• SQL help - Need help to rotate the columns to rows

  I have a HughesNet to divide the columns into multiple lines. For example:

  100001 1 'SCOTT' 10 2 'DAVE' 20 3 10 4 20 SMITH "MILLER"

  Hey Kevin,

  Here's one way:

  WITH t AS (
    SELECT level i FROM dual CONNECT BY level <= 4
  )
  SELECT enty_type, enty_name, enty_id
  FROM (
    SELECT case when mod(t.i,2) = 0 then 'DEPARTMENT'
                else 'EMPLOYEE'
           end as enty_type
         , case t.i
             when 1 then emp_name1
             when 2 then dept_name1
             when 3 then emp_name2
             when 4 then dept_name2
           end as enty_name
         , case t.i
             when 1 then emp_id1
             when 2 then dept_id1
             when 3 then emp_id2

           end as enty_id

• Need help with div floating and clear property

  Link to page

  Link to the CSS file

  I have the site currently configured as a site of 3 columns and everything works fine.  I need to do a few pages as a 2 column page with the left column with only several "leftcolumn" div piled on each other so that there are several sections of box rounded in the left column.

  I have the leftcolumn div is floated left with a clear left for the left div column to stack on each other.

  The by rightcolumn is floating right.

  How can I get my right column to align with the top of the first leftcolumn div?

  It is not always necessary to float each column.  A float is usually enough for a 2-column layout.

  Where you have this:

  {#rightcolumn}
  Width: 620px;
  float: right;
  color: #FFFFFF;
  do-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, without serif.
  color: #FFFFFF;
  do-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, without serif.
  padding: 10px;
  border: 3px solid #5f605f;
  -moz-border-radius: 20px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 20px;
  -Opera-border-radius: 20px;
  -khtml-border-radius: 20px;
  border-radius: 20px;
  background-color: #858586;
  do-size: 12px;
  margin: 10px;
  }

  Change it as follows:

  {#rightcolumn}

  / * REMOVE IT * /.

  Width: 620px; 
  float: right;
  color: #FFFFFF;
  do-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, without serif.
  color: #FFFFFF;

  do-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, without serif.
  padding: 10px;
  border: 3px solid #5f605f;
  -moz-border-radius: 20px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 20px;
  -Opera-border-radius: 20px;
  -khtml-border-radius: 20px;
  border-radius: 20px;
  background-color: #858586;
  do-size: 12px;

  / * REMOVE THIS * /.

  margin: 10px;

  / * ADD THIS * /.

  margin left: 350px;  / * adjust as needed * /.

• Hi, I recently bought numbers in order to create a commercial newspaper. I'm the pen and paper. I need help to create a formula. A purchase column determines if the entry price column is subtracted from the price of output column or output subtracted

  Hi, I recently bought numbers in order to create a commercial newspaper. I'm the pen and paper. I need help to create a formula. A purchase column; Determines if the entry price column is subtracted from the price of output column (buy) or subtracted from (Sell) entry exit. Thank you for your help

  Hi B',.

  Buying and selling in column B

  Price of entry in column c.

  Exit in column D price

  Formula (and outcome) in column E

  If the column will B always contained 'Buy' or 'Sell', it works. It is default to a calculation of 'sell' if sale or has been specified.

  E2: = IF (B = "Buy", D - C, C - D)

  If you want to delay the calculation until the amounts entered in C and D, use this version:

  E2: = IF (OR (LEN (C) < 1, LEN (D) < 1,"", IF (B = "Buy", D - C, C - D) ")

  If you want to delay the calculation until all three ducks are on a line (B contains buy or sell, C and D contain both data), use this version:

  E2: = IF (OR (LEN (C) < 1, LEN (D) < 1,"", IF (B = "Buy", D - C, IF(B="Sell",C-D,) "" ")))

  Third version used in this table.

• need help to trigger to update the change of columns of a table

  Hi all
  I need help in the manufacture of change update trigger in the columns from one table to another table.
  For example, table (col1 col 2 col 3 col 4 col 5 samplea
  .. .Col 20
  
  Now if I do any change in one of the data column must be changed to
  sample_copya... table that contains duplicate column
  
  So for this I thought to create a trigger with the following logic
  
  
  
  If updating (col1) then
  Update sample_copya set col1: =: new.col1 where n ° 1 =: new.no1;
  Otherwise, if the update (col2) then
  Update sample_copya set col2: =: new.col2 where n ° 1 =: new.no1;
  Otherwise, if the update (col3) then
  Update sample_copya set col3: =: new.col3 where n ° 1 =: new.no1;
  
  end if;
  But how doi handle if all columns are changed or say 2 columns record the number of columns is more than 20...
  I would like to know if there is a simpler method to achieve...
  Thank you

• Need help with mobile layout

  Hello. Need help with my layout sensitive, using straight lines only html5 and css3 that I can understand and explain a novice level please - without any restart. Desktop and mobile are in a single html doc. The desktop version is 'ok '.

  current version (6_2)

  Try to match these mobile Office layouts

  On the mobile version:

  -Impossible to get the buttons nav blocks, vertical text button Align, and align the image of the product (square pictures) to the Center. (margin: auto; does not work)

  I used heights in the header because I'll have code for desktop, mobile and tablet in the CSS so it changes (and do not know how to support better). Also need to Add a link to the logo image background in header.

