Meet the Totem media player
Using Totem
It's a bit of an anticlimax to describe its use. Just open a file or location from the Movie menu, and Totem automatically starts to play it. Alternatively, you can select a playlist entry and click the Play button or just double-click the file name to start playback.
Because Totem is the default Gnome movie player, you can also double-click on any video file in Nautilus to start playback via Totem. For more delight, Heron has also deployed Totem as its default plugin for playing streaming video from Mozilla.
To the Test
After configuring Heron with the extra GStreamer plugins, I tested Totem with files in a variety of formats, including AVI, MPEG, WMV, FLV, and MOV. All performed with flawless sound and video, so I moved on to testing Totem with my DVD collection.
Again, performance was flawless on my unencrypted DVDs, and with libdvdcss2 installed, Totem had no trouble playing my commercial encrypted discs.
The YouTube browser is a neat feature in Totem. As mentioned, when the browser plugin is installed, the sidebar's drop-down menu includes an entry for it. Select the browser, and the sidebar will reform itself to provide a textbox for text strings that define your YouTube search.
Figure 4 shows the results of my search for "tai chi chuan." The sidebar splits itself into two tabbed displays of thumbnails: one for the direct results of the search and another for related videos. Frankly, I found this feature to be ultra-cool, and I wouldn't be surprised if it turns up in other media players for Linux.
Other plugins of interest include the Local Search and the DVB plugins. Local Search scans your drives for supported media files and lists them in the playlist, whereas the DVB plugin adds the capability to view digital video broadcasts.
At this time, Totem's user manual is a work in progress. It's not so extensive as the Rhythmbox manual, but Totem's operation is so transparent that even a newbie might never need to open it. However, if more information is needed, see the sites listed in the Resources at the end of this article.

May 2nd 2008 8:29AM All this talk of keyboards - let's not forget the humble mouse! I have a logitech laser mouse that has an extra mini-button to the left of the left mouse button, a scoll wheel that tilt-clicks from left to right, and two buttons reachable with my right thumb. This gives me five extra buttons I can map without losing any functionality here.The extra mini-button is right there and so easy to press, so it's Blink on my mage, for example.
I then bind all the other abilities to Q, E, R, F etc as well as shift, ctrl, and alt modifiers for each. Just map strafe to A and D, it's all you need. I use a bar mod that lays out the buttons in a way that makes sense so I don't forget which key does what, and have the option of clicking if I need to. Another huge improvement for me was binding targetting to the mousewheel (I use ctrl-mousewheel for the old "zoom adjust") and this frees up TAB for binding as well.

So despite there being no sense in making predictions, you're happy to have a go anyway? Way to undermine your own opinion!
How misspelling might get you keylogged {WoW}
May 1st 2008 11:58AM "Yeah, install addblock and be unable to use most sites - including some honest wow sites which have been hacked in the past."
Properly configured, Adblock won't stop you using anything.
"So they can program software to hide on your machine and record and relay your keyboard presses, but not read the text box where your login is - yeah right."
Yeah. Right.
It's easy to intercept keystrokes coming in from a keyboard but difficult to create some software that would scan the screen and recognise exactly where it needs to look, and recognise the characters that are in that area of the screen - which are often masked with asterisks anyway.
It's not a problem that you seem have no idea how technology of this nature works. It's hardly a requisite. But it does make you sound like an idiot when you use your position of ingorance to launch sarcastic attacks against people who are ultimately better informed than you.

