Hi I want to create sidebar in Firefox 3 but have no clue how to do this.
I find tutorial on MDC (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Creating_a_Firefox_sidebar) but after installation extension do not work with "not compatible with Firefox 3.0.3" error.
Does anybody have any tip or link to some resource about how to make sidebar?
Well, a Firefox extension, be it a sidebar, toolbar or whatever other type of extension is basically a mix of XUL and Javascript, all packaged nice and tidy into an installer package called an XPI.
For an excelent XUL tutorial see http://xulplanet.mozdev.org/tutorials/xultu/.
For information about building extensions and the package format see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Building_an_Extension.
For a sidebar you basically have to override the browser's sidebar area by using an overlay. For good overlay information check out MDC and the excerpt at http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/mozilla/excerpt/FirefoxHacks_chap01/.
All you need except the links above is knowledge of XML, some Javascript and a creative mind.
To fix the problem you faced above, you have to specify the correct version of Firefox in the install.rdf file. For Firefox 3 set maxVersion to:
<em:maxVersion>3.*</em:maxVersion>

Hi I am looking for a split screen IDE for elm. Just an editor on one side and a browser on the other running elm-reactor. I know I can position vi running in a text window and a browser in the other window, but this takes time and is fiddly, I am always having to adjust and find these screens after watching a video. Is there a nice simple IDE that I can start up to do this. The online try elm site is good (http://elm-lang.org/try), but I loose my code when I leave the web site. Ideally I'd like to run elm-reactor with an online editor locally on my machine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
There is an Elm Plug-in for LightTable that you may like. The demo shows that you can have tabs for editing code and tabs for running the web browser, all within the LightTable IDE.
You could also set up the Atom editor to run a web browser in a separate tab. There is an Atom Elm Plugin which will give you syntax highlighting and Elm Oracle support.
There are a few online editors but these are really only good for small bits of Elm code, useful for testing and sharing small ideas, but not much else.
Ellie - This allows the import of any public package, editing the html which wraps an Elm example, and links and forks of examples.
elm-lang.org/try - As you mentioned, this does not allow sharing of code. It does, however, include a few non-core packages like StartApp
share-elm.com - This site is now defunct This site has the benefit of being able to save code for sharing, or for loading gists. However, as of 2016-01-20, this has not been updated to Elm version 0.16, and it only allows you to import core libraries.
I would be remiss if I didn't mention ElmCast's elm-vim plugin for Vim, and elm-mode for Emacs, both of which offer syntax highlighting and Elm Oracle support, as well as integration with Elm build tools. They don't have a built-in web browser, but with a little configuration, you can certainly streamline your workflow.
...and there is an Elm Plugin for the sophisticated IDEs from Jetbrains like IntelliJ, WebStorm etc.
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8192-elm-language-plugin
Most of them are commercial software but there is an open source edition from IntelliJ: IntelliJ Community Edition and also free licenses for education and OSS projects.
For just writing Elm I like Atom Editor with the plugins language-elm, elm-oracle and linter-elm-make.
I really like the elm packages for vscode.
With them it is easy to get auto-complete, and auto-formanting/compilation on save, with compile errors displayed on the code.
I've got a simple application using WebKitGTK 1.6.0 that simply displays a webpage in a window.
When I browse a page using it that contains an Ogg/Theora video and HTML5 video element it appears this simple application is using some mozilla plugins and even xulrunner. Can somebody tell me why this is?
Here is a list of files open by the program using lsof.
I built WebKitGTK 1.6.0 and most of it's dependencies from source including gstreamer-0.10 and the gstreamer plugins. No where do I recall configuring WebKitGTK to using any mozilla plugins or xulrunner.
What might be causing the mozilla plugins, libtotem and xulrunner to be loaded? I provided the link to the files the application is using in hopes that it might provide a clue.
Lol, found the reason. I have FireFox, totem and totem-mozplugin installed on my system. Once I removed totem and totem-mozplugin, WebKitGTK used the appropriate Gstreamer plugins to render the video and audio.
I've used the dojo framework in websites with good results, and I'm trying to use it in my bottle templates with no luck. I'm loading the claro theme and the dojo javascript from the hosted version on google. None of my dijits are showing up, though. Am I unable to use external libraries with Bottle, or am I missing something basic?
Yes you can use external libraries with Bottle. Check your HTML if you have problems. If you're missing a closing tag, for example, things don't work as expected.
I'm searching for a good PDF viewer for Joomla, the problem is when there is a module in an article all the PDF viewers I tried so far show: {loadposition myposition} in place of that module.
Does anybody know a PDF viewer that will show the module.
I would also like it to have a header and footer option.
Thx.
I suspect that your extensions 'might' not be the sole source of your troubles.
Have you installed "Modules Anywhere" from nonumber.nl?
I recommend you try that first before assuming that the problem lies in your extensions.
Here is the appropriate link: http://www.nonumber.nl/extensions/modulesanywhere
Install it, and make sure the editor plugin is also installed and enabled (Modules Anywhere may perform these steps upon installation), then open up the content item you wish to inject your module into and use the module selection tool provided to you by the editor plugin.
After you perform this test, you can more reliably assume that your PDF related modules are the culprits.
Good luck!
I have downloaded Pharo 1.2.2 #12353 and wanted to install some packages in a easier way than going through Monticello Browser. I do not want to copy and paste scripts to install packages. After I opened the Menu, Tools, Configuration Browser a new window is shown with 3 ConfigurationOf...
ConfigurationOfFFI
ConfigurationOfMagma
ConfigurationOfVistaCursors
There is no help or description of what's the purpose of the Configuration Browser. What's one supposed to do with that?
there is no way to select a repository of configurations
there is no menu option to add a ConfigurationOf
there is no way to browse the Configurations from that window
Besides, is that the right tool to browse a "Metacello Repository" like http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository.html ?
There is a custom browser to Metacello? Why isn't included in the release by default?
You can give MetacelloBrowser a try. It is aimed at providing a Metacello-centric interface for managing your project. The browser is still in development, but can be used for many tasks quite nicely.
If you decide to take it for a spin, please submit any issues here. Join the Metacello mailing list if you have any questions or comments.

Please report an issue about the Configuration Browser at http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/list and post your difficulties to the Pharo list. I played with the tool too and couldn't understand it either.
see
http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/pharo-project/2011-December/057409.html
and for its origins:
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=2752
The ideas is that we have an own Squeaksource repo (universe) for a
specific Pharo version where we have a copy all the ConfigurationOfXXX
that are known to work in this specific Pharo version.
Since nobody (yet) mainted the one for Pharo 1.3 the browser is just empty.
I will try to find the time to fill the repo for Pharo 1.3
