what is networking essentials and what is really involved in networking essentials? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaelchawiya (talk • contribs) 09:14, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

:This sounds like a homework question. Please see {{tl|dyoh}} 82.43.89.71 (talk) 10:31, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Would it be possible to use php to convert a folder full of htm files to mhtml? 82.43.89.71 (talk) 15:22, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

:Yes, but it might be difficult to do from scratch. PEAR, which you can get [http://pear.php.net/ from the official PHP distribution site], will greatly assist you with this task. I think there's a Base-64 PEAR utility, and there is [http://pear.php.net/package/Mail_Mime Mail_Mime] that can easily create and work with MIME encoding and decoding. Nimur (talk) 16:24, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

::Also, I may be jumping the gun on this one, but it seems like you're converting to mhtml to allow some sort of code execution that htm does not allow (obviously). Instead of converting all the files to mhtml, you can add an 'AddType' declaration to your web server's configuration that will parse htm's as mhtml's--rocketrye12 ^{talk/contribs} 22:33, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

applicable version of this License or the recipients'
rights hereunder. You may choose to offer, and to charge a
fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Software.
However, you may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on
behalf of the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You

right to modify this License.
4.2. Effect of New Versions.
You may always continue to use, distribute or otherwise
make the Covered Software available under the terms of the
version of the License under which You originally received
the Covered Software. If the Initial Developer includes a
notice in the Original Software prohibiting it from being
distributed or otherwise made available under any
subsequent version of the License, You must distribute and
make the Covered Software available under the terms of the
version of the License under which You originally received
the Covered Software. Otherwise, You may also choose to
use, distribute or otherwise make the Covered Software
available under the terms of any subsequent version of
License published by the license steward.
4.3. Modified Versions.
When You are an Initial Developer and You want to create a
new license for Your Original Software, You may create and

BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED
SOFTWARE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED SOFTWARE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY
COVERED SOFTWARE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE
INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF
ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF
WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF
ANY COVERED SOFTWARE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS
DISCLAIMER.
6. TERMINATION.
6.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder wi
terminate automatically if You fail to comply with terms
herein and fail to cure such breach within 30 days of
becoming aware of the breach. Provisions which, by their
nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of
this License shall survive.
6.2. If You assert a patent infringement claim (excluding
declaratory judgment actions) against Initial Developer or
a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against
whom You assert such claim is referred to as "Participant")
alleging that the Participant Software (meaning the
Contributor Version where the Participant is a Contributor
or the Original Software where the Participant is the
Initial Developer) directly or indirectly infringes any
patent, then any and all rights granted directly or
indirectly to You by such Participant, the Initial
Developer (if the Initial Developer is not the Participant)
and all Contributors under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this
License shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant
terminate prospectively and automatically at the expiration
of such 60 day notice period, unless if within such 60 day
period You withdraw Your claim with respect to the

unilaterally or pursuant to a written agreement with
Participant.
6.3. In the event of termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2
above, all end user licenses that have been validly granted
by You or any distributor hereunder prior to termination

(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE
INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF
COVERED SOFTWARE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE
LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK
STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN
INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL
INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT
APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO
NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU.
8. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
The Covered Software is a "commercial item," as that term is
defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial
computer software" (as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. $
252.227-7014(a)(1)) and "commercial computer software
documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept.
1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1
through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users
acquire Covered Software with only those rights set forth herein.
This U.S. Government Rights clause is in lieu of, and supersedes,
any other FAR, DFAR, or other clause or provision that addresses
Government rights in computer software under this License.
9. MISCELLANEOUS.
This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject
matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the
extent necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be
governed by the law of the jurisdiction specified in a notice
contained within the Original Software (except to the extent
applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding such
jurisdiction's conflict-of-law provisions. Any litigation
relating to this License shall be subject to the jurisdiction of
the courts located in the jurisdiction and venue specified in a
notice contained within the Original Software, with the losing
party responsible for costs, including, without limitation, court
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. The
application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or
regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall
be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this License.
You agree that You alone are responsible for compliance with the
United States export administration regulations (and the export
control laws and regulation of any other countries) when You use,
distribute or otherwise make available any Covered Software.
10. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is
responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or
indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this License
and You agree to work with Initial Developer and Contributors to
distribute such responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing
herein is intended or shall be deemed to constitute any admission
of liability.