Gold prices dropping in the US {WoW}
Apr 18th 2008 7:37AM Durc, not so. I've only recently come back to the game, rolling a new character on a new server with some RL friends who started playing. A new character can pick herbs, ore etc and sell to the "level 70 attuned" prices. Fishing deviate fish has given me all my 18-slot bags and a ton of gold in the bank and I'm still only level 23.
Gold prices dropping in the US {WoW}
Apr 18th 2008 2:44AM This chart doesn't show anything about the amount of people buying gold or amounts of real world money changing hands - only that a single unit of gold has fallen in price.
With all the dailies and easy access to gold, there is inflation happening in WoW. One gold is worth less than it used to be. This is surely reflected in the gold sellers prices too.
Maybe people are still buying gold as much as they did before, and the sellers are making as much money from it - they're just buying MORE gold for their money now.
Addon Spotlight: Control Freak {WoW}
Apr 12th 2008 6:05AM Good work Tekkub, have used your addons for a while now and they are always streamlined and do exactly what they need to without frills.
One "frill" I'd love to see in Control Freak (or perhaps you can recommend an alternative) would be somethng that simply barks out what has happened to a sheep (sap, trap..) that has been broken. E.g a simple "/p Sheep broken by Lulzhuntar's Multi-Shot" just so everyone knows a) the sheep is free and incoming and b) the mage is aware.
Is this possible?

Patrick-Murray Administration Names Juan Vega To The Chelsea Housing Authority Board
March 8, 2012 - BOSTON – The Patrick-Murray Administration's Department of Housing & Community Development today announced the appointment of Juan Vega to the Chelsea Housing Authority (CHA) Board of Commissioners. Mr. Vega will serve as one of five members to oversee the housing authority going forward as the 90-day receivership at the CHA comes to an end.
"Juan's commitment to active citizenship is a tremendous asset to his community, to the Commonwealth and to the challenges we face," said Governor Deval Patrick. "We appreciate his willingness to serve in this capacity."
Mr. Vega currently serves as the Executive Director of Centro Latino de Chelsea, a community-based organization that addresses the health, education and social goals of Latino and immigrant families in the greater Boston area.
Mr. Vega's appointment comes after the Governor called for the resignation of all five board members and the Executive Director of the CHA after it was discovered they falsified financial documents to the state misrepresenting the Executive Director's salary. The Governor has also implemented a series of sweeping reforms to increase accountability and transparency in the Commonwealth's public housing system.
Local housing authorities are independent entities and each five-member board is responsible for oversight. Four of the five members are elected or appointed locally and one is appointed by the Governor's Office.

