currently have the following rewrite rule...

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /site/$1

But that rule breaks the /community and /wiki URLs.

How do I fix this?

<title>Set nls_comp in Oracle reports.</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23389368</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a procedure that produces flat files to the Unix file system.  These files are then accessed from a website link.
I am looking to rewrite this process in Oracle reports so that we can bypass the filesystem and generate the files on demand.
This process is actually a rewritten mainframe app, and so I had to implement EBCDIC sorting like so.
        EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ('ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT = ''EBCDIC''');&#012;        EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ('ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP = ''ANSI''');&#012;        SELECT foo&#012;                FROM bar&#012;                WHERE foo BETWEEN :a AND :b&#012;                ORDER BY foo;&#012;Neither the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE nor the ALTER SESSION work in Oracle Report, but I found I could set the nls_sort in my ORDER BY clause by doing ORDER BY NLSSORT(foo, 'NLS_SORT='EBCDIC')
This leaves me at a loss for how I can set NLS_COMP to ANSI.  Without setting that the BETWEEN statement doesn't use EBCDIC ranges to get the data and my report fails.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

<title>Php memory caching</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23382891</link>
<description><![CDATA[I experimented with apc and memcached this weekend and ended up with a few questions.  I'm hoping someone here may be able to shed some light.

Assume a 50mb chunk of data that I want to keep in memory.  Lets ignore any alternatives for the sake of this discussion.

My question is regarding the way that this data is accessed.  As far as I can tell, 50mb of data is still read whenever I try to access.  The read is much faster than if it were stored on disk, but the full 50mb is still being read each time.  This seems very wasteful as the data has already been read and is persisting in memory.

It seems to me that you could store the memory reference to the cached data.  Then accessing that data would be a matter of pointing a variable to that memory reference instead of reading it again entirely from memory.

Are there other methods or products that do as I've described?  Maybe Apc or memcached do this with different configurations?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

<title>Bad code? Get an offset and forget about it.</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23367262</link>
<description><![CDATA[ quote:The Bad Code Offset provides a convenient and rational approach for balancing out the bad code we all have created at one time or another throughout our lifetime&#151;even when we can&#146;t go back and fix it directly.

Denominated in Source Lines of Code (SLOC), every purchase will offset the desired quantity of SLOC and pave the way toward future code excellence. 

Money raised through the purchase of Bad Code Offsets supports the various Open Source Initiatives that are performing vital work towards the salvation of our future code base.

Every purchase of an offset today will take us one line of code closer to our goal of universal code excellence. Banish the bugs in your past as you help usher in a new age of software development.

I wrote code for a living, and I know I have sinned. I'm in for a few, and might have to dip into my wallet regularly. :)
