Accommodations in nursing school- are they good?
- 2Oct 12, '11 by JBMmommy, RNI know that school has changed quite a bit over the years. The numbers of kids with designated special needs seems astronomical compared with when I was younger. I didn't realize until recently that our nursing program also has things set up to accommodate students that have certain issues. I'm not discounting the validity of an issue and maybe it really doesn't matter, but the point of school is to prepare people for the real world, correct? We have students that get extra time for the exam because they don't work well under time pressure, and students that take tests in a room by themselves because the distraction of students around them getting up when they're finished is unbearable for them. Now, I would think that in a nursing career at some point you may have to make very important decisions, and quick actions, without a nice quiet place and extra time to think. So, are these school accomodations really doing anything other than giving them extra time and their own space? And if you can't handle a multiple choice exam in school, are you really going to be ready for a life or death crisis when you're practicing? The reason I'm posting this for nurses and not in just the student forum- does it really make any difference in the real world what you do in school? Just wondering.
- 4Oct 12, '11 by jrt71Since its none of my business what other students are doing or what their medical or psychological history is, I've never really thought about it. Just concentrate on your own studies and let others do the same. It really doesn't concern you.
- 0Oct 12, '11 by latebloomer74The same disabilities you speak of are some of the same you will be working with when you become a nurse. You have some work to do......
- 2Oct 12, '11 by JBMmommy, RNI did not mean to be insensitive to students (and people) with disabilities of any sort, I apologize if that's how it sounded. What I meant was, should the school be more pro-active in teaching students that have an issue how to overcome them within the more natural environment they'll eventually need to work, rather than changing the environment because of the issue? Sorry if I offended anyone.
- 10Oct 12, '11 by NurseTrishaHI agree with you. Despite what a person truly desires, some people are not cut out to be nurses. I went to school with a person that got extra time on tests, got to go to a quiet room to do the test, and at one point had a proctor in the room reading the questions outloud. How is this gonna pan out when in an urgent situation?
People come with all sorts of problems. Some don't read very well, some are terrible at math. But you have to take a good look at yourself to determine if your weak points can pose a huge problem. For instance, I believe I would make a terrible waitress. I am incredibly clumsy and would end up covering patrons with food. So, I never became a waitress. Same thing with nursing - if you can't do the work, don't become a nurse.
- 2Oct 12, '11 by roser13OP, I see your point and I don't think that you are being insensitive. It is a very valid question.
But I think the answer likely lies in the fact that the school (unless completely privately funded) is probably between a rock and a hard place. They are very likely required by Federal law to provide these provisions to nursing students who qualify for them. Unfortunately, in this scenario, the students with the various learning disabilities may be the ones to suffer the most. Instead of figuring out early on what they can and cannot handle, they may make it all the way through nursing school with the accommodations, only to find out that the real world does not provide them.
I wonder if accommodations are given for taking the NCLEX?
- 7Oct 12, '11 by adnrnstudentQuote from roser13Yes about NCLEX , time and a half I believe it is. I'm a 2nd year A.D.N. student with ADHD and agraphia. When I take tests with class and not at testing center, I am always the last one out.OP, I see your point and I don't think that you are being insensitive. It is a very valid question.

I too believe O.P. asked a fair question. Here are things for O.P. to consider.
In the real world, I don't have to do dimensional analysis on my math. In nursing school, I can't just list the answer which I can solve in my head almost instantly, but in nursing school, I have to show my work. It takes me forever to figure out how to set those things up, and I already have the problem solved.
In the real world, I know what to do for conditions, but in nursing school on multiple choice tests I have to sit and think about what could be 4 right answers but have to think about which one is most right for the test.
I am a very robotic and black and white person. I recently took a test in Mother-Baby where there were 2 very right answers. I took the test with my class, I didn't use special accommodations testing center.
I went up to teacher and said elevated estrogen is right answer, it can make hands itch, I said but so is protein loss in blood. Protein pulls fluid from extracellular space so without it, hands can get swollen and itch too.
She said, "Oh you are WAY overthinking that. Choose the simple answer."
So the right answer was estrogen, but a robotic person like me could look at that question for hours.
On another note:
I think a problem we are facing in this country is labeling and judging people for asking questions.
If a person publicly questions for instance about the welfare of children being adopted into gay families, that doesn't make that person a homophobe full of hate.
I applaud the O.P. for asking the question.Last edit by adnrnstudent on Oct 12, '11
- 3Oct 12, '11 by QuickbeamOP, this is a question that is often on my mind as the world/ADA changes things. I had a whopper of a fitness test and physical to go through before I was accepted into my nursing program. I've also had grueling pre-employment tests as well as drug screens, hearing and vision tests and mental acuity exams before hire.
It is unsettling to me to think that an RN who cannot read/process information/hear might be interpreting my health data or be responsible for my care. And I say this as an interpreter for the deaf and someone married to a man with severe dyslexia.
There are physical truths of clinical nursing that cannot be overcome by will alone. I'm never going to be an Olympic ice skater or triathlete, no matter how much I might want to be.
The good news is that employers are entitled to ask an applicant to perform the essential functions of the job before hire. e.g. a nurse with quadriplegia could be asked to demonstrate how they would deliver bedside care.
The disconnect in my mind is that schools are potentially graduating RNs that can never function in that role.Last edit by Quickbeam on Oct 12, '11 : Reason: typo

Parker, J., 2004. Effective practice learning in social work. Exeter: Learning Matters.
Full text available as:
|Image (JPEG)
The new honours degree level qualification for social work practice emphasises the centrality of practice learning, and the Department of Health requirements for the degree state clearly that all students must undertake at least 200 days in direct practice learning during their programme of study. Practice learning often raises great anxieties for students, agencies and those who facilitate, supervise and assess it. This book addresses some of those anxieties and provides an introduction and guide to the process. It also explores ways in which the experience can deliver a unique learning opportunity for the student. The book will be ideal for social work students who are undertaking or about to undertake practice learning, and for student supervisors and practice assessors. It will also be of interest to trainers and policymakers within social care agencies and health care professions where practice learning is also undertaken.