Mutant Mutant Mass
This is the ultimate lean gainer you've been waiting for! Mutant Mass is a serious formula, designed with only hard working athletes in mind, who demand power, absolute size and all out strength. If you are serious about gaining slabs of lean muscle mass, faster than ever, then Mutant Mass is the answer. Mutant Mass was developed over 2 years of research and is based on sound, proven science. More importantly though, the finished Mutant Mass formula was also tested in the gym, where it was put through its paces by real life bodybuilders and strength athletes. The results? If you add just 1 serving of Mutant Mass per day to your routine, you can add up to 5lbs of fat free muscle in just the next 14 days, increase your bench press by 10-20lbs and boost your chest size by 2.5 centimeters (1"). That's not rocket science - that's just Mutant Mass doing its amazing job. Mutant Mass is all about gaining rock hard muscle - and lots of it! Building muscle requires the right protein mix to expand the muscle tissue and repair it fast. The protein must also be spared from being wasted for the body's energy needs, while the muscle also requires massive infusions of clean calories to replace glycogen used up during training. Digestion, absorption, triggering calorie uptake and manipulating protein sequencing - the Mutant Mass formula takes all that into account and hits a home run like nothing else you've ever tried! How does Mutant Mass Work? 92% of all weight trainers never gain the mass they want. Mutant Mass was designed specifically to address this one, solitary need - pure added mass. The formula is light years ahead of what is currently available in weight gainers. Other gainers are mostly high sugar and high lactose simple blends of sugar and cheaper milk or whey proteins - Mutant Mass went all out to create the ultimate weight gainer!
Customers who purchased this product also purchased
How do I use Mutant Mass(TM)? To gain slabs of muscle that makes people notice, you need to break down the muscle first (that's doing the heavy training in the gym) and follow that up by feeding your wasted muscles. Assuming you are already eating 4 meals a day, take 1 serving of Mutant Mass immediately after training. You will feel your muscles surge with size, as the intricate array of super nutrients get taken right up into the muscle belly. Why do I need different proteins? The 10 superior proteins deliver a vast cross spectrum of amino acids for triggering MORE muscle uptake. This trademarked blend is designed to "push" more usable protein into the muscle and showers your muscles with a continuous flow of free form, di, tri and oligo peptide amino acids from protein. 92% of those trying to gain lean mass who are having trouble, usually cannot gain muscle because they're using the wrong proteins. ISO-STACK10 is perfect, but when blended with the specific carbs and lipothermic fats in Mutant Mass, the protein is directed to its primary job - building pure muscle. I know protein builds muscle - so why do I need carbs and fats? Muscle tissue is almost all protein. But when you are training hard and trying to add slabs of strong, sinewy muscle, you have to make sure the protein actually gets to the muscle. For that majority of people having problems putting on mass, valuable protein is being wasted and used up for energy before it can even get to the muscles. To fuel your body's energy demands, you need adequate sources of real fuel - carbs. Mutant Mass' 3:1 carb to protein ratio delivers the optimal ratio for building hard muscles fast. Your body gets the fuel (carbs) it needs for energy, while allowing the protein to get delivered to the muscles fully intact. And by using the ISO-STACK10 blend of 10 superior timed release proteins, you're delivering a timed release total gainer matrix; carbs first for energy and protein right afterwards for pure muscle building. You will feel the difference Mutant Mass delivers. What about the carbs in Mutant Mass - what is VEXTRAGO? This is a new, higher molecular weight (mW) sugar free carbohydrate from a newly developed strain of barley starch. It's designed specifically for athletic use to pump up muscle glycogen stores in record time, sugar free, while also doing it without stomach disruption nor unnecessarily dehydrating athletes by pulling water into the gut. VEXTRAGO is beyond what other high molecular weight carbs have been before. In fact new VEXTRAGO has a molecular weight that is 71% higher than anything else in sports nutrition before it. What does VEXTRAGO do? Scientific research shows that higher mW carbs absorb faster (up to 80% faster) and thus help replenish muscle glycogen faster (up to 70% faster). VEXTRAGO is unique in that it absorbs even faster than sugar, but does not adversely spike blood sugar levels, so it keeps your gains lean. In the battle for size, timing is everything, so the faster your muscles take in their needed carbs after training, the faster muscles will grow! Imagine - all the carbo loading your muscles can handle, without all the sugar! |

Actors Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith may be headed for divorce court, if the latest rumors are to be believed.
Just as the rumors surfaced, so did a video of the 51-year-old Banderas dancing with Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat aboard a yacht in late June while attending the Cannes Film Festival.
People.com, however, reports the two are in good shape. "They seem absolutely fine. Honestly, they seem happy," said a source who recently saw them together.
Banderas told "Extra" last October the secret to his 15-year marriage is "Love. It's not complicated. We are also not afraid to reinvent ourselves as a couple. We are both family oriented."

