The index page to my site uses a slow acting javascript drop down menu. When
a user drops down a menu , selects a link and then uses the back button or
"Home" link to return to the original page, I don't want the page to
refresh, leaving the navigation menu as it was after the user clicked.
Possible? or is frames the answer?

Why?
I know as a user, that would confuse the hell out of me.
Frames are almost never the answer to anything. Not only do they mess
things up when the user tries to refresh, search engines have a hard
time indexing your site, users who come in through engines don't get the
frameset, etc, etc.
Don't use frames unless you're willing to take the time to code around
the problems, and even then, you might want to not use them anyway.

Dear ciwah,
I'm in the process of designing a German school web site, and I need the

I wrote the navigation (CSS based, no javascript), which looks OK in IE,
Firefox and Opera.
Now I would like to place a picture at the outer right side of the
navigation bar, and this is where it gets tricky. I experimented with a
div container, I tried using a layer, but the design always turned out

I created a form with a subform using the Access 2000 Forms Wizard.
Both the form and the subform have their individual standard
navigation bars with the minimum buttons (First, Prev, etc).
My question is can you customize these navigation bars? I would like
to add the New Record, Delete, etc. functionalities.
I note that the Data Access Pages do have the navigation bar visible
in design mode, but the Forms don't, so how do you do it?

Hi.
Why is it practical to have the ASP.NET navigation controls based on
XML? I would love to just use databinding and then be able to
dynamically update the navgiation menu (e.g. for a product list).
I tried to use a dropdownlist with hyperlinks for navigation (not the
main navigation -- a navigation subset) and even a listbox, but found
it very cumbersome.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