"Son, you seem to think this is some kind of game."Crysis is an FPS video game series created by Crytek, previously known for Far Cry. The first game was released November 2007, and the series is famous for its incredibly advanced graphics and equally infamous for the technical specifications required to get the most out of them (they officially say "Use the latest").In the year 2020, an alien structure has been found buried in an island in the South China sea. The US army sends Raptor Team, a group of Delta Force soldiers equipped with multi-functional Nanosuits, including the Player Character Jake "Nomad" Dunn, to rescue the archaeologists who found it and then were taken captive by North Korean forces. However, the aliens are not friendly to either side and Nomad must combat both the North Koreans and the aliens.Crysis features the same open-ended style of meeting objectives that appeared in Far Cry. It also is ridiculously future-proof — if you can run it on maximum settings and still get good performance, you probably won't need to worry about the system requirements of another game for a good while. Allow us to congratulate you on the puissance of your equipment.note An expansion, Crysis Warhead was released after the first game, putting the player in the role of Major Michael "Psycho" Sykes during the timeline of the original. A touted feature of Warhead that turned out to be surprisingly true, was improved performance on higher graphic settings.Bridging the gap between Crysis 1 and 2 is a comic miniseries that follows Raptor Team directly after the end of Crysis. It ties in neatly with both games, and explains quite a bit about the setting and background.Crysis 2 is set three years after the first game. Written by Richard K. Morgan of Takeshi Kovacs series fame, the game opens up with a plot about an alien virus infecting the citizens of Manhattan, riots breaking out, and eventually cuts to the viewpoint of a man codenamed "Alcatraz" and his Marine squadmates sent to rescue Dr. Nathan Gould, who is trapped somewhere in Manhattan. However, their submarine gets attacked on the way, and Alcatraz himself barely survives before being rescued. From thereon, it's up to Alcatraz to figure out what in the world is happening on Manhattan, and why human paramilitary forces are out to kill him and seemingly everyone else that moves in the name of containing the infection.It's novelized in Crysis: Legion, by Peter Watts, which greatly expands on the story and nature of the Nanosuit, and adds an (un)healthy dose of Watts' hard-science horror.Crysis 3 was released on February 19, 2013. The story, written by Steven Hall (best known for his novel The Raw Shark Texts), is set in 2047 and involves Prophet/Alcatraz/Prophetcatraz rejoining with Psycho and fighting the now-globally-dominant CELL Corporation and the remnants of the Ceph through the overgrown ruins of New York. There's a city-sized dome and a bow involved. It is a continuation of Crysis 2, with the same engine, graphics, weapons, and enemies (albeit with some new enemies and weapons, most notably the compound bow, added). It also takes back the graphical crown the original once held.Crysis: Escalation was published in September 2013. Written by Gavin Smith, it is a collection of short stories that take place mostly between Crysis 2 and 3 and detail the fates of Alcatraz and some of the minor characters from Crysis 2, along with two prequel chapters that give some backstory on Prophet and Psycho and how they ended up being recruited into Raptor Team.

so i was thinking ... maybe we all should get together and give back to the community. not just three or four of us but a bunch of us. there are a lot of angels in both new jersey and new york alone. we should all get together and come up with a plan on how we can give back.
i was thinking of volunteering at a soup kitchen. or maybe we could raise money some how or way and give it to a charity of Trey's choice. stuff like that ...
im only looking for angels that want to make a difference. ALL IDEAS ARE WELCOMED. ALL ANGELS WHO CAN COME TO WHERE EVER WE MEET ARE WELCOMED.
i just want to make a difference and what better way to do so than to do it with the help of a couple of angels.

In the aftermath of a Chevrolet Volt catching fire at a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration test facility, NHTSA may move to require electric vehicle batteries to be drained after major wrecks. The Detroit Free Press reports that the agency is contemplating issuing a ruling, but a decision has yet to be made.
General Motors' position on the fire is that the battery should have been drained after NHTSA crash-tested the car, a preventative measure the automaker says it recommends.
NHTSA's inquiry involves other carmakers who use lithium-ion battery packs, not just GM. According to the report, the agency is reviewing the automaker's responses, which likely pertain to the feasibility of requiring first-responders to drain battery packs. The Detroit Free Press says GM must currently deploy a team to drain Volt batteries, though a GM spokesman says a tool to drain batteries may become available to dealerships next year.
The safety of electric vehicle batteries and the unique dangers they pose to first responders have been an ongoing concern since the first hybrids hit the market over a decade ago. The market's shift toward lithium-ion batteries and an increase in the size of battery packs have only drawn the issue into starker focus.

JavaScript - Need Some Help With Javascript Div Popup
Ok, I'm not a javascript expert, but I'm using a Drupal module called Calendar which uses some javascript to popup links in a DIV instead of going to a new page. This appears to work by adding class="popup" to links on the calendar.
I want to use the same functionality to link to calendar events from other areas on the site, not just on the calendar. It looks like the javascript file is loaded on every page of the site, but adding class="popup" only results in an empty DIV with a close button, without actually loading the content. Can anyone please help me solve this?
A link to what I'm working on is he http://184.108.40.206/~jazzbone/?q=home. The upcoming events section is a block from the Calendar view (created by the Calendar module), however it does not do popups by default like the calendar page, so I've tried adding class="popup" to these links to make it work. You can see in the main body of the page is a test link with class="popup" as a test as well. I want them to behave like the popups on the event calendar page.
I think this is the javascript file in question: http://22.214.171.124/~jazzbone/site...r/jcalendar.js
I know this is a lot, and I'm a newbie here, but I appreciate any help, thanks.

