Is there a way to measure text in javascript? I want to determine if the text has overflowed the container and then perform an operation based upon that eventuality. The text is added to the container programatically so I could do the test after that is done. I was thinking the only way would...

Hi, We have a legacy app that was originally built on site but, of course, the source code disappeared long ago. Well wouldn't you know it but the sa username and password is hard coded into that app and it isn't very "strong". The SQL database is isolated however, so we aren't too worried...

Hi, I've got a requirement to have text float over to the right edge of the browser but stop and not go further than a certain amount of pixels from the left if the browser is resized too small. I've posted an example of the effect (or as far as I've gotten with it) here. Right now it is...

Hi all, I've noticed that it is (somewhat) possible to link MySQL or ODBC schemas into MSSQL Server but what I would like to do is link a MSSQL Server table to MySQL so that I can do cross-database joins. Having trouble finding this functionality, however. Does anyone know if there is a way or...

Hi, I'm having a bizarre problem where the session data in IIS is being (seemingly) randomly lost, and often temporarily at that. ASP.Net is storing a cookie on the client that specifies the session ID, but that ID comes and goes as far as the server is concerned. I will click on an ASP report...

I'm not sure this is the best place for this, but when I set IIS to require a secured login for a website or folder it prompts the user with a username/password dialog. Is it possible to use a web form and pass these credentials into the folder that is secured so that the login process can be...

Is there any way to stop a website from a batch/other-scripting-file temporarily to perform some log maintenance and the restart it in an automated fashion? Seems like it should be easy, but I just can't seem to find the magic bullet..

Hi all, I'm have an unusual problem with a C# console application. I have a legacy application with which I've piped its standard output to my app's standard input and am reading the data from the old unmanaged application with Console.Read(). The issue is that Console.Read() appears to be...

Hi, I wrote a class for use with Outlook Forms that does a variety of behind the scene things and I've been asked to provide the class for an Excel document. Unfortunately, appartently Outlook uses VBScript and Excel uses VBA and from what I understand there is no such thing as a 'Class' in...
