This example tricks Windows 95 and Windows 98 into thinking that a screen saver is running - which also disables Ctrl+Alt+Delete and Alt+Tab. Note that this does NOT work on Windows NT!...

In Windows XP it has become possible to encrypt files easily using built-in functionality. This example shows how to use this encryption in your programs. The user will still be able to see the encrypted file, but if someone else logs on that machine and attempts to view the file they will see the encrypted file but not its contents....

When you use your FTP client, you are unable to see virtual directories created in Internet Server Manager for the FTP service even though you have permissions to access the directory. However, if you issue the "cd" command with the correct name to the virtual directory or "ls" or "dir" of the virtual directory, the contents are listed (provided sufficient permissions exist for the user/anonymous user)....

This article (complementary to my article on MS Word automation) covers the following topics. Creating and populating an Excel document; navigating within a Workbook and working with Workbook elements; creating charts from existing Excel data (see also Keith Thoresz's article on inserting images); communicating with other Office applications via the clipboard. The main purpose of this article is to explain the basic methods of JScript-based Excel automation. It is in no way a comprehensive overv...

Read Reviews | Write Review |              Your Rating: 

Session management is a key aspect of many web applications. Striking the balance between saving server resources by timing out and allowing users ample time to get their job done can be somewhat of an art. This is especially true in cases when users spend a lot of time on a single page, either analyzing or inputting data. In this article, Tom Kelleher and David Schultz discuss how you can make a browser detect and alert the server that a user is still using an application, so that the server wo...

During the last few years the number of Web sites has grown dramatically, as well as the level of quality demanded from these sites. To succeed today, it's not enough to place some content on a static site. You need to have more and more features to attract new visitors and make them return again and again. Some of these features are not directly related to increasing the interest of your visitors and the level of traffic. Sometimes they are even not visible to the user, but are nonetheless cruc...

How do you programmatically close a browser window when you didn't open it? Of course, everybody knows you can't. If they don't know that, they're novice developers and some seasoned veteran will set them straight... gently or otherwise. Well, this week one of my clients -- whose intranet app opens in a specially formatted window -- told me they didn't want two windows just to start one application. I had very little success removing the toolbars from an existing window, and my vast web developm...

In Canada and other multilingual countries such as the USA
a lot of sites have to support English and French at the very least. Most sites have a clumsy design where the user is asked on the first page to select a language (and to add to the frustration, these introductory "language selection" pages often are too heavy on the graphics. So here is a small piece of code which you should save in a file as default.asp. Do not insert any regular html code in this snippet - you will get an error...

Not many people out there like to do ASP server-side programming with javascript. I beg to differ, JavaScript is efficient code (at least according to Java programmers). I (personally), like to use VBScript for my server-side ASP programming. BUT JavaScript (sometimes) looks cleaner, and IIS has the capability to choose between the 2 languages anyway so why not learn both? (thats if your a keener) So why would anyone even bother?! Its Server-Side (the obvious), making it harder to steal your cod...

Currently, web browsers display web pages using one markup language, namely HTML. They all read it and display it in basically the same way. In other words, it's a bunch of different web browsers that all do the same thing. However, it doesn't have to be this way. The protocol that supports web pages and web browsers, HTTP, supports more than just the current method of web browsing.The goal of this article is to present one alternative to the current way users browse the world wide web....

Recently at work, I was talking with a coworker about cool little utilities that we wished we had. He mentioned an idea for a shell extension that would remove all intermediate compiler files (such as *.obj) from a directory (and recurse subdirectories, naturally). That sounded pretty neat, and since he was in the middle of writing up a different cool program, I decided to get cracking on the clean-up utility and see what I could do....
