I didn't expect the spanish inquisition. Really, though. PHP is like PERL made for the web, it has easier access to databases than any other language I know of (which are only a few granted but Perl and C are among them).
I would say more but Language choice tends to get religious. Everyone thinks theirs is superior and few will just yield to my choices:-)
And what's to stop a script from getting the ID of that popup window and sending it the click-on-OK-button event before the user has a chance to even SEE the window?
The fact that it is not allowed to execute should stop most scripts. Seriously, code is not allowed to execute so your solution is to use code to circumvent the restriction a clever idea only until you think about it.
The irony here is that you are making fun of the first version of a Microsoft email program that does NOT give users access to executable attachments, and does NOT let an outside program use it to send email without approval gained from a popup window.
Had I not used all the clients up to OL2K and finally given up on it and used Kmail exclusively I would have known that. Nice cheer for 2K2 though;-)
Anybody care to comment - as best they can - on the difference between the GCC compiled code and code compiled with whatever tools Apple use?
GCC is nearly ansi standard, I am sure that whatever they use for C it also is nearly ansi standard. Additionally, (correct me if I am wrong) but I do not believe it matters what you compile on. What will matter later on is what libraries are installed and that is a user/administrative choice. That is why you can get a Linux environment for your windows PC from Red Hat.
The real story is the part that Apple is not telling us: The fact that they have evolved an organic "force" capable of developing a kernel directly, as executable machine code, without human intervention.
The part you were unaware of, is that MS is miles ahead of them as Outlook 2002 can automatically run organic machine code without human intervention.
Today's conventional paints are labor intensive to apply, and potentially hazardous to the people working with them, Army officials say. In addition, most of these coatings need to be touched-up by hand, which can hide damage to the metal or other substrate material.
As a result, Army leaders estimate the total cost for U.S. Department of Defense corrosion-related problems at $10 billion per year -- $2 billion of which is related to painting and paint-scraping operations.
All of those operations are performed by 'lowly' soldiers. This horrible idea will give them a 10 billion dollar labor surplus. As a soldier, I thought "painting the hummer" was a bad job. I would hate to see what they replace it with.
I can't help but think this is bogus. What exactly is _Saddam_'s Inbox? Does _he_ read that mail, or do his subordinates? Anyway...interesting, no matter if it's true or not.
Basically, it sounds like saddams inbox is a tool for misinformation (as are all other Iraqi communication tools). Where he can politely console some misguided american regarding 9/11 or tell about how GWB is picking on me. Yes, his subordinates read it as did (prior to this getting out I am betting) the NSA, CIA, Whitehouse bridge club the good folk in Parliament and of course the NRA.
Unfortunately, how long will it be before MS "improves" WMA encoding now? I think it is an unsafe target decoding MS files as they can change everything and you are back to development.
However, with MS new licensing and the fact that most tools are fairly robust. You might grab share if you can record and playback. Though with examples like Star Office I wonder how much grabbing you would do.
I have Wide Open West (WOW) cable internet, they are very Linux friendly and know how to do it right. BTW, the right way is "Oh you use Linux, I am just supposed to leave the modem here after I run the cable".
Very true. I work in a gourmet food company. We have food salesman, food buyers, food marketers, food managers etc....and a network engineer. I am a team player, just have no other teammates. IT should be required to be 'good corporate citizens' (since apparently that is defined by clothes) if and only if (old basic construct) IT is your businesses focus. Otherwise leave us alone.

Having all these different crypto challenges, protien folding challenges, SETI searches etc, just dilutes the pool of available computers for each task.
That is only true if you believe that simply being 'unused' makes a pc available. I disagree with that, a pc is available when and if thee user says it is. Thus the user will say it is only if they have an interest.
We ought to get the people here behind some distributed computing project. I bet we could beat any other team.

My comment was based on the comparison to OS-X. If you'll find out that there's a Linux distro proven to be on-par to OS X (or even OS-X for PC), I bet that you'd at least consider spending some $$$ for it, even $99 if well proven, right?
My fiance uses OS X at the lab (she's a biologist) and I would NOT bring that into a corporate environment (unless I need a graphic arts station). OS X is a great home system and a good academic system, but in terms of a corporate desktop no. The administration is not nearly as easy and user proof as it could be. I hate to say it but it does not compare well with Win XP on the desk. For servers, well if I put a mac of anytype in the server room I would feel trekish "To boldly go where no Mac has gone..." No I am sorry that was a cheap shot. The Macs in the lab serve quite well, but there are not many essential apps that would run (or maybe I should say, that I am aware of) on a mac server.
I do not consider OS X to be a goal for Linux. RH has advanced server which is a great step forward now they need advanced Desktop. The thing with these is the feature freeze. Coding to RH advanced server is not a moving target. If I were asked a bug with Linux it is the moving nature of the OS.

maybe it'll kick some Redhat/SUSE/etc. asses
? Why did Microsoft get as powerful as they now are? The main reason is marketing, marketing and a fanatical devotion to bundling...yes, two reasons. Sorry, for the cheap MP reference.
Anyway, how can a company with no market penetration, no free samples etc... hope to compete with Red Hat especially, but even Suse and the other distros. I have not heard any Linux people talking about "Gosh, I can't wait to BUY Linux from that new company", "yeah, boss, it's only 3 times as much as Red hat. I hope it's good" Hmm....not a great market entry IMO.
On the other hand, not having multiple choices about how you work and what tools to use is sure helpful, *sarcasm*Linux people hate choice*sarcasm*
Then you must be a moron, if you can make Netware sing, you don't deserve to TOUCH a server. May I suggest you get your MCSE laminated, cause you're nothing but a PAPER TIGER
You may suggest anything you want. If you can make Netware sing that is wonderful. I wanted a good, secure server not a singer that is why I learned Unix. Yes I could learn how to "button down" a novell server or as you guessed an NT Server (I am an MCSE and they come laminated thank you) but why go through the work that your vendor should have done (this paper tiger prefers non MS networks) I prefer Unix which is MOSTLY secure out of the box.
I will for you recant my anything comment though. Performance wise (as a file server) Netware was better than NT. However the Playstation is also approaching that benchmark.