Barton Creek, Crenshaw Cliffside ****
When the Canadian Tour played its season-opening event here a few years ago, players looked at the scorecard and wondered how such a short course could possibly challenge them. But they found out as soon as they stroked a putt on the steeply pitched first green. This fun, spacious design—whose bunkers were renovated and greens regrassed last year—invites you to pound tee balls with abandon. But enormous, slippery and baffling putting surfaces await at every bend. The green at the par-four fourth is as big as a West Texas ranch tank—it's a four-club spread from front to back. The short par-three seventeenth plays to a green cut into the bank of a canyon. It looks simple enough—until you try it.
Architects: Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, 1991. Yardage: 6,630. Par: 71. Slope: 132. Greens Fees: $95-$180. Contact: 8212 Barton Club Drive, Austin; 800-336-6158, www.bartoncreek.com.
Barton Creek, Fazio Canyons ****
From the back tees, the rugged and remote Canyons course—a close second to the Fazio Foothills layout for top billing at Barton Creek—poses the most arduous test in all of Austin thanks to a succession of intimidating carries over age-old escarpments. If either nine is scorable, it's definitely the front, which is sheltered from the wind by mature red oaks and madrones. The holes on the back nine edge along the seams and pockets of the beautiful cedar and limestone hills that give this corner of central Texas its distinct topography. Beginning at the elevated tee of the deceptively narrow par-four fifteenth and culminating at the long, creek-laced par-five final hole, the closing stretch at the Canyons just might prove to be the most invigorating hour of your trip.
Architect: Tom Fazio, 2000. Yardage: 7,153. Par: 72. Slope: 138. Greens Fees: $140-$285. Contact: 8511 Henry Marx Lane, Austin; 800-336-6158, www.bartoncreek.com.
Horseshoe Bay, Applerock ****
This Robert Trent Jones Sr. design in the Hill Country forty-five minutes northwest of Austin slithers through the natural arroyos like a rattlesnake in pursuit. Several of its tees are perched high on ridges, including at the par-five tenth, where the view of distant whitecaps on the water defines the region's allure. Live oak, persimmon and juniper trees frame the fairways, which are punctuated by Jones's trademark amoeba-shaped bunkering. Applerock is the youngest of the three eighteens at Horseshoe Bay Resort, located on the shores of Lake Lyndon Baines Johnson. In terms of challenge, it ranks comfortably between its two siblings, the fiercer Ram Rock course and the far gentler Slick Rock.
Architect: Robert Trent Jones Sr., 1986. Yardage: 6,999. Par: 72. Slope: 136. Greens Fees: $99-$119 (resort guests only). Contact: 1 Bay West Boulevard; 830-598-6561, www.hsbresort.com.
Golf Club at Circle C ***1/2
Five years ago, the Bermuda fairways at Circle C wilted like a rose after Valentine's Day. But new management installed a million-dollar irrigation system, hired a greenskeeper from a top course in Dallas and sharpened the amorphous bunkers to restore the polish of the most intriguing layout in Austin proper. The firmness and flow of the fairways require precise shotmaking. And the understated par-four twelfth features a rippling, organically shaped green that slopes upward at its edges, allowing approach shots to funnel toward the flag; it's marvelously reminiscent of the finest work of golden-age architect Perry Maxwell.
Architect: Jay Morrish, 1992. Yardage: 6,855. Par: 72. Slope: 130. Greens Fees: $70-$90. Contact: 7401 Highway 45, Austin; 512-288-4297, www.thegolfclubatcirclec.com.

Weymouth New Testament (WNT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Jesus said to His disciples, "It is inevitable that causes of stumbling should come; but alas for him through whom they come! | 1 Jesus said to his disciples: "Things that cause people to sin are bound to come, but woe to that person through whom they come. |
2 It would be well for him if, with a millstone round his neck, he were lying at the bottom of the sea, rather than that he should cause even one of these little ones to fall. | 2 It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin. |
3 Be on your guard. "If your brother acts wrongly, reprove him; and if he is sorry, forgive him; | 3 So watch yourselves. "If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. |
4 and if seven times in a day he acts wrongly towards you, and seven times turns again to you and says, `I am sorry,' you must forgive him." | 4 If he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says, 'I repent,' forgive him." |
5 And the Apostles said to the Lord, "Give us faith." | 5 The apostles said to the LORD, "Increase our faith!" |
6 "If your faith," replied the Lord, "is like a mustard seed, you might command this black-mulberry-tree, `Tear up your roots and plant yourself in the sea,' and instantly it would obey you. | 6 He replied, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it will obey you. |
7 But which of you who has a servant ploughing, or tending sheep, will say to him when he comes in from the farm, `Come at once and take your place at table,' | 7 "Suppose one of you had a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Would he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, 'Come along now and sit down to eat'? |
8 and will not rather say to him, `Get my dinner ready, make yourself tidy, and wait upon me till I have finished my dinner, and then you shall have yours'? | 8 Would he not rather say, 'Prepare my supper, get yourself ready and wait on me while I eat and drink; after that you may eat and drink'? |
9 Does he thank the servant for obeying his orders? | 9 Would he thank the servant because he did what he was told to do? |
10 So you also, when you have obeyed all the orders given you, must say, "`There is no merit in our service: what we have done is only what we were in duty bound to do.'" | 10 So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, 'We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.' " |
11 As they pursued their journey to Jerusalem, He passed through Samaria and Galilee. | 11 Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee. |
12 And as He entered a certain village, ten men met Him who were lepers and stood at a distance. | 12 As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at a distance |
13 In loud voices they cried out, "Jesus, Rabbi, take pity on us." | 13 and called out in a loud voice, "Jesus, Master, have pity on us!" |
14 Perceiving this, He said to them, "Go and show yourselves to the Priests." And while on their way to do this they were made clean. | 14 When he saw them, he said, "Go, show yourselves to the priests." And as they went, they were cleansed. |
15 One of them, seeing that he was cured, came back, adoring and praising God in a loud voice, | 15 One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. |
16 and he threw himself at the feet of Jesus, thanking Him. He was a Samaritan. | 16 He threw himself at Jesus' feet and thanked him--and he was a Samaritan. |
17 "Were not all ten made clean?" Jesus asked; "but where are the nine? | 17 Jesus asked, "Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? |
18 Have none been found to come back and give glory to God except this foreigner?" | 18 Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?" |
19 And He said to him, "Rise and go: your faith has cured you." | 19 Then he said to him, "Rise and go; your faith has made you well." |
20 Being asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God was coming, He answered, "The Kingdom of God does not so come that you can stealthily watch for it. | 20 Once, having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, |
21 Nor will they say, `See here!' or `See there!' --for the Kingdom of God is within you." | 21 nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you." |
22 Then, turning to His disciples, He said, "There will come a time when you will wish you could see a single one of the days of the Son of Man, but will not see one. | 22 Then he said to his disciples, "The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it. |

