Shortcuts fail silently ... another "gift" from Internet Explorer 7

I've seen several problems cropping up on computers with Internet
Explorer 7. The oddest so far: Shortcuts to .mdb files fail silently
when another user on the network has the file open.

The more typical manifestation of the problem: You try to open a
Microsoft Access file that resides on a different computer, and are
told:

'Microsoft Access cannot open this file.

This file is located outside your intranet or on an untrusted
site.
Microsoft Access will not open the file due to potential
security
problems."
The fix in both instances:

In Internet Explorer, choose Tools Internet Options.
Then click the "Security" tab. Select the "Local intranet" zone.
Click the "Sites" button. Clear the checkbox for
"Automatica lly detect intranet network".

It was serendipity that helped me troubleshoot this problem, making me
a minor-league hero to two clients one morning. Hopefully this
posting will help bestow hero status on some of you other designers
out there!

I see some code examples like this: <DIV onmouseover="this.style.background='blue'"> and other code examples like this: <DIV onmouseover="javascript:this.style.background='blue'"> Which way is more proper? Or are both ways perfectly fine? Are there any specifications that discuss when "javascript:" should be put in front of code?

Good News! Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this life has ended? Some people believe that belonging to a local church, temple, mosque or synagogue will get them to Heaven.

I purchased "Pointers on C" online and just received the book. The pages look like they have been poorly photocopied, not the quality I would expect from a $73 book. My question is, to those that have the book, is your copy the same or was I hood-winked? Yes, I know this is off-topic but I thought it would be the best place to ask since I know people here have the book. Thanks,

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