  Commenting on just a habit of property changing the css if you have defined it for the desktop version. Your nav elements are not vertically Center because you have a bottom padding set on them for the office, there are only changes for mobile in your css media query.

  .main-nav a {}

  display: block;

  text-decoration: none;

  / * padding-bottom: 15px;   */

  Padding: 12px 0;

  }

  Change the properties for the .product-images for mobile boxes: you have float attached to them for the desktop version and which cascade down to the mobile version, unless you change in the media query:

  .product-image {}

  float: none;

  Width: 50%;

  margin: 0 auto 20px auto;

  }

  As I mentioned in one of my posts related to your project, you will probably have to make your product images a bit larger. They fill the area once they form a column to width of 768px screen or you could resist transform them to one column until a little more by using a media query extra set at a narrow screen width to evoke this action

• Need help newbie Layout

  I'm normally a user After Effects and Premiere Pro, but were forced to volunteer to help on a project of Dreamweaver.

  The site is built on the model: HTML, 1 column, fixed, header and footer.  I want to be able to insert a photo of the width of the main column, 960 px I think.  Then, under this picture, I want to insert 4 pictures with different widths, between 150 and 200 pixels wide.  I will need to update it from time to time, and the quantity and sizes of the photos will be different every time.  If "Draw AP Div" worked as I expected to, it's simple: draw rectangles and insert images.  However, as you know, it won't be that easy.  I have read the page formatting101 and searched the forum, but I guess I don't know enough to know what to look for.

  Is it possible to place images in the way I want?  Do I need a plug-in?   I need to where to start.

  You don't need APDivs for this.  If you want the secondary images to be equidistant from the page, using CSS floats & margins.

  http://ALT-Web.com/demos/3-CSS-boxes.shtml

  If you do not need them spaced regularly, simply insert images optimized in your layout.  Don't forget to resize the images beforehand in your graphics editor so that their combined widths will fit inside the page layout.

• Can CSS FLOATS - someone point me to the great tutorial?

  I know the basics of tanks but have some problems.

  I searched for tutorials on google but didn't find exactly the awnser (or it was the site of technique to understand)

  I can do this:

  <div id="Container">
  <div id="Header"><p>HEADER</p></div>
  <div id="Menu"><p>Menu</p></div>
  <div id="Content"><p>Content</p></div>
  <div id="Footer"><p>FOOTER</p></div>
  </div>
  
  #Container{
  
  position:absolute;
  margin:0 auto; 
  width:80%;
  background:none;
  height:auto;
  height:100%; 
  min-height:100%;
  margin-left: 10%;
  margin-right: 10%;
  
  }
  #Header{
  height: 195px;
  width:100%;
  }
  #Menu{
  float: left;
  width: 172px;
  height: 75px;
  background: none;
  position: relative;
  }
  #Content{
  margin-left: 220px;
  height: auto;
  min-height:50%;
  width: auto;
  max-width:100%;
  min-width:77%;
  padding: 20px 20px 20px 20px;
  border-left: solid 1px #999;
  border-bottom: solid 2px #999;
  border-top: solid 1px #999;
  border-right: solid 2px #999;
  }
  #Footer{
  
  height: 50px;
  width:100%;
  
  }
  
  

  One of the problems is that the content is 100% of the contribution.

  So, if I fill it with a lot of text he lines out great, but if I get a single word in the div it will wrap the div arround the word.

  Normally I also happens to the height. But who is supposed to be.

  Is it with full text:

  __________________________

  | test test test test test test test.

  |_________________________|

  Is this single word:

  ____

  | test |

  |___|

  That should be:

  __________________________

  |test                                       |

  |_________________________|

  But I don't want a fixed width in pixels! I want to stretch a little so that it displays Nice on high resolution more low resolution.

  It's a bar of menus fixed floating to the left of the content. How should I deal with the content, so it will aways aligned at the end of the header?

  < HEADER > 100% width of the container

  < MENU > < CONTENT > fixed width 172px - remaining content needs to stretch so his double up the right headers.

  ________________________________________________________________________________________

  Also, I need to know how to deal with the floats in floats.

  My footers behavior wrong, if I make my small browsers window, the foot is under the content but its behind the menu.

  Its because I used Spry panels which are treated as fleet also. And I don't know how to clear the footer of content as well as the menu.

  For example, if I have the above configuration, and I want to treat the contained as a 'Container' new div which floats in it, how?

  Any help, links to good tutorials, etc. would be nice.

  If you see the problem of footer and align problem: http://www.wientjesvoegwerk.nl/

  Note the alignment of the content. Press "INFO" and notice the change of content. Its width is smaller then assumed. It must always have the same width.