I have a small script that opens a small popup in which to populate a form. What I want to do is include a variable so that a particular PHP page opens. I include where I am at present:
HTML page calling JS popup:
<input type="text" name="DOCUMENTS" id="DOCUMENTS" onclick="makeSelection(this.form, 'DOCUMENTS');">
JS Code:
targetElement = null;
function makeSelection(myform, id) {
if(!myform || !id)
targetElement = myform.elements[id];
var handle = window.open("../file_upload.php?dir=CODE",
What I want to be able to do is get it so that the bit of JS that has 'dir=CODE' has a variable called from the HTML page. Is this possible, and if so, could anyone please help me out?
this is the code
function Large(obj,id,e)
// this is div tag,inside div i am placing imagebutton..
var imgbox=document.getElementById("imgbox");
var imgbtn=document.getElementById('<%=ImageButton3.ClientID%>');
imgbox.style.top= event.y;
thank you
I have a loop that originally printed out a day, in a table, that linked to a new page.
out.println("" + d + "");
This works fine but now I want to instead have it be a link a page thats a pop up. The code I have now is as follows
out.println(" + d + "">);

I can not seem to find where I am going wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Hey Guys,
I'm trying to make a popup. Let me rephrase, not the type of popup that we all have cursed upon! But the same concept. I have a "control panel" type web application that i have developed. It is all completely dynamic. Each application has its own index.php file. My problem is, one of my applications i need has to open in a new window since its an external site. My problem is the way i have it setup dynamically in php i MUST have that inital index.php file. So what i have tried is to put in that index file just some javascript that opens a new window. Of course both IE and FF's popup blocker kick in. I need to find away around this. Does anyone have any ideas? So far i'd tried a window.open.... also tried creating a link with a target and id and then using click(); to deploy it. And i even tried creating a fake form with a target and an id and submiting it with javascript. Everything gets blocked.
Thanks in advance,

I have a script that loads a popup window on any page of a website, in order to temporarily cover the page's content. This popup window is supposed to load on top of page's content, acting as a sort of page blocker. So the visitor can't see what's on the page until he clicks the popup.
The problem i'm having right now is when i put this script on a page that has iframe content. The iframe loads on top of this popup and not underneath as it's supposed to be.
Do you guys have any advise on what should i do to make this work properly when using iframes on a page?
Here is the script:
var blocker_originalHtmlOverflow; var blocker_originalBodyOverflow; function blocker_addLoadEvent(func) { var oldonload = window.onload; if (typeof window.onload != 'function') { window.onload = func; } else { window.onload = function() { oldonload(); func(); } } } blocker_addLoadEvent(blocker_init); function blocker_init() { if(blocker_getCookie('content_unlocked')=='1') return; blocker_originalHtmlOverflow = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].style.overflow; blocker_originalBodyOverflow = document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].style.overflow; document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].style.overflow = 'hidden'; document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].style.overflow = 'hidden'; function pageScroll() { window.scroll(0,0); // scroll to 0 if(blocker_getCookie('content_unlocked')!='1'){ scrolldelay = setTimeout('pageScroll()',100); // scrolls every 1 second } } pageScroll(); var haze = document.createElement('div'); haze.id = 'blocker_haze'; haze.style.filter = 'alpha(opacity=50)'; haze.style.opacity = .5; haze.style.height = '2000'; haze.style.width = '2000%'; haze.style.backgroundColor = '#000'; haze.style.position = 'absolute'; haze.style.top = '0px'; haze.style.left = '0px'; haze.style.zIndex = 1000000; var centerPane = document.createElement('centerPane'); centerPane.id = 'blocker_centerPane'; centerPane.style.width = '500px'; centerPane.style.height = '361px'; centerPane.style.border = '5px solid #CCC'; centerPane.style.position = 'absolute'; centerPane.style.left = '50%'; centerPane.style.marginLeft = '-250px'; centerPane.style.top= '100px'; centerPane.style.backgroundColor = '#FFF'; centerPane.style.zIndex = 1000001; centerPane.style.backgroundImage = 'url(http://www.fasgasfga.com/sfasdfasdf.jpg)'; centerPane.style.backgroundRepeat = 'no-repeat'; centerPane.style.backgroundPosition = '20px 10px'; centerPane.style.padding = '20px'; var h1 = document.createElement('h1'); h1.style.color = '#000'; h1.style.textAlign = 'center'; h1.style.fontSize = '36px'; h1.style.margin = '0 0 10px 0'; h1.style.padding = '8px 0 0 15px'; h1.style.fontFamily = 'arial'; h1.style.lineHeight = '36px'; h1.innerHTML = blocker_headline; centerPane.appendChild(h1); var p1 = document.createElement('p'); p1.innerHTML = blocker_instructionalText; p1.style.textAlign = 'center'; p1.style.padding = '20px 0 20px 0'; p1.style.margin = '0'; p1.style.fontSize = '18px'; p1.style.lineHeight = '18px'; p1.style.color = '#000'; p1.style.fontFamily = 'arial'; centerPane.appendChild(p1); var ul = document.createElement('ul'); ul.style.textAlign = 'center'; ul.style.margin = '0 0 10px 0'; ul.style.padding = '0'; ul.style.listStyleType = 'none'; for(var i = 0;i<blocker_surveryLinks.length;i++){ var li = document.createElement('li'); var a = document.createElement('a'); a.style.display = 'block'; a.style.fontSize = '17px'; a.style.lineHeight = '380px'; a.style.color = 'Black'; a.style.fontFamily = 'arial'; a.style.textDecoration = 'underline'; a.target = '_blank'; a.href = blocker_surveryLinks[i].url; a.innerHTML = blocker_surveryLinks[i].text; a.onclick = function(){ window.setTimeout(unblockContent, 55000); } li.appendChild(a) ul.appendChild(li); } centerPane.appendChild(ul); var p2 = document.createElement('p'); p2.style.textAlign = 'center'; p2.innerHTML = blocker_footerText; p2.style.padding = '20px 0 0 0'; p2.style.margin = '0'; p2.style.color = '#F50E0E'; p2.style.fontFamily = 'arial'; p2.style.fontSize = '15px'; p2.style.lineHeight = '15px'; centerPane.appendChild(p2); document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].appendChild(haze); document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].appendChild(centerPane); } function unblockContent(){ document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].style.overflow = blocker_originalBodyOverflow; document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].style.overflow = blocker_originalHtmlOverflow; document.getElementById('blocker_haze').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('blocker_centerPane').style.display = 'none'; //blocker_setCookie("content_unlocked", 1, 365, '/', ''); Set_Cookie( 'content_unlocked', 1 , 365, '/', '', '' ); } function Set_Cookie( name, value, expires, path, domain, secure ) { // set time, it's in milliseconds var today = new Date(); today.setTime( today.getTime() ); /* if the expires variable is set, make the correct expires time, the current script below will set it for x number of days, to make it for hours, delete * 24, for minutes, delete * 60 * 24 */ if ( expires ) { expires = expires * 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24; } var expires_date = new Date( today.getTime() + (expires) ); document.cookie = name + "=" +escape( value ) + ( ( expires ) ?