More reviews by KaitlinCaldwell
This is my favorite blush/bronzer combo, I bought this very cheap at big lots and did not know of philosophy, but fell in love with first application!
I wear lots of foundation & blush, it applys on very well. I love the bronzer for contouring as it compliments my porceline skintone amazing, I use this every single day and have still not ran out after 7 months of use. Overall I am absolutley satisfied with this product and will continue to purchase!!!
I didn't even have to re-apply after 8 hours!!! :)
More reviews by TrainedDreamer
The blush portion of this is a tad too dark for my porcelain skin, but it's wearable on days I don't wear much else. However the bronzer side...is amazing! It looks so natural on me. I use it for contouring as it has no shimmer.
Love this product. The bronzer is perfect color for my fair skin tone, not orange, not shimmery, and not too dark. The pink blush is bog bad as well, verh finely milled and light on the cheeks. Tidy and sleek package, I would definitely repurchase

ALL PROS: VERY natural bronzer (no orange or shimmer) that i like for contouring very much. I'm N15, leaning to NC, and the "honest/true" combo is wonderful for me. The blush is a beautiful cool pink with no shimmer that is quite natural and easy to build with. It blends easily because it goes on smooth. Mine has lasted me forever in the pan.
ALTERNATE: If you need a much more pigmented but still blendable blush, try Bobbi Brown. If you like the more sheer, blendable texture, you may also like LORAC.

This product came in a former TSV kit. Philosophy markets this as a mineral blush compact duo. If you watch Bare Escentuals' Leslie Blodgett on TV, she tells you that minerals cannot be pressed, because then you are contradicting the natural concept. Whether or not one believes that, I'll leave to those reading this review, because this Philosophy blush can make you fall in love with a pressed blush all over again. Don't get me wrong, I still like my BE blushes, but this just glides on. (I did use the Philosophy, poreless, flawless supernatural spf as a primer) The pink shade is just right, and the bronze isn't overly dark. I would definitely buy this product on its own. And on a superficial note, the sleek black compact that the blush comes in, is pretty.

