When a certificate is "untrusted" by IE (such as a self-signed certificate), it displays a "Certificate error" icon next to the address bar. It used to be that you can click on that icon, "View certificates", then install it. On Windows 7, because of UAC , the "Install Certificate..." button is no longer displayed. In order to see the button, you have to start IE9 with administrator privileges: right click on the IE9 shortcut icon and select " Run as administrator... ". To save the certificate to a file, click the Details tab on the Certificate dialog, then click " Copy to File... ".

This example came from the jQuery validation documentation. The required rule can be used to validate a required selection box when you set the value of the first option to empty. <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <scrip... The error message is the title since no error message is specified. A more fully defined validation check would look like this: $('#my-form').validate({ errorElement: "p", ...

My problem is simple: in my XML data, a timestamp is provided as a long integer (number of milliseconds since the "the epoch"). When I do XSLT, I want to display it as a readable string, such as "Mon Nov 01 18:08:48 CDT 2010". After hours of struggle, I found: It's not so easy to get the job done with JDK 1.6 There are tons of garbage on the web in this space (suggestions, code snippets that simply don't work) Simple Xalan extension functions was the only resource that's somewhat informative. Even there some of the examples don't work. Below is a list of what worked and what didn't. This works: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="h... This does not (providing long value to Date constructor): <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="h......

The Android unit test framework is based on JUnit 3 , not JUnit 4. Test cases have to extend junit.framework.TestCase or a subclass (such as android.test.InstrumentationTestCase ). Tests are identified by public methods whose name starts with test , not methods annotated with @Test (as in JUnit 4). An Android test suite is packaged as an APK, just like the application being tested. To create a test package, first you need to identify the application package it is testing. Google suggests to put the test package source in a directory named tests/ alongside the src/ directory of the main application. At runtime, Android instrumentation loads both the test package and the application under test into the same process. Therefore, the tests can invoke methods on...

From Android Developers : You can use a third party JAR in your application by adding it to your Eclipse project as follows: In the Package Explorer panel, right-click on your project and select Properties . Select Java Build Path , then the tab Libraries . Press the Add External JARs... button and select the JAR file. Alternatively, if you want to include third party JARs with your package, create a new directory for them within your project and select Add Library... instead. It is not necessary to put external JARs in the assets folder. Apparently, this is not working for me! I added a libs folder, put the external jar in libs . The project built fine, but the APK does not include the...

grep is a versatile command with many variations (grep, egrep, fgrep, then various implementations). It uses a regula expression (regex) pattern to filter input. But then there are basic and extended flavors of regex - leading to even more confusion. And, beware that there are lots of bad examples of regex in the wild... There are two critical questions to ask when you use grep: which grep implementation are you using? what is the flavor of the regex? Here are some examples for gnu grep v2.7: # Find all numbers (no decimal point), basic regex... Use the -o flag to show only the matching part instead of the whole matching line: grep -o -E '\b[0-9]{2}\b' The good thing about the gnu grep is that it...

It seems that the JDBC standard way to create a BLOB is to call Connection.createBlob . However, this does not work for PostgreSQL (as of version 9.0-801 jdbc4): Exception in thread "main" org.postgresql.util.PSQ... The workaround is to call a PostgreSQL function to create the Blob, then use JDBC to update it: Connection conn = jdbcTemplate.getDataSource().get... Oracle Note: the Oracle way function to create an empty BLOB is EMPTY_BLOB() . stmt.execute ("INSERT INTO my_blob_table VALUES ('...

I have a PL/SQL package which uses DBMS_AQADM to create a queue. Oracle gave " PLS-00201 identifier 'DBMS_AQADM' must be declared " error when I tried to create the package. This happened even after I gave the user AQ_ADMINISTRATOR_ROLE , which has EXECUTE privilege on DBMS_AQADM, as can be confirmed with this query: select * from role_tab_privs where role= 'AQ_ADMIN... I have to grant EXECUTE right to the user directly to make it work. It turned out that roles are disabled in any named PL/SQL block ! The following comes from Oracle9i Database Concepts doc: PL/SQL Blocks and Roles The use of roles in a PL/SQL block depends on whether it is an anonymous block or a named block (stored procedure, function, or trigger), and...