I have a code that opens a new window from a flash movie. The window opens fine, but the parent window goes blank and displays this on the top left of the screen:
[object] (in IE8)
[object Window] (in Firefox)
Does anyone know what I'm missing?
This is the code for the button that opens the new window:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:window.open('/RG_Map.pdf','RGCommunityMap','width=700,height=700');");

Thanks in advance, daniel.
I currently have a popup window that works fine but while that window is up on top and I click on another link that opens another window the popup goes behind that window. How do I code to get the popup window to always stay on top no matter what window I open up with the code I have below:

I adjusted a javascript code which was a clickable popup to an autoloading popup. Basicly when someone visits the page I want the popup to appear. It's working fine but Firefox doesn't display the popup on page load, only when clicked. (newsletter signup) Im just starting out on JavaScript. Can anyone help?
here's the code
$(document).ready(function() { // Here we will write a function when link click under class popup var rel = popuprel3; // Here we will describe a variable popupid which gets the // rel attribute from the clicked link var popupid = $(this).attr('rel'); // Now we need to popup the marked which belongs to the rel attribute // Suppose the rel attribute of click link is popuprel then here in below code // #popuprel will fadein $(popuprel3).fadeIn(); // append div with id fade into the bottom of body tag // and we allready styled it in our step 2 : CSS $('body').append('

'); $('#fade').css({'filter' : 'alpha(opacity=80)'}).fadeIn(); // Now here we need to have our popup box in center of // webpage when its fadein. so we add 10px to height and width var popuptopmargin = ($(popuprel3).height() + 10) / 2; var popupleftmargin = ($(popuprel3).width() + 10) / 2; // Then using .css function style our popup box for center allignment $(popuprel3).css({ 'margin-top' : -popuptopmargin, 'margin-left' : -popupleftmargin }); // Now define one more function which is used to fadeout the // fade layer and popup window as soon as we click on fade layer $('#fade').click(function() { // Add markup ids of all custom popup box here $('#fade , #popuprel3').fadeOut() return false; });});
theres a div on index.php with an id called popuprel3
Dear friends,
It opens a new popup window and is triggered via the rel="popup" or rel="popup nofollow" attributes in the specified external links, e.g.:
CodingForums CodingForums
The code however does not do its job in IE8. It follows the link, but does so in the old window, not a new popup window, and thus recurs to standard behavior of links.
Here is the Javascript-Code, included in the header:
var properties = { width: 900, height: 450, scrollbars: 'yes', resizable: 'yes' }; function popup(){ var link = this.getAttribute( 'href' ); var prop_str = ''; for( prop in properties ){ prop_str = prop_str + prop + '=' + properties[prop] + ','; } prop_str = prop_str.substr( 0, prop_str.length - 1 ); var newWindow = window.open( link, '_blank', prop_str ); if( newWindow ){ if( newWindow.focus ) newWindow.focus(); return false; } return true; } function setupPopups(){ var links = document.getElementsByTagName( 'a' ); for( var i=0; i<links.length; i++ ){ if( links[i].getAttribute( 'rel' ) && (links[i].getAttribute( 'rel' ) == 'popup' || links[i].getAttribute( 'rel' ) == 'popup nofollow')) links[i].onclick = popup; } } window.onload = function(){ setupPopups(); }
Since I am not an expert, I would greatly appreciate help to make this efficent code workable in IE8.
Thanks in advance!
I've written a javascript class that displays a popup, but as soon as the code executes the popup vanishes.
I've stepped through the code, line by line and there's nothing that "hides" the popup, the DIV that is created by the class, just reverts back to the default configuration generated by the following function:
function generateMarkup() { //build markup var newNode = document.createElement( 'DIV' ); newNode.id = IDs.HelpPopup; newNode.style.visibility = 'hidden'; newNode.innerHTML = [ '
', '
', '
', '
' ].join( '' ); return newNode; }
All the changes made to the DIVs via document.getElementById code is completely wiped out. For example:
document.getElementById("inside").innerHTML = sText;
If I stop processing just before the Class returns to the form, the generated code is exactly as I expect it to be with all the dynamic modifications.
The class is triggered by an onClick event on a BUTTON.
I've tried to put a "sleep" function in after executing the function that modifies the DIVs, but that seems to execute before the function, not after, so the popup just flickers into existence and then vanishes.
Can anyone give me any hint(s) as to how to stop this happening.
Hello Folks,
Here is my dropdown menu:
<select name="peeps"> <option value="Frank Tompson">Frank Tompson</option> <option value="Henry Wilson">Henry Wilson</option> <option value="Bill Kent">Bill Kent</option> <option value="Jessi McDonald"> Jessi McDonald</option> <option value="John Hays">John Hays</option>
How can i make it so if i click on John Hays a JavaScript pop up will say Hello John Hays, and if i click on Bill Kent a popup will say hello Bill Kent and if i click on any other name nothing happens?
I'm kinda hoping this is possible but haven't found any reference to it...
I have a parent page that opens a popup on click that launches a sidebar navigation on the right of the screen and resizes the parent page. What I am wanting to do is create a second popup (approx 250px high) that opens below the navigation (which is only around 600px high) but I have noticed that even when you have no status bar in the popup windows, they can still end up overlapping because of additional tools or plugins that the viewer has in their browser.
Is there any way to get the popups to butt up against each other instead of overlapping? More like a relative popup?
Any assistance would be appreciated. :-)
I want to restrict opening my popup window if it is already opened. For simple scenario, it is quite possible to do but in my case --
1) When parent page is opening popup window, it is getting refreshed (required from client for some reason).
2) Once submit button is clicked from popup window, again parent page is getting refreshed (again its a requirement from client side).
With these 2 conditions, I lost my saved value from variable and hence new popup is keep coming when the action is same.
Currently I am using below code to open popup
function OpenWindow()
if(winPop && !winPop.closed)
alert("Popup is already open");
winPop = window.open('MyPopupPage.aspx');
Please help me to get rid of this problem.
Thanks in advance.

