[OT] Deciding about On-Rev

2009-04-20 Thread George C Brackett
I had a couple of questions that Heather answered, and others may be interested: 1. On-Rev will ultimately include domain registration services, as many other hosts do. 2. On-Rev will NOT offer root access (or near root access using sudo) to an account via SSH. I'm glad to hear the first

I agree -- this is an exciting development. But... What I see from the examples is the opportunity to use Rev plus HTML + Javascript + CSS to accomplish what I normally use PHP + HTML + Javascript + CSS to accomplish. I love the idea of $499 for lifelong hosting, but the hard parts for me

I tried changing the "en" tooltip for the header group of a ListMagic 1.1.3 list that only permits filtering (tooltip: "Right-click to start or stop filtering") and the tooltip appeared as expected while I stayed on that card. I made no other change to the list. I saved the stack. Then I

ListMagic has one feature I find extremely useful: the ability to filter via a user-typed string. I've written a client that teachers use to view what may be a long list of events (incidents of positive and negative behavior) and it's very useful to be able to type 'tar' to display just th

Thanks, Jim. One other question: could one (or ListMagic) put the header group and the field into a group so that hiding the list does not require hiding the field and the header group? Or would that gum things up? George On Mar 6, 2009, at 2:55 PM, Jim Bufalini wrote: Hi George, How

How does one empty a ListMagic list (v. 1.1.3)? I've tried from the message box LMPopulate empty, the long id of fld "Staff" of card 1 (also "" instead of empty) and get "Error description: Field: tabstops is not a positive integer". I then tried put space & tab & space & cr into tList;