How would I go about if I wanted to remove the tag

I think I could come up with a RegEx for that, but my gut feeling is that I shouldn't use RegExes in an XML document. However, I've never manipulated XML files before, so I'm not sure what the beginner-friendly options are (there's a whole manure-load of XML-related modules on CPAN). Ideally, I'd like to use a module that is part of the standard Ubuntu Hardy Heron release, or at least has a .deb package in a standard repository. -- 78.43.60.58 (talk) 16:50, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

: I can't help you with Perl, but doing it in Python (with the BeautifulSoup XML processor) is straightforward:

1. !/usr/bin/python

from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup

soup = BeautifulSoup("""

""")

for x in soup('disabled'): x.replaceWith('')

print soup

: I'm sure Perl will have any number of equivalent libraries. -- Finlay McWalter • Talk 18:05, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

::I don't really know python, but what you posted looks like you're simply removing all occurences of "disabled", which is not what I want. -- 78.43.60.58 (talk) 17:50, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

:Hopefully you have a perl DOM-parser for XML? You need to find a node with the name "something" (possibly with some defined attributes), and remove any _child_ tags named "disabled". Take a look at http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/ENNO/libxml-enno-1.00/html/XML/DOM.html , then check out for example XML::DOM::Node->removeChild() Hope you can figure out the rest. Jedku (talk) 23:26, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

I have a Dell Inspiron I bought last year. I forgot which model # but now when I surf the internet, it freezes after 15 min. no matter where I am. I do have McAfee Total Protection and I almost run the Spybot daily. What can I do to fix this? --Reticuli88 (talk) 19:39, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

:Some questions: What version of Windows are you running? What browser do you use? Do you use wired or wireless networking? Have you tried using a different Web browser instead? Does the computer freeze after 15 minutes even if you don't have a Web browser open? Comet Tuttle (talk) 20:42, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

:The laptop could be overheating. Press F2 during startup to access BIOS and check the temperature of the parts inside your computer (viz. the CPU). Also check the event log for errors: Go to Start --> Run... and type eventvwr.msc. Also check the device manager (right-click on My Computer --> Manage --> Device Manager) for driver issues.--Best Dog Ever (talk) 21:28, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Windows Vista, Mozilla, wireless, no I haven't, I haven't tried that yet --Reticuli88 (talk) 00:35, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Best Dog Ever: What do I do after I access BIOS and check the temp? --Reticuli88 (talk) 00:36, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

:Write down the temperatures and Google them. Sorry, but each CPU and motherboard has a different maximum temperature, so it really depends on the make and model of the CPU in your laptop. Some BIOS versions don't show the temperatures, though.--Best Dog Ever (talk) 01:44, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

I get "Error Code 0142. Error code 2000-0142. Hard Drive 0 - self test unsuccessful status: 79 --24.218.203.121 (talk) 01:19, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

:It could be a failing hard drive. Did you buy the laptop when it was new or used? A model number would help, too.--Best Dog Ever (talk) 01:44, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

::Yes, a new hard disk is the only thing that seems worth trying at this point. Comet Tuttle (talk) 05:10, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

How can a whole history's worth of article revisions turned into plain text and have the wiki markup deleted? MarkkuP (talk) 21:32, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

My computer can play Blu-ray, but it has a (noticable) skip. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, so that I may try to rectify the issue?

Specs

Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 (2.2 GHz, 2MB L2)

6GB DDR2 800

500GB HDD, ~70% full

Radeon HD3650 (1GB DDR2)

Gigabyte Mobo

Internal BD-ROM (I think it's 4X)

Thanks. If I left something out, ask. Mxvxnyxvxn (talk) 21:36, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

:What software are you using to play it? 82.43.89.71 (talk) 21:39, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

::The included PowerDVD (Came with the drive.) Mxvxnyxvxn (talk) 05:10, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

:That PC spec can certainly handle bluray. I managed to get bluray playback working perfectly with the free player Media Player Classic (you will have to open the VOB? files individually though). This was years ago in the early days of bluray however; I'm sure bluray playback on PCs has come a long way since then. I remember I had to install Nvidia Pure Video so I'm not sure if there's an equivalent for ATI. You can also investigate the Matroska Splitter drivers for HD playback. I stopped caring when I bought a PS3 but that's cheating... Sandman30s (talk) 19:53, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

::Is your virus scanner checking out the contents of the disk? Also have you got the hardware acceleration turned on? Is you computer doing anything else at the same time? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:13, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

:::Near as I can tell, nothing else. I turned off iTunes helper and it played smoother. I'll try these suggestions. Mxvxnyxvxn (talk) 02:29, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