I found this popup window, and it works for my project, now i would like to include a close option to the popup window. Either "close", a button, or click aywhere. Here is the coding I am currently using:
"; exit; ?>
what am i missing here lol ? thanks
UPDATE: i just had an idea, can i mix a href and an onClick together so that both are executed like this (i never tried it before)
the reason i use self.close is because i heard that it always closes the child not the parent. Log Off the return true will make it execute the href as well right?
Hey everyone,
I have a javascript problem which I think can be resolved by adding a few lines of code. I will try to explain my situation:
\  gameplay0001

back

this javascript I wrote, allows me to do this:
1) I click on the element with class .popuplink
2) The span with the class popup that contains a span whose text equals the title of popuplink (in this case gameplay0001) appears
3) when I click popupclosebtn the popup closes
this is all done by the next javascript:
$('.popuplink').each(function() { $(this).click(function() { var source = $(this).attr('title'); var popupContent = $(".popup:contains('" + source + "')"); var popupContainer = $("#popcontainerbase"); popupContainer.html(''); popupContainer.html(popupContent.html()); $("#popcontainerbase").fadeIn(200, function() { $('.popupclosebtn').click(function() { var popupContainer = $("#popcontainerbase"); popupContainer.html(''); $('#popcontainerbase').fadeOut(200, function() { }); }); $(document).keyup(function(e) { if (e.keyCode == 27) { var popupContainer = $("#popcontainerbase"); popupContainer.html(''); $('#popcontainerbase').fadeOut(200, function() { }); } }); }); }); });
Oh by the way, I put all the .popup content in a div called #popupcontainer, so my content won't affect my relative container div.
So, this works perfect, text and images can be placed in the span .popup; no proplems.
Additionally, I also have a jwplayer in my website. This works fine as well. With one exception:
When I try to put a jwplayer video into a .popup window, IE fails to put the video in there. it just ignores it.
My video popup page:
  trailer01

back

The javascript source on the bottom of the page:
jwplayer("trailer01").setup({ controlbar:"over", "controlbar.idlehide": false, controlbar:"bottom", autostart: true, flashplayer: "jwplayer/player.swf", skin: "jwplayer/skins/glow.zip", wmode: "transparent", file: "video/trailer01.mp4", width: 490, height: 340 });
so, that is my situation. This script will not work in internet explorer. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
thanx in forward
Iv been looking and trying to get something like this forever but cant find it so can some help:
I need a script that when you click the link it has a popup box with a form in it but thats easy to find, what im having trouble finding is a script that when you click submit on the form it stays in the popup box and you could use the information submited in the form.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Petrobras, said late Thursday that domestic oil output fell for a second consecutive month in February as maintenance shutdowns at offshore platforms undercut crude output.
Petrobras said that domestic crude-oil output fell 2.3% to 1.92 MMbopd, down from 1.965 MMbopd in January. Output from overseas operations fell slightly to an average 149,100 bopd, down from 149,300 bopd in January.
Domestic crude oil production was undercut by maintenance shutdowns at four offshore platforms at several of Brazil' s highest-producing fields in the Campos Basin during the month, Petrobras said. The P-33 and P-37 platforms at the Marlim field were joined by the P-53 platform at the Marlim Leste field and the P-54 platform at the Roncador field in shutting down for refurbishing, Petrobras said.
The maintenance work offset production gains at three new platforms that have entered operation so far in 2013, Petrobras said. In February, a long-term well test was started at the Sapinhoa Norte subsalt field and the FPSO Cidade de Itajai floating production, storage and offloading vessel initiated production, Petrobras said. The two platforms joined the FPSO Cidade de Sao Paulo, which started pumping oil from the Sapinhoa field in January.
Earlier in February, Chief Executive Maria das Gracas Foster said that the company faced a full schedule of maintenance shutdowns to overhaul some of the company' s aging offshore platforms. While output is expected to pick up in the second half of the year as new platforms start producing crude, Petrobras expects production to remain stable with 2012' s output of about 1.98 million barrels a day.
Domestic natural-gas output also was down 1.9% month-to-month in February at 62.9 MMcfd, Petrobras said.
Total crude oil and natural gas production was 2.56 MMboe, in February, down from 2.61 million BOE in January, Petrobras said.