  Now make your browser window small (always on the 'INFO' page) you just do the small width.

  Now, you will see the footer is behind the menu bar, but at the bottom of the content.

  So I need help or a good tutorial on how to solve this problem.

  5 types of CSS positioning:

  • Static (default)
  • Relative
  • Absolute
  • Fixed (similar to the absolute, but not supported by all browsers)
  • Float

• Need help to diagnose the regular system analysis on iMac - processors maxed out

  I need help to identify the cause of a problem that occurs at least 2 - 3 times per day using my iMac (27-inch, mid 2010) running 10.11.5.

  I will use my iMac and then all at once things will start to really trolling. To the point of being completely unusable. Even if I'm able to move my cursor, then click to drag the windows around the screen nothing does really.

  I have iStat menus running so that can see graphics in my menu bar that all 4 cores are completely overfished. Occasionally, I was fast enough to launch the activity monitor to try to see what applications / services are responsible for, the use of % CPU column is completely empty of values, so I can't identify the culprits in a reliable way. I try to keep that column sorted by % CPU use in the hope that he could reveal something and normally it's the kernel_task who is up there.

  I use a Wacom Bamboo dated Tablet (MTE - 450 has) instead of a mouse, and at one point, I was convinced the pilot of PenTabletDrive it is based on was to blame. I contacted Wacom on this subject, and although there is no known issues they pointed out that although the latest drivers will allow me to use the tablet that they no longer support older devices. I was wondering if there was a problem of communication between the device and a driver that is no longer supported. I installed the latest driver supported for my tablet, but the problems persist.

  It may be interesting to note that, when my computer is in this semi-frozen state, I am able to launch the window enough force and quit all open applications leaving me with only the Finder. I guess that means that there are none of my apps running and it is probably one of the services. If I restart the Finder system grinds to a completely enclosed holt.

  I hope someone can let me know what I can find in the Console or elsewhere to help me finally zero in on what is to blame. I can share a log if that helps.

  Thank you in advance!

• Can manage Windows XP Home Edition of Windows 8? Get the error codes for the security updates (0 x 643). ALL through Microsoft Tech INFECTED with the virus and Trojans tried. I need help BADLY. Thank you.

  I tried every thing blessed with technology microsoft... always hanging in limbo here.  Tired of doing constant comprehensive analyses, etc. in order to remove the constant threats.  Apparently my McAfee can't stay with her either.  Need help with the download/repair these seeds as soon as possible.  Thanks to all those who wish to help me - it would be that popular, for sure!

  The question makes no sense.

  "Can manage Windows XP Home Edition of Windows 8?"

  Two problems: there is no Windows 8 and even if there were, Windows XP Home Edition would not not 'manage '.  ;-)

  I drop McAfee for a few different freeware products.  Or better yet I'd get two products 'cost' (~ 25 and 60 dollars) and install them and use them in the future - but WHEN you are trying to clean up.

  You seem like you maybe sincerely - at a time when a format/install of Windows XP/patching/installation of applications/patch/restore backups of your data is the best course of action.

  However, if you are willing to work - maybe we can at least get things cleaned up to a certain point where you can get a good backup before doing this (otherwise avoid doing all together.)

  In the order shown, do not jump (no matter what you do, what you have done in the past, etc.) ...

  First of all - download, install, operate and put to update and then run a full system scan with the following two (one at a time, reboot in-between):

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  After you perform a full scan with one then the other and remove anything they have all two are completely, you can uninstall these products, if you wish.  This initiative will allow to check there is no malware floating around your system which could cause problems.  If you ask - no, Norton probably does not protect you from what these applications can find.

  Download and run the MSRT tool manually:

  (Ignore the details and download the tool to download and save to your desktop, run it.)

  Reset.

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

  Reset.

  Download/install the latest program Windows installation (for your operating system):
  (Windows XP 32-bit: WindowsXP-KB942288-v3 - x 86 .exe )
  (Download and save it to your desktop, run it.)

  Reset.

  and...

  Download the latest version of Windows Update (x 86) agent here:
  http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91237
  ... and save it to the root of your C:\ drive. After you register on the root of the C:\ drive, follow these steps:

  Close all Internet Explorer Windows and other applications.

  AutoScan--> RUN and type:
  %SystemDrive%\windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe /WUFORCE
  --> Click OK.

  (If asked, select 'Run'). --> Click on NEXT--> select 'I agree' and click NEXT--> where he completed the installation, click "Finish"...

  Reset.

  Now try usig the Fixit (Yes - try to use it again) to reset your Windows Components Update (you'll do the aggressive version, not the other):

  Now, open Internet Explorer, visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and do a CUSTOM search for updates.  Install any critical/high-priority ones and - for now - to ignore all those in option (always do this for material updates optional here.)

  Restart if necessary and continue to visit this web page until you have not yet updated to high priority.

  Now - if your problem is with the facilities of the .NET Framework...  You can end up with something like:

  to uninstall a few versions of the .NET Framework, then you can try to install again - but you should not do this until the machine is supposed to be cleaned.