I've offered to help a friend start wintersowing this weekend and am looking for a quick alternative to collecting and using recycled bottles/containers. I personally use 2L pop bottles and underbed storage bins, however, I find that the underbed storage bins become brittle and break easily after a year or two in a Canadian winter.
I was thinking of using corrugated plastic roofing material screwed onto an 8" tall wooden box that you just put over 4" plastic pots? I could just buy some 1" x 8" x 10' pieces of lumber and build a wooden box without a bottom, drill drainage holes into the roofing material and then attach to the top of the box. Then I could put the whole thing over the wintersown pots out on the patio deck. Do you think this would work and be worth it? Does anyone have any better ideas? Attached is a link to what I was thinking of building. |

I might suggest you not screw the roofing material (this material is clear?) on but perhaps just set a couple of bricks or rocks on it. When spring comes you need to have access to seedlings & remove cover in daytime yet cover at night time. If screwed in, that might be hard to keep covering & uncovering. I have read where people use clear plastic too for covering. Might be cheaper as Walmart sells it for like $6 & it's a HUGE roll! It's back in the painting dept. Why bottomless? What will hold the dirt in? Do you plan to just use cups set inside you frame? |
Bricks are a good idea, thanks. The corrugated plastic roofing material is clear and can be used for making cold frames (my dad has some). It holds its shape as it's a solid sheet. I thought about clear plastic (like a shower curtain) but I didn't like the idea of run-off from thawing snow pooling in one or two areas. At least with the plastic sheeting I can drill holes and there's less of a chance of snow melting in one place. And I would use Solo cups underneath with holes drilled into the bottom so there would be drainage onto the patio. |

i wonder if you could put hinges on one end so you can just prop it open when need be? |
My only suggestion would be to invest in some of that moulding that's shaped like the corrugated roofing, to nail to the ends of your wooden box. The roofing can crack pretty easily, and using this stuff keeps a lot of the strain off it. |
That actually is a good idea with the sheet of plastic roofing. Light will get to the plants well, and the material is hardier than you would think. I found a site that talks more about these sheets. Some of what I read though was kind of off a bit, but overall, it describes them well. |
Here is a link that might be useful: plastic roofing
What a great idea! If you can make the cover removable, you can use the box for something else. If you can make a box with hinges, it would all fold flat for storage. I was just looking at that plastic corrugated roofing. It is nice stuff. Not sure about putting bricks on it. But that would be a quick start. Maybe you can slant the roof and catch the runoff in something for later use. Lots to think about. Thanks again for the great idea. |

Basically what you are planning to build is a simple cold frame. You may find a lot of useful info if you research building and/or using a cold frame or starting seeds in a cold frame. You will most likely find most of the info targeted to growing vegetables but not all. Good Gardening, Mary |