Program description
Web Traffic Simulator (aka One million Clicks) software can simulate traffic on a web page, web script, image, ad, commercial banner. The traffic counters (for example Google Analytics) are tricked into believe that the visits are real since the web page is loaded in a real browser, exactly as a normal user will do.
What is it good for?
With Web Traffic Simulator you can generating fake traffic by reloading the specified web page(s) repeatedly in an integrated web browser. It has many purposes, such as:
How does it work
The program has an integrated Internet Explorer browser. It loads the specified web page in this browser at the intervals specified by you simulating a real visit on that page. All scripts, ads, banners, images, counters, etc, contained by that web page will be also refreshed. Using the embedded proxy module you can simulate traffic from all over the world so nobody can detect that your traffic is coming from a single computer.
Advertisement (ads/banners such as Google AdSense or Yahoo Ads) will also be refreshed when you refresh the page. These advertisement networks may not agree with that, so you should not refresh web pages that contains paid advertisement (ads/banners). Remove the ads/banners from your web pages before generating fake traffic to them.
Our software program can simulate real web traffic on the specified web page.
Can simulate web traffic from all over the world (from different IPs).
Easy to use. Embedded help system (help as tool tips).
You can specify different traffic settings for each web site.
'Speed Light' versus 'Web page refresh'
The Web Traffic Simulator package contains two programs because there are two types of traffic it can generate:
The difference between Speed Light program and Web page refresh program is that Speed Light only retrieves a file from a web site. No scripts are interpreted and because of this, Speed Light is really really fast.
On the other hand, Web page refresh has a real browser embedded in it. Any Java, Java Script, ads/banners nested in the specified page will be interpreted. Because Web page refresh must render and interpret the scripts in the page it is slower than Speed Light.
There are two types of traffic counters:

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Avocados: An Unlikely Love Affair
By Janet Tharpe
There was a time when my husband loved to share guacamole with me... because he would get to eat it all! I was a non-believer, an avid avocado avoider. I took my tortilla chips straight, with just a hint of salsa if I was feeling wild. But, oh how far I've come!
With an open mind and a good recipe, I've yet to meet an ingredient that couldn't win me over. Through the oodles of cooking we do in the Test Kitchen, avocados slowly began making regular appearances in my fruit bowl. They'd get sliced into a salad, spread onto a sandwich, even blended into a smoothie! And you know what, I loved it.
Naturally rich and creamy, avocados are one of the most fascinating foods you'll ever come across. They're full of vitamins and minerals, and packed with healthy oils! (Leave it to me to fall for the fattiest fruit possible, huh?) They are downright crave-worthy served on their own with just a sprinkling of lime juice and salt, but also hold up well in the many inventive recipes we've had the pleasure to toss them in.
So, remember the smoothies I mentioned a moment ago? We weren't joking! Melissa Baldan's Avocado Strawberry Smoothie is just that: a creamy, sweet, super strawberry treat. "Don't let the name (or ingredients) throw you or keep you from trying this," encourages Melissa. "This is a summertime staple at our house and my kids - currently 8 and 10 - ask for this daily!" The unexpected blending of strawberries, avocado, vanilla ice cream and milk is peppered with the delightful flavors of honey, cinnamon and nutmeg. The result is kid-friendly nutrition disguised as an extra thick strawberry milkshake! Let's hear it for hidden fruits and veggies!
Amanda Fields and Nikki Smith are fans of mingling their avocados with fruit as well, only they choose to serve them in salad form.
"I love Avocados!!!" exclaims Nikki proudly. She suggests whiling away your "lazy" summer afternoons reclined with the refreshing avocado salad that she whips up regularly. Filled with red onion, sweet orange sections and ample cilantro, this salad of romaine lettuce and avocado is nothing short of delightful. The unexpected combination of flavors works surprisingly well. And the simple dressing of salad oil, lime and sugar is a simple pick-me-up for any summer salad. Color us refreshed!
Equal yum-props go out to Amanda for her grapefruit-y spin on light, summer deliciousness. Her E-Z Grapefruit Salad has been passed down through the generations and is as easy as they come. "My Aunt loved this recipe on warm summer days," says Amanda. "She would say, 'With the already-prepared grapefruit sections, this salad can be fixed in a snap!'" Amped up by the addition of red wine vinegar and Roquefort cheese, this avocado salad really transcends the expected and is a tribute to the creativity of Amanda's aunt. "She passed away," says Amanda, "but her recipes keep her active in my heart."
It was a friend who introduced Jeanne Benavidez to her now signature recipe for Avocado Stuffed Tomatoes. The miniature stuffed tomatoes burst with flavor and are a take-along favorite... perfect for picnics and cookouts! "A friend brought this to a back yard party once and I really liked it," she says of the Blue Ribbon dish. "She was kind enough to give me the easy recipe. I have made it several times and everyone seems to really enjoy the little morsels of coolness." Stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese and avocado, these beautiful cherry tomatoes are as tasty as they are cute. They're a festive addition to any table, adding a special pop of color and yummy flavor.
With recipes like this it's hard to remember back to that time in my life when avocados were met with a turned-up nose. It just goes to show that even as adults we have so many wonderful flavors and techniques still waiting to be sampled and enjoyed. It sure is one delicious journey, isn't it?
Straw's Kitchen GrandsBest - Jul 17, 2012
Congratulations to everyone who made it onto the "avocado" page this week (7-17-`12).
Some great recipes this week.
Laurie Sanders laluvtacook - Jul 17, 2012
Could someone explain why most all avocado recipes call for Hass avocados? Sorry I dont know what that means the brand, type, region they're grown in...just wondering?
Dee Stillwell LILLYDEE - Jul 17, 2012
Hass avacados are a type, named after the man who first grafted and grew them. They are mostly grown here in southern California..They are the dark bumpy skinned ones, and in my opinion the best flavor and textured ones.
Naomi Knox NomizPlacezHere - Jul 17, 2012
I agree, Dee!! I've grown up so spoiled to have them right here in our So. Cal area ... they are the best I have ever eaten! Very rich in flavor! ;D
MSamm Alba MSamm_Alba - Jul 17, 2012
Avocados and goat cheese is a marriage made in heaven!

