I have to add a date column to a db2/zos table with a blob column. Can I rename the blob table to old, create a new table with the date column, then insert/select the data from the old table? Do I have to select data from the main table and the aux table or is the aux table done automatically? What's the best way to handle this?

I could use your help. I need to add tooltips to each column of an HTML table, for the entire column of cells. I want to add a single element to the table, and have that one element represent the tooltip for all the cells in the column. I'm doing the brute-force method right now of adding a tooltip to every <tdin the table. The problem there is that the HTML is ballooning in size as a result (see an example below). Any ideas,...

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.
