Are you using grid layout? This uses absolute positioning, and would result
in overlaps. If you switch to flow layout, then the datagrid objects should
follow each other as you would expect.

Check out the generated HTML code to see if there are absolute positioning
attributes, and if so, clear them out. (I don't know if the designer will go
back and change existing elements when you switch the design for the form.)

With the re/sre module included with Python 2.4: pattern = "(?P<id1>avi)|(?P<id2>avi|mp3)" string2match = "some string with avi in it" matches = re.finditer(pattern, string2match) .... matches.groupdict() {'id2': None, 'id1': 'avi'} Which was expected since overlapping matches are ignored.

Hello all, I'm learning C and I still am struggling to understand some basic concepts. For example, I read in the standard that with functions such as strcpy, 'If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.' But how can I be sure that they don't overlap? For example, if I write this: char string1 = "overlap";