It's voyeuristic fascination that makes Forbes lists ever popular. From Beats by Dre to Roc Nation Sports, it's certainly a diverse range of investments. This time around, Forbes has imagined what the five wealthiest hip-hop artists portfolios would look like if they were to reflect the assets they most frequently refer to in their music. Forbes has taken the lyrics of Birdman's Priceless, Jay Z's Magna Carta… Holy Grail, 50 Cent's Before I Self Destruct, Dr. Dre's 2001 and Diddy's Last Train to Paris, and broken them down into individual, easy-to-read charts. To create the lyrical portfolios, Forbes tallied up every mention of assets – including frequent synonyms – and any citing of publicly traded companies. It all makes for an interesting read.

Six near runway collisions at San
Francisco, New York, Ft. Lauderdale and other airports were
narrowly averted in just the last six months... leading the NTSB to
highlight the issue of runway safety as among its most important
issue areas to be addressed by the Federal Aviation Administration
At a public meeting Thursday, the NTSB reviewed its "Most
Wanted List" of safety improvements -- a list established in 1990
that focuses attention on critical changes needed by federal
agencies to reduce accidents and save lives.
Half of the 44 safety recommendations in the 15 federal issue
areas on the Most Wanted List were issued to the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), with other recommendations issued to the
National Air Traffic Controllers Association (NATCA) and the US
Coast Guard. The rest were geared towards various ground transport
Areas of concern by the NTSB shared by both aviation and ground
transport included measures to prevent vehicle collisions, and
reducing human fatigue. The NTSB added three safety recommendations
on air traffic controller fatigue to the existing aviation issue
area that addresses human fatigue. The Board is asking the FAA to
develop a program to educate controllers and those who schedule
them about the causes, effects and safety implications of
The Board also asked the FAA to work in conjunction with
National Air Traffic Controllers Union (NATCA) in revising
work-scheduling policies to reduce the incidence of fatigue on the
job. "Since air traffic controllers play such a crucial role in the
safety of our air transportation system, we must ensure that the
performance of these professionals is not compromised by something
as preventable as human fatigue," said NTSB Chairman Mark
Other aviation-related areas of concern included runway safety,
reducing the potential for explosions caused by fuel/air vapors,
and airframe icing.
In addition to pinpointing important safety issues, the Most
Wanted List also rates agencies by the timeliness with which they
act to implement the recommendations. The Board rates the FAA's
responses thus far to runway incursions and excursions; aircraft
icing; equipping aircraft with updated flight data recorders;
requiring cockpit resource management (CRM) training for Part 121
and 135 flight crews; and combating pilot and controller fatigue as
The lone "Acceptable" rating for an aviation-related matter
comes on the industry's response to preclude the operation of
transport-category airplanes with flammable fuel/air vapors in the
fuel tank on all aircraft -- though the Board notes progress is
moving slowly.

Bomb Scares, Belligerent Tea Partiers and Last-Minute Disenfranchisement – This Election Is Already Ugly
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
In Florida, Ohio and North Carolina, a majority of Republicans believe that Democrats will steal this election and a majority of Dems are convinced that the GOP's going to do the same. It's a sign of how deeply compromised our democracy has become.
Credit for this sorry state of affairs goes to the right-wing fabulists who concocted the specter of widespread in-person voter fraud simply to pass ID laws that depress turnout in Dem-leaning constituencies. Also thank a number of recent Secretaries of State bent on decreasing the vote for partisan gain -- folks like Katherine Harris, Ken Blackwell and John Husted.
Blame the constant stream of BS stories hyped by the conservative media – endless dogs and dead people voting. And the Supreme Court for intervening in 2000. Save some ire for Wally O'Dell and Diebold in 2004, and a little bit for lefty bloggers who turn every voting glitch into a major threat to our elections. This widespread distrust is already bearing fruits, with a series of nasty incidents at early voting places.
In Orange County, Florida, which Obama won by 90,000 votes in 2008, the final day of early voting was interrupted for 3 hours when police discovered two " suspicious packages," one of which they destroyed in a controlled detonation.
At the Huffington Post, Dan Froomkin writes:
If Election Day goes anything like the past 17 days of early voting in North Carolina, here's what you can expect at your local precincts on Tuesday:
Belligerent citizens demanding the right to personally inspect the voting process and yelling "shut up" at the top of their lungs when election officials tell them that only official poll observers can do that.
Official poll observers who have been improperly trained by the groups they represent and think it's their job to interrogate voters rather than just watch.
Long lines, which means that a lot of people end up waiting outside the designated no-electioneering zones, getting harangued by campaign workers.
Shouting matches between Republican and Democratic campaign workers -- and sometimes voters standing in line -- that can involve name-calling, threatening gestures, and the summoning of law enforcement.
A guy driving a tractor-trailer bed filled with effigies of Democratic officials, including President Barack Obama, with nooses around their neck. (Federal officials are looking into that one, which took place at an early voting center in Eastern North Carolina on Thursday.)
Police were called when a County Commissioner in Manatee County, Florida, became belligerent with poll-workers who asked her to refrain from campaignig for her son within the no-electioneering zone.
In Wisconsin, they're trying to avoid a repeat of the chaos that aggressive poll-watchers created during the recall. The Wisconsin Journal:
"Some of the observers felt they needed to try to intimidate our workers or the voters, and that just won't be tolerated this time," said Diane Hermann-Brown, past president and current communications chairwoman for the Wisconsin Municipal Clerks Association. "Badgering isn't going to be an option. There won't be any third or fourth chances. You're going to deal with it, or you are out."
Conservatives have complained the Government Accountability Board has placed too many restrictions on where observers can stand, and who they can question, but election agency director Kevin Kennedy said a proper balance has been struck between the rights of observers, the privacy of voters and the need to keep lines moving when turnout is heavy.
Meanwhile, the Romney campaign is itself training Wisconsin poll-watchers -- to mislead voters about their rights.