Easy SQL "If Record Exists, Update It. If Not, Insert It."
A very common scenario is the one where we want to update the information in a record if it already exists in the table, and if it doesn't exist, we want to create a new record with the information.
The most common solution to this problem is using IF EXISTS (subquery). This comes to mind first because it matches how we think about the problem (as you can see by the title of this article!). We say "If the criterion exists in this initial subquery, then I'll do this. If not, I'll do this other thing." This results in a three-step process:
- Do the subquery (SELECT whatever FROM wherever WHERE something).
- Evaluate the EXISTS statement (is it there or not?).
- Execute either the UPDATE or INSERT statement.
Now, let's try an "unnatural" shortcut. I say unnatural because it doesn't follow that "natural" logic occurring in our brain that I mentioned above. Instead, let's just do the update, and if it fails, then we'll do the insert. When the update fails, that just means that no rows were affected, not that an error was thrown. Now we are down to a one-step (if the update succeeds) or two-step process (if we have to insert instead). This is much more efficient!
This is not necessarily a practical example, but let's say that we have a table called "Users" which has three fields: "UserID", "FirstName", and "LastName". If a record already exists with the specified UserID, simply update it with the new @FirstName and @LastName values. If it does not exist, create a new record with those values.
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spAddUserName ( @UserID AS int, @FirstName AS varchar(50), @LastName AS varchar(50) ) AS BEGIN DECLARE @rc int UPDATE [Users] SET FirstName = @FirstName, LastName = @LastName WHERE UserID = @UserID /* how many rows were affected? */ SELECT @rc = @@ROWCOUNT IF @rc = 0 BEGIN INSERT INTO [Users] (FirstName, LastName) VALUES (@FirstName, LastName) END END
View Source Trick for Pages with Partial Rendering
Many people when developing want to look at the browser's View Source to make sure that things are being outputted correctly or to see where in the DOM certain things are showing up. However, if you are using the Ajax concept of partial rendering (usually via UpdatePanels), what you get is the initial state of the page when it was first loaded before any partial page updates, not the state of the page as it is currently.
To see the "current" source for the page, simply paste the following code into your browser's location bar. It's a little long, but it covers most browsers.
Controlling the ASP.NET Timer Control with JavaScript
Have you ever wanted to control your <asp:Timer> control from client-side code?
Let's say you've named your timer 'Timer1'. The first step is to create a reference to this component:
var timer = Sys.Application.findComponent('<%= Timer1.ClientID %>');
Or, better yet, use the $find() shortcut:
var timer = $find('<%= Timer1.ClientID %>');
You can then easily access the timer's interval and enabled properties, as well as start and stop the timer.
//returns the timer's interval in milliseconds: var waitTime = timer.get_interval; //sets the timer's interval to 5000 milliseconds (or 5 seconds): timer.set_interval(5000); //returns whether or not the timer is enabled: var isTimerEnabled = timer.get_enabled(); //disables the timer: timer.set_enabled(false); //starts the timer: timer._startTimer(); //stops the timer: timer._stopTimer();
For the more adventurous of you who would like to look at the client-side behavior code for the Timer control and who elected to download the source code for the AJAX Control Toolkit, you can probably find the .js file at:
Drive:\Program Files\Microsoft ASP.NET\AJAX Control Toolkit\AJAXControlToolkit\Compat\Timer\Timer.js
(If you don't know what you are doing, do not make any changes to this file!)
A Client-side Ajax Login for ASP.NET
A question was posed on the ASP.NET forums recently asking how to have a login control that doesn't refresh the page. The ideal solution would be to just drop an ASP.NET Login control inside an updatepanel. However, the Login control (along with PasswordRecovery, ChangePassword, and CreateUserWizard controls whose contents have not been converted to editable templates) is not supported inside an UpdatePanel. They are just not compatible with partial-page updates.
The ASP.NET AJAX Library does include a proxy class that allows client-side authentication, the Sys.Services.AuthenticationService Class! We can therefore create a very simple and straight-forward "roll-your-own" login solution that does not require a full postback.
Getting Started:
I am going to assume that you have completed all of the normal, necessary steps to allow authentication, but the authentication service is not enabled by default. You must enable it in the web.config file. Add the following to your web.config within the <configuration> section:
<system.web.extensions>  </system.web.extensions>
Next, create two DIVs on your page: one for the "anonymous view" and one for the "logged-in view". Set the the display for both DIVs to 'none'.

 <input id="txtUsername" type="text" />
 <input id="pwdPassword" type="password" />
 <input id="chkRememberMe" type="checkbox" />Remember Me
 <input id="btnLogIn" type="button" value="Log In" />

 Logged in.
 <input id="btnLogOut" type="button" value="Log Out" />

The get_isLoggedIn() property of the class then allows you to show and hide the DIVs appropriately.
var ssa = Sys.Services.AuthenticationService; if (ssa.get_isLoggedIn()) { $get('LoggedInView').style.display = ''; } else { $get('AnonymousView').style.display = ''; }
The Complete Code:
 <form id="form1" runat="server"> <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" />
 <input id="txtUsername" type="text" />
 <input id="pwdPassword" type="password" />
 <input id="chkRememberMe" type="checkbox" />Remember Me
 <input id="btnLogIn" type="button" value="Log In" />

 Logged in.
 <input id="btnLogOut" type="button" value="Log Out" />
 </form>
Comments and Possible Enhancements:
- There will always be a page refresh on logout. This is necessary to ensure that any user-specific information is cleared from the page.
- You can place the two DIVs inside a third DIV and style that, thus showing a consistant style (width, height, border, etc.) for both child DIVs.
- You will have probably noticed that there is a redirectUrl parameter for both the login() and logout() methods. This, along with querystring parameters, could easily be adapted to create a login page that users are redirected to for authentication and redirected from once logged in.