Uber ride-sharing service under fire for price gouging
Image showing the Uber transportation app.
One app that's on many of our phones is Uber. A lot of people love the ride-sharing service, which allows you to summon a car with the press of a button on your smartphone. But now Uber is in hot water for price gouging.
If you wanted a car during last weekend's snowstorm in New York City, you would have had to pay as much as $35 dollars a mile, with a $175 dollar minimum. To talk about this controversy, we're joined by Marcus Wohlsen, staff writer at Wired Business.

This is what I did:
- Brought 150ml of double cream up to the boil, threw in a handful of fresh lemon balm leaves, clamped the lid on and left for a couple of hours.
- Melted 250g milk chocolate buttons (Chocolate by Trish 38%)
- Brought cream up to near boiling point again, then poured on to the chocolate (through a sieve). Added 1/2 tsp Cornish honey.
- Used a whisk to gently stir, almost fold the liquids together until all incorporated into a beautiful glossy mass.
- Placed 24 ground cherries at the bottom of some chocolate moulds then spooned the ganache over the top.
- I left these to set, hoping I could turn them out cleanly - hey ho, best laid plans!
The buttons were well balanced, creamy, rich and for a milk variety, strongly chocolatey - I could quite happily have eaten the whole 350g bagful. Somehow, the flavour and mouth feel reminded me of a silky smooth good quality hot chocolate - nice! I still have 100g of Trish's buttons left so am looking forward to trying them in another guise. I would also like to try her 64% and 74% dark varieties.

I bought this because the panel on my car had been patched before. I wanted to replace the whole panel so I got this. I found the fit was excellent. No massaging was needed. I was amazed at how easy and well the whole process went.

In the Age of enlightenment, literature had grown in importance, and from the early 1830s, Russian literature underwent an spectacular golden age in poetry, prose, and drama. After the Revolution of 1917, Russian literature split into Soviet and white émigré parts.

From the summit of Pico Ruivo a keen hiker can take in the stunning vista of Madeira from coast to coast; the lush valleys of subtropical forests have World Heritage Site status, and are a haven for rare plants and animals.
Or, if you are seeking a more gentle approach, the fringe of port-towns along Madeira's south coast offers a welcoming base for excursions to explore the interior and along the coast at your leisure, as well as providing a touch of the familiar to European visitors.
As a Portuguese archipelago there are plenty of cheap flights to Madeira from locations across Europe. Its main airport is situated in its capital city Funchal which, with a population of only 111,000, welcomes tourists with a friendly and easy atmosphere and a pace to suit you.
Don't let this relaxed approach fool you though – Madeira knows how to throw a party! A packed calendar of events gives the people of the island every excuse to celebrate, and right now it is carnival season.
The Festas da Sé comes at the end of May and sees the cathedral district of the capital beautifully garlanded, and local restaurants and bars spread out into the street with food, wine, music and dancing for all into the early hours.
Plus, why not stay an extra few days and see the celebrations for the Atlantic Festival in early June, including fireworks displays and classical music concerts held in the city's beautiful churches.

The school cafeteria just got a whole lot healthier. Earlier this year, the USDA launched the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act designed to improve the nutrition of 32 million schoolchildren nationwide. This August and September, when kids head back to the classroom, hot dogs will give way to turkey subs on whole-wheat, 1% and skim milk will replace whole milk, and fruits and vegetables will command prime real estate on student's plates.
The goal: to deliver wholesome meals that mirror the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the government's blueprint for optimal nutrition. "It's well documented that well nourished children perform better in the classroom," says Kristi L. King, R.D., L.D., a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. "With these changes we can expect to see our kids' bodies filled with healthy foods and their brains working on all cylinders for peak performance."
Here's what's on the menu:
A bigger bounty of fruits and vegetablesThe push for more produce begins at breakfast where every morning meal will now contain at least one serving of fruit. Lunches will do double duty with both a fruit and a vegetable. And those vegetables will be filled with a variety of hues ranging from red and orange to deep, dark green. "Currently, only 10 percent of children consume dark green or red-orange vegetables on a daily basis," says Deborah S. Beauvais, R.D., S.N.S., a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. "Each of these colors gives kids different nutrients they need for energy production and concentration."
An eye on heart healthAlthough it may be hard to imagine now, the type of fat in our kids' diets can impact their heart health later in life. To keep young hearts in tip top share, saturated fat will continue to be capped at 10 percent of calories overall. Yet, new measures will be taken to help schools meet the goal. For starters, only fat free or 1 percent milk will be offered. Schools will also receive assistance rounding up foods that are lower in saturated fat like skinless poultry, lean meat and heart smart vegetable oils. In addition, trans fats will be limited to zero grams per serving.
Sodium gets slashedBefore the implementation of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act a school lunch could easily contain more than 1,400 milligrams of sodium. That's 60 percent of most children's maximum daily allotment. So it's no surprise that schools will need to get tough on sodium - just not all at once. Over the next ten years schools will slowly be required to reduce sodium by 25 to 50 percent, starting with a 5 to 10 percent decrease by 2014.
Whole grains make their move"Whole grains take longer to digest so they provide more sustainable energy than refined grains," says King. They also contain important nutrients like B vitamins, selenium and magnesium. To make it easier for kids to get their fill, half of all grains offered will now be whole. That means more whole-wheat bread, spaghetti and pizza crust. The whole grain push doesn't end there. In two years all grains offered will be required to be whole.
Improvements beyond the lunchroomBecause busy students don't always eat in the cafeteria, the USDA is currently in the process of developing guidelines for foods sold from vending machines and outside of the lunchroom. But many schools aren't waiting. "We're seeing more and more healthy vending machines and they're getting rave reviews," says Beauvais. With choices like sandwiches, salads, fresh fruits, veggies, and low fat and fat free milk, grabbing a bite after school will soon be a whole lot healthier too.
